Title: Method and device for controlling a vehicle gearbox.
Inventor: NOACK MARCO
IPC: B60W10/10
Filed: 2002-05-16
Granted: 2005-02-09
Abstract: A method of controlling a vehicle automatic gearbox comprising a gearbox control unit which receives signals from wheel or gearbox output rotation sensors so that a direction of travel of the vehicle is taken into account in order to avoid critical vehicle and/or gearbox conditions such as vehicle stalling. When on an incline the sensors will indicate a backward movement of the vehicle and the control unit may apply brakes and/or increase engine torque, thereby preventing the vehicle rolling backwards and/or vehicle stalling. The control unit may control the vehicle so that it comes to a stop or slows down to a minimal speed or it may prevent a change to a higher gear when a forward gear is engaged. If a reverse gear is engaged a speed threshold may be increased if it is detected that the vehicle rolls backwards. The automated transmission is for off-road vehicles where an engine stall is critical since it deprives a drive of several supporting function, eg power-assisted steering, power brakes etc, after a short period of time.

Title: Optical encoder system
IPC: G01D5/347
Filed: 1981-07-22
Granted: 1983-12-14
Abstract: An optical code disc includes a fine track which provides a high resolution signal, at least one V scan natural binary track synchronized to the fine track by lead and lag detectors, and Gray code tracks which provide the most significant bits of the digital output of the encoder system. The number of circuit elements in the multiplier circuitry associated with the fine track are reduced by means of a quadrant switching technique whereby the sinusoidal inputs to the multiplier are repeated through each quadrant of the fine track cycle. The V scan and Gray code tracks are optically multiplexed to reduce the number of leads from the optical detector. The use of both V scan and Gray code tracks minimizes the number of detectors required in the system while maintaining large detector signals from each track. The V scan and Gray code outputs are synchronized by the use of an overlapping bit.

Title: Digital filters for remote control receivers
Inventor: MUELLER BEAT
IPC: H03H17/02
Filed: 1983-09-16
Granted: 1986-03-05
Abstract: In providing digital filters for remote control receivers, in particular, for audio-frequency centralized ripple control receivers in an economic manner, it is advantageous to be able to use a processor unit with as low a bit number as possible (for example, an 8-bit microcomputer). In a conventional design of a filter according to the prior art, the dynamic range which is provided with an 8-bit processor element is insufficient in ensuring a perfect operation of the filter when a quality factor Q of about 30 is needed for the intended purpose of use and, on the other hand, when the dynamic range of the wanted signal which is given in practice is taken into consideration. A solution is indicated which overcomes these difficulties, which particularly involves the selected arrangement of zeros in the pass-band of the filter.

Title: Disk drive controller
Inventor: SANDER WENDELL
IPC: G11B20/10
Filed: 1987-08-25
Granted: 1992-02-12
Abstract: A disc drive controller has read post compensation which corrects for peak shift effects on discs with insufficient precompensation. The data is recorded in Manchester (MFM) format and read into circuitry including SCT counter (451) which loads parameters representing a cell with a short-cell (2 unit) following it and LCT counter (453) which loads parameters representing a cell with a long cell (3 or 4 unit) following it. Bound detector 455 counts the number of pulses between transitions and shift registers (457, 459) store the number of pulses generated by the respective counters to enable the bound detector to generate peak shift compensated pulses. The controller has a programmable parameter scheme which makes it possible to read and write 3 1/2 inch variable and fixed speed drives, as well as standard 5 1/4 inch drives. Additionally, there is a plus/minus rate multiplier to correct for symmetry and frequency errors. The use of half clock circuits to provide half clock resolution in the signal being written to and read from the disk is provided with the capability of operating at continuously variable clock speeds and data rates dynamically programmable by the computer. <IMAGE>

Title: Steam sterilising fabrics after conditioning cycle - with cycle modification dependent on load characteristics e.g. absorbency
IPC: A61L/
Filed: 1979-02-28
Granted: 1986-02-03
Abstract: A load of material which may include hard and soft goods is placed in a sealable chamber and steam sterilised. Prior to the sterilising operation the load is conditioned by removing air and heating. During this conditioning phase the pressure is lowered until a predetermined time has elasped and a predetermined low pressure has been reached. When this condition is satisfied the pressure is increased to a preset maximum value at which point a second conditioning cycle is activated. Pref. there are four such conditioning cycles. The method sterilises mixed goods, esp. fabrics. The method adapts the sequence in response to different loads of goods. For a large load evacuation continues until a low pressure is reached; for a small load where evacuation is rapid the evacuation continues beyond this low value to allow air to be released from the goods.

Filed: 1985-06-21
Granted: 1987-09-30
Abstract: The unit maintains the safety of the operator with the operations involving workpieces handling, shot peening and detonation coating with enhanced efficiency and reliability of the continuous process. The unit has a sound proofing chamber, a conveyor from the shot peening set to the detonation coating set and comprises compartments with ports. The conveyor uses a stepped drive housing with axis equidistant from the compartment openings and is provided with radially moved carriers. After the automatic unit is switched on the controller (62) counts the number of shots of the detonator coater (13), while the blank is set in the carrier (18), and the protective screen (31) is brought into contact with the workpiece. The shot blasting set (15) is turned on for peening the surface of the workpiece, the spent shot deflected from the workpiece and the screen dropping to the receivers in the chamber (16). The fines are entrained to the scrubber (25), and the workpiece is coated by the detonation set which generates an intensive noise penetrating through the perforations of the screens (63) to impinge the basalt fibres (64) which damp the noise.

Granted: 1985-10-07
Abstract: Secured within the cap of the pen etc. is the letter opener (18) which includes an elongated finger (20) the distal end of which (22) is pointed enough to enable it to be inserted into the small loop that is formed between a folded paper, e.g. under the flap of a conventional envelope. Carried on the finger to extend upward is a razor sharp blade (24) which will slice through the top of the flap. Pref., the blade extends completely across the space between the finger and an overlying hood portion (26). When the letter opener is in place in the cap of the pen (10) the finger (20) is exposed through an opening (27) which is provided in the cap (28), and extends at least as far back as the cutting blade (24). Hence, the cap (28) forms a shield or hood extension which embraces the blade and finger on both sides, leaving an opening between its depending sides (30) and (31) and the finger which is too small to permit entry of a human finger.
