Filed: 1999-11-18
Abstract: The peripheral unit (3) receives a bitstream from the control device (1) via a first communications interface (2). The bitstream is used to determine if at least one of a group of drivers is suitable for communication via the first interface. One driver is selected and transmitted to the peripheral device, where it is installed. Independent claims are included for a peripheral device and for a system for setting up a communication connection to a control device.
Patent EP-1051478-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NISSING NICHOLAS JAMES
IPC: C11D17/04
Filed: 1999-01-25
Abstract: Disclosed are disposable cleansing articles (1) which comprise a multi-phase, multi-component emulsion (5) and an activation web (2) that facilitates activation of the emulsion during use. In a preferred embodiment, the multi-phase emulsion is a high internal phase inverse emulsion having a continuous external lipid phase and a discontinuous internal polar phase. During use, the activation web facilitates breakage of the emulsion's external phase, thereby releasing the internal phase for its desired use. Because the internal liquid phase may account for up to about 97 % of the emulsion, significant levels of fluid (e.g., water or a polar liquid) may be delivered from a "dry" wipe.

Patent EP-1057088-A1 (EP)
Inventor: RAFFESTIN LUC
IPC: H02M5/257
Filed: 1999-02-16
Abstract: The invention concerns a method for controlling the dissipation of a power alternating electric signal, which consists in causing an alternating signal period rank (Reg3) to correspond (63) with the inverse binary (Reg4) of a digitised set value, thereby showing that thus the dissipation periods are ideally distributed among the non-dissipation periods. The main result thereof is to reduce the blinking effects which are particularly crippling when the rising time of the element to be controlled is short relative to the alternating electric signal period.

The substrate comprises a belt with a plurality of transversely extending triangular fingers, each finger tip with a dosage thereon. Each finger is snapped in sequence against an anvil while a clamp secures the belt as the fingers are deflected. The spring fingers are corrugated in one embodiment cooperating with an anvil having channels and a device for inducing agglomeration breakup air streams through the channels. Other embodiments are for impact deflection of a dosage carrying substrate in a cartridge or cassette against an anvil to release the dosages.

Abstract: A radio receiver comprises an input (10) coupled to first and second quadrature related low-IF frequency translation stages (20, 21) generating IF signals at substantially half the channel bandwidth or channel spacing. The IF signals which may be optionally filtered in a pre-filter (28), for example a polyphase filter, are applied to first and second cross-coupled continuous time, low pass Sigma-Delta modulators (30) comprising for example transconductor-capacitor integrators, all but the first integrators of which are cross-coupled by gyrators set to resonate at the IF frequency. Outputs of the Sigma-Delta modulators (30) comprise 1 bit oversampled signals. The oversampled signals in one embodiment are filtered in first decimation stages (32, 34) which provide anti-aliasing. The decimated signals are derotated (38, 40) and decimated in a second decimation means (42, 44) to provide outputs at base band. The outputs are equalised and demodulated to provide an output (48). The input signal may be frequency translated to zero IF and then filtered in low pass filters.

Abstract: An adjustable intake pipe, especially for supplying combustion air to an internal combustion engine, which includes a collector chamber arranged in an essentially cylindrical control element. The collector chamber has a larger volume than required for the air supply, so the chamber is not used efficiently. In the invention, the collector chamber volume is used by arranging additional components of the intake tract defined by the intake pipe, i.e. of an internal combustion engine, within the collector chamber (11), for example, by arranging a resonance chamber (20) therein with the resonance chamber connected to the air supply system by through holes (19). This arrangement better utilizes the chamber volume and is particularly advantageous in motor vehicle engine compartments where limited space is available. The intake system also is more compact and has a lower overall weight.
