Abstract: A method of preventing sudden inadvertent operation of a motor of a tool or appliance when the motor is initially electrically connected to a power source While an On/Off switch for controlling the motor is in a closed position. The method includes electrically connecting the motor (18) to a power source and determining a position of the On/Off switch when the motor is initially electrically connected to the power source. The position of the On/Off switch is determined by either sensing whether current is flowing through the motor or voltage is present at the motor when the motor is initially connected to the power source.

Abstract: While a biped walking mobile body is in a motion, such as level-ground walking, the position of the center of gravity (G0) of the biped walking mobile body, the position of an ankle joint (12) of each leg (2), and the position of a metatarsophalangeal joint (13a) of a foot (13) are successively grasped. The horizontal position of any one of the center of gravity (G0), the ankle joint (12), and the metatarsophalangeal joint (13a) is estimated as the horizontal position of a floor reaction force acting point on the basis of the combination of the contact or no contact with the ground at a spot directly below the metatarsophalangeal joint 13a of the foot 13 and a spot directly below the ankle joint 12, which is detected by ground contact sensors 51f and 51r, respectively, provided on the sole of the foot 13. The vertical position of the floor reaction force acting point is estimated on the basis of the vertical distance from the ankle joint (12) to a ground contact surface.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for loading portable data carriers (1) with data. According to the method, general data, which are identical for a number of portable data carriers (1), are written without the external presetting of physical memory addresses into a non-volatile memory (5) of a first portable data carrier (1). In addition, a memory contents of at least one partial area of the non-volatile memory (5) of the first portable data carrier (1) is read out, and a memory image for this partial area is generated while including the associated physical memory addresses. Lastly, the memory image is written into non-volatile memories (5) of other portable data carriers (1) while using the associated physical memory addresses. The inventive method is characterized in that after the memory image has been written into the non-volatile memory (5) of one of the other portable data carriers (1), a reconversion routine is executed by this other portable data carrier (1) in order to reconvert the non-volatile memory (5) loaded with the memory image.

Abstract: There is described a method for controlling a quenching device for a converter bridge with line regeneration, whereby the converter bridge controlled by a network-timed control circuit by ignition pulses is connected with its three inputs to the phases of a three-phase network and the two outputs of the bridge are connected to a direct-current motor which feeds, when operated as a generator, current back to the three-phase network via the bridge. The quenching device is controlled by a trigger unit which emits trigger pulses depending on the monitoring of electrical and temporary variables. The device has measuring values "direct output current" and/or "supply voltages" used to determine characteristic values which are compared with theoretical characteristic values. Depending on the result of said comparison, the quenching device is optionally activated.
