IPC: H02P6/16
Filed: 1988-07-19
Abstract: A method and circuit arrangement for controlling the commutation of coil sets of a direct current motor with a fixed sensor, in which a sensor signal (S1) having a first period (T1) related to the speed of rotation of the motor rotor is generated during each revolution of the rotor, including the steps of: producing a control signal having a period equal to the sum of the first period (T1) and a second period (T2) proportional to the first period (T1); and at the end of the period of the control signal, starting commutation of a first one of the coil sets.

Patent EP-0284345-A3 (EP)
Title: An improved anvil and driver assembly for a surgical skin stapling instrument
IPC: A61B17/068
Filed: 1988-03-22
Abstract: An anvil and driver assembly for a surgical skin stapling instrument (1) producing formed and implanted skin staples (24) of more consistant and perfect configuration. The anvil (12) provides an anvil surface which supports the crown (25) of the staple during the forming operation. The driver (6) has an inverted U-shaped notch (45a) formed therein which defines parallel side edges (46, 47) to bend the staple legs (26, 29) about the anvil and a transverse edge joining the side edges and adapted to contact the crown of the staple near the end of the forming operation. In the anvil and driver assembly of the present invention, the clearance between the parallel bending edges (51, 52) of the driver and the adjacent anvil edges is greater than the transverse dimension of the staple wire. The anvil surface (18a) of the anvil is concave and the crown contacting edge of the driver is so configured as to impart a temporary bow in the staple crown near the bottom of the driver stroke, which bow is of such dimension as to preclude plastic deformation of the crown. This produces a more generous bend and a slight over-bend at the junctures of the staple legs and the crown such that when the crown is released by the driver and returns to its rectilinear state, this action of the crown will compensate for the natural spring-back properties of the material from which the staple is made at the above noted junctures, consistantly producing the desired final formed configuration of the staple.

Title: Ultra-rapid annealing of nonoriented electrical steel
IPC: C21D1/26
Filed: 1989-03-17
Abstract: Ultra-rapid annealing of nonoriented electrical steel is conducted at a 
rate above 100°C per second on prior to or as part of the strip decarburization 
and/or annealing process to provide an improved texture and, thereby, 
improved permeability and reduced core loss. During the ultra-rapid heating 
of cold-rolled strip, the recrystallization texture is enhanced by more 
preferential nucleation of {100}<uvw> and {110}<uvw> oriented crystals and 
reduced formation of {111}<uvw> oriented crystals. The preferred practice 
has a heating rate above 262°C per second to a peak temperature between 
750°C and 1150°C and held at temperature for 0 to 5 minutes.

Patent EP-0350829-A3 (EP)
Title: Selective protective device against short-circuit currents
IPC: H01H71/10
Filed: 1989-07-10
Abstract: Selective automatic main circuit-breaker In known selective automatic main circuit-breakers, the disconnection point in the main current path is periodically closed, resulting in higher I<2>t let-through values given a short-circuit current disconnection in a given short-circuit current range. This problem is remedied, in that, after the first short-circuit pulse has been limited, the re-closing of the main contact point is carried out only given nominal operating conditions, and is time-controlled by a selectivity device (33) located in a shunt current path connected in parallel with the main current path. Preferred application area of the novel selective automatic main circuit-breaker are low-voltage distribution systems, especially building installations. <IMAGE>

Title: Method and system for halfreducing binary image
IPC: G06T3/40
Filed: 1989-10-30
Abstract: Odd or even line data of a binary image stored in 
an image memory (11) is sequentially read out by an 
interlace control circuit (14) in units of a predeter­
mined number of pixels. The read out data is converted 
by a data conversion circuit (15) into data having

conversion data obtained by half-reducing the data read 
out from the image memory (11) in advance. With this 
operation, a half-reduced binary image can be obtained.

Title: System for controlling access privileges
IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 1990-05-15
Abstract: The system and method of this invention provides an access control 
list which spans across object boundaries in an object oriented 
database. In addition to providing read and write access permissions, 
the access control list provides execute semantics which apply to the 
execution of methods in an object oriented database. Within the entries 
of the access control lists, each of the permissions for read, write, 
and execute can be assigned separately to each of a number of ids 
representing user ids or group ids. Upon request for access to the data 
by the user, the user id of the user and the group ids for which the 
user is a member are searched for within the entries to determine 
whether the user has the privileges to perform the operation requested 
against the objects. In addition, the access control policies are 
inherited from an object's superobject; resulting in a least privilege 
for the object.
Patent EP-0404337-A3 (EP)
Title: High-speed mesh connected local area network
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1990-05-16
Abstract: A mesh connected local area network provides automatic packet switching and routing between host computers coupled to the network. The network has a multiplicity of cut-through, nonblocking switches, each capable of simultaneously routing a multiplicity of data packets. Low host-to-host latency is achieved through the use of cut-through switches with separate internal buffers for each packet being routed. The switches are interconnected with one another and are coupled to the host computers of the network by point to point full duplex links. While each switch can be coupled to ten or more network members, i.e., switches and hosts, each link is coupled to only two network members and is dedicated to carrying signals therebetween. Whenever a new switch or link is added to the network, and whenever a switch or link fails, the switches in the network automatically reconfigure the network by recomputing the set of legal paths through the network. <IMAGE>
