Title: Blank cutting for press tool
Inventor: MCCONVILLE DAVID
IPC: B23D19/06
Filed: 1998-09-16
Abstract: In known press tools, the press members which carry the cutting blades act in a reciprocal manner. In use, a stock material is indexed into position, halted, cut and moved on. In the press tool of the present invention, the cutting blades are mounted on rotating cylinders which allows for faster processing of a coil of stock material. Also, because the improved press tool processes the stock material as it is fed from the coil there is no need to provide measures to deal with accumulating slack which can be a problem for press tools which act in a reciprocating manner. Cylinders 12, 22 are provided with complementary cutting blades 18, 28. Sheet stock 2 is fed in direction A between the contra-rotating cylinders and cut by the blades to form blank 4.

Title: Vehicle drive force controller responsive to regional conditions
Inventor: TOUKURA NOBUSUKE
IPC: B60W30/18
Filed: 1997-11-19
Abstract: A vehicle drive force controller comprises a navigation device for determining a regional attribute or condition (e.g. urban, general, hilly) in which the vehicle is travelling. The navigation device may comprise a global positioning system for determining vehicle position, combined with a memory for storing a map. A microprocessor calculates a target value of a throttle gain S121, based on the determined regional attribute, and also calculates a new throttle gain by adding a predetermined amount to the present throttle gain S124. Therefore the value of the throttle gain approaches the target value in steps. An electronic throttle varies the engine output based on the new throttle gain. The microprocessor can be programmed so that it only calculates a new throttle gain if the accelerator opening is zero (figure 35), or it can be programmed so that a new throttle gain value is calculated just once each time the accelerator opening becomes zero (figure 36).

Title: Digital audio broadcasting of traffic information
Inventor: KIM JEONG-KYU
IPC: G08G1/09
Filed: 1998-12-08
Abstract: An arrangement for providing traffic information using digital audio broadcasting to a user of a vehicle multiplexes encoded audio data, an encoded channel ID and encoded additional data. The channel ID indicates a predetermined channel through which the additional encoded data, which may include local traffic information, is transmitted, the location of the traffic information and its length. The multiplexed data is then modulated and transmitted. At a receiver in the vehicle the encoded audio data is processed to provide an audio signal to the driver. The encoded channel ID is decoded and the encoded additional data on the predetermined channel corresponding to the decoded channel ID is extracted, decoded and displayed to the driver. The data may be modulated using a coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (COFDM) digital audio broadcast (DAB) modulation scheme. An MPEG decoding scheme may be used in the receiver for the audio data and a JPEG decoding scheme for the additional encoded data.
