PURPOSE:To provide possibility of torque control with high precision at all times by calculating the target value for suction pressure and suction air amount from the engine target torque, and feedback-controlling the degree of throttle valve opening so that the calculated target value is in coincidence with the actually measured value. CONSTITUTION:When engine is in operation, the target horse-po...

PURPOSE:To provide possibility of torque control with quick response by calculating the target value for suction pressure and suction air amount from the engine target torque, modifying this target value according to the deviation, and by obtaining a throttle valve degree-of-opening signal from the target value after modification. CONSTITUTION:When engine is in operation, the target horse power PS...

PURPOSE:To prevent the damage of a bobbin hanger in the removal of residual roving, by detaching a roving bobbin having residual roving from a bobbin hanger, holding the bobbin with upper and lower holders and pressing the bobbin against a flocked belt to effect the treatment of the residual roving.

A toe piece for safety ski-bindings, which toe piece can pivot outwardly in a sideways direction against a biasing force if excessive lateral forces occur. A supporting member (8) is connected to two side holding members (9,10) adapted to support the sole of the boot in lateral and frontal directions. The support member (8) forms the coupling means of a linkage quadrangle which can pivot laterally...

A front piece for safety ski bindings having a sole holder adapted to be pivoted sideways against the force of a spring and serving to support the ski boot sole sideways and towards the front, a pedal for actuating a control mechanism which maintains the release resistance at least approximately constant and independent of the variable pressure applied to the pedal.

A control strategy is disclosed wherein a desired driving force is determined based on sensed input signals and a throttle actuator and a reduction ratio actuator are actuated so that the engine can produce the desired driving force without deviating from the predetermined best fuel economy curve.

A laser smoke evacuation system and method for laser smoke removal from the site of laser laparoscopy in a patient cavity. The system includes a CO2 gas pump connected through a control valve, a pressure sensor, and a bacterial filter to a laparoscopic tube inserted into the patient, a return line from a second laparoscopic tube in the patient through a smoke filter, a pressure sensor, a control v...

Compositions of water soluble polymers coated with hydrophobic fumed silica are readily dispersed in water. A method for improving the water dispersibility of a water soluble polymer is disclosed.

Method for preparing a setting foam material containing plastic material granules, which plastic material granules are prepared from beads of plastic material. After preparing a slurry of base material it is mixed with the plastic material granules. This motar is immediately pumped after which the foam is introduced.

A process for impregnating a fibrous product, said fibrous product being a fabric woven from reinforcing fibres or a fabric of randomly disposed fibres, with a matrix polymer comprising causing partial impregnation of the fibrous structure by introducing the fibrous structure into a molten composition comprising the matrix polymer and a melt plasticizer for the matrix polymer and subsequently caus...

A non-woven fabric suitable for clothing manufacture, comprising a fiber web substantially formed of a continuous filament of a synthetic fiber, wherein a plurality of weakened portions in a form of a scratch or a crack are distributed on the filament constituting at least one surface of the fiber web. Some of the weakened portions are broken to form free ends, some of which are projected from the...

Cyclic polycarbonate mixtures containing units derived from spirobiindane bisphenols, preferably 6,6'-dihydroxy-3,3,3',3'-tetramethylspirobiindane, are prepared from the corresponding bischloroformates or mixtures thereof with bisphenols. They may be homopolymeric or copolymeric; cyclic oligomer mixtures are preferred. Such oligomers may be converted to linear polycarbonates having high glass tran...

Acoustical coupling is proposed as a means of determining the presence and acoustical impedance if materials behind casing in cementation evaluation. Expressions for computing coupling and attenuation in multi-receiver/transmitter logging systems are analyzed in an exponential model for the spatial decay of elastic wave energy propagating axially along the casing. Amplitude change between transmit...
