Abstract: A method and apparatus for utilizing unused power available in an elevator that is not fully loaded to improve the traffic handling capacity of an elevator system (1). The present invention can be used to provide an optimized velocity profile for an elevator based on the pre-designed power of the drive motor (11) and the actual load in the elevator.The invention can achieve velocities higher than the design velocity of the elevator system (1). The method also utilizes surplus torque available to the motor (11) during a trip to produce an optimized velocity profile that has a short trip time, yet does not exceed the torque deliverable by the motor (11) and does not exceed acceptable discomfort levels to the passengers or the mechanical limitations on the system (1).

Abstract: A mascara brush and method of manufacture thereof provides a mascara brush with bristle fibers that are split into numerous fragments. The mascara brush is made with bristle fibers having longitudinal voids. The brush is then conditioned by passing a rotating wire wheel over the bristle fibers . The wire wheel splits the bristle fibers into numerous bristle fragments. The conditioned brush is softer to the touch than the original mascara brush. The conditioning can be applied to the entire brush or one or more zones of the brush. The conditioning can be shallow, so that only the bristle tips are conditioned, or deep, so that a substantial length of the bristle is conditioned.

Filed: 2003-08-08
Abstract: A test apparatus for testing a device under test (DUT) to detect a defect comprises a measurement circuit (ME), a threshold circuit (TH), and a control circuit (CG). The measurement circuit (ME) comprises a counter (C 1 ) which counts clock pulses (OLK) during a count period (TC) to obtain a counted number (N) of clock pulses (CLK). The count period (TC) has a start determined by the start (tl) of a testing cycle which occurs at the instant a switch (S) which is coupled to an terminal (IN) of the device under test (DUT) removes a power supply voltage (VDD) from the terminal (IN) and the voltage (VDD') at the terminal (IN) starts decaying. An end of the count period (TC) is determined by an instant (t 2 ) a comparator (COM 1 ) detects that the voltage (VDD') at the terminal (IN) crosses a reference value (VREF). The control circuit (CG) generates the clock signal (CLK) and/or a reference number (NTH) taking into account the variability of the manufacturing process of the circuit under test (CUT). The threshold circuit (TH) generates a pass/fail signal (PF) by comparing the counted number (N) and the reference number (NTH).

IPC: H03M13/03

Abstract: The invention relates to a variable-length error-correcting (VLEC) code technique, in which the main steps are : defining all the needed parameters, generating a code having a fixed length L1, storing in a set W thus obtained all the possible L1-tuples distant of the minimum diverging distance d[min] from the codewords (one extra-bit being affixed at the end of all words if the new set W thus obtained is not empty), deleting all words of W that do not satisfy a distance criterion with all codewords, and verifying that all words of the final set W satisfy another distance criterion. Assuming that most good codes do not have jump of length, the method according to the invention allows to reduce the set of examined VLEC codes. Following this hypothesis, a new construction method, called no hole optimization, is defined, in which it is avoided to add more than one bit at the end of each word of the set W. The new algorithm does not consider very unlikely code structures and thus allows to gain in complexity.

Abstract: Un procédé de polymérisation en suspension consiste à enlever une partie de la suspension fluide sans utiliser de colonne de décantation ou de prise continue. Le procédé utilise un robinet de prise de réaction qui est fermé complètement et ouvert entièrement, de manière périodique, si bien que la suspension retirée est enlevée du réacteur de manière discontinue. Les fermeture et ouverture intégrales périodiques et régulière du robinet de prise permettent de réduire les risques d'obturation dudit robinet. Selon un autre aspect de l'invention, un robinet de prise présente des étranglements répétés, ce qui permet de réduire le risque d'obturation de celui-ci.
