Abstract: A device for automatically supplying a predetermined amount of feed to an animal in a period of time respectively a period having a predetermined length. Said device is provided with a feeding parlour, with animal identification means for identifying an animal present at the feeding parlour, and with a computer for controlling the device for automatically supplying the feed to the feeding parlour. The computer is possibly provided with a clock for determining the point of time of supply of feed to the animal. The device is provided with means for determining the amount of feed consumed by an animal after a supply of feed. Said amount is stored at least temporarily in a memory of the computer. The computer is provided with a calculating device for determining the total amount of feed consumed by an animal in the period having the predetermined length immediately preceding the momentary point of time when the animal is identified by the animal identification means at the feeding parlour. The calculating device determines the difference between said predetermined amount of feed and said total amount of feed consumed by the animal. The computer controls the device in such a way that, during the momentary supply of feed, an amount of feed smaller than or equal to the difference can be supplied as feed balance to the animal. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A digital camera includes a liquid crystal display (LCD) for viewing
images captured from an image sensor and stored on a removable memory card. The
LCD also presents a user interface (UI) that allows the user to create a print order
"utilization file". As individual images are viewed, the user can decide how many (if
any) prints to make of the image, the print size, and the print quality (low cost ink jet
versus high quality thermal prints, for example). The memory card can then be inserted
in a home printer, walk-up kiosk, or dropped off/mailed to a photofinisher, or the
camera itself can be connected to the printer or kiosk via a wired or wireless (e.g.,
IrDA) link. The print order can then be automatically produced without any additional
user intervention.

IPC: F01N13/02
Filed: 2004-09-10
Abstract: A dynamic catalyst bed temperature Td is computed by taking the thermal capacity of an exhaust system (36,38,40) into consideration. Therefore, even when the operating condition of an engine (2) is in transition, it is possible to obtain a bed temperature that corresponds to an actual catalyst bed temperature at an exhaust purifying catalyst (38) in a state where no addition of fuel is being performed. When a steady-state catalyst bed temperature Ts, which determines the amount of addition of fuel, satisfies an inequality Td - Ts > Tjd, addition of fuel is excessive, which can excessively increase the catalyst bed temperature. Even if this is a case, addition of fuel is prohibited by setting a fuel addition limiting flag Fac to ON. Therefore, even if the operating condition of the engine (2) is in transition, the exhaust purifying catalyst (38) is not excessively heated.
