Abstract: Le feu de signalisation arrière (10) d'un véhicule automobile comprend un boîtier de feu (14) et un verre de protection arrondi (22), destinés à envelopper un système de gestion de lumière fine (12). Ce système de gestion de lumière fine (12) comprend plusieurs diodes électroluminescentes (28) sur la lunette arrière, ces diodes étant montées sur un substrat (30) et fixées audit boîtier de feu (14). Un module de commande (34) est relié de manière fonctionnelle aux diodes électroluminescentes (28) de manière à contrôler le fonctionnement et à régler la luminosité de ces diodes (28). La matrice(36) d'un réflecteur comprend: plusieurs cônes (38) correspondant à chacune des diodes électroluminescentes (28) du substrat (30); un panneau optique hybride (40) présentant une partie de projection directe (42) recouvrant ladite matrice (36) de réflecteur et lesdites diodes électroluminescentes (28); et un double conducteur de lumière (44) entourant ladite partie de projection (42). Une seule des diodes électroluminescentes (28) est couplée le long de quadrants espacés (98, 100, 102, 104) du conducteur de lumière (44). Chacune de ces diodes électroluminescentes (28) émet de la lumière vers le quadrant respectif du panneau optique (40), cette lumière étant réfléchie et réorientée vers une ou plusieurs facettes du verre de protection, de manière à éclairer la surface avant dudit panneau. La partie de projection directe (42) et le conducteur de lumière (44) éclairent ainsi différentes zones du verre de protection arrondi (22).

Abstract: The invention relates to a filter (10) for fluids with a built-in pressure controller (11), used for filtering fuels. The inventive filter comprises an admission connection means (16), a discharge connection means (19) and a tank connection means (17). When the pressure controller (11) comes into action, the fuel flows towards the tank, from the pure side (27) of the fluid filter (10), through the tank connection means (17). A seat valve (43) is used as a pressure controller (11), said seat valve being associated with a dampening unit (44) comprising a dampening piston (46) and protruding in the inner space (48) of the filter member (21). The inventive fluid filter (10) is constructed in a compact and cost-effective way and it allows for precise pressure control and as well as substantially oscillation-free operation.

IPC: G06N3/04
Filed: 1998-11-03
Abstract: A pattern recognition device having modifiable feature detectors (28) which respond to a transduced input signal (26) and communicate a feature activity signal (30) to allow classification and an appropriate output action (70). A memory (40) stores a set of comparison patterns, and is used by an assigner (66) to find likely features, or parts, in the current input signal (26). Each part is assigned to a feature detector (28[m]) judged to be responsible for it. An updater (42) modifies each responsible feature detector (28[m]) so as to make its preferred feature more similar to its assigned part. The modification embodies a strong constraint on the feature learning process, in particular an assumption that the ideal features for describing the pattern domain occur independently. This constraint allows improved learning speed and potentially improved scaling properties. A first preferred embodiment uses a group of noisy-OR type neural networks (50) to implement the feature detectors (28) and memory (40), and to obtain the parts by a soft segmentation of the current input signal (26). A second preferred embodiment maintains a lossless memory (40) separate from the feature detectors (28), and the parts consist of differences between the current input signal (26) and comparison patterns stored in the memory (40).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1), especially for growing plants, having at least one pot (2) in which the base is provided with a plurality of openings (10). Each opening (10) has a first part (12) which is formed in the base (3) and extends up to the pot wall (4). Each opening (10) also has a second part (13) which is formed in an area of the pot wall (4) located close to the base and which is adjacent to said first part (12). The first part (12) of the opening (10) is covered in the inner space of the pot by forming lateral passage openings (20) with a ridge (15) which is at least partially set at a distance from the base (3). The root tips die as soon as they reach the passage openings (20) between the ridge (15) and the base (3) since they come in contact with light and air. As a result, undesired turning growth of the roots is prevented in a simple manner.

Abstract: A formatter 2s13 is provided and, when a code sequence which
matches a part ('00') of the head of a predetermined code
sequence detected by a start code prefix detection unit 2s3, is
detected, the start code prefix detection unit 2s3 detects the
residual part ('00','00','01','E0') of the detected predetermined
code sequence to detect a pattern of ('00','00','00'), and the
formatter 2s13 outputs one ('00'). After the boundary of packets
is defined, amongst data which are not transferred to a decoding
buffer 2s9, data corresponding to code sequences other than the
code sequence ('00','00','01','E0') indicating the packet
boundary are output to the decoding buffer 2s9. Therefore, when
separating a coded and multiplexed signal, control of an input
buffer reading control circuit 2s4 is simplified, and thereby the
hardware scale is reduced, resulting in an inexpensive apparatus
for reproducing a digital code sequence.

Abstract: Un système de génération d'impulsions de verrouillage comporte un sélecteur (100) conçu pour recevoir un signal impulsionnel de synchronisation horizontal et un signal impulsionnel de suppression dérivé de la déviation et pour basculer entre les deux pour produire un signal impulsionnel de sortie en réaction à un signal de commande.

Un détecteur (250) est couplé pour recevoir le signal impulsionnel de synchronisation horizontal pour générer le signal de commande ayant un premier état réagissant à la présence du signal impulsionnel de synchronisation horizontal et un deuxième état réagissant à l'absence de signal impulsionnel de synchronisation horizontal. Le premier état dudit signal de commande commute le sélecteur de sorte qu'il reçoive le signal impulsionnel de synchronisation horizontal (BLK) et le deuxième état du signal de commande commute le sélecteur, de sorte qu'il reçoive le signal impulsionnel de suppression dérivé de la déviation.
