Abstract: The invention increases a thermal efficiency by increasing
the degree of constant volume of a fuel-air mixture at
the time of combustion in an internal combustion engine.
To achieve this, in an internal combustion engine in which
a piston 16 slidably fitted in a cylinder 15 is connected
to a crankshaft 19 via a connecting rod 21, a cylinder
head 12 in which a combustion chamber 22 is defined is
disposed between the piston 16 and the crankshaft 19. As
compared with a prior art internal combustion engine in
which a combustion chamber is disposed opposite to a
crankshaft with a piston put therebetween, a ratio of an
increased amount of the volume of the combustion chamber
22 to an increased amount of a crank angle of the piston
16 from the top dead center can be suppressed at a small
value. As a result, it is possible to increase the degree
of constant volume of a fuel-air mixture at the time of
combustion and hence to increase a thermal efficiency of
the internal combustion engine. Also, since a tensile
load is applied to a connecting rod 21 in an expansion
stroke, it is possible to lower a strength of the
connecting rod 21 and hence to reduce the weight thereof
as compared with the prior art internal combustion engine
in which a compressive load is applied to a connecting
rod.

Abstract: A pump assembly is provided that includes a gerotor pump and a manifold.
An aspirating member (22) is positioned between a pump inlet cavity in the manifold (12) and a
fluid reservoir. Fluid flow generated by operation of the pump is diverted by a flow
control valve and accelerates as it passes between the aspirating member and the
manifold. The resulting decrease in static pressure draws the fluid out of the reservoir
where it mixes with the higher velocity fluid. As the combined fluid is slowed, the
static pressure increases to "supercharge" the inlet cavity (16) to improve the inlet fill and
reduce cavitation. An inlet port (20) in the gerotor pump corresponds to the inlet cavity in
the manifold. The timing and geometry of an input port (92) is optimized to prevent noise
inducing pressure spikes while maintaining sufficient back pressure in the pump
chambers to collapse entrapped vapor bubbles in the fluid.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of monitoring a moving linear textile
formation (4) in which the monitored linear textile formation (4) moves across
a radiation flux emitted by a radiation source (3) in the direction towards an
optical sensor (1) comprising a raw of radiation-sensitive measuring elements
(10) and thus producing on the optical sensor (1) a shadow of the moving
linear textile formation (4) to be evaluated for determining the required
parameters of the monitored moving linear textile formation (4). The invention
consists in that the monitoring of the moving linear textile formation (4) by
the optical sensor (1) is carried out with a radiation intensity at which the
radiation-sensitive measuring elements (4) of the optical sensor (1) are
irradiated at least at the level of their saturation, thus permitting for the
evaluation of the function of the optical sensor (1) a more exact division of
the radiation-sensitive measuring elements (10) into those completely
shadowed, those partly shadowed and partly irradiated, and those completely
irradiated, with the ensuing more exact definition of the position of
the delimitation lines of the moving linear textile formation (4) projected on
the optical sensor (1), these delimitation lines being in more exact
coincidence with the real state of the moving linear textile formation (4) which
leads to a simpler and more exact determination of the parameters of the
moving linear textile formation (4). 
The invention relates also to a device for carrying out the method.

Abstract: The present invention provides a convenient way to filter water in a body of
water. The invention combines an encloseable container with an internal pump
producing cyclonic action, with two different types of filters. One type of filtering
consists of layers of varied porosity, one layer filtering only very fine debris, while the
other layers blocking progressively large debris. The other type of filtering involves
stacked discs placed to aid in further filtering of the water in the chamber of the cylinder.
Water flows around the bottom disc, through holes in the second disc, and around the
third disc before approaching the stacked filters of varied porosity. An internal ultraviolet
light helps control algae in the water.

Abstract: A liquid vaporizing and feeding apparatus, having high
heat transfer efficiency and capable of producing a large
flow of vaporized gas from a small amount of liquid,
utilizes an inclined vaporization plate which is held at a
set temperature by a heater. Liquid, discharged by a
nozzle in the vicinity of the upper end of the vaporization
plate, is vaporized as it flows down an inclined upper face
of the vaporization plate. When the volume of the liquid
collected on the vaporization plate 20 reaches a designated
amount, a level sensor 40 stops the inflow of liquid
through the nozzle. Then, as vaporization continues, and
the liquid level falls, the sensor causes inflow of liquid
to resume. The cycle of stopping and resuming flow of
liquid is repeated to maintain a constant liquid level.

Abstract: A packet transmission system includes a home
agent providing a home link and a home address to a mobile
node, one or more access routers, each providing a foreign
link and a c/o address to the mobile node, and one or more
mobility support routers that relay a packet to the
destination between the mobile node and the home agent or
a counterpart correspondent node. When the mobile node
moves into a new foreign link, the corresponding access
router transmits a registration request to the home agent
and/or the correspondent node. When acquiring a
registration request on the way to the destination, each
mobility support router stores an entry having the home
address of the mobile node and the c/o address contained
in the registration request, and produces and transmits a
new registration request updating the c/o address to its
own address. When receiving a packet addressed to the home
address recorded in the entry, the mobility support router
encapsulates this packet to produce a tunneling packet and
relays the tunneling packet to the c/o address that is
recorded in the entry in association with the home address,
thereby correctly forwarding the data packet to the
destination.
