Patent EP-1316458-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LASSON ANDERS
IPC: B60W20/00
Filed: 2001-11-30
Abstract: A method for optimizing the operational efficiency of a
hybrid electric vehicle 10 is disclosed. The method
comprises operating an engine 511 of the hybrid electric
vehicle 10 whenever possible on an optimized power curve of
the engine 511 so as to maximise the efficiency of the
engine. When no charging of a battery 410 is required the
running torque of the engine 511 is reduced below an
optimized torque curve to a point that the power produced by
the engine 511 is substantially equal to the power demanded
solely for driving the hybrid electric vehicle 10.

Abstract: A speckle readhead includes a light source that outputs light towards an
optically rough surface. Light scattered from this surface contains speckles. The
scattered light is imaged onto an image detector, captured and stored. Subsequently, a
second image is captured and stored. The two images are repeatedly compared at
different offsets in a displacement direction. The comparison having the highest value
indicates the amount of displacement between the readhead and the surface that
occurred between taking the two images. An optical system of the readhead includes
a lens and an aperture. The aperture can be round, with a diameter chosen so that the
average size of the speckles is approximately equal to, or larger than, the dimensions
of the elements of the image detector. The dimension of the aperture in a direction
perpendicular to the direction of displacement can be reduced. Thus, the
speckles in that direction will be greater than the dimension of the detector
elements in that direction.

Abstract: Quantitative analysis speed can be increased at least four-fold via use of liquid phase
flow segmentation. An analysis device such as a mass spectrometer 40 is supplied with a
single continuous stream 100 consisting of individual segments made from four different
chromatographic or flow injection testing streams by use of a timed valve or injector 10. The
stream is formed of solution segments A-D of the different compounds, with the compound
solution segments being separated by known fluid or solvent segments S. The nature of the
individual solution segments is controlled by a high pressure valve which comprises
correlated timing elements and selection elements for determining which compounds are
being directed to the analysis device at any given time, for correlation to separate analysis
results. The selection elements are, for example, perforations 1-5 in a rotating disc which are
selectively aligned for a software-specified time, with stream sources of the different
compounds and a conduit 21 leading to the analysis device or directly thereto. A time
correlated read-out matches results with specific compounds. Throughput of compounds for
testing is multiplied to the physical handling limits of the analysis device. For current mass
spectrometers, at least four fold over conventional methods.

IPC: H04L27/00

Abstract: Known modems coupled in parallel to a coupling need a sharing
apparatus, which can be avoided by providing each modem (1)(3) with a
detector (12,13) for detecting upstream/downstream signals to be
transceived by an other modem (1,3) coupled to said coupling in
parallel. Preferably, the detector comprises a distinguisher (14,15) for
distinguishing upstream signals and downstream signals, like for example
two bandpass filters, one for the upstream and one for the downstream. A
further filter (17), like for example a highpass filter, between
coupling and detector, prevents the modem from interfering with other
(possibly transceiving) modems. The modem should have an active/passive
state corresponding with a lower/higher impedance, which can be realised
with a hybrid.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un circuit électronique permettant d'alimenter et de protéger un autre circuit de consommation contre des tensions électriques trop élevées. Le circuit d'alimentation est composé d'au moins deux circuits de surveillance indépendants qui mesurent indépendamment un état d'erreur en fonction d'une valeur seuil commune établie à partir d'une valeur déterminée dans le circuit. L'enregistrement d'un état d'erreur dans le circuit de surveillance permet de déclencher au moins un passage de courant indépendant entre la tension d'alimentation du circuit d'alimentation et une valeur référence associée. Ceci permet de garantir que le circuit électrique augmente le courant par l'intermédiaire d'un circuit séparateur, lequel, après déclenchement, isole le circuit de consommation du reste du circuit. De plus, la même valeur référence peut être utilisée pour plusieurs circuits de surveillance, les écarts de tolérance des composants pouvant être compensés de sorte qu'une tension d'alimentation et qu'une tension de sécurité présentent des valeurs avec des différences infimes.
