Abstract: A beverage infusion container including a partitioning board transversely disposed in the container to divide the interior of the container into a first division and a second division each having an opening. The partitioning board is formed with a central draining hole. The blocking/unblocking of the draining hole is controlled by a controlling mechanism. A mesh rack is disposed on one side of the partitioning board in the first division. A communicating tube is formed on the partitioning board adjacent to the circumferential wall of the container for communicating the first division with the second division. The mesh rack is formed with a ventilating tube corresponding to the draining hole of the partitioning board. The ventilating tube extends toward the opening of the first division.

Title: Systeme et procede d'acquisition rapide de phase code et de frequence porteuse dans un recepteur gps
Inventor: SULLIVAN MARK C
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 2001-08-09
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système et un procédé d'acquisition de fréquence porteuse et de phase code Gold à l'aide de segments courts d'un signal GPS reçu. Dans un mode de réalisation, un segment de 1ms (604a) d'un signal GPS (602) est transformé en domaine de fréquence (606/608a), puis multiplié (610a) par une représentation de fréquence du code Gold (609). Le produit résultant est converti en domaine temps (614), et une crête est détectée (620). L'emplacement de la crête correspond à la phase code. Si aucune crête n'apparaît, la fréquence porteuse est modifiée. Des étapes de bins ou de demi-bins dans la fréquence porteuse sont prises en compte. Le gain du traitement est effectué par utilisation de segments plus longs du signal d'entrée, par exemple 4 ou 16ms, et par intégration de segments de 1ms. L'invention concerne également des moyens permettant de compenser les effets d'une transition, si cela devait se produire dans le segment court du signal GPS traité. Les intégrations peuvent être effectuées par des techniques non cohérentes et cohérentes.

Title: Leg structure of legged robot
Inventor: MIYAZAKI SUSUMU
IPC: B25J5/00
Filed: 2001-11-16
Abstract: A legged mobile robot leg structure is provided in which a lower leg part is connected to the lower end of an upper leg part through a knee joint, a foot part having a six-axis force sensor is connected to the lower end of the lower leg part through an ankle joint, and the ankle joint supports the foot part so that the foot part can pitch around a lateral axis and roll around a fore-and-aft axis relative to the lower leg part. A pitch motor for making the foot part pitch around the lateral axis is supported on the lower leg part at a position above the ankle joint, and a roll motor for making the foot part roll around the fore-and-aft axis is supported on the lower leg part at a position above the ankle joint. The driving force for driving the lower leg part can thereby be reduced by decreasing the moment of inertia around the knee joint, and the influence of noise of the motors on the six-axis force sensor provided on the foot part can be minimized.

Abstract: A conveying device with peristaltic movement includes a flexible transport tube and a two-way shape memory alloy. The two-way shape memory alloy is mounted on the surface of the transport tube. When the two-way shape memory alloy is electrically conducted and heated, the cross-sectional area of transport path in the flexible transport tube contracts by the contrastive force resulting therefrom. When electrically conducting and heating the two-way shape memory alloy is terminated, the original cross-sectional area of transport path in the flexible transport tube is restored by the recovery force thereof. The position of the flexible transport tube at which the contraction and the restoration are applied to is sequentially moved in a predetermined direction by a temperature controlling device, so as to convey an object within the flexible transport tube in the predetermined direction.
