Abstract: A crank mechanism for a reciprocating compressor is described, which can be of the double acting type or of the type provided with opposite single acting cylinders (26A, 26B). The crank mechanism is made up of a crank shaft (10) that, through a connecting rod (12), transforms its rotary motion into reciprocating motion. The connecting rod (12) receives the motion from the shaft (10) and transmits it to a cross head (14) through a jack (16). The cross head (14) is in turn, normally, made up of two shoes, a lower one (42) and an upper one (40), guided by respective fixed counter-shoes (18, 20) and transmits its reciprocating motion to the piston (22, 22A, 22B) through a rod (24). One (40) of the sliding shoes is equipped with a surface for making contact with the tracks (18, 20) having different shape and/or size with respect to the contact surface of the opposite sliding shoe (42).

Abstract: The method for efficient target detection from images robust to occlusion disclosed by the present invention detects the presence and spatial location of a number of objects in images. It consists in (i) an off-line method to compile an intermediate representation of detection probability maps that are then used by (ii) an on-line method to construct a detection probability map suitable for detecting and localizing objects in a set of input images efficiently. The method explicitly handles occlusions among the objects to be detected and localized, and objects whose shape and configuration is provided externally, for example from an object tracker. The method according to the present invention can be applied to a variety of objects and applications by customizing the method's input functions, namely the object representation, the geometric object model, its image projection method, and the feature matching function.

Abstract: One A/D converter (1) and the other A/D converter (2) have a common power supply voltage and sample an A/D conversion value at short time intervals and at a long time intervals, respectively. Both the A/D converter (1) and the A/D converter (2) are set in a constant active state (continuous conversion mode). This allows the total consumption current (Ia) combining the consumption current (Ia1) of the A/D converter (1) and the consumption current (Ia2) of the A/D converter (2) to be constant, so that the power supply voltage (Vcc) is stabilized and a stable A/D conversion value can be obtained from each of the A/D converters.

Abstract: A proxy device such as a firewall uses an internal socket namespace such as a text string such that connection requests must be explicitly redirected to a listening socket in the alternate namespace in order to connect to a service. Because external connections cannot directly address the listening socket or service, greater security is provided than with traditional firewall or proxy devices. To receive a redirected proxy connection, a service process creates a listening socket and binds a name in an alternate namespace to the socket before listening for connections.
