Patent EP-1136762-A2 (EP)
Inventor: WITHRINGTON DEREK M
IPC: F24F11/00
Filed: 2001-03-23
Abstract: A device (10) for automatically controlling an air
maintenance system (12) is disclosed. The device uses a
Passive Infra-Red (PIR) detector (14) to count the
number of movements within an enclosed space during a
specified time period. Readings from a temperature
sensor (16) may also be included. A processor (18) then
estimates the number of people within the enclosed space
and thereby activates the air maintenance system (12) at
a suitable activation level. Preferably, a PIR detector
(14) with no latching-on period is provided.
Communication between the processor (18) and the air
maintenance system is preferably by way of a radio
transceiver (32).

Abstract: The present invention provides a space-saving and low-cost
emergency power system, which can be installed on a
narrow place having limited space and employs a battery that
is long in service life and low in frequency of replacement.
This emergency power system comprises a circuit having a DC
load, a rectifier, and a battery, which are electrically
connected to one another. This circuit is adapted so that
normally, DC power is supplied from the rectifier to the DC
load, and the battery is charged, and that in an emergency,
such as a power failure, in which an outage of the rectifier
occurs, electric power is automatically supplied from the
battery to the DC load. In this system, a sodium sulfur
battery is employed as the battery.

Abstract: Selon l'invention, il est possible de faire croître des couches épitaxiales de qualité élevée de matériaux monocristallins sur des substrats monocristallins tels que de grandes tranches de silicium, par formation d'un substrat flexible destiné à la croissance des couches monocristallines. Un moyen de réaliser un substrat flexible consiste d'abord à faire croître une couche tampon de réception (24) sur une tranche de silicium (22). Cette couche tampon de réception est constituée d'une couche d'un oxyde monocristallin séparée de la tranche de silicium par une couche d'interface amorphe (28) d'oxyde de silicium. La couche d'interface amorphe permet de dissiper les déformations et la croissance d'une couche tampon de réception d'oxyde monocristallin de qualité élevée. La couche tampon de réception est en correspondance de réseau à la fois avec la tranche de silicium sous-jacente et avec la couche recouvrante de matériau monocristallin (26). Tout défaut de correspondance de réseau entre la couche tampon de réception et le substrat de silice sous-jacent est pris en compte par la couche d'interface amorphe. En outre, la formation d'un substrat flexible peut consister à utiliser une épitaxie améliorée par agent tensioactif, une croissance épitaxiale de monocristal de silicium sur un monocristal d'oxyde, et une croissance épitaxiale de matériaux à phase de Zintl.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé de fabrication de dispositifs électroniques, ces dispositifs comprenant deux fils métalliques croisés prenant en sandwich une espèce moléculaire électriquement adressable. Ce système est extrêmement simple et peu coûteux à mettre en oeuvre et ramène les dimensions des fils de plusieurs micromètres à des dimensions nanométriques. Il est possible d'utiliser ces dispositifs électroniques dans la production de matrices de commutateurs crossbar, de dispositifs logiques, de mémoires et de dispositifs de communication et d'acheminement de signaux. On réalise la construction des dispositifs électroniques moléculaires sur une échelle de longueur allant des micromètres aux nanomètres par une procédure d'ensemble chimique directe et peu coûteuse. Les dispositifs commutables moléculaires de géométrie crossbar sont configurables, le changement de conformation étant commandé par des forces intramoléculaires supérieures à une liaison hydrogène. Le procédé de cette invention consiste à configurer un ensemble de commutateurs moléculaires de façon définie selon une géométrie crossbar et à rendre ensuite cette configuration pratiquement permanente ou stable par rapport aux fluctuations de température.

third demodulated symbol and a sign bit of the quadrature-phase component Y k .
A third calculator decides a soft value Λ(s k,0 ) of a first demodulated symbol by
subtracting the distance 2a from a level |X k | of the in-phase component X k . A

some of the audio packs that were originally in the
former section are multiplexed into the latter section.
The result of the multiplexing is then recorded onto the
