Patent EP-1020330-A2 (EP)
Inventor: DOWNS STUART G
IPC: B60R16/02
Filed: 2000-01-12
Abstract: A steering wheel control system (10) that employs a method for passing push-button commands from a steering wheel to a vehicle system, wherein the method is not dependant upon the contact resistance of a sliding contact (32) located in the steering wheel column. The control system (10) includes a constant current source circuit (20) that generates a unique constant current corresponding to each command. The sliding contact (32) passes the constant current between the steering wheel and the vehicle system, and a calibrated resistance circuit (40) converts the unique constant current into a discrete voltage. The discrete voltage is also converted into a digital signal for use by a microcontroller (60) to activate the vehicle systems. The use of constant currents therefore avoids operational problems associated with decreases in the overall system noise margin due to large voltage drops across the sliding contact (32). Furthermore, the use of off-the-shelf constant current generation and conversion components allows for an overall reduction in system cost and increase in system reliability.

Abstract: The method involves transmitting a request for a control software for the feature control to a central arrangement in the data communication network in response to an instruction for the implementation of the feature control, processed in a communication terminal. The control software is transmitted by the central arrangement to the communication terminal, and is stored in it temporarily.  The feature control is executed in the communications terminal through processing of the control software. The instruction for the implementation of the feature control is preferably entered in the communication terminal as a signalling message from a remote terminal point of the network, whereby this remote terminal point transmits also the request for the control software for the feature control to the central arrangement in the network.

Abstract: There is disclosed a ceramics composition mainly
comprising Ba-based glass and α quartz. The content of Ba-based
glass is in a range of 55.0 to 69.4 wt%, the content of
α quartz is in a range of 12.1 to 40.2 wt%, and the content
of Al 2 O 3  is 24.5 wt% or less. For the components of Ba-based
glass, in terms of oxides, the content of BaO is in a range
of 19 to 29 mol%, the content of SiO 2  is in a range of 62 to
72 mol%, the content of Al 2 O 3  is in a range of 6 to 11 mol%,
and the content of B 2 O 3  per the total of 100 mol of BaO, SiO 2 
and Al 2 O 3  is in a range of 3 to 7 mol. Therefore, the
sintering can be performed at a temperature equal to or less
than the melting point of Ag, Cu, or an alloy mainly
containing Ag or Cu, dielectric constant is low, but linear
expansion coefficient is high, and the co-firing can be
realized with other dielectric material and magnetic material
which can be sintered at a low temperature.

IPC: A47J37/08
Filed: 2000-05-05
Abstract: A switching mechanism is utilized in a heating appliance, such as a
toaster, that includes a bread support that supports a food item to insert and remove the
food item from a cooking cavity of the appliance. The appliance includes an
electronic circuit that controls operation during a heating cycle. The switching
mechanism includes a switch having a first terminal adapted to receive a power signal
and a second terminal coupled to the electronic circuit. The switch operates
responsive to an applied switching force to couple the first terminal to the second
terminal and thereby apply power to the electronic circuit. A switch actuator has a
first end, a second end, and a retaining member near the second end. The second end
is attached to the appliance to rotate about an axis. The switch actuator operates
responsive to a force being applied to the bread support to rotate about the axis to a
first position and apply the switching force to the switch so power is applied to the
electronic circuit. A retaining force is applied to the first end of the actuator to secure
the actuator in the first position responsive to power being applied to the electronic
circuit and the retaining member engages the bread support to hold the bread support
with the food item positioned in the cooking cavity when the actuator is in the first
position. The switch actuator operates responsive to the retaining force being removed
to rotate about the axis to remove the switching force and thereby remove power from
the electronic circuit to terminate the heating cycle. Various other aspects of the
present invention are directed, for example, to contacts formed on a printed circuit
board and switch blades formed separate from the printed circuit board, heat-staking
of the switch blades, and crimp derails on the switch blades that eliminates the need
for wire terminals.

Abstract: A rotary shaft (20) is inserted to a tank (12) through a hole (22) formed in
a wall of the tank (12). A casing (30) is provided outside the tank (12), and the
rotary shaft (20) is supported by a bearing (76) arranged in the casing (30). The
casing (30) is watertightly connected to the wall including the hole (22) through
a flexible joint (34). Seal members (50, 52, 60) are arranged in the casing (30)
to seal the clearance (22a) between the rotary shaft (20) and the casing (30). A
sleeve (64) is fitted on the rotary shaft (20) so that the sleeve (64) is watertightly
in contact with at least one of the seal members (50, 52, 60), and the sleeve (64)
can be moved along the rotary shaft (20) to change the seal member (50, 52, 60)
in contact with the sleeve (64). The bearing (76) and the seal member (50, 52,
60) are not affected by the deformation of the tank (12) since the flexible joint
(34) connects the tank (12) and the casing (30), and the rotary shaft (20) can
rotate smoothly while securing high sealing quality. The alignment of the axes
of the bearing (76) and the hole (22) in the tank (12) can be easy since the
bearing (76) is provided outside of the tank (12), and thus assembly and
maintenance of the structure are easy. The tank (12) can have relatively low
strength since the tank (12) has not to support the rotary shaft (20) with the
bearing (76); thus the structure can be compact and the cost can be reduced.

Abstract: In a first embodiment of an optical switch (10 having at least one dual axis micromirror (22, 26 and 28; 50; and 90), the micromirror is manipulated about two generally perpendicular axes by varying voltage patterns along two electrostatic arrangements. The two electrostatic arrangements may be formed to independently drive two movers (76 and 78; 96 and 98), or may be formed to control a mover that is displaceable in two directions. The micromirrors and the movers that control the micromirrors may be integrated onto a single substrate (92). Alternatively, the micromirrors may be formed on a substrate (52) that is attached to the substrate (64) that includes the mover or movers. In a second embodiment of an optical switch in accordance with the invention, the switch includes two collimator arrays (12 and 14) and two dual axis micromirror arrays (16 and 18). Each first micromirror in the first micromirror array is dedicated to one of the collimators in the first collimator array. Similarly, each second micromirror of the second micromirror array is dedicated to one of the collimators of the second collimator array. By manipulating a first micromirror, an input signal from the associated first collimator can be reflected to any of the second micromirrors. By manipulating the second micromirror that receives the signal, the signal can be precisely positioned on the second collimator that is associated with the second micromirror.
