Title: Switching the transmission path of control frames in a linear protection switched system
Inventor: KANO SHINYA
IPC: H04B1/74
Filed: 2010-06-04
Abstract: The invention enables switching of the transmission path of control frames, e.g. Automatic Protection Switching (APS) frames, in a linear protection switching system without triggering an erroneous alarm condition. For the case where traffic is being transmitted over a protection path, switching the control frame transmission from the protection path to the working path avoids having to transmit both traffic and control frames over the same path. The invention provides a method comprising: at the time of working/protection switching of redundant paths, halting the monitoring of whether or not the control frame has been received via a previous working path 402 (the path used as the working path until switching is completed), determining whether the transmission of control frames via the new working path (the previous protection path) has stopped 403, and commencing monitoring of whether or not the control frame has been received via the new working path 404.

Title: A variable geometry turbine
Inventor: CARTER JEFFREY
IPC: F01D17/14
Filed: 2009-03-11
Abstract: A variable geometry turbine of the kind used in a turbocharger has a variable geometry element such as a nozzle ring that is operated by an actuator. The actuator comprises a motor which drives a cross-shaft in rotation. The cross-shaft in turn drives a pair of guide rods on which the nozzle ring is supported in translation so as to move the nozzle ring and control the width of the inlet passage of the turbine. The cross-shaft and guide rods are drivingly engaged by a rack and pinion or thread or another toothed or threaded formation suitable for converting rotational movement into translational movement. The cross-shaft can be located in close proximity to the guide rods and the output of the motor shaft so as to provide a compact package. Moreover, the torque required to resist movement of the nozzle ring in operation is much reduced in comparison to existing designs.

Title: Storage heater having a controller configured to select an operating temperature of a core material of the heater
Inventor: MCDONALD ALAN WILLIAM
IPC: F24D15/02
Filed: 2012-03-26
Abstract: The storage heater comprises: a core of heatable material 310 rated to a first operating temperature, the first operating temperature being a normal operating temperature of the core; at least one electrical heating element 320; and a controller configured to selectively activate the at least one electrical heating element to heat the heatable material to the first operating temperature. The controller is also configured to selectively activate the at least one electrical heating element to heat the heatable material to a second operating temperature, the second operating temperature being greater than the first operating temperature. The second operating temperature may be activated by the controller in response to a signal received from a network provider supplying electricity to the heater. Activation of the second operating temperature allows the network provider to dispose of excess energy, such as that generated by renewable sources, to the heater. If this excess energy is not needed by the heater then the heater can carry over the energy to the next day, thereby requiring less charging in preparation for the next day. The heater may include thermal insulation 330 so that heat retention is improved.

The bond points may be slightly ellipsoidal and the median pore 130 size of the fibrous matrix is preferably more than 3.5 times the median diameter of the particles. The particles may be more than 80% by weight of the structure, the fibres more than 10% and the meltfusionable material more than 5%. The metlfusionable material may be unitary with the fibres. The structure may be contained by cover webs and a strong peripheral weld.

Title: Light treatment apparatus for hair removal
Inventor: HERBERT KEVIN
IPC: A61B18/20
Filed: 2013-01-10
Abstract: A handheld device has a light source (30, figure 3), a movement detector (34) which measures the speed of movement of the device over a user   s skin, and a control means (36) for modulating the amount of radiation emitted by the light source in accordance with the detected speed such that a constant radiation density is applied to the skin. Preferably, the modulation is achieved by varying the duty cycle of the light source, but its intensity may be adjusted instead. The motion sensor may be a roller or an image detector. When the device is stationary the control means reduces the amount of radiation to nil, or to a low value. Also disclosed is a device which detects the reflectance of the skin and alters its output accordingly, and a device which can crop hairs and then destroy the hair follicles by changing the direction of its light beam output.

Title: Determining the rotor position of a permanent-magnet motor
Inventor: BATEMAN CHRISTOPHER JOHN
IPC: H02P6/18
Filed: 2013-03-06
Abstract: A method of determining the position of a rotor of a permanent-magnet motor. The method uses two different schemes to determine the position of the rotor depending on the speed of the motor. When rotating within a first speed range, a first scheme is used that comprises sequentially exciting and freewheeling a winding of the motor, measuring a parameter that depends on the rate change of current in the winding, and comparing the measured parameter against a threshold. The rotor is then determined to be at a predetermined position when the measured parameter is less than or greater than the threshold. When rotating within a second speed range, a second scheme is used that comprises generating a signal having a voltage that is proportional to the voltage across the winding, generating a further signal having a voltage that depends on the rate of change of current in the winding, and comparing the voltages of the two signals. The rotor is then determined to be at a predetermined position when the voltages of the two signals correspond.
