Patent FI-88344-C (FI)
Inventor: BOEGLI PETER
IPC: G05D1/02
Filed: 1986-03-06
Granted: 1993-04-26
Abstract: The passive track system comprises a passive track formed as a highly reflective strip adhered to the floor and containing a bar code, vehicle-supported passive track reading devices for forward and reverse travel as well as a bar code reading device. The passive track system can be operated as a passive track guidance system or as a passive track control system or both. The vehicle follows the passive track or guide path by continuously monitoring the travel lane on both sides of the central longitudinal axis of the vehicle using track sensors located in reading heads. In the method, sets of actual values thus measured are cross-correlated with a set of reference values corresponding to the track positions and stored in an electronic evaluation device. The appropriate cross-correlation function is calculated for each "observation" using a special track guidance algorithm and then a track position of the vehicle as well as a quality or system condition factor for the passive track system are derived. Control is also effected by the passive track. The vehicle decodes the bar code using code sensors and processes it as a control signal. The passive track is useful both as a control line for track guidance and as a signal source for functional control. Since the passive track is easily and quickly applicable to and removable from the floor, it renders possible a freely chosen layout of the travel network and thus an optimal utilization of the flexibility of trackless vehicles.

Abstract: A method for production of low molecular weight heparin (LMW-heparin) bv enzymatic depolymerization of heparin with heparinase wherein heparin is continuously fed to a depolymerization zone, the depolymerized LMW-heparin is ultrafiltrated, the retentate is recycled to the depolymerization zone and LMW-heparin is recovered from the filtrate. The process enables the production of LMW-heparin with a desired molecular weight and low polydispersity within narrow limits by continuously or frequently measuring the molecular weight and polydispersity of the LMW-heparin product and correction of process parameters of the depolymerization reaction so as to counteract deviations in the molecular weight and polydispersity from the desired values.

Title: Computer controlled optimized hybrid engine
Inventor: KOS JOSEPH F
IPC: B60W10/06
Filed: 1989-10-27
Granted: 1999-07-13
Abstract: This invention is a hybrid engine employing a reciprocating piston in conjunction with an electromagnetic transducer for control and power output. The transducer is essentially a specialized linear motor/ generator. The piston is rigidly connected by means of a rod to a permanent magnet (or equivalent). The piston-rod-magnet unit is constrained by bearings to move translationally along one axis. The magnet can move linearly into and out of the yoke of the magnetic transducer to generate an electric current in the windings of the yoke. At the same time computer control of the effective impendences of these windings as well as computer controlled currents (provided by an electric storage battery or electrical energy storage indicator) flowing through some (or all) of these windings control the motion of the magnet and hence of the piston. Computer control is also exercised over other devices to regulate ignition timing, fuel injection, air intake, valve motion, etc. The power output may be used to drive A.C., D.C. or A.C./D.C. motors or it may be wholly or partially rectified to charge batteries and/or power A.C./D.C. or D.C. motors or to power other devices.

Inventor: NORSKOV PREBEN
IPC: F23D11/38
Filed: 1989-12-27
Granted: 1998-05-19
Abstract: A valve finding particular use in a pressure atomising nozzle of a heating installation comprises a housing  (2)  in which there are a valve seat (3) with an adjoining valve chamber (4) and a flow passage leading to an outlet (5).  In the interior of the valve chamber (4), there is a spring influenced closure member (6).  The cross-section of the valve chamber (4) has a guide section (11) which adjoins the seat (3)  and has a cross-section corresponding  to  that  of  the  closure member (6).  It is only downstream of this guide section (11) that the closure member (6) frees a flow passage.   This construction of  the valve ensures that fluid  can flow through the valve only  after  a particular desired pressure has been  reached  but,  immediately after the conveying pressure drops below a predetermined  value,  fluid can no longer reach the outlet (5) of the valve chamber (4).

Abstract: La présente invention porte sur un moyen de sustentation aérienne par le recours à des jets d'air qui sont projetés (par des "becs") exclusivement et presque tangentiellement sur le dessus d'un cylindre rotatif de Magnus afin d'y créer une dépression. La surface ainsi balayée par ces jets (et que nous appelons "plage utile") est limitée un peu plus loin par une gratte qui fait décoller le jet de la surface du cylindre rotatif. L'énergie requise pour pomper l'air projeté sur le cylindre est utilisée avec le maximum d'efficacité parce que, contrairement aux traditionnels cylindres de Magnus immergés totalement dans le flux pompé, les jets canalisés par le bec et la gratte précités ne créent aucune portance inutile ou négative ni aucune zone importante de turbulences. Un grand nombre de dispositifs accessoires sont aussi proposés pour rendre ce principe pratique et utilisable. En particulier, les éléments précités sont regroupé en plusieurs modules et ces modules sont protégés par des parois et des persiennes. Cet aéronef est contrôlé surtout par des déplacements de la gratte précitée qui font varier la surface de la plage utile.

