Patent EP-0492849-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NELLUMS RICHARD ALEXANDER
IPC: F16H3/12
Filed: 1991-12-04
Abstract: A pin-type, double-acting synchronizer mechanism (22) includes friction clutches (24,36 and 26,38), jaw clutches (28,14b,16b), self-energizing ramps, (13f,13g,13h,13i and 29e,29f,29g,29h), and springs (33) to limit the maximum self-energizing or additive force provided by the ramps. The ramps act between a shaft (12) and jaw clutch (28). A shift flange (32) is rotatably fixed to the jaw clutch (28) by spines which allow relative axial movement against the force of the springs (33). The jaw clutch (28) and the shaft (12) include mating splines (29,13) divided into spline portions (29a,29b,29c,29d and 13a,13b,13c,13d,13e) to define the ramps to control limited relative rotation between the jaw clutch (28) and shaft (12), and to provide surface area and structural strength for transmitting full torque to the shaft and gears.

Abstract: The method for recognising objects in images according to the invention comprises a learning phase in the course of which the object area to be recognised selected in a learning image is modelled, and a recognition phase in the course of which the modelled area is compared to image areas of the same size taken in the images to be processed. The method utilises, for characterisation of the model image areas of an object to be recognised or image areas to be processed, decomposition of the matrices of the luminance values into singular values according to a matrix product of projection matrices and of an ordinate diagonal matrix, the latter constituting a characteristic signature of the area in question; for the recognition phase, deviations between the signature of the model area and the signatures of the area of the image in question are calculated and image areas are selected on the basis of the least deviations according to an iterative method which consists in carrying out a coarse sort over a large number of areas in the first place, than a finer and finer sort over a smaller and smaller number of areas. The calculations carried out at each step are re-used in the succeeding step.

IPC: G01P15/10
Filed: 1991-11-14
Abstract: In the force transducer (40g) is provided an articulation between the stationary and movable massive solid parts (41g, 42g) in the form of a deformable parallelogram comprising two parallel flexible plates (43g, 44g) which extend perpendicularly to the sensitive direction (0Y) and, preferably, which form parallel sides of the one-piece body of the transducer. The movable part (42g) is thus translationally moved along the direction of the useful extension or compression force. A piezoelectric structure (60g) of the transducer preferably comprises three vibratory beams (61A; 61B; 61C) having, in common, two electrodes respectively disposed on two large faces of the beams. So as to avoid short-circuits and to increase the performance of the transducer, each electrode is composed of three "capital omega"-shaped longitudinal branches supported by the beams and connected together, on the attachment ends (63F, 63M) of the structure. An accelerometric sensor comprises two such transducers (40g, 40d) which are symmetrical in relation to a median axis perpendicular to the sensitive direction. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The thread leaving a drawing train (1, 2) is guided into a centrifugal spinning can (20). Once a particular length of thread has accumulated against the wall of this can, the thread is cut by a cutting member (11, 13, 14) and the end, freed in this way, of the length of thread which is in the can (20) is driven by a nozzle (35), supplied with compressed air and arranged in an extraction member (22), into a discharge conduit (33) terminating at a storage bobbin (41). As regards the other end which is no longer connected to the twist induced in the can (20), a pretwist is imparted to it at the same time as a pull by a helical airflow generated in the feed member (4) by compressed air admitted through an orifice (10) and issuing into a channel (5) for the entry of the thread through nozzles (8) inclined relative to the axis of this channel and opening into it tangentially. The cutting member (11, 13, 14) blocks the passage of air in the branch (6), and its passage (14) guides the air towards the can (21) by way of the branch (7), thereby driving the thread with it. This cycle is subsequently repeated indefinitely. <IMAGE>
