Patent EP-0845932-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ISHII MITOSHI
IPC: H01L23/50
Filed: 1997-09-27
Abstract: A general-purpose lead bending machine for electronic components that is capable of bending leads of various types of electronic components without a need of a great variety of benders. The machine includes a lead holding device for holding the distal end of a lead of an electronic component. A first driving mechanism causes the lead holding device to move along a first axis of travel. A second driving mechanism causes the lead holding device to move along a second axis of travel perpendicularly intersecting the first axis of travel. A control device controls the first driving mechanism and the second driving mechanism such that the lead holding device holding the lead of the electronic component moves along an approximately circular arc-shaped locus, thereby bending the lead of the electronic component. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a cell switched communication system in which a source is connected to a network for transmission of cells to a network destination via a network element (1) having a plurality of ports (3,4), said source generating resource cells containing information concerning a bandwidth allocated to the source for transmitting cells, a method of providing flow control at the network element (1) comprises the steps of:
     (a) detecting a resource cell as it is received at an input port (3) of the network element;   (b) routing the resource cell to a resource cell processing means (2) common to all the ports of the network element;   (c) modifying information contained in the resource cell concerning the bandwidth allocation for the source on the basis of a determination of current utilisation of ports of the network element; and,   (d) passing the modified resource cell to an output port (4) of the network element for subsequent return to the source.   
     Resource management (RM) cells received at an input port (3) of a network element (1) in an ATM communication system are routed to a centralised resource cell processing means (2) where information in the resource cell relating to the bandwidth allocation of the source is modified to take account of the available bandwidth. The RM cell is subsequently passed back to the source to enable the source to modify its transmission rate to correspond to the modified allocated bandwidth for that source and thereby ensure that cells are not discarded by the network element due to traffic congestion.

Abstract: A method of and a system for controlling an inverse kinematics generated
animation of an articulated chain is described. A resolution plane in a default orientation is
computed by determining a root-effector vector extending from a root of an articulated chain
to an end effector of the articulated chain and letting the resolution plane extend through the
root-effector vector. A control icon representative of a position relative to the root is visually
displayed. The resolution plane of an articulated chain is manipulated by manipulating the
icon and re-determining the resolution plane using the root-effector vector and a root-control
vector extending from the root to the icon. The animation of the articulated chain is
constrained relative to the resolution plane and a solution of positions and orientations of all
limbs of the articulated chain in achieving a goal is computed and displayed.

Abstract: The method involves combining voltage pulses (U1,U2) of first and second converters with first and second degrees of modulation (m1,m2) so that a common voltage pulse (U1+U2) without gaps is produced. Preferably, during generation of the pulse width modulation using an undershoot method, the carrier signal of the first converter is shifted through an angle alpha with respect to the unchanged carrier signal of the second converter, where alpha is + or - half the sum of the degrees of modulation times 180 degrees. The combined voltage pulses are symmetrical to the previous and following combined voltage pulses. The carrier signals of the first converter with the first modulation degree are shifted by a first angle and the carrier signals of the second converter with the second modulation degree are shifted by a second angle.

Abstract: An apparatus for controlling the torque of an engine
(2) of a vehicle. The vehicle has a drive train for
transmitting power of the engine (2) to a driving wheel (W).
An electronic control unit (ECU)(71) corrects the fuel
injection amount based on the fluctuation of the engine speed
to reduce torsional vibration of the drive train. The engine
torque is regulated through the correction of the fuel
injection amount to reduce the torsional vibration. The ECU
(71) does not correct the fuel injection amount when the
engine speed is below a predetermined lower limit. The lower
limit is different for each shift position of the
transmission (36), so that the torsional vibration is
accurately reduced in any shift position.

head. The reliable motion is provided in a noncontact way, preferably by directing a laser
beam toward the mail piece and detecting a moving speckle pattern in the light scattered from