Title: Speech coding system with generation of linear predictive coding parameters and control codes from a digital speech signal
Inventor: COOLEGEM KAREL GERARD
IPC: G10L/
Filed: 1990-09-14
Granted: 1995-09-05
Abstract: Analog speech signals are coded as digital signals before transmission over a transmission medium and then are decoded at their destination.  The coder is of the linear predictive type (LPC) and includes an LPC analyzer for adjusting an analysis filter, which receives the digital signal and generates a residual signal representative of error content.          The parameters by which the filter is adjusted by the analyzer and the residual signal together represent the digital signal.          The residual signal is split into segments and, per segment, several first pulse train signals are generated, each having a different starting time position within the segment.  The first pulse train signal which is most closely related to the residual signal is selected and compared to second pulse train signals stored in a codebook.  A location in the codebook belonging to a second pulse train signal that exhibits the greatest degree of correspondence to the selected first pulse train signal and the starting position of the selected first pulse train signal, together, represent the residual signal and are transmitted into and through the transmission medium in addition to the LPC parameters.  At the receiving location a synthesizer filter is controlled by a modified output of a duplicate codebook.

Filed: 1990-09-27
Granted: 1997-11-18
Abstract: A method for intermittent steam injection which comprises completing wells in more than one zone and selecting a number of wells as steam injectors.  As interwell communication (temperature breakthrough) develops, producers are shut-in to allow for the reservoir pressure to build up and heat to propagate from the channel of communication (e.g., fractures) to the reservoir matrix. The injection phase is followed by blowdown.  Thereafter, shut in producers and, in certain other cases, injectors are put on production.

Title: Circuit breaker or fuse failure alarm circuits for dc telecom and ac distribution circuits
Inventor: HASE ALFRED M
IPC: G08B21/20
Filed: 1990-11-15
Granted: 1995-11-21
Abstract: An  alarm  circuit  is provided which  takes  the  place  of auxiliary  contacts  that are generally used in association  with circuit  breakers or fuses to provide an alarm  warning  in  the event  that the circuit breaker or fuse in series with a load has opened for any reason.  The alarm circuit is provided with a high resistance  resistor  that is connected to the load  end  of  the circuit  breaker,  and at the other end of the resistor to a high gain amplifier or solid state relay.  The output of the high gain amplifier is connected to a remote signal relay,  which may be DC relay or an AC relay.  The arrangement is such that the high gain amplifier  becomes  conductive  in  the event  that  the  circuit breaker opens, thereby causing an alarm indication.  Signal means are associated with the circuits,  including an LED to provide  a local  signal  indicative of the fact that the relay has  changed its  state.   A remote alarm circuit is driven by the  change  of state  of  the remote signal delay.   Because the  alarm  circuit monitors  the  circuit breaker itself,  a true indication of  the fact that the circuit breaker has opened is assured.

Abstract: This invention provides an in situ monitoring technique and apparatus for chemical/mechanical planarization end point detection in the process of fabricating semiconductor or optical devices. Fabrication of semiconductor or optical devices often requires smooth planar surfaces, either on the surface of a wafer being processed or at some intermediate stage e.g. a surface of an interleaved layer. The detection in the present invention is accomplished by means of capacitively measuring the thickness of a dielectric layer on a conductive substrate. The measurement involves the dielectric layer, a flat electrode structure and a liquid interfacing the article and the electrode structure. Polishing slurry acts as the interfacing liquid. The electrode structure includes a measuring electrode, an insulator surrounding the measuring electrode, a guard electrode and another insulator surrounding the guard electrode. In the measurement a drive voltage issupplied to the measuring electrode, and in a bootstrap arrangement to a surrounding guard electrode, thereby measuring the capacitance of the dielectric layer of interest without interfering effect from shunt leakage resistance. The process and apparatus are useful not only for measuring the thickness of dielectric layers on conductive substrates in situ, during planarizing polishing, but also for measuring the dielectric thickness on substrates in other processes, e.g. measuring the dielectric layer thickness prior to or after an etching process.
