Patent EP-1290942-A3 (EP)
Inventor: ANDO TOSHIO
IPC: A01N3/02
Filed: 1999-12-28
Abstract: The present invention is a treatment method for preserving cut
flowers, which has a dehydration process for removing the tissue water of
cut flowers using a solvent, and a permeation process for letting
polyethylene glycol permeate after dehydration, to substitute the solvent by
polyethylene glycol, characterized in that the dehydration process is
effected while the cut flowers are fixed in a container having a proper
amount of a molecular sieve spread over its bottom and filled with a
solvent having a specific gravity smaller than that of water, wherein the
specific gravity of the solvent is measured to monitor the change of the
solvent in dehydratability, and the time when the specific gravity suddenly
rises is detected as the time for exchanging the molecular sieve for a new
one, to restore the dehydratability of the solvent, thereby allowing the
solvent to be used continuously and allowing the dehydration process to be
continued without waste of time. 
     Furthermore, if a washing process for washing the cut flowers
containing polyethylene glycol as a substitute of the tissue water by a
solvent not containing polyethylene glycol is added, the stickiness of the
cut flowers otherwise caused after a drying process can be prevented.

Abstract: A hybrid vehicle and a control method of the hybrid vehicle is provided, capable
of suppressing discharge of the battery at the time of starting a DC/DC converter and
suppressing temporal voltage drop of the battery. When the engine is in the idle state and
the power generated by the motor is not sufficient, the motor controller starts the DC/DC
converter at a low output voltage state, and the amount of power generated by the motor is
gradually increased at a speed without disturbing the idle rotation of the engine, and when
it is determined that the power generation by the motor is sufficiently high by comparing
the amount of power generation with the amount of power consumption at the output of
the DC/DC converter, the operation mode of the output variable DC/DC converter is
switched from the low voltage mode to the high voltage mode.

Abstract: A system and methods for allowing wireless users to make and send calls using a
second wireless billing number or "line" assigned to a single wireless telephone
advantageously requires no changes to the air interface or messaging protocol between a
Mobile Switching Center and the wireless telephone. The second line is provisioned in the
HLR. When the wireless telephone registers with a VLR, the HLR inserts the second billing
number. When making a call, the user flags that the second line or number is to be billed by
adding a predefined set of digits or characters to the called telephone number. The system
recognizes the digits and creates appropriate billing records for the second number. When a
call is received on the second billing number or line, the system recognizes that the call is
destined for the second billing number, and adds the predefined flag digits to the Calling
Party Number to be displayed. The user can recognize from the flag digits that the call was
received on the second billing number or line.

Abstract: A weight (11) for correcting imbalance in a rotary
element (13) includes a number of discrete elements (14).
The number of discrete elements (14) is selected to
substantially correct the imbalance. A piece of double
sided adhesive tape (16) has sufficient length for the
number of discrete elements (14) to be adhered to it. A
removable film (38) protects the adhesive on the side of
the tape opposite the side to which the discrete elements
(14) are adhered. The film (38) reduces the likelihood of
contamination of the adhesive until the film (38) is
removed to expose the adhesive on the side of the tape (16)
opposite the side to which the discrete elements (14) are
adhered, permitting the weight (11) to be applied to the
rotary element (13). Preferably the tape (16) is elastic
to enable it to stretch so that the weight (11) can be
attached to rotary elements (13) of different radius.
Preferably, each element (14) is coated on its entire
surface to prevent manual contact with the material for
which it is made.

to the user. 
     The peculiarity of this invention consists in the fact that the walls and the bottom come from the
union and from the subsequent folding of two or more sheets that contain at least one sheet of
material substantially transparent at sight and at least a sheet of papery material. Besides this
aspect, these two or more sheets are united in a solid manner by the corresponding longitudinal
borders through means of fixing. 
     The advantage is that the invention contains an equipment for the realisation of a structure of a
bag partially transparent that contains two lines of movement for tapes of the above mentioned
sheets, disposed coupled functionally speaking in a parallel manner for the longitudinal union of
the above mentioned tapes. 
     Each of these two lines is made of a cylinder of support for a coil of tapes of sheets and from
intermediate rolls that direct and stretch the tape unrolled by the bobbin. 
     There are present also means of advancement and synchronism of the relative advancement of
each tape of each line of movement 
     Between these two lines there are disposed means of fixing for the union of the borders of the
above mentioned contiguous tapes.

Abstract: A distortion compensation apparatus and
method for a power amplifier enable accurate
distortion compensation, even if frequency
amplitude deviation and group delay error are
present in the power amplifier. A reverse
distortion coefficient is read from a reverse
distortion coefficient table. A distortion
compensation process is performed on an incoming
signal using the read reverse distortion
coefficient. The distortion compensated signal is
amplified and transmitted by the power amplifier,
and the reverse distortion coefficient table is
updated based on the incoming signal before
distortion compensation, and the output signal of
the power amplifier. The relation between the phase
of the time difference value and the reverse
distortion coefficient is obtained from the reverse
distortion coefficient corresponding to a linear
operation domain of the power amplifier. A
frequency characteristic of a frequency
characteristic compensation filter, to which the
distortion compensated signal is supplied, is set
such that inclination of the phase of the reverse
distortion coefficient becomes small, thereby
accurate distortion compensation can be performed
even if frequency amplitude deviation is present in
the power amplifier.
