Abstract: An interface protocol for the functional manipulation of complex devices such as personal telecommunication devices without the necesity of the visual feedback via textual or graphic data, wherein the sensor functions change with time rather than placement, so that a user action biases a binary state switch, which is correlated to a timed audible audio data stream, the correlation indicating the desired action selected by the user. The device can be embedded in a product such as a plush toy without altering the external aesthetics of the products.

Abstract: A multi-cylinder internal combustion engine with at least one cylinder row is equipped with a cylinder head housing containing intake and exhaust valves that feed combustion air to the cylinders and release combustion exhaust gases through an exhaust system via control devices in dependence of the position of the crankshaft. Devices for generating differing exhaust valve lift progressions of at least two cylinders arranged in one cylinder row are incorporated to reduce overlapping opening phases of these exhaust valves. The intake valve and the exhaust valve of one of the two cylinders are themselves in an overlapping opening phase. Thereby, a uniform filling rate of the cylinders with new gas is achieved, particularly on a V-8 engine with a 90°-bent crankshaft.

Abstract: A touch system using a plurality of infrared ("IR") transmitters and receivers, and a method of determining with increased resolution the location of a touch between the IR transmitters and receivers using on-axis and off-axis detection are disclosed. The inventive touch system and method use, in conjunction with the on-axis and off-axis detection, a coarse and fine sweep of the transmitters and receivers to increase the resolution of identified touch location. The method of determining a touch location involves selection and activation of particular off-axis infrared transmitter and receiver pairs determined from a triangulation interdependence between the x and y coordinates. The increased resolution of the identified touch location is achievable using the inventive system and method without the need for an increased number of IR transmitters and receivers and without the need for higher speed processing capability.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the enzymatic conversion of starch. Starch is enzymatically hydrolysed to a product with a desired and stable viscosity, this is achieved by ending the enzymatic activity by heating the product in the presence of sodium perborate. More specifically the invention relates to a dry composition comprising starch and sodium perborate. The addition of the perborate to the starch powder makes the subsequent enzymatic conversion of starch with alpha-amylase and the termination of the reaction much easier. The conversion then results in a product having a stable end viscosity. The product is preferably used in paper and corrugating industries, specifically in paper surface sizing and/or coating. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An Internet protocol address is individually assigned to a terminal, a packet service simulator, and the mobile telephone. The packet service simulator simulates a control signal of UTRAN or the like that is necessary for the mobile telephone and connects data traffic to an actual Internet after establishment of a packet call, thereby verifying the data traffic of the mobile telephone. The packet service simulator sends an Internet protocol packet generated from the terminal to its Ethernet address, receives a packet destined for the terminal and sends it to the mobile telephone. For this operation, the packet service simulator responds to the address resolution protocol (ARP) request of the terminal. The terminal is linked to the mobile telephone via a point-to-point protocol, and the mobile telephone and the packet service simulator are linked to an external Internet via an Ethernet instead of an air interface. The verification system and method enables development and verification of operations of the terminal and the mobile telephone related to the packet call in the situation in which all systems including UTRAN or the like are not embodied. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A drive device which is used in particular for the closing unit, the injection unit or the ejectors of an injection molding machine for plastics and which has a drive element which can be moved axially by an electric motor, and a hydraulic unit which can be moved in the same direction as the drive element by moving the latter. In drive devices for the applications, it is important to first of all perform a rapid regulating movement and then exert high forces. In a known drive device having these features, the hydraulic unit is a hydraulic cylinder which is adjusted by the electric motor via a stroke spindle during the regulating movement and to which pressure medium is fed via a valve for exerting a high force. In this known drive device, in addition to the electrical installation, a complete hydraulic system is also necessary. In addition, high reaction forces act on the stroke spindle. This is avoided wherein the hydraulic unit is a power transmission means having two pistons, which are movable relative to one another and differ from one another in the size of their effective areas, and having an intermediate part which together with the pistons encloses a pressure space filled with a pressure fluid, if the small piston having the smaller effective area is mechanically connected to the drive element, if the hydraulic unit can be moved as an entity for the regulating movement, and if, for exerting a high force by the large piston having the larger effective area, the intermediate part can be locked against displacement relative to a fixed frame.
