Patent EP-0557083-A2 (EP)
Inventor: DUMOULIN CHARLES LUCIAN
IPC: G01R33/563
Filed: 1993-02-18
Abstract: A method of imaging and quantitatively measuring blood velocity distribution within a selected vessel employs Nuclear Magnetic Resonance excitation of a number of regions of a subject to be imaged by an rf excitation pulse applied in a magnetic field gradient. The rf excitation pulse has several frequency bands with the frequencies between the bands having essentially no amplitude. A frequency band causes excitation of a region of the subject. Each frequency band is encoded with a unique phase angle offset so that the signals from each region may be separated. The excited regions are Fourier velocity encoded along a second axis based upon their flow velocities. A re-radiated signal is acquired in the presence of a readout gradient to provide resolution along a selected axis and reconstruct a velocity profile. This method can be combined with cardiac synchronization to measure flow dynamics or it can be applied without synchronization to measure steady flow. The geometry of the measurement is flexible in that the directions of flow sensitivity and geometric resolution are independent.

Abstract: A controllable slot ventilator comprises first and second parallel side walls (28,30) which define an air passage (32) between them. A closure member (34) is mounted adjacent the front edges of the side walls via parallel motion links, which allow the closure member to move generally away from and towards the side walls to open and close the ventilator. At the rear of the side walls, i.e. the opposite end to the closure member, a mounting flange (38) is fitted, whereby the ventilator is mounted to a member. When the ventilator is installed in a slot, it is preassembled and then inserted into the slot from one end.

Abstract: An image processor comprising a plurality of processor elements (PE) each having a product sum calculating function. Input switching means are incorporated for selection of image data so that the desired data in an arbitrary processing step of any one processor element can be transferred to an arbitrary processing step of the other processor element. Each processor element includes a data writing line memory (LM), a multiplier (MPY) for multiplying the output data of the line memory (LM), a register file (RF) for storing the multiplied output therein, and an accumulator (ALU) for calculating the output of the register file (RF). Pipeline processing of the data can be executed in such constitution, and due to the provision of the input switching means in the preceding stage of each processing circuit, the image data can be transferred between the processor elements to consequently realize enhanced general usability for the image processing.

Abstract: The present invention describes slot inserts for use in a coating hopper having at least one metering slot. The slot inserts allow widthwise adjustment of the coating width. The slot inserts push fit into the metering slot and are held by friction between the walls of the metering slot. In one aspect of the invention, the inserts have different widthwise dimensions at each end allowing control over the edges. For dual cavity hoppers, the slot inserts can be shaped so as to prevent stagnant regions within the hopper cavities.

Abstract: Training data is LPC analyzed to obtain a feature parameter vector sequence, which is subjected to Viterbi segmentation using reference phoneme models to separate phonemes. Each piece of phoneme data is used to estimate a mean vector of the corresponding reference phoneme model by a maximum a posteriori estimation method. The adapted phoneme model and the corresponding reference phoneme model are used to estimate a mean vector for an unadapted phoneme model through interpolation by a vector field smoothing method. Alternatively, the mean vector of the adapted phoneme model is further smoothed by the vector field smoothing method. By this, an adapted model is obtained which has, as its parameters, the mean vector obtained for each phoneme and other corresponding parameters.

Abstract: A method of regulating backpressure traffic in a packet switched network made up of a plurality of switching elements each having a local buffer memory identifies at least one switching element which succeeds at least one other switching element in a transmission path. The at least one succeeding switching element has a congested local buffer memory. A backpressure signal is transmitted to the at least one other switching element. Packets destined for the succeeding switching element are queued in the local buffer memory of the at least one other switching element. Next, it is determined when the occupancy of the local buffer memory for the other switching element has exceeded a predetermined threshold. In response to the exceeded predetermined threshold, the other switching element ignores the backpressure signal transmitted from the succeeding switching element and transmits the queued packets to the succeeding switching element.

Abstract: An output driver circuit for an integrated circuit is disclosed, where the output driver drives an output terminal with a high logic level having a voltage limited from the power supply voltage of the integrated circuit. The limited voltage is provided by applying a limited output high voltage to an output buffer, such that the drive signal applied to the gate of the pull-up transistor in the output driver is limited by the limited output high voltage applied to the output buffer. A voltage reference and regulator circuit for generating the limited output high voltage is also disclosed, and is based on a current mirror. The sum of the current in the current mirror is controlled by a bias current source, which may be dynamically controlled within the operating cycle or programmed by way of fuses. An offset compensating current source adds current into the reference leg of the current mirror to eliminate the development of an offset voltage in the current mirror, and the limited output high voltage is shifted by the threshold voltage of the pull-up drive transistor by way of a threshold shift circuit.

Abstract: The method reduces the reluctance moment of an electric motor known as cogging. The motor has a stator provided with groove openings and a permanent magnetic rotor. The latter has a magnetic flux density distribution, seen in the circumferential direction, with a region of essentially constant magnetic flux density in the middle of a pole. At least one additional reluctance moment is generated in the motor. This additional moment is superimposed on the first mentioned reluctance moment to reduce and/or eliminate the cogging effect. In the electronic commutator motor each pole boundary between adjacent rotor poles is divided into a number of parallel sections. The space between these sections is selected such that the rotor part with sections of a first type cooperates with the stator causing a first reluctance motor in counter-phase to a second moment.
