Inventor: MURAKAMI TSUYOSHI
IPC: F16D48/12
Filed: 2002-10-30
Abstract: A power distribution control apparatus determines a
command value that corresponds to the driving state of a four-wheel
drive vehicle. The vehicle includes a pair of front
wheels (5a,5b) and a pair of rear wheels (11a,11b), and a coupling device (7) that
changes the power distribution to the front wheels and the
rear wheels. The control apparatus (21) detects the differential
rotation speed between the average rotation speed of the front
wheels and the average rotation speed of the rear wheels. The
control apparatus estimates the exothermic energy generated in
the coupling device (7) based on the product of the differential
rotation speed and the command value. The control apparatus
determines an optimum drive mode for the four-wheel drive
vehicle based on the estimated exothermic energy and for
selecting map data corresponding to the determined drive mode.
The control apparatus determines the command value that
corresponds to the driving state by using the map data.

Abstract: The content of a hard disk drive or the like information storage media that
includes content stored in a host protected area (HPA) or reserve area of the hard disk
is duplicated using hard disk drive duplicating machinery. The duplication process
includes the steps of detecting the presence of a HPA on a source drive, and if
detected, generating an HPA area of the same or of a sufficiently accommodating size
on the target disk drive. Information from the source HPA drive is written to the thus
created HPA area of the target drive. The remaining content from the source drive is
written to an available section of the target drive. The invention is thereby able to
detect whether a source drive has a HPA, create an HPA on the target drive, and to
copy the content of the source HPA to the HPA on the target device to ensure a
proper duplication of the target drive.

Abstract: A User Distribution Server (UDS) is provided in a network having multiple servers and users which are each identified by a plurality of different user identifications. The UDS is located close to an entity disposed to request user information and the UDS responds to a query pertaining to a specific user by redirecting the query to the appropriate server or serving entity. The UDS implements a secondary database with user and server identification information obtained from primary user databases associated with or derived from the servers. The use of distinct primary and secondary databases simplifies data handling, since data changes and updates can be readily managed in the primary databases and then transferred to or actualized in the secondary database.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program for improving the image quality of one or more bi-directionally predicted intermediate frames in a video image compression system, where each frame comprises a plurality of pixels (See fig. 4). In one aspect, the invention includes determining the value of each pixel of each bi-directional predicted intermediate frame as a weighted proportion of corresponding pixels values in non-bidirectionally predicted frames bracketing the sequence of bi-directionally predicted intermediate frames (See fig. 4, item 400). In one embodiment, the weighted proportion is a function of the distance between the bracketing non-bidirecitonally predicted frames (See fig. 4, item 401). In another embodiment, the weighted proportion is a blended function of the distance between the bracketing non-bidirectionally predicted frames and an equal average of the bracketing non-bidirectionally predicted frames (See fig. 4, item 403). In another aspect of the invention, interpolation of pixel values is performed on representations in a linear space (See fig. 4, item 405), or in other optimized non-linear spaces differing from an original non-linear representation (See fig. 4, item 406).

Abstract: This invention relates to a nonlinear distortion
compensating circuit in which a digital value expressing
the amplitude of an input signal is divided into upper and
lower bits, only the upper bits are input to an address in
a first memory, a value obtained by adding 1 to the upper
bits is input to an address in a second memory, or, an
interpolation circuit to which the upper bits are input
inputs the upper bits to a first memory storing data
corresponding to an even-numbered address and a second
memory storing data corresponding to an odd-numbered
address, and performs interpolation by adding outputs from
the first and second memories by weighting these outputs
in accordance with a value expressed by the lower bits,
and the input signal is multiplied by the obtained value.
In this arrangement, an interpolation circuit output based
on the outputs from the first and second memories is an
orthogonal coordinate expression (a combination of a real
part and imaginary part) or a polar coordinate expression
(a combination of an amplitude and phase).

Abstract: In a vehicle occupant restraint system for restraining a lower part of a vehicle
occupant, an arrangement for moving a restraining member (5) from a retracted position
to a deployed position upon detection and/or prediction of a vehicle crash by a crash
sensor (11,12) is adapted in such a manner that the restraining member cannot be made
to move from the deployed position to the retracted position by an external force
applied to the restraining member but can be made to move from the retracted position
to the deployed position and from the deployed position back to the retracted position
by a force transmitted from a power actuator (9, 15) to the restraining member via a
power transmitting member (6, 7, 10). Thus, while the restraining member is capable of
withstanding the load of restraining the vehicle occupant, even when the restraining
member is deployed, it can be brought back to the retracted position so that the
restraining system can be used repeatedly. This is particularly significant when the crash
sensor includes a crash prediction sensor (12) because the prediction could be wrong
and the restraining member may have to be deployed a number of times even when a
vehicle crash has never occurred.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for implementing in situ low

readback amplitude ratio is identified from two different disk radii. A change
between the initial ratio value and the operating readback ratio is calculated

warning is generated responsive to the change value being greater than the
threshold value.

Because of the liquid seal and shallow configuration the benefits of microfluidic devices are achieved together with the handling convenience and use of conventional detection equipment of conventional microplate devices.
