Patent GB-201211293-D0 (GB)
Title: Method and apparatus for selective catalytic reduction device slip detection
Filed: 2012-06-26
Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for estimating the amount of ammonia output from a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) device 20 located in the exhaust system of a vehicle powered by an internal combustion engine. A NOx sensor 44 is located downstream of the SCR to monitor the output of the SCR device and provide data for controlling the dosage of a reductant supplied to the SCR. The NOx sensor is sensitive to NOx which may be output from the SCR when it is under-dosed but is also sensitive to ammonia which may be present when the SCR is over-dosed. Consequently the signal from the NOx sensor is a combination of the NOx and/or ammonia levels in the exhaust. The method and apparatus for estimating the amount of ammonia output from the SCR determine a NOx conversion efficiency of the SCR using a variance of a NOx input measurement from a NOx sensor 42 located upstream of the SCR and a variance of a NOx output measurement from the NOx sensor 44 located downstream of the SCR. An estimate of the actual NOx output from the SCR is then determined using the measured NOx input value and the NOx conversion efficiency of the SCR. The resulting estimate of NOx output is used in conjunction with the measured NOx output to determine the ammonia output by subtracting the estimated NOx output from the measured NOx output to provide an estimate of the ammonia output.

Title: Carabiner
Filed: 2012-07-06
Abstract: A carabiner comprises a body 10 having a free end and a pivot end between which is defined an opening. A gate 24 is carried on the body 10 close to the pivot end, the gate 24 being pivotable between a closed position, in which it closes the opening, and an open position. A locking mechanism is carried on the gate which, in a locked condition, prevents movement of the gate from the closed position. In an unlocked condition, the locking mechanism allows movement of the gate 24 to its open position. The locking mechanism includes a sleeve 40 that can be manipulated by a user to place the locking mechanism in the unlocked condition. In order to place the locking mechanism in the unlocked condition, the sleeve 40 must be subject sequentially to an initial rotation about the gate 24, translation along the gate 24, and further rotation about the gate 24.

Title: Apparatus and method for controlling focus in a recording system
Inventor: WILKINSON RICHARD L
IPC: G11B7/08
Filed: 1981-07-13
Granted: 1984-11-15
Abstract: A control system for maintaining proper focus of a radiant recording or writing beam, such as a laser beam, with respect to a recording surface, by measurement of the duty cycle of an oscillatory information-carrying signal recorded from the recording surface immediately after recording. The system includes a photodetector for detecting a reading beam used to recover the recorded information, a focusing lens movable with respect to the recording surface to focus the writing and reading beams, a dither oscillator to generate a dither signal employed to move the focusing lens in an oscillatory manner, a duty cycle detector to provide a signal indicative of the duty cycle of the information-carrying signal recovered by the reading beam, and a multiplier for comparing the phases of the duty cycle signal and the dither oscillator signal, and thereby providing a correction signal indicative of the magnitude and polarity focus error. This control system provides fine focus control, and is utilized in conjunction with a coarse focus control comprising a focus detector, differential amplifier and feedback path to the movable focusing lens. In addition, the signal from the duty cycle detector can be coupled to maintain the power of the writing beam at an optimum level and to maintain the duty cycle at a constant level, such as fifty percent.
