Patent EP-1218760-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GOLLOMP BERNARD P
IPC: G01R31/00
Filed: 2000-10-03
Abstract: Current flowing into and out of a battery installed in a vehicle (V) with the required cable between one of the battery terminals and a reference point on the vehicle is determined by measuring the voltage across the cable and computing the current from the digital value of the measured current. The resistance value of the cable can be known in which case the current is computed using Ohms law and a differential current sensor can be used to respond to the voltage measured across the cable to accommodate for different ranges of current. In an embodiment where the cable resistance is unknown, a reference current source produces a known voltage that is used to set the input value to an amplifier of fixed gain for the voltage measured across the cable by controlling the output of a potentiometer so that the amplifier output voltage can be set to match the reference current generator output voltage, thereby establishing the voltage output of the amplifier as a measurement of the current flow in the cable.

Abstract: Une restriction calorique à long terme permet d"allonger l"espérance de vie. L"invention concerne des procédés d"identification d"interventions qui imitent les effets d"une restriction calorique. Une analyse approfondie de gènes pour lesquels l"expression est statistiquement différente entre un animal témoin et un animal privé de calories a montré que des gènes spécifiques sont préférentiellement exprimés lors d"une restriction calorique. L"identification d"interventions qui produisent le même profil d"expression, fournit des interventions qui augmentent l"espérance de vie. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, les recherches ont montré que les animaux test astreints à un régime privé de calories sur une durée relativement courte, possèdent un profil d"expression génique semblable aux animaux test astreints à un régime privé de calories sur une longue durée.

Abstract: The system comprises a portable code generator or identification device (3), which is carried by a user (5) and which when triggered, transmits a response signal. The code generator carries identifying code information that when received by a receiver is evaluated by an analysis unit. Security is increased by provision of an electromagnetic field detection sensor in the code generator that detects an electromagnetic field generated in the object to which access is required. A field generation device (10) on the object side, e.g. car, generates a short range electromagnetic field, this is coupled to the code generator device (electronic key) when the drivers hand approaches the generation device, e.g. the driver's door handle. Only if the required field is present will the code generator transmit its signal.
