Patent EP-0645889-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BERGMANN MARTIN DIPL-ING
IPC: H03K17/0814
Filed: 1993-09-13
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for limiting the rate of current decrease at switch-off of semiconductor power switches (2) with MOS control input (G). According to the invention, at switch-off a countervoltage (uLE) which is fed back to a gate emitter voltage (UGE) present across the semiconductor power switch (2) is generated as a function of an inductance (38). This feedback thus raises the gate-emitter voltage (uGE) as a result of which the switch-off rate is effectively reduced without delay without increasing the storage time of the semiconductor power switch (2) or influencing the switch-on behaviour. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A dynamic semiconductor memory cell 72 includes a trench 81 having an insulating film 74 that is used as a dielectric material of a memory capacitor, and a MOSFET 80 that is formed by a process including a step of transforming a polysilicon film 85 on the insulating film 74 into a single crystal. The adjacent trenches are insulated by the insulating film 74 and the MOSFET of the Semiconductor-on-Insulator structure is used to provide a structure which can prevent a leak current, does not need highly accurate mask positioning, and can provide a higher degree of integration. The SOI MOSFET is deposited on the same insulating film 74 that is used as a dielectric material in the capacitor. By keeping the surface of the insulating film 74 over the substrate 71 flush with that of the storage electrode layer 73 the SOI MOSFET can be formed without a contact opening step for the source 76.

IPC: H05B41/392
Filed: 1993-11-04
Abstract: A circuit and method for powering a high intensity discharge lamp, such as a high pressure sodium lamp (HPSL) are disclosed. Feedback control is used to achieve a nearly constant lamp power despite considerable variations in lamp impedance resulting from aging of the lamp or other causes. The feedback control also achieves a nearly constant amplitude of lamp current so as to attain nearly constant lamp color in a HPSL, and further accommodates considerable variations in a.c. line voltage. The circuit, which shares some features with the method, includes a circuit to supply a d.c. bus voltage and first and second feedback-controlled circuits. The first feedback-controlled circuit regulates on a conductor supplying bus current the bus voltage in response to a first error signal in such manner as to minimize the first error signal. The first error signal is substantially proportional to the difference between (1) a dynamic signal substantially proportional to peak lamp current and (2) a set point signal for peak lamp current. The second feedback-controlled circuit drives the lamp in response to a second error signal in such manner as to minimize the second error signal and thereby regulate power in the lamp. The second error signal is substantially proportional to the difference between (1) a dynamic signal substantially proportional to average bus current and (2) a dynamic set point signal substantially proportional to the difference between (i) a dynamic signal substantially proportional to the regulated bus voltage and (ii) a set point signal relating to lamp power.

Abstract: To avoid vibrations in printing machines, in particular web-fed rotary printing machines, which originate from the axial stroke movements of the distributing rollers (9, 12, 20), there is arranged a compensating mass (42) which is mounted so as to be displaceable along guides (41). The reciprocating movement of the compensating mass is effected by means of a drive device (46, 47, 48, 49) which drives the compensating mass (42) in phase with the axial stroke of the distributing roller (9), but in the opposite direction. As a result, the mass forces acting on the machine frame and arising from the axial stroke movements of the distributing roller (9) are compensated. <IMAGE>

Title: Method of conducting catalytic converter multi-phase reaction.
Inventor: RYTTER ERLING
IPC: C10G2/00
Filed: 1993-02-24
Abstract: A method of conducting a continuous multi-phase catalytic reaction such as the conversion of syngas to higher hydrocarbon fuels. Gaseous reactants are introduced via a gas permeable plate into a slurry which includes the product and a finely divided catalyst. The liquid product is separated from the remainder of the slurry by means of a filter unit including a filter member. A pressure differential is established across the filter member by means of a constant level device within the filter unit which maintains a level of filtrate within the filter unit below the level of the slurry. The slurry is maintained in a constant state of agitation by the introduction of the gaseous components as a steam of bubbles. Fluctuations in the pressure differential across the filter member prevent the filter member from clogging, and the gas space is above the filtrate and the slurry are in communication.

Abstract: A damper far railway vehicles, comprises two 'rubber' bellows (7) connected by a nozzle (1). The nozzle consists of a tapered orifice in the form of two conical bores, apex to apex, diverging from a common cross-section (3), this unit being completely full of a damping fluid (9) which consists of soft-iron particles suspended in oil or hydraulic fluid. This whole unit extends between two fluid containers (8, 10) which are compressed differentially from a double acting master cylinder (19). Such differential pressure causes one bellows (7) to be compressed and the other to expand so pumping the damping fluid through the nozzle (1) and exerting a damping force, which is controlled by the current supplied to a coil (5). In an alternative device, the damper is mounted in a piston (Fig. 3). <IMAGE>

Inventor: BIDESE WERNER
IPC: H04M1/715
Filed: 1994-01-29
Abstract: The circuit arrangement according to the invention monitors a transmission line (ÜL) with respect to the transmission of activation signals and is itself capable of outputting activation signals to the transmission line (ÜL). After an activation signal has been detected, the circuit arrangement initiates the activation of a device (EG) connected to the transmission line (ÜL), which, as a result, is displaced from the idle state into the normal operating state. The device (EG) is therefore in each case only in the normal operating state when it is actually used by the user. Overall, this results in much lower loading on the power supply units. Furthermore, the circuit arrangement according to the invention allows the reliable detection of actuation signals even when there are still noise or information signals on the transmission line (ÜL). <IMAGE>
