Patent EP-1245841-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KARAFILLIS APOSTOLOS PAVLOS
IPC: F01D25/24
Filed: 2002-03-25
Abstract: A retainer (98) for non-rotatably retaining a conduit member that extends through an opening in a casing wall. The retainer (98) has an annular top wall (102) that includes an inner periphery (104) having inwardly extending projections (106) to engage the outer surface of the conduit member. Additionally, the retainer (98) includes a depending skirt (110) that extends from the outer periphery of the top wall (102). A pair of outwardly extending straps (114) extend from the skirt (110) and include bolt holes (116) for enabling the retainer (98) to be bolted relative to the casing wall (60). The retainer (98) limits axial outward movement of the conduit member and also diffuses and deflects any leakage air that passes around the conduit member to avoid impingement of the leakage air against the structural components and accessories that are positioned outside the engine casing.

Abstract: A calibration spring tension adjuster for a seat belt tension sensor
comprising a fixed part (1), a movable part (2), a calibration spring
(3), and a holder (4), wherein the fixed part (1) and the movable part
(2) are adjacent to each other and comprise mutually facing stepped
helical faces (7,8) arranged so that the movable part (2) can be rotated
relative to the fixed part (1) causing the steps to slide over each
other causing a gap between the stepped faces (7,8) to increase and
compressing the spring. The steps can be arranged so that movement of
the movable part (2) in one direction is resisted. The holder (4) is
arranged to attach to the fixed part (1) and the spring (3) is held
between an abutment face (10) of the holder (4) and non-stepped face (9)
of the movable part (2). 
     A method of assembling and calibrating a sub-assembly for a seat belt
tension sensor is also described.

Abstract: The device, and a respective system, comprises a
microcontroller (1) for signal processing and an interface
controller (2) for communicating with an IC card (3), the
interface controller (2) being coupled between the
microcontroller (1) and the IC card (3). According to the
invention, the device comprises a reset button (6) for
resetting the microcontroller (1) in case of a malfunction,
the reset button (6) being accessible to a customer, and a
reset signal from the reset button (6) simulates an IC card
extraction or a card supply voltage shut down. In a special
embodiment, the reset signal from the reset button (6) is
applied to the microcontroller (1) and to the interface
controller (2), and the signal (9) from the reset button
(6) resetting the microcontroller (1) is delayed by a delay
circuit (8) with respect to the signal (10), which resets
the interface controller (2). The signal from the reset
button (6) is advantageously combined with the signal from
a card presence contact (5) via a logical OR-combination
(7), and then coupled to a card presence input (CPR) of the
interface controller (2).

Abstract: Es wird ein Verfahren zur Branderkennung vorgeschlagen, das dazu dient, Fehlalarme zu vermeiden, indem eine Alarmschwelle in Abhängigkeit von wenigstens einem Sensorsignal abgeleiteten Signalparametern bestimmt wird. Damit werden voteilhafterweise Fehlalarme ausgeblendet. Dies wird weiter verbessert durch die Einrichtung eines Alarmintervalls, für das die Alarmschwelle überschritten werden muss, um auf eine Alarm zu erkennen. Auch das Alarmintervall kann adaptiv in Abhängigkeit von den Signalparametern bestimmt werden. Für das Alarmintervall und die Alarmschwelle sind jeweils eine Ober- und eine Untergrenze vorgesehen, um eine bestimmte Sicherheit einzubauen, so dass die Alarmschwelle und das Alarmintervall nicht Werte annehmen, die eine Funktion des Brandmelders gefährden. Es können auch mehr Sensorsignale verwendet werden, wobei dann Signalparametern durch eine Verknüpfung der Sensorsignale erzeugt werden können. Vorzugsweise wird als Brandmelder ein Streulichtrauchmelder verwendet, der mit einem Labyrinth und einer Messkammer ausgestattet ist. (Fig. 1)

Abstract: In a compression capacity control device for a
refrigeration cycle including a variable displacement
compressor (10) that compresses refrigerant sucked from a
suction chamber (3) communicating with a suction line (1),
and discharges the refrigerant into a discharge chamber
(4) communicating with a discharge line (2), while varying
the delivery quantity of the refrigerant by changing
pressure in a pressure-regulating chamber (12) which has
the pressure therein controlled by an electromagnetic
control valve (20), the electromagnetic control valve (20)
arranged between the discharge chamber (4) and the
pressure-regulating chamber (12) is held in an open state
to place the variable displacement compressor (10) in a
state with the minimum delivery quantity within a variable
range, when the electromagnetic control valve (20) is in a
deenergized state. This makes it possible to dispense with
a clutch for inhibiting operation of the compressor,
thereby largely reducing the device cost.

Abstract: A radio communication system comprises a secondary station (110) having a plurality of communication channels (226a,226b,226c) with a plurality of primary stations (100a,100b,100c) for the transmission of data packets from one or more selected primary stations to the secondary station. The selection of primary station(s) is performed on the basis of a plurality of metrics, and may be performed in the secondary station, the primary stations, or shared between primary and secondary stations. Use of a plurality of metrics enables improved system behaviour. The values of one or more metrics may be signalled to the secondary station by a primary station or vice-versa. Metrics may be pre-processed or combined before their value is signalled. The metrics may also be dynamic and depend in part on predictions of system behaviour.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de séparation de composants présentant une charge négative ou positive donnée, contenus dans un échantillon. Dans un mode de réalisation, ledit procédé consiste à charger un microcanal avec un échantillon, placé entre un électrolyte arrière présentant une concentration sélectionnée d'une espèce titrable, et un électrolyte avant. Par application d'une tension au microcanal, des composants chargés dans l'échantillon s'empilent par isotachrophorèse, et des ions hydroxyle ou hydrogène électrolytiques formés par électrolyse au niveau de l'électrode d'extrémité placée en amont migrent dans un tampon ionique arrière, l'espèce titrable y subissant un titrage. Dans ce tampon ionique arrière, la concentration de ladite espèce titrable dans l'électrolyte arrière est sélectionnée par rapport aux longueurs de la région du canal en amont et au volume de charge d'échantillon, pour permettre à l'échantillon de former un empilement dans un volume d'échantillon relativement faible avant que la migration des ions électrolytiques quittant l'électrode en amont pour passer dans et à travers la région de volume d'échantillon ne provoque le rattrapage des composants d'échantillon chargés. Par application continue d'une tension électrique aux extrémités des canaux, les composants d'échantillon chargés dans le volume d'échantillon empilé sont séparés par électrophorèse de zone.
