Abstract: A method for manufacturing a winding (31) for an electric
rotating machine (1) includes steps of altering, passing,
shaping, and connecting. In the altering step, connecting
portions (331d, 331d', 331e, 331e', 332d, 332d') of conductor
segments (331, 332), a part of which is exposed, are altered
in shape by a pressing die (100, 102, 100a, 102a) to provide
good contact between the segments (331, 332) when they are
connected. The altered segments (331, 332) are passing through
slots (35) of a stator core (32) in the passing step. Ends of
protruded portions of the segments (331, 332) are shaped so
that they make an angle with respect to the radial section of
the stator core (32) in the shaping step. Adjacent segments
(331, 332) are connected together at ends of the connecting
portion (331d, 331d', 331e, 331e', 332d, 332d') in the
connecting step.

Abstract: A resistor (1) is produced so that dispersity of carbon black
in the resistor is low in a surface of the resistor and high in
an inner part thereof. In the surface of the resistor, current
paths are formed by the carbon black with poor dispersity to
minimize a contact resistance of a sliding contact (5) or the like.
In the inner part of the resistor, the carbon black is uniformly
dispersed to increase a resistance. Accordingly, a total
resistance value can be prevented from lowering.

Abstract: A sealing plate(1) acts in conjunction with an attachment(2) and one or more sealing films(6/12; 6/13) to form a package around a product(5). The attachment has a cut-out(3) or opening(4) covered by a pliable or elastically deformable sheet(8). The sealing plate may incorporate spacers(14).  Spacers(14) of an elastically deformable material are a positive fit in the sealing plate(1). Spacers may project similar or different distances above the sealing plate surface and may be spring mounted to allow movement relative to the plate. Ends of spacers may be flat, pointed, arched or angled. A number of spacers are positioned in an area of the sealing plate so that they fit into the cut-out(3) or opening(4) in the attachment(2). Arrangement of groups of spacers together with different attachments and numbers of openings or cut-outs allows the spacers to be inside or outside prescribed sealing contors. The elastically deformable sheet(8) is temporarily fixed to the attachment to allow removal and either partially or completely covers the cut-out or opening. A ledge(9) close to an opening or cut-out allows attachment of the deformable sheet and can comprise projecting pegs which extend at least partially around the attachment. The pegs engage with eyes(11) in the deformable sheet. Attachment of the deformable sheet may also be made by an auxiliary frame which clamps it in the opening or cut-out. A base film(6/12) rests on the deformable sheet and a product(5) rests on the film. A cover film(6/13) is then sealed over the product. Residual air in the package is pressed out by the spacers.

Inventor: ROSS JOHN ANDERSON FERGUS
IPC: H03M13/23
Filed: 1998-04-15
Abstract: Turbo-coding in a communications system involves coding/decoding information
in stages in order to avoid retransmission of a full L-bit packet upon occurrence of
a packet error. In addition to a set of code bits generated by an encoder using a
turbo-coding scheme, a punctured set of code bits is generated and stored in
transmitter memory. The original set of code bits is transmitted as an L-bit data
packet to a receiver which stores received data samples corresponding to the
original set of code bits. The receiver decodes the data packet using a turbo-decoder
and determines whether the data packet has been received in error. If
so, the received data samples are maintained in memory, and a request for more
information is made. Some or all of the punctured information is then forwarded
from the transmitter to the receiver. A second stage of turbo-decoding combines
the new data samples with the stored original received data samples such that
there is a high likelihood that decoding is correct at this point, but additional
stages of decoding may be used.
