Patent EP-1424742-A4 (EP)
Inventor: TSUJI TADASHI
IPC: H04W64/00
Filed: 2001-09-07
Abstract: L'invention concerne une unité de production d'énergie (20) d'un dispositif de pile à combustible refroidie au moyen d'un échangeur de chaleur à gaz de réaction (24) par utilisation du combustible et de l'air introduit pour le fonctionnement de l'unité de production d'énergie (20). Il n'est donc pas nécessaire d'introduire séparément de l'air de refroidissement, seul l'air comprimé nécessaire pour le fonctionnement étant introduit. Il en résulte une augmentation de la puissance de sortie par rapport au volume d'air, en raison de la réduction d'énergie de la source d'alimentation d'air forcé de la pile à combustible. En sont améliorés l'efficacité/rendement énergétique du dispositif de pile à combustible et de l'unité de production d'énergie.

Title: Screw tightening construction, and screw and screw tightening tool
Inventor: YAMAMOTO KOUZOU
IPC: B25B15/00
Filed: 2002-05-27
Abstract: In a threaded fastener wrenching structure, an inclination angle ( alpha ) of an arcuate portion (32) of a fitting protrusion (20) is larger than an inclination angle ( beta ) of an arcuate portion (26) of a recess (16) and a wrenching torque is transmitted through an intermediate portion of the fitting protrusion (20) in an axial direction engaged with an opening edge of the recess (16). As a result, a diameter dimension of an engaged part (38) is larger than that in the intermediate of the recess (16) engaged with a tip portion (20a) of the fitting protrusion (20) in a case of  alpha  <  beta , and a smaller force is applied by a constant wrenching torque to the engaged part (38) in inverse proportion to the larger diameter dimension. This restrains a partial damage or a deformation of the fitting protrusion (20) and the recess (16) at the engaged part (38) or allows a small diameter threaded fastener (10) to be efficiently wrenched by higher wrenching torque. A smaller applied force to the engaged part (38) causes stably wrenched state of the small diameter threaded fastener (10) as a result of a small component force in the axial direction to force apart along an inclination of the arcuate portion (32), namely, restraining a bit (18) from coming out of the recess (16). <IMAGE> <IMAGE>

Title: A interactive method of reporting the location report by target ue in the location service
Inventor: DUAN XIAOQIN
IPC: H04W4/029
Filed: 2004-06-14
Abstract: Disclosed is an interactive method for reporting location reports by a target UE in an LCS. The method comprises: the target UE receiving a location request initiated by an applicant and reporting a location report to the LCS system after detecting the occurrence of an event triggering a location report; the LCS system returning to the target UE a location report acknowledgement after receiving the location report submitted by the target UE. Further, while submitting the location report to the LCS system, the target UE starting a timer designating a time period and judging whether it has received a location report acknowledgement returned by the LCS system within the designated time period, if yes, stopping the timer designating the time period; otherwise, reporting once again the location report to the LCS system and re-starting the timer designating the time period at the same time. In accordance with this method, errors in reporting location reports are reduced and the uncertainty in implementation of LCS is lowered.
