Patent EP-0831581-A2 (EP)
Inventor: MUSHIKA YOSHIHIRO
IPC: H02P8/38
Filed: 1997-09-18
Abstract: The stepping motor controller of the present
invention includes: a stepping motor including a rotor
and an excitation coil; a drive section for supplying
multiple-stage drive current to the excitation coil in
response to an input command value, thereby enabling a
micro step drive; a control section for controlling the
stepping motor by varying the command value to be provided
for the drive section; and a position detection
control section for generating a detection signal in
accordance with a rotation position of the rotor. The
control section switches two operation modes of a first
operation mode and a second operation mode, the control
section varies the command value to be provided for the
drive section based on a timing generated by the control
section itself in the first operation mode, and the
control section varies the command value to be provided
for the drive section based on a timing corresponding to
the detection signal generated by the position detection
control section in the second operation mode, thereby
controlling the stepping motor. The control section
switches the two operation modes during a series of
transportation operations for transporting the stepping
motor from a start position to a target position, and the
control section makes the stepping motor perform a coarse
operation in the second operation mode and then switches
the second operation mode into the first operation mode,
thereby performing a micro step drive.

Abstract: A method of selectively recording one of plural
kinds of video signals having different frame (field) rate
and the accompanied sound signal is disclosed. The method
comprises the steps of: converting one of plural kinds of
video signals and the sound signal into another digital
signal; generating the error check codes from the digital
signal; recording the digital signal and the generated
error check codes on a recording medium, wherein one of a
plural kinds of video signals and the digital sound signal
are converted and the error check codes are generated to
have the same data rate between the plural kinds of video
signals to form the same M tracks (sectors) for the same
interval on the recording medium between the plural of
kinds of digital video signals. The error check codes are
generated every N tracks (sectors), the M being natural
number more than one, N being a divisor of the M. Sequence
number data is generated and recorded on the recording
medium together with the another digital signal and the
generated error check codes every track (sector). A step
of variable-length-coding one of plural kinds of digital
video signals and the sound signal to have a predetermined
group of picture structure may be further provided.

Abstract: The device entails beam installed on platform, pivotable over a platform edge and having a suspension device for a mobile body. At the free extending end of the beam (15) two pendulums (16,17) are pivotably arranged one behind the other spaced apart in the longitudinal direction of the beam. A suspension device (18) is fixed at the ends of both pendulums remote from the beam, which is formed in a self-releasing manner dependent upon its pivot position at the pendulum ends. On the suspension device is fixed an end-side fixed tow rope, with which the pivot position of the suspension device is fixable for self release. The beam-side fixture points (20,21) of the pendulums have the same distance from one another as the fixture points (22,23) of the pendulums on the suspension device. The two pendulums are of equal length.

Abstract: A spacecraft electronics equipment module that is structurally and thermally
independent of a core spacecraft structure to which it can be mounted. The module takes the form
of a thermal radiation panel on which electronic components are directly mounted. The panel is
attachable to the core structure using a statically determinate mount that renders the module
structurally and thermally independent of the core structure. A combination of mounting brackets
and struts secures the module from translational movement in all three axes, but permits thermal
expansion and contraction in the plane of the panel without transferring any thermally induced
forces to the core structure. A radiation shield secured over the electronics components also serves
to further stiffen the panel and to enhance thermal conduction into the panel, which can radiate
heat from both faces. Heat pipes can be attached to the panel to further enhance distribution of
heat across the panel.

Abstract: A system detects cut-out of brakes on a train in a safe manner.
Each vehicle in the train has at least one truck. Each truck has
brakes which may be cut-out via a cut-out cock. A frequency
generator generates a signal at a predesignated frequency. This
signal is conveyed from a first vehicle in the train to a last
vehicle in the train along a feed line and from the last vehicle to
the first vehicle along a return line. Each cut-out cock assumes
an open position wherein the brakes of its truck are cut-in or a
closed position wherein the brakes of its truck are cut-out. Each
cut-out cock features a switch in series with the return line that
closes when its cutout cock assumes the open position or opens when
its cutout cock assumes the closed position. A frequency divider
for each switch connects in parallel therewith. When the switch is
closed, the signal passes through the switch wherein division of
frequency is avoided. When the switch is open, the signal passes
through the frequency divider wherein division of frequency by a
preset value occurs. A detector determines the resulting frequency
of the signal returned to the first vehicle on the return line
because the signal as it conducted along the return line had its
frequency divided each time it passed through one of the frequency
dividers. This enables the system to determine the number of
trucks whose brakes are cut-out on the train.

Abstract: The solar collector uses an intermediary of a sealing device so that a disc (3) locates on the trough (1) edge (2) and is penetrable to radiation. The sealing device is a sealing strip (5) of a closed cell plastic material. It is doubly adhesive and on its outside is surrounded by a comparatively hard elastic seal (6). On the outside, the comparatively hard elastic seal is surrounded by a plastic seal (7) which melts with rising temperature. The inner soft elastic seal, which extends on the edge between that and the side wall (10) of the trough prevents a direct contact between the cover disc and the trough. The outer elastic and finally melting seal provides a reliable sealing effect when as the result of a bending of the cover disc in the centre inwards its outer edge becomes removed from the edge of the trough.

commodity key (5b), sales data of a commodity having a
commodity code related to the commodity key (5b) by a key
layout memory (3-1) is registered. The registered sales
information of each commodity can be printed out or
displayed. If it is designated that a specific commodity
is set so that its code is related to the commodity key
during the sales registering processing, the commodity
code related to the commodity key is replaced by the
specific commodity code. After this registration, the

The cartridge execution engine (228, 232, 236) handles all inter-machine communication with the dispatchers (214, 220, 226), and passes the requests to the cartridges (230, 234, 238) by making calls into the application programming interface of the cartridge. Consequently, cartridges are isolated from the complexities of inter-machine communication, and may therefore be used in a highly distributed system without being distribution-aware.
