Patent EP-1275569-A2 (EP)
Inventor: TOMITA HIROSHI
IPC: B60R22/24
Filed: 2002-07-04
Abstract: The object is to more effectively and more reliably prevent
a seat belt from being biased when the seat belt is rapidly
drawn and is rapidly wound in case of an emergency such as a
vehicle collision. Multiple ribs (5) are formed in an
inclined manner in a sliding portion (4b) for a seat belt
(3). The inclination angle  1  of the ribs (5) is set to be
larger than the inclination angle  b  of the traveling
direction of the seat belt (3) through a guide hole (4a).
Therefore, when the seat belt (3) is rapidly wound by the
actuation of a pretensioner in case of an emergency such as
a vehicle collision, it is inhibited from moving toward a
vehicle-front side end of the guide hole (4a), by a reactive
force produced by the friction at vehicle-rear side ends
(5a) of the ribs (5). This makes it possible to more
effectively and more reliably prevent the seat belt (3) from
being biased to the vehicle front side when being rapidly
wound by the actuation of the pretensioner.

Abstract: A 3D model deformation program is provided capable of
performing deformation processing of a 3D model using
clusters in each drawing period in a video game. A CPU 21
finds for each cluster with which a vertex is associated the
product of a weighting matrix expressing weightings
representing the degree of association of a vertex in any
desired frame with a cluster with which this vertex is
associated, a co-ordinate transformation matrix for
transforming the local co-ordinate system of the vertex in
this frame to a world co-ordinate system, and an inverse
transformation matrix which is the transformation matrix of
the co-ordinate transformation matrix for transforming the
local co-ordinate system of the vertex in the specified
frame to the world co-ordinate system and finds an addition
matrix by adding these products.

Abstract: A thermal ink jet printer (10) for printing an image (20) on a receiver (30)
and method of assembling the printer. The printer comprises a print head (60)
defining a first chamber (180) and a second chamber (190) therein. The first
chamber contains a working fluid and the second chamber contains an ink body.
A flexible membrane (200,287,300) separates the first chamber and the second
chamber. A first transducer (240) is disposed in the first chamber and is in
communication with the working fluid for inducing a first pressure wave (245) in
the working fluid that in turn flexes the membrane into the second chamber.
When the membrane flexes into the second chamber, the membrane transmits the
first pressure wave into the second chamber, so as to pressurizes the ink body.
When the ink body is pressurized, an ink drop is ejected from the second chamber
through an outlet (195) that is in communication with the second chamber. A
second transducer is disposed in the first chamber and is in communication with
the working fluid for inducing a second pressure wave (275) that flexes the
membrane into the second chamber. When the membrane flexes into the second
chamber, the membrane transmits the second pressure wave into the second
chamber to damp the first pressure wave transmitted into the second chamber, as
well as to damp the first pressure wave in the first chamber. Use of the invention
increases printer speed, reduces the "decel" effect, reduces resistor kogation,
reduces resistor cavitation damage, and allows use of a wider variety of inks.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des radiomètres qui détectent le rayonnement électromagnétique de longueur d'onde radioélectrique et qui comprennent d'ordinaire une antenne (16), un amplificateur (18) et un détecteur (20). Ces trois constituants présentent des caractéristiques de transfert qui peuvent dépendre de la température et, en cas de systèmes utilisant des réseaux de radiomètres, qui dépendent des températures dans l'ensemble du système. Des températures différentes au niveau d'une antenne multivoie et une réponse thermique de voie différentielle peuvent produire une faible qualité d'image avec des radiomètres imageurs. La résolution d'un réseau linéaire de cornets de détection est limitée par la taille des cornets. Un radiomètre imageur (10) comprend un polariseur de focalisation (36), une lame quart d'onde (32), un disque incliné rotatif (28) et un réseau de sources (16) pour le détecteur afin d'effectuer un balayage conique et compense les variations de la température de fonctionnement d'un radiomètre à l'aide d'une technique ou éventuellement de plusieurs techniques différentes telles que l'étalonnage des voies les unes par rapport aux autres, l'étalonnage des voies à l'aide de températures de référence in situ et l'étalonnage des voies à l'aide de prévisions de la réponse thermique stockées dans le processeur de signal (22) du radiomètre. Certains aspects de la présente invention permettent également d'optimiser la résolution des images ainsi que la qualité de ces dernières, et d'effectuer l'étalonnage.

Abstract: The invention relates to a synchronous clocked communication system, for example a distributed automation system, the stations of which can be arbitrary automation components and which are coupled to one another via a data network. Using the disclosed method for integrating decentralized input/output modules, these decentralized input/output modules can be linked into the synchronous clocked communication system in such a manner that they can use their characteristics unrestrictedly. Thus, in particular, the detection of input signals and the output of output signals is possible in a deterministic and synchronous manner in the decentralized input/output modules. In addition, the disclosed method enables input signals to be detected with an accuracy of less than the length of one communication cycle of the communication system and to support the switching of output signals in smaller time granularities than the length of one communication cycle which, in particular, finds use, e.g. for switching cams.

Title: Method for avoiding interference radiation of am transmitters used in digital transmission
Inventor: RUDOLPH DIETMAR
IPC: H04H20/00
Filed: 2002-04-10
Abstract: A method for avoiding spurious emissions in an AM transmitter for digital transmission includes converting a digital modulation for controlling the AM transmitter into an amplitude signal for an amplitude branch, and a phase-modulated RF signal for a RF branch. Non-linear distortions in an amplitude response and a delay-time characteristic of an amplitude branch are compensated for using a pre-equalization with inverse shapes by measuring and storing the amplitude response and the delay-time characteristic of the RF branch. An inverse transfer function is determined using respective shapes of the measured amplitude response and delay-time characteristic by an inverse Fourier transform. An equalizing network is dimensioned for the determined inverse transfer function. The equalizing network is connected in series upstream of the RF branch. The amplitude and RF branches are combined downstream of the amplitude and RF branches.
