Patent EP-0317472-A2 (EP)
Inventor: CURTIN JAMES JOSEPH
IPC: G06F11/20
Filed: 1988-09-27
Abstract: A logic redundancy circuit scheme, comprising a plurality of pairs of logic circuit groups, each logic circuit group in a given pair having a respective logic node and a respective power control line, with each logic circuit group in a given pair generating substantially the same logic function signal on its respective logic node as the other logic circuit group in the given pair generates on its respective logic node. The circuit scheme further includes a plurality of isolation circuits having respective output nodes, with a different isolation circuit connected to each different logic circuit group logic node. These isolation circuits are powered at all times and each operates to provide an output signal on its output node indicative of the signal on the logic node connected thereto, while isolating the connected logic node from nets connected to the isolation circuit output node. The circuit scheme also includes means for electrically connecting together for bidirectional communication the logic nodes for each pair of logic circuit groups, prior to the connection to the isolation circuit associated therewith, and switching means connected to each of the power control lines associated with the plurality of pairs of logic circuit groups for providing power to one and only one logic circuit group in each pair of logic circuit groups. The circuit scheme also includes means for controlling, through the electrically connecting means,the logic state at the isolation circuit output node of the logic circuit group in a given pair of logic circuit groups, which is not powered, to have the same logic state as the isolation circuit output node of the logic circuit group in the given pair of logic circuit groups which is powered by the switching means, so that both isolation circuit output nodes in the pair provide a correct logic signal.

Abstract: An in vivo method for preparing, inserting, isolating, collecting and assaying diagnostic ligates present in body fluids. Magnetically responsive particles with attached ligands specific for a particular ligate are introduced into the body fluid. Bonding between the ligand and ligate results in particle/ligand/ligate complexes. The complexes are removed by the application of a magnetic field and the complexes are permitted to cluster. The clusters are then quantitated to determine the concentration of the ligate in the body fluid. Associated materials and devices useful in the practice of this method are also provided.

Abstract: A digital signal magnetic recording and playback apparatus which is applicable to digital video signals, utilizes quadrature amplitude modulation to produce a recording signal (S R ) from a digital input signal (S D ), with a carrier frequency being employed which is less than or equal to than the frequency of a recording system clock signal that is synchronized with the successive data values of the digital input signal. Carrier bursts are periodically inserted into the recording signal with a fixed period, through data inserted by a burst data insertion circuit (3), and the carrier and clock signal are arranged to periodically coincide in phase, with the aforementioned period. The carrier frequency is made equal to the clock frequency multiplied by a factor (n/m), where n and m are integers and n < m. During playback, time information obtained from the bursts is used to mutally phase-­relate recovered clock and carrier signals.

Abstract: A magneto-strictive torque sensor for electrically contactlessly detecting a torque applied to a rotary shaft on the basis of a resulting change in the magnetic permeability of the surface of the shaft. Fine dents and retainer areas for retaining residual compressive stress due to the fine dents are formed on the surface of the rotary shaft. According to this arrangement, the process of magnetization resulting from the application of an exciting magnetic field and of the torque to the rotary shaft involves less magnetization due to magnetic domain wall displacement and consists principally of reversible magnetic rotation, with the result of reduced hysteresis in the magnetization process. The reduced hysteresis causes less hysteresis involved in torque detection and higher detection sensitivity, thus rusulting in high accuracy of torque detection. Further, by working the surface of the rotary shaft for the purpose of forming the fine dents thereon, microdefects present on the surface layer of the rotary shaft are reduced or eliminated and thus reduced hysteresis and improved sensitivity can be attained in the process of torque detection.

Abstract: A data buffer includes parallel and serial data ports connected to one or more equipment modules that produce output data or respond to input commands. The data buffer also includes a serial control port communicating with a host computer. The data buffer receives and stores output data from the equipment modules via the data ports. The buffer configures each data port to match the data transfer protocol (baud rate, parity checking etc.) of the equipment module to which it is connected in response to input commands transmitted from the host computer via the control port. The host computer may also command the buffer to immediately route incoming data on one data port outward on one or more other selected data or control ports or to store incoming data for later transmission via a selected port in response to an input command. The host computer may additionally command the buffer to periodically transmit a stored data string outward on one or more designated data ports. The data buffer also includes a real time clock producing data indicating current time and date. When the data buffer detects a state change in an input bit at a parallel port, it generates an indicating message including the bit state along with the current time and date and forwards the message to the host computer.

Abstract: A central processing unit has a set of queues in data and control paths between an instruction unit and an execution unit. The queues include a fork queue, a source queue, a destination queue, and a program counter queue. The fork queue contains an entry of control information for each instruction processed by the instruction unit. This control information corresponds to the opcode for the instruction. The source queue specifies the source operands for the instruction. The destination queue specifies the destination for the instruction. The program counter queue contains the starting value of the program counter for each of the instructions passed from the instruction unit to the execution unit. The queues shield the execution unit and the instruction unit from each other's complexities and provide a buffer to allow for an uneven processing rate in either of them.

Abstract: In isolated operation or operation in parallel with the system in the case of known wind-power installations comprising a wind turbine or the like and a capacitor-excited asynchronous generator drivable by the wind turbine, a capacitor bank for excitation build-up or improvement of the efficiency is connected only after start-up. In order to make better use even of short wind surges, it is proposed that the exciter capacitor bank connected constantly in parallel with the output terminals of the asynchronous generator be of a size such that the capacitive exciter reactive power at the nominal working point is approximately twice as large as the total power of the asynchronous generator. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In the case of such an air drier a connectable regenerating device is assigned to a drying cartridge (3) containing a drying agent (7); by means of this the drying agent located in the drying cartridge (3) is regenerated, that is by means of the compressed air from the compressed air system the damp drying agent is passed through and the bound water extracted from this before it passes out into the open air preferably via a ring filter and an exhaust valve. The regenerating device has a timed switch which can be switched on by the control pressure of a pressure regulator preferably incorporated on the device in order to initiate regeneration at pre-determined time intervals. The switch (45) contains a piston (43) to which compressed air can be admitted when the control pressure of the pressure regulator is reached, which piston, as a function of a link motion in predetermined stages and by means of a valve plunger (59) opens a connection which allows the compressed air to flow back out of the compressed air system through the drying agent (7) in the drying cartridge (3). The piston (43) acts in concert with a connecting member rotatable according to the piston movement, which member in a predetermined angular position carries the valve plunger (59) with it, thereby opening the connection for initiation of the regeneration. <IMAGE>
