Inventor: ARVIDSON LAWRENCE C
IPC: H02P7/29
Filed: 1994-02-09
Abstract: A fire-fighting system in which a liquid chemical foamant is introduced into the water stream in varying amounts so as to maintain a predetermined percentage mixture irrespective of variations in the water flow includes a motor-driven pump where the motor is controlled over first speed range by pulse width modulating the drive to the motor and over a second speed range, producing intermittent motion, by burst width modulating the drive signal when it is operating at its minimum pulse width modulated duty cycle. Using this technique the range of available motor speeds is extended well beyond that which can be achieved using pulse width modulation of the motor drive signal alone.

Abstract: A color separator using three joined prisms for color separation in projection displays. The configuration is compact, relatively simple to assemble, and eliminates a requirement for complicated optical components such as crossed dichroic beam splitters and large retrofocus projection lenses. The configuration is particularly advantageous for projectors based upon liquid crystal, reflective light valves or spatial light modulators (SLM). A first prism has a dichroic coating on an interface between the first and a second prism which reflects one primary color and transmits the other two primary colors. The light path through the first prism has a second reflection (total internal reflection) off the side of the first prism, and emerges normal to the third face of the first prism to a first SLM. The second prism has a dichroic coating at an interface of the second and a third prism which reflects one of the remaining two primary colors and transmits the third primary color. The second primary color is reflected toward the third face of the second prism and emerges normal to that surface to a second SLM. The third color passes through the third prism without any reflections and emerges normal to the surface of the third prism to a third SLM. The three prisms are optically contacted and cemented to one another at a first interface between the first and second prisms and at a second interface between the second and third prisms to form a single unit.

Abstract: A page wide piezoelectric ink jet print engine and a method of manufacturing the same. The page wide ink jet print engine includes lower and upper body parts, each formed from piezoelectric material and having a plurality of generally parallel, spaced projections. Lower side surfaces of the projections of the lower body part are conductively mounted to corresponding bottom side surfaces of the projections of the upper body part to define a plurality of generally parallel, axially extending ink-carrying channels from which ink may be ejected. The lower and upper body parts are then circumferentially poled such that, for the lower body part, first and second polarization fields respectively extend between the top side surface of each one of the projections and top side surfaces of first and second projections adjacent thereto and, for the upper body part first and second polarization fields respectively extend between the bottom side surface of each one of the projections and bottom side surfaces of first and second projections adjacent thereto. By applying voltage to selective ones of the projections, the channels may be selectively expanded to draw ink from an associated ink delivery system and compressed to cause the ejection of a droplet of ink therefrom.

Abstract: A TDMA radio communication system such as GSM has a limited time period (td) over which the transmission from a mobile station (MS1 .. MS5) can be advanced to allow for the transit time of the signal between the mobile and the base station (BS), and this limits the maximum range of the system to RI. By co-locating a first transceiver (TX1 /RX1) operating on a first frequency band (FI) and a second transceiver (TX2/RX2) operating on a second frequency band (FO), and delaying the reception time slots of RX2 by td, the first transceiver can be used for communication up to RI, and the second transceiver can be used for communication for mobiles between RI and RO. Idle mobiles are instructed to camp on FO and RX1 is switched during access request periods to look for access requests on FO.

Abstract: Two-part negative moulds for coreless moulding are formed using patterns which (as a consequence of their outer shape) cannot be separated from the mould in a straightforward, simple manner. Parts of the model preventing separation of the mould are removed; these parts are replaced by parts with an identical shape made of a material which during casting of the mould is neither deformed nor separated from the pattern. The material of the replaced pattern parts remains sufficiently soft not to damage the mould in the pattern removal process. As a consequence of the opposite effects of shrinkage of the moulding and expansion of the negative mould, a clearance (of the order of 5% in the case of clay mouldings) is produced which makes mould separation possible. The mould itself is also claimed.

Abstract: According to the present invention, an integrated regulator (10) having an adjustable reset threshold is disclosed. The integrated regulator has the following elements contained within an integrated circuit device: a transistor (20), a voltage reference block, an internal resistive network, an operational amplifier (22) which regulates the voltage output signal (15) of the integrated regulator by regulating the base current of the transistor, and a comparator (24) which senses and communicates to the user when the operational amplifier is unable to maintain the voltage output signal within an acceptable range of a desired value of the voltage output signal. External to the integrated circuit device is an external resistive network (R 1 ,R 2 ). When the reset output signal of the integrated regulator is equal to an active state, this is indicative that the operational amplifier has been unsuccessful in keeping the voltage output signal within the acceptable range of the desired value of the voltage output signal, i.e. the voltage output signal has fallen below the reset threshold or trip point of the integrated regulator. When the voltage output signal is back within the acceptable range of the desired value of the voltage output signal, the reset output signal of the integrated regulator is equal to an inactive state. The reset threshold of the integrated regulator may be easily and readily programmed by adjusting the external resistive network.
