Patent EP-1079496-A3 (EP)
Inventor: YOKOYAMA HIDENORI
IPC: H02J7/14
Filed: 2000-08-11
Abstract: An abnormality detection apparatus for a power supply
circuit associated with an internal combustion engine
detects an abnormality that may occur in a power supply
circuit, and controls the automatic stop and the automatic
start of the engine based on the state of the power supply
circuit. The state of charge/discharge of a battery
determined based on the electric potential of a terminal
located between the battery and a generator-motor or a load
is compared with the current through the battery detected
by an ammeter. If there is a contradiction therebetween,
it is determined that an abnormality has occurred somewhere
in the power supply circuit including the battery. When it
is determined that the power supply circuit has an
abnormality, the apparatus performs such a control as to
prevent the automatic stop/start control in which the
engine is automatically stopped if a predetermined
condition is met, and in which the engine is automatically
restarted when the condition is unmet after being met.
Patent EP-1094586-A3 (EP)
Inventor: FRITZ TODD WILLIAM
IPC: H02H3/087
Filed: 2000-10-17
Abstract: The present invention relates to an electronic control circuit (10) that detects a
short-circuit or excess current condition and, in response thereto, cuts off the output
current from the system power supply. The circuit is disposed between a system
power supply (20) and a load device (22). An output transistor (Q1) is connected
between the system power supply and the load device to control the level of current
supplied to the load device, including cutting off the current supply entirely in case of
a short-circuit or excess current condition. The output transistor is controlled by a
pre-drive transistor (Q3) which, in combination with pre-drive resistors, provides a
control signal to the output transistor to control the level of output current supplied to
the load device. The control signal produced by the pre-drive transistor is dependent
upon the output of an operational amplifier (U1) that compares the output potential to
a pre-determined reference voltage to determine if the output potential has reached a
stable level. In the event of a short-circuit or excess current condition, a switch
network (18), consisting of a switch transistor (Q2), a resistor (R10), and two diodes
(D1,D2) in the preferred embodiment, deactivates the pre-drive transistor, which in
turn deactivates the output transistor. The output transistor cuts off the output current
from the system power supply, thereby protecting the system power supply from
possible damage.

Abstract: A catalytic hydrocracking process wherein a hydrocarbonaceous
feedstock is converted by combining with a hot recycle stream containing
hydrogen, and the mixture is passed to a denitrification and desulfurization
reaction zone, and then to a hydrocracking zone. The resulting hot, uncooled
effluent from the hydrocracking zone is hydrogen stripped in a stripping zone
maintained at essentially the same pressure as the hydrocracking zone to
produce a vapor stream containing hydrogen, hydrocarbonaceous compounds
boiling at a temperature below the boiling range of the fresh feedstock,
hydrogen sulfide and ammonia, and a liquid hydrocarbonaceous stream
wherein at least a portion of this liquid stream is then passed to the
denitrification and desulfurization reaction zone. At least another portion of
the liquid stream is admixed with the subsequently cooled vapor stream to
produce a hydrogen-rich recycle gas stream and a liquid hydrocarbonaceous
stream containing hydrocarbonaceous compounds boiling at a temperature
below the boiling range of the fresh feedstock.

Abstract: A collector cup for the collection and removal of the low-mass particles
that exit from a plasma mass filter includes a cylindrical shaped wall, an
internally cooled getter plate and a plurality of internally cooled baffles. The
baffles are concentrically mounted and are attached to the inside of the
cylindrical wall, between the getter plate and the plasma mass filter thereby
creating an enclosed volume that is defined by the getter plate, the baffles
and the cylinder wall. Entryways are formed between the baffles to allow the
gas formed at the baffles to enter the enclosed volume. When the ions and
electrons exit from the filter, they collide with the cooler baffles, and combine
to form neutral atoms and vaporize. Once formed, the gas can pass through
the entryways and into the enclosed volume where it can be condensed onto
the surface of the temperature controlled getter plate. Once condensed onto
the surface of the getter plate, the condensed molecules may combine with
each other to form larger molecules and solidify. After accumulation, this
solid can be periodically removed from the getter plate surface as a liquid by
heating the plate to the liquidus temperature of the solid. Additional oxygen
or sodium can be introduced into the enclosed volume from a secondary
source to combine with any unreacted molecules on the getter plate surface.
