Patent EP-0781696-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SAWADA MAMORU
IPC: B60T8/00
Filed: 1996-12-18
Abstract: When a vehicle is in a braking state, an oscillating device such as a pump (40) applies oscillation to a seal member (105) in a wheel cylinder. In detail, oscillation is applied to the seal member (105) via brake fluid due to brake fluid pressure pulsation caused by pumping operation of the pump (40). As a result, since the seal member (105) has a kinetic friction characteristic, a responsiveness from supplying brake fluid to the wheel cylinder to the movement of the piston (102) disposed in the wheel cylinder can be improved. Accordingly, optimal brake force can be applied to the wheel.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil pour appliquer avec précision une corde (12) sur un mandrin (14) rotatif. Cet appareil utilise la commande de la longueur de la corde comme paramètre de commande, et non pas la tension de la corde. L'appareil comprend un mandrin (14) sur une surface extérieure duquel est fixée une membrane gonflable (54). Cette dernière (54) peut être gonflée, de manière sélective, à l'aide d'une vanne de commmande (58) et d'une source de fluide sous pression pour ajuster dynamiquement une circonférence du mandrin (14) lors de l'entrée d'une commande. Cette dernière lit une tension dans la corde (12) en train d'être enroulée. La corde (12) est fournie de manière appropriée au mandrin (14) en fonction d'un algorithme défini à partir de la forme, de la circonférence et de la vitesse de rotation du mandrin et non pas de l'avance de la corde (12). Cet appareil comporte un cabestan d'entraînement (18) à commande électronique. Il comprend, en outre, une roue de dépose (30) de la corde qui isole les forces dirigées dans le sens radial des forces dirigées dans le sens de la circonférence. Selon un deuxième mode de réalisation, la courroie est entraînée en rotation par des première et deuxième poulies (14A, 14B) tandis que la corde (12) est appliquée. Un entraxe entre la première et la deuxième poulie (14A, 14B) peut être ajusté de manière sélective pour contrôler la tension de la corde (12).

Title: Method and device for spectral remission measurement
Inventor: WENDT KARSTEN DR
IPC: G01N21/27
Filed: 1997-07-02
Abstract: The detection method involves impacting measurement fields with a beam of a stationary illuminating device. The measurement fields move with a speed relative to the measurement system. The beam or radiation has an intensity which varies in dependence on the relative speed. The radiation remitted from the measurement fields is further processed with photoelectric conversion to provide measurement signals. The illuminating device is controlled in dependence on the relative speed between the measurement fields and the measurement system. With respective relative speeds the spectral intensity distribution of the light source is detected. The spectral light intensity distribution is taken into account in processing the radiation reflected from the measurement fields.

Abstract: This invention is a method of decoding a stream of
video image data transmitted as independent image frames
consisting of plural marcoblocks transmitted in a
nonsequential order. The method defines a sub-frame
corresponding to a proper subset of the full frame. The
method determines if a currently received macroblock is
within the sub-frame (310). The method decodes the
sub-frame (311). The sub-frame may be decoded at less than
or equal to the frame rate of the video image data. The
method may also decode a full frame of video image data
(308) at a full frame decode rate less than the sub-frame
decode rate. The method determines if a currently received
frame is within the a subset of frames to be fully decoded
(307). The method preferably employs a digital camcorder
to generate the stream of video image data and a notebook
computer for decoding and display.

Abstract: Disclosed is a gas sensor comprising inner pumping electrodes (64a to 64d) arranged on upper and lower surfaces and both side surfaces in a first chamber (60) so that O 2  contained in a measurement gas (G) introduced through a first diffusion rate-determining section (56) is effectively removed by the aid of a pumping voltage (Vp1) applied between the inner pumping electrodes (64a to 64d) and an outer pumping electrode (66). After the removal of O 2 , the measurement gas (G) is introduced into a second chamber (62) through a second diffusion rate-determining section (58) so that oxides contained in the measurement gas (G) are decomposed by the aid of a detecting electrode (82), or O 2  is bound to inflammable gases contained in the measurement gas (G). An amount of oxygen moved or transported in accordance therewith is measured to determine the concentration of the oxides or the inflammable gases. Accordingly, the oxygen contained in the measurement gas can be effectively controlled, making it possible to highly accurately measure the oxides or the inflammable gases.
