Patent EP-0733971-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BROWNELL DAVID M
IPC: G06F15/16
Filed: 1996-03-07
Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing connections between objects in a distributed object system includes a method and apparatus for terminating connections between objects. In one aspect, the method for terminating a connection, a connection end message is sent from a server to a client indicating to the client that the server will no longer accept requests before the connection is terminated. Preferably a connection end code is included with the connection end message. In another aspect, the invention includes a method for making connections between objects are formed by intelligently closing existing connections that meet the criteria of being established and across which no unfulfilled requests or unforwarded replies are pending. If several connections meet these criteria, the oldest unused connection is terminated. The methods and apparatus described provide for the creation and termination of connections efficiently and robustly by allowing the controlled shut down of connections between clients and servers without invoking an error state.

Abstract: A sprocket assembly in the form of a subassembly (1,2) including a spider-type sprocket support (10) which supports first and second sprockets (20,30). The sprocket support (10) includes a boss (11) and a plurality of supporting arms (15) extending radially outward from the boss (11). Each supporting arm includes a first mounting surface (16) and a second mounting surface (17) opposite the first mounting surface in an end region of the supporting arm (15). The first sprocket (20) is mounted to the first mounting surface (16) of each supporting arm, and the second sprocket (30) is mounted to the second mounting surface (17) of each supporting arm. A difference between the number of teeth on the first sprocket and the number of teeth on the second sprocket is small, e.g. from one to three teeth. The subassembly may include fastening means (6) in the form of an attachment pin which extends through a first sprocket opening (21) in the first sprocket (20), a second sprocket opening (31) in the second sprocket (30), and an attachment opening (18) in a corresponding supporting arm (15), which fastens the first sprocket (20) and the second sprocket (30) to the respective first mounting surface (16) and second mounting surface (17). A multiple sprocket assembly includes one or more suitably disposed sprocket subassemblies (1,2). One or more third sprockets (3a, 3b, 3c) may be disposed in a row with the first sprocket and the second sprocket of the, or each, subassembly.

IPC: H03F3/30
Filed: 1996-12-05
Abstract: The invention is an operational amplifier (50) having an output stage (52) for enhancing the output driver capability near the negative source voltage (66). The output stage of the invention includes a voltage detector (M14) in combination with a current redirector (82) or redirecting arrangement. The voltage detector (M14) converts the voltage difference between the amplifier output (76) and the input to the output stage of the amplifier to a control current, which is redirected at the positive source voltage and applied to the negative output driver (84). The current redirector (82), which is operably connected to the voltage detector, allows the amplifier output to be driven at full rated current (e.g., approximately 40mA) close to the negative source voltage (e.g., within approximately 1.5 volts) while maintaining an output configuration appropriate for stability.

Abstract: A control system for a vehicle calculates a desired driving force required by the vehicle in response to operating conditions of the vehicle including an amount of operation of an accelerator pedal of the vehicle (22), and controls the driving force of the vehicle, based on the calculated desired driving force. The desired driving force is corrected depending on whether the vehicle is in a particular operating condition. For example, when the vehicle is in a standing condition while traveling on a road congested with traffic when the desired driving force is corrected in the decreasing direction, the correction amount of the desired driving force in the decreasing direction is corrected to a value closer to zero. The desired driving force is also corrected according to a time period over which the particular operating condition continues.

Abstract: In a free form machining tool 10 for machining a surface to be machined while
bringing the lower end into contact with the surface to be machined by a rotation
around an axis z, the tool comprises a spherical tool 12 having a spherical surface
machining section 13 on the lower portion, and a bearing 14 for supporting the
spherical tool by an axis a of rotation which passes through the center O of the
spherical surface and is different from the axis. The tool also includes rotating means
16 (for example, a turbine) for rotating the spherical tool around the axis of rotation.
Thus, even if the spherical surface machining section comes into contact with the
surface to be machined on the axis (radius: 0) of the tool, the spherical surface
machining section is rotated around the axis a of rotation which is different from the
axis z. Therefore, a peripheral speed of the axis is not zero (0). It is possible to
efficiently work a freely curved surface with high accuracy and high quality by the use
of a conventional three-axial NC machining apparatus.

Abstract: A client is coupled to a modem pool and a server by a communication link in a wide area network. The client allows a user to browse the World Wide Web in response to user inputs entered entirely from a remote control device using a television set as a display device. The communication link to the client is shared by a telephone circuit at the client end of the link. A disruption in communication with the server may occur due to a Call Waiting signal caused by an incoming telephone call. The incoming call includes Caller ID information. In response to such a disruption, communication with the server is terminated. After pausing for a predetermined period of time, the client automatically re-establishes communication with the server if the line is clear. Upon reconnecting to the server, the client accesses a "White Pages" telephone directory Web site on a remote server. Using the number provided in the Caller ID information, the client looks up the name of the caller from the directory and stores the number and the corresponding name. Each time an incoming call is subsequently received from that number, the client displays the name of the calling party to the user as the call is received.

Abstract: The tracking of mobile terminals served by base stations supported by
respective switches formed into respective peer groups of switches in which the
peer groups are then formed into a hierarchical logical network having a
prescribed number of levels of scope S, and in which individual ones of the
switches serve as a home switch for respective ones of said wireless terminals is
enhanced. Specifically, responsive to receiving a registration message sent by one
of the wireless terminals, the receiving switch notifies the home switch associated
with the sending terminal. The home switch, in turn, notes the current location of
that terminal and sends a similar message to the switch serving the zone in which
the sending wireless terminal was last located. The latter switch, responsive to
receipt of the message sets a pointer that points to (a) the current location of the
sending wireless terminal if the switch is within the scope of the current location
of the sending terminal or (b) the home switch if the switch is outside of the scope
of the current location of the sending terminal.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un tissu destiné à une prothèse endovasculaire. Le tissu, qui est biostable, est constitué d'un fil sensiblement non élastomère, extensible au moins dans une direction, de préférence dans le sens de la trame. L'extensibilité du tissu est due à l'introduction d'une non-linéarité dans un fil (tel qu'un fil de polyester ou de polytétrafluoroéthylène) utilisé pour le tisser. Le fil non linéaire est maintenu dans cette forme par un agent qui peut lui-même être un fil. La souplesse du tissu obtenue est avantageusement impartie au fil non linéaire avant la libération de l'agent. Dans l'un des modes de réalisation préférés, le fil, qui est un fil de polyester, est crêpé ou torsadé autour de l'agent, qui est un fil de PVAL. Après tissage, on lave le tissu dans de l'eau très chaude, de façon à thermofixer le fil insoluble dans l'eau dans sa forme non linéaire et à dissoudre sélectivement l'agent. L'invention concerne également une prothèse endovasculaire comprenant ledit tissu.
