of the shock wave produced in the spring member (9) 
when fuel is injected is detected at one end of the 
spring member (9), and time-course change in the 
pressure of injected fuel acting on the nozzle needle 
during the fuel injection operation is determined on 
the basis of the time-course change in magnitude of the 
shock wave returning from the nozzle needle side end in 
the spring member by reflection, whereby various fuel 
injection factors can be calculated form the determined 
pressure of injected fuel acting on the nozzle needle 
(7) during the fuel injection operation.

Title: Motor drive circuit.
Inventor: WILLIAMSON RALPH K
IPC: H02P7/00
Filed: 1993-08-31
Abstract: To improve the reliability and lower the cost of electronic control circuits for direct current (DC) motors, the need for external mechanical sensors is eliminated through the use of low cost, highly reliable voltage comparator circuits. A motor driver integrated circuit provides for electronic storage of data, automatic execution of computer programs, and input/output transfer of various electronic signals used in the control of the DC motor. The voltage comparator circuits sense the operating state of the DC motor by comparing the motor current sense voltage, which is proportional to the torque of the motor, to threshold fixed reference voltages to determine whether the DC motor is running normally or is stalled. The motor driver IC stops or reverses the DC motor when it is stalled, thereby preventing damage and providing for fully automatic operation without external sensors. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a tanning apparatus which comprises a couch, an illuminator and, where appropriate, a face tanning apparatus which form a tanning tunnel, UV radiation being transmitted from the interior of the couch, of the illuminator and, where appropriate, of the face tanning apparatus, into the tanning tunnel. This tanning device is to be improved in such a way that there is hardly any waste heat on the body, it does not necessitate cooling of the apparatus and manages with a reduced connected load. This is achieved in that there is a central radiation generator which is arranged remote from the radiation emergence surfaces delimiting the tanning tunnel, and in that the central radiation generator is connected to the interior of the couch, of the illuminator and, where appropriate, of the face tanning apparatus via fibre optical waveguides which project from the wall sections of the couch, the illuminator and, where appropriate, the face tanning apparatus, opposite the radiation emergence surfaces, each end of the fibre optical waveguides being allocated to a device which causes the emerging bundle of rays to be distributed over a large surface area with uniform distribution of the radiation.   <IMAGE>
