Patent EP-1619389-A3 (EP)
Inventor: DOEPKER ROY JOSEPH
IPC: F01C1/04
Filed: 2000-09-20
Abstract: A scroll compressor includes a capacity modulation system. The capacity modulation system has a piston that is connected to the non-orbiting scroll that disengages the non-orbiting scroll from the orbiting scroll when a pressure chamber is placed in communication with the suction chamber of the compressor. The non-orbiting scroll member moves into engagement with the orbiting scroll when the chamber is placed in communication with the discharge chamber. The engagement between the two scrolls is broken when the pressure chamber is placed in communication with fluid from the suction chamber. A solenoid valve controls the communication between the pressure chamber and the suction chamber. By operating the valve in a pulsed width modulated mode, the capacity of the compressor can be infinitely varied between zero and one hundred percent.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for controlling a privacy mask display includes a monitoring camera which is if tilted and its tilt angle becomes greater than 90° when a privacy mask to mask a specific target object in a captured image frame is displayed, an image and the privacy mask in the frame are rotated 180° with respect to the CCD center axis, and the optical center axis stored in the apparatus is also rotated 180° with respect to the CCD center axis. Afterwards, if the zoom ratio of the monitoring camera changes, the size and position of the privacy mask are adjusted relative to the optical center axis rotated 180° with respect to the CCD center axis. It is therefore possible to freely perform zooming and tilting operations without danger of exposing the privacy-protected target object even under the condition that the optical center axis and the CCD center axis of the monitoring camera do not coincide.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for protecting digital content in a digital rights management (DRM) system. The method comprises re-importing a second content file, which was imported from a first content file, as a third content file, and includes determining whether to allow the re-importing of the second content file based on a difference between a current usage bind of the content determined in an import process and an original usage bind of the content and changing a usage bind of the content from the current usage bind to the original usage bind based on the result of determination. Therefore, when the usage bind of content, which had to be a domain bound, was inevitably determined to be a device bound due to a situation at the time of a content import process, the content can be freely used in the domain bound, which is the original usage bind of the content, according to usage constraints information (UCI) of the content.

Abstract: It is known that corrugated plate heat exchangers can have good thermal and hydraulic performance but limitations with regard to operational pressures whilst conventional tube type heat exchangers can achieve high pressure operation but can have high flow pressure losses due to the configuration of such tubes. By arranging a tube stack comprising respective tubes 2a, 3a arranged in layers typically one upon the other with cross junctions 4 between them and intersticial gaps between tubes it is possible to create swirling spinning motion in the flow possibly inside and at least outside the tubes for improved heat exchange with only limited flow restriction. The swirling flow in the heat exchanger matrix outside of the tubes passes along channels formed by the interconnecting intersticial gaps between the tubes and is guided about those tubes for heat exchange. Typically, a multitude of stack layers is combined such that association between the stack layers prevents in operation lateral and vertical movements as well as vibration of the tubes.
