Title: Security control circuit for computer system power switch
Inventor: WANG CHENG-CHIH
IPC: G06F21/31
Filed: 1998-05-22
Abstract: The circuit is installed in a computer system, which includes one main board, one power supply and one keyboard. The circuit keyboard intercept unit (45) intercepts a keyboard signal between the keyboard and keyboard controller interface of the main board, when the computer system is in power off state. A keyboard input data decoder (41) accept the keyboard signal intercepted by the keyboard intercept unit and decodes it.  A first-in first-out buffer, connected to the output end of the keyboard input data decoder, buffers the decoded keyboard data with predetermined format by first-in first-out sequence. A password data memory stores the computer system power-on password. A comparison unit has two inputs separately receiving the first-in first-out buffer output and password data memory output. It compares them to see if both match and outputs the comparison result. A power supply controller unit receives the comparison result which is then used to decide whether to start up power supply to power on the computer system, if the password input by a user matches a preset password.

Title: Brake assembly for a vehicle, particularly industrial trucks
Inventor: RUMMEY TIMOTHY JOHN
IPC: B60T13/74
Filed: 1999-01-12
Abstract: A brake body (3,53) is urged to engage a brake rotor (1,51) by a spring (11,61) via a force transmission lever (10,60) for parking braking. An actuator (9,59) acts to reduce the air gap between an electromagnet (12,62) and the lever so that the energized electromagnet generates sufficient force to counteract that of the spring. The actuator can urge the brake body towards the rotor irrespective of whether or not the electromagnet is energized. The actuator, which may be a hydraulic cylinder, is controlled by a suitable control element such as a brake pedal, and the electromagnet is energized via a switch whereby the activation of the electromagnet when the air gap has been suitable reduced by the actuator acts to release the parking brake.
