Patent EP-0800946-A2 (EP)
Inventor: YANO TORU
IPC: B60L50/10
Filed: 1997-04-08
Abstract: There is provided a control system for a hybrid vehicle including an internal combustion engine (1), a drive shaft (2) driven by the engine, a motor (3) operable on electrical energy for driving the drive shaft, and electrical storage device (14) for supplying electrical energy to the motor. An amount of assistance of the motor to the engine by driving the drive shaft is calculated based at least on load on the engine. An output from the motor is controlled based on the amount of assistance of the motor to the engine. It is determined whether conditions are satisfied for a lean operating mode of the engine in which an air-fuel ratio of a mixture supplied to the engine is controlled to a leaner value than a stoichiometric value. Changeover of an operating mode of the engine is carried out between a stoichiometric operating mode in which the air-fuel ratio of the mixture supplied to the engine is controlled to a value at or close to the stoichiometric value and the lean operation or the lean operating mode, based on the amount of assistance of the motor to the engine and results of the determination of the lean operating condition.

Abstract: The voltage-controlled variable-passband filter in
accordance with the present invention is structured so
that conductive patterns, R, L, and C, and other circuit
elements are embedded in a ceramic substrate. Within this
substrate is also embedded an insulating layer made of
the same ceramic material, the capacitance of which
changes in response to an electric field applied thereto.
On one surface of the insulating layer is provided a
control electrode, and on the other surface are provided
adjacent to one another a resonator pattern, to which
high-frequency signals are applied, and a ground pattern.
Accordingly, two capacitors connected in series are
formed between the resonator pattern and the ground
pattern, and the capacitance of these series capacitors
can be adjusted by an integrated circuit mounted on the
ceramic substrate, thus reducing size and weight, and
simplifying adjustment.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a method of applying
drug-release coatings whereby a polymer can be dissolved in a
first solvent (solvent A) to form a polymer system and a drug
can be dissolved or suspended in a second solvent (solvent B)
to form a drug system. The coating or layer of coating so
formed comprises a substantially uniform combination of the
drug and polymer. Solvent B can be the same as or different
than solvent A. The coating can be applied on a stent body
by separately spraying or dipping the polymer system and the
drug system onto the devices. The coating can be
accomplished by either applying the polymer and drug systems
sequentially or simultaneously. In certain embodiments, a
drug can be suspended in solvent B. In some cases, three or
more systems can be utilized. For instance, a third system
containing pure solvent A or B can smooth the coating
surface, if the solvent of the third spraying system is
compatible with the polymer matrix.

Abstract: An optical fiber communication system (40) according to the invention comprises an optical fiber filter that can be manufactured at low cost and that can be conveniently incorporated into the system, substantially like a conventional fiber jumper. The filter comprises a length L of axially uniform optical fiber selected to have substantially no loss (e.g., < 1dB) at a wavelength λ<sub>1</sub>, and to have relatively high loss (e.g.,> 20dB) at a wavelength λ<sub>2</sub>. The length L will typically be less than 100 m. In one embodiment the optical fiber is a single mode optical fiber at λ<sub>1</sub> (e.g., 1.3µm) that does not have a guided mode at λ<sub>2</sub> (e.g., 1.55µm). In another embodiment the fiber contains a dopant that does substantially not absorb radiation of wavelength λ<sub>1</sub>, but substantially absorbs at λ<sub>2</sub>. In the second embodiment, λ<sub>1</sub> can be greater than λ<sub>2</sub>. Fiber filters according to the invention can be advantageously used in a variety of communication systems, and exemplary systems are disclosed.

Abstract: A pulse-based local area network (LAN) cable test instrument provides a
measurement of the cross-talk characteristic of a LAN patch cord as a function of
frequency in order to evaluate its relative performance and workmanship of assembly. A
LAN cable test instrument applies a test signal in the form of narrow pulses to a selected
transmission line of a LAN patch cord while the cross-talk response induced in another
transmission line in the same LAN patch cord is measured and stored as a time record in
digital memory. The near-end and far-end pulse responses are separated in the time
record, leaving only the near-end pulse response. The LAN cable test instrument
analyzes the near-end pulse response by performing a discrete Fourier transform on the
time record to provide cross-talk versus frequency information. The same test may then
be performed on the far-end end of the patch cord to obtain a complete test of the quality
of workmanship at both ends of the patch cable.

Abstract: An electrostatographic printing machine having an imaging member, operating
components, and a control system including a sensor, compensator, and look up table (110) for
adjusting the operating components. The sensor signal (V h , V l ) provides a suitable indication of an
operating component condition such as a developer unit or a photoreceptor charging device. A
compensator responds to the sensor signal to provide a non-linear adjustment signal and the look up
table (110) converts the non-linear adjustment signal to a linear adjustment signal. A device such as
a charging corotron or developer power supply responds to the linear adjustment signal to
appropriately adjust the operating component.

Abstract: The invention provides methods and apparatus for

generated from a sample are passed through a mass filter
(2) and are fragmented into daughter ions in
fragmentation means (3), the daughter ions being passed
through a discontinuous output mass analyser, such as a

ratios is split into a plurality of smaller ranges, and
the mass filter (2) is set to pass ions of each smaller
range in turn. A flag is set for each smaller range
which produces daughter ions of interest, and the mass
filter (2) is set to pass each mass-to-charge ratio of
the flagged ranges so that the mass-to-charge ratios of
the fragmented ions produced for each of the mass-to-charge
ratios passed may be determined using the
discontinuous analyser (16,29). The flagged ranges may

ranges, which are correspondingly flagged.
