Title: Destruction controlling mechanism for an electrochemical cell
Inventor: VOURLIS HARRY
IPC: H01M50/50
Filed: 2001-03-15
Abstract: An electrochemical cell is disclosed that includes a cell housing and a spiral-wound electrode assembly including wound alternating layers of a positive electrode, a separator, and a negative electrode. The electrochemical cell further includes a destruction control mechanism provided proximate an interior surface of the cell housing for piercing a portion of the separator layer to create an internal short circuit between outermost layers of the positive and negative electrodes of the spiral-wound electrode assembly when an excessive force is applied to the destruction control mechanism. The destruction control mechanism preferably includes burrs formed on the trailing end of the negative electrode that protrude toward the positive electrode so as to penetrate through the adjacent separator layer to create an internal short circuit when excessive force is applied to the burrs. Preferably, the burrs are created by stitching a conductive tab to an exposed portion of the conductive foil strip forming a portion of the negative electrode. To further increase the likelihood that the first internal short circuit will occur when the burrs penetrate the separator, the portion of the positive electrode underlying the burrs may be formed of exposed conductive foil to provide an inert region for the short circuit to occur.

Title: Method and device for producing a fingerprint and method and device for identifying an audio signal
Inventor: HERRE JURGEN
IPC: G10L17/26
Filed: 2004-05-19
Abstract: For producing a fingerprint of an audio signal, use is made of information defining a plurality of predetermined fingerprint modi, all of the fingerprint modi relating to the same type of fingerprint, the fingerprint modi, however, providing different fingerprints differing from each other with regard to their data volume, on the one hand, and to their characterizing strength for characterizing the audio signal, on the other hand, the fingerprint modi being pre-determined such that a fingerprint in accordance with a fingerprint modus having a first characterizing strength is convertible to a fingerprint in accordance with a fingerprint modus having a second characterizing strength, without using the audio signal. A predetermined fingerprint modus of the plurality of predetermined fingerprint modi is set and subsequently used for computing a fingerprint using the audio signal. The convertibility feature of the fingerprints having been produced by the different fingerprint modi enables setting a flexible compromise between the data volume and the characterizing strength for certain applications without having to re-generate a fingerprint database with each change of the fingerprint modus. Fingerprint representations scaled with regard to time or frequency may readily be converted to a different fingerprint modus.

Title: Arithmetical coding of transform coefficients
Inventor: SCHWARZ HEIKO
IPC: H04N19/129
Filed: 2005-04-08
Abstract: A first one-bit symbol (CBP4) is transmitted for each block of transformation coefficients. If the CBP4 shows that a corresponding block contains significant coefficients, a significance image is encoded as a result of the transmission of a one-bit symbol (SIG) for each coefficient in a scan sequence. If a corresponding significance symbol is 'one', then a further one-bit symbol (LAST) is transmitted to show whether a present significant coefficient is a last coefficient within a block or whether further significant coefficients are following. Positions of significant transformation coefficients contained in a block are determined and encoded for each block in a first scanning process, followed by a second scanning process carried out in reverse order. Independent claims are also included for the following: (a) A structure with a processor/chip set up to carry out the method of the present invention; (b) and for a computer program for carrying out the method of the present invention when loaded; (c) and for a computer-readable memory medium for storing a program to carry out the method of the present invention; (d) and for a method for downloading a computer program e.g. from the Internet onto a data-processing device linked to a data network.
