Patent EP-1125880-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SCHAAD MARC
IPC: B65H54/34
Filed: 2000-05-22
Abstract: The bobbin winder, at an open-end spinning station, has a drive (2,3) to act on the winding bobbin (7) and a yarn layer (5). The bobbin drive (2,3) is a single motor system. The winding yarn tension is adjustable. The winder control (6) has an input to set the winding yarn tension profile, The wound bobbin density is held at a constant value level, set by a given profile in the form of the development of a number of parameters over the length of a bobbin winding cycle. The winding yarn tension control is through a comparison of the actual yarn tension with the nominal yarn tension at the given parameter. The parameters used by the control are the bobbin diameter and/or the winding speed and/or the stroke of the reciprocating yarn guide (5) and/or the yarn guide speed. A sensor measures the winding yarn tension, which transmits signals to the control, which has a set yarn tension profile in memory. The yarn tension is controlled by adjustments to the winding speed and/or the stroke of the reciprocating yarn guide (5).

Abstract: The printer (1) and the printer assembly (10) of the present invention has a line thermal head (11)
extending in the paper width direction; a non-roller type platen (12) disposed so as to face the line
thermal head for printing a thermal paper between the line thermal head and the platen; and a
paper extracting device (15) disposed on the paper ejection side of the line thermal head and the
platen for feeding a thermal paper between a first (16) and a second roller. The non-roller type
platen can press the thermal paper with uniform pressure and without distortion even if it is

Abstract: The invention provides a lead frame size requiring a
reduced area, and a package reduced in size. Adjacent light
couplings (4) have an insulating and light shielding element
(5) disposed therebetween to block a light transmission from
one to the other. The insulating and light shielding element
allows the light couplings to be arranged close together while
preventing crosstalk occurring therebetween. In another
construction, a primary light coupling section and a secondary
light coupling section are formed around each light emitting
element on the primary side and each light receiving element
on the secondary side. The primary and secondary light coupling
sections are optically interconnected through an insulating and
light transmitting element. This construction realizes
optical paths of reduced volume, and secures a sufficient
distance for preventing crosstalk even where adjacent light
couplings are arranged with a reduced distance therebetween.

is given to the stopper member. Moreover, a
small-diameter portion of the inner cylindrical
metal member is elastically deformed by a force fit,
and thereby, a drawing force of the support metal
member can be secured.

IPC: H04L1/00

Abstract: A cellular radio system (10, FIG. 1) operates to acquire radio network
optimisation for a GSM environment through the utilisation of a dual-technology
subscriber unit (36) configured to swap between a UMTS air-interface mode and
a slotted GSM-type mode. In the GSM mode, system performance data, i.e.
measurements metrics (306), such as RX_Lev and BER, are accumulated for a
serving cell and BA list neighbours (12-18) and this GSM system performance
data is communicated (214) to a serving OMC (38) through a BSS and MSC (32,
34). Contemporaneously with the acquisition of GSM performance data, a UMTS
call (50-54) to serving Node Bs operating in soft handover allows a serving MSC
(34) or OMC (38) to identify (302-304) accurately the location of the subscriber
unit (36) through a triangulation process. A time reference derived from soft
handover of a high bit rate data sequence allows multi-path resolution in the
UMTS domain, with an absolute propagation path therefore derivable from the
time reference. Correlation (308), at an OMC level, of an identity of the
subscriber unit (36) associates the subscriber location with the GSM system
performance data, thereby allowing a processor (40) in the OMC (38) to assess
accurately GSM system performance with a view to initiating, as required, radio
network optimisation of the GSM system. The need for costly drive testing of a
GSM-type system is therefore obviated, thereby advantageously allowing radio
network reconfiguration at either the will of the service operator or dynamically.
