Patent EP-1326087-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KISHIDA MASAYUKI
IPC: G01S13/931
Filed: 2002-12-11
Abstract: The invention detects a ghost occurring due to
mispairing, reflections from a wall, or the like, and
improves the ability of a radar to track targets when
actual relative velocity changes by more than a certain
value. If a stationary target is present within a
prescribed region centered about. a moving target, the
stationary target is excluded from output data by
determining it as being a target resulting from
mispairing due to the detection of guardrail posts or
similar structures. Further, a moving target that is
expected to collide with an eligible target is also
excluded from the output data by determining it as being
a target resulting from mispairing due to the detection
of a target having many reflecting points. For a moving
target showing an unlikely relative velocity, pairing
with some other peak is attempted by determining the
moving target as being a target resulting from mispairing
due to the detection of a plurality of moving targets
moving in the same direction. When there are two targets
substantially equal in distance and velocity, the target
located outward, as viewed from the radar-equipped
vehicle, is excluded from the output data by determining
it as being a ghost occurring due to reflections from a
wall or like structure. After checking continuity, if
the present data is not one calculated by extrapolation
but the previous data is one calculated by extrapolation,
filtering calculations are not performed for the
calculation of the relative velocity; in other cases, the
filtering calculations are performed.

Abstract: A method and system for indicating curve connection continuity information in a
graphical design system comprises steps and apparatus for determining values for measures of
G1, G2, and G3 continuity at a junction point between curves. The continuity values arc
selectively displayed in a graphical display as respective tags adjacent or otherwise associated
with the junction point at issue. The tags are updated as the shape of the curves are altered to
provide a designer with a substantially real-time indication of the continuity of the curve
junction. The display format of the tags can be altered to indicate when the respective continuity
measure is within a predefined continuity tolerance level.

Abstract: An isolation platform assembly (10) for a vehicle (V) on which is mounted instruments and sensors (S). The instruments and sensors are installed on a gimbal (G). A mounting bracket (12a-12c) attaches the assembly to the vehicle. The unit further includes a platform or plate (14) to which the gimbal is attached. The plate connects to the bracket by cable isolators (62) which attenuate shock and vibration forces transmitted through the vehicle. This protects the instrument and sensor packages from shock and vibration damage, particularly when the vehicle is moving. It also allows the instruments and sensors to be used to obtain information both while the vehicle is parked and while it is moving. The assembly further includes a restraint mechanism (64) comprising torsion bars (66, 72) and levers (74, 108) which connect the platform to the mounting bracketry so to enable the instrumentation and sensor payload to be moved from one orientation to another for data acquisition.

Abstract: An improved rapidly disintegrating flavored film that quickly and completely disintegrates on food items, including precooked food items, such as hamburgers, chicken, and pizza, includes a hydroxypropyl cellulose, a modified starch and a flavor ingredient. The flavored films of this invention completely disintegrate on precooked food items in less than a minute, and often in less than 30 seconds, whereas previously known flavored films typically do not completely dissolve on precooked food items. The flavored films of this invention may be advantageously employed for uniformly and reproducibly flavoring food items at a desired level.

IPC: G02B6/125

Abstract: Waveguide bends are specially designed according to a matching condition in order to suppress mode distortion and other undesirable effects. Generally, an optical field in a waveguide bend (58) is describable by first and second bend modes which are in phase at the start of the bend, but which propagate at different velocities through the bend, thereby coming out of phase and into phase with each other in beats. According to the teaching of the invention, the bend (58) is structured having regard to its length and curvature (1, R, theta) to ensure that at its end the first and second bend modes are substantially in phase with each other having completed approximately an integer number of beats. By being in phase at the end of the bend, the two modes are able to properly reconstruct the first mode of the straight waveguide and propagate on with a minimum of distortion, whether it be into a straight section, a further curved section of arbitrary curvature, into a free space propagation region or whatever. This approach can be used to suppress mode distortion, transition losses and other negative effects of waveguide bends, without inserting small lateral jumps as proposed in the prior art. A number of device applications are discussed, including couplers, Y-branches and Mach-Zehnder interferometers, all of which include waveguide bends.

Abstract: Cette invention porte sur une source laser qui émet une impulsion qui est subdivisée et répétée en sous-impulsions par une structure de retard présentant une pluralité d'étapes. Chacune de ces sous-impulsions est retardée par l'une des étapes et le niveau de retard de chaque sous-impulsion est différent de celui des autres en fonction de l'impulsion. Chaque niveau de retard et le retard temporel associé ainsi produit est supérieur à la durée de l'impulsion, ce qui réduit au minimum le chevauchement entre les sous-impulsions adjacentes. L'impulsion peut être transmise par la structure de retard ou peut être réfléchie à partir de la structure de retard. Les fréquences de récurrence peuvent atteindre ou dépasser des centaines de THz. Le système et le procédé de la présente invention peuvent être utilisés dans des systèmes de multiplexage temporel. Des informations peuvent être transmises et acheminées par les sous-impulsions à l'aide des techniques de modulation adéquates.

Title: A bicycle lock
Inventor: DE ROOS HENDRIK
IPC: B62H5/14
Filed: 2003-03-06
Abstract: A bicycle lock according to the invention comprising a receiving part into which a locking pin (5) may be inserted and locked by means of a pawl (8) capable of engaging a recessed groove (6) in the locking pin (5). 
     The pawl (8) is part of a bent spring member (7) and is the only part in the resilient pawl system. 
     A pin (13) mounted eccentrically at the end of the locking cylinder (12) will be capable of lifting the pawl (8) out of its locking engagement in the locking pin (5) by rotation. 
     Since the spring element thus forms both the resilient part and the pawl part, the structure may be made compact and thus constitute a stable pattern of movement. This minimizes the risk of locking failure because of play, spring breakage or natural oscillations. 
     The receiving part moreover accommodates a cover plate (16) at the bottom of the housing (3) to protect the groove (5) of the locking pin (6) and to protect against rotation of the locking cylinder in the receiving part.
