Patent EP-0896216-A2 (EP)
Inventor: CHELVAYOHAN MAHESAN
IPC: G01J3/42
Filed: 1998-07-30
Abstract: A gas sensor (10) is shown having alternately energized infrared radiation
sources (14, 16) disposed in a gas chamber (12) at different distances from an
infrared detector (18). Both radiation sources are filtered at the absorbing wave
length of a gas to be monitored with one radiation source located proximate to
the detector serving as a "virtual reference". The differential absorption between
the two radiation sources is used to determine the concentration of a gas being
monitored. In a modified sensor (30) one radiation source is seated in a
parabolic recess (34a) in a base plate (34) with the radiation focused on one
angled end wall (32d) of a dished shaped cover member (32) and reflected over
to a second angled end wall (32e) and into the detector with the radiation
sources and the detector attached directly to a circuit board (24) mounting the
sensor. The recessed cover with opposed angled end walls is also used with
another embodiment in which the radiation sources are both located the same
distance from the detector, are alternately energized and are filtered with sensing
and reference filters, respectively. A modified embodiment (50) has a concave
end wall (32e') vertically aligned with the detector and another embodiment (60)
has an additional detector (18') along with a semi-reflective. semi-transmitting
optical baffle (32k) for use with a gas having a higher absorption level. This
embodiment also shows cover member (32") received directly on circuit board
(24') with no intermediate base plate.

Abstract: At least the power portion of the transmitter and the front end of the receiver of
base station of a wireless communication system (70) are advantageously co-located with
the antenna (or antennae), typically atop a tower or other elevated feature. Such co-location
however exposes the electronics to lightning damage. This is avoided by
placement of the electronics and antenna (101) into lightning protection apparatus that is
transparent to rf radiation during lightning-quiescent conditions but is a Faraday cage
during a lightning strike, reverting to the transparent condition at the conclusion of the
strike. This is achieved by placement of the electronics and antenna inside a housing that
comprises a dielectric chamber (11, 12) filled with ionizable gas in contact with
electrodes (14, 15) selected such that, during a lightning strike, current can flow between
the electrodes.

Abstract: A door lock device for a vehicle includes a casing
(26 1 ,26 2 ,26 3 ) fixed to a door (D F ,D R ) and having a bulged
portion (41) which defines an ingress passage (40) into
which a striker (39) on a vehicle body (20) enters; a
latch (27) turnably supported on the casing, so that it
is brought into engagement with the striker (39) for turning
movement; a ratchet (28) supported on the casing for
engagement and disengagement with and from the latch (27); an
open lever (30) turnably carried on the casing (26 1 ,26 2 ,26 3 ) so as to
be capable of receiving an operating force for releasing
a locking state in which the ratchet (28) is in engagement
with the latch (27); an internal operating-force inputting
means (PI 1 ,PI 2 ,PI F ,PI R ) to transmit to the open lever (30) a
door opening operation force depending on the door
opening operation within the vehicle; and a locked-state
switch-over means (LC 1 ,LC 2 ,LC F ,LC R ) which includes an open
link (31) connected at one end thereof to the open lever (30)
and which is capable of switching over an unlocked state
in which the ratchet (28) can be operated from the engaged
position to the disengaged position in response to the
turning movement of the open lever (30), and a locked state
in which the operation of the ratchet (28) from the engaged
position to the disengaged position is impossible, 
irrespective of the turning movement of the open lever (30).
In the door lock device, the open link (31) which extends
along a plane perpendicular to a lengthwise direction of
the ingress passage and which is capable of being
operated within such plane, is disposed sideways of the
bulged portion (41) on an opposite side from an inlet of the
ingress passage. Thus, the space occupied by the door
lock device in a direction to avoid the interference
with a glass sash (23) as well as in a direction of the
thickness of a door can be set as small as possible, and
the degree of freedom in setting of a door internal
structure and a thickness of the door can be increased.

Abstract: The control knob (10) engages, on its interior, a translucent
polycarbonate jewel body collar assembly (14) of a first color, such
as white, which, in turn, provides a housing for a translucent
polycarbonate jewel LED holder assembly (12). The LED (70) emits light,
possibly modified by the jewel LED holder assembly (14), of a second
color, such as blue or blue-green. This second color can be
varied in intensity and hue by varying the polarity and
resistance of the LED (70). The jewel body collar assembly (14) includes
a collar (50) to engage the interior cylindrical support section of
the control knob (10) and a housing assembly (52) to engage the jewel LED
holder assembly (12). The jewel body collar assembly (14) further includes
a ridge which protrudes through a slot in the sidewall and front
face of the control knob (10) thereby forming an indicator for the
control knob (10). In ambient illumination, such as during the day,
the indicator appears to be the color of the jewel body collar
assembly (14), such as white. However, when the LED (70) is electrically
illuminated, such as during the night, the illumination passes
through the jewel LED holder assembly (12), and the resulting color,
such as blue or blue-green, is projected through the ridge of the
jewel body collar assembly (12) and the indicator appears to be blue
or blue-green. An alternative embodiment mounts the LED (70) on a
mount assembly which is fastened to the control shaft and which
extends into the interior of the control knob (10).

IPC: G01J5/04
Filed: 2009-08-04
Abstract: The invention relates to devices for measuring the temperature in microwave ovens and can be used in research and production for the automation of data storage, processing and measurement processes.The device consists of two independent systems: a complex measuring system (MS) and a system of protection against the effects of microwaves. The measuring system (MS) includes an electronic thermometer (T), sensitive to infrared radiation, a support (S) for thermometer fixation at a distance from the oven with an opening, through which the infrared radiation is measured, a computer (C), a switch and connectors. The protection system consists of three metal plates, joined in a packet, in which is made a door-blind with the possibility of closing/opening the oven opening, through which the measurements are carried out.The door-blind can be lifted by a solenoid, the iron core of which is connected to it.The solenoid is operated at the command by means of a synchronizer coupled with an oven magnetron control unit, so it can open the opening only in the period when there is no generation of microwaves.To ensure safety in case of blocking the door-blind in the open position, the device is equipped with a microswitch which interrupts the power of the magnetron and the generation of microwaves.
