Abstract:
A system and method for speech recognition includes a speaker-independent set of stored word representations derived from speech of many users deemed to be typical speakers and for use by all users, and may further include speaker-dependent sets of stored word representations specific to each user. The speaker-dependent sets may be used to store custom commands, so that a user may replace default commands to customize and simplify use of the system. Utterances from a user which match stored words in either set according to the ordering rules are reported as words.
Abstract:
A housing of measuring tape compromising a supporting a hard plastic shell, a buffer soft plastic shell and two impact proof side metal covers, the supporting hard plastic shell and the buffer soft plastic shell can be injected together or stuck together after being injected separately for the right, left body of the measuring tape. During assembling, screws are applied in both directions to have the tape wheel, the elastic component, the tape lock/automatic rewind switch and all the components installed inside the right, left body, then to have the impact proof side metal covers installed on both external sides of the right, left body. The screw holes are covered by the impact proof side metal covers, such structure make the housing with light weight, impact proof and not easy to disperse characters.
Abstract:
A common ground system and methodology for one or more loads. In exemplary embodiments, a lamp load is regulated by providing a common ground on the secondary side of the transformer and the load. Lamp regulation is provided, in part, via a current feedback loop provided on the secondary side that is commonly grounded between the bottom of the transformer and the bottom of the lamp through the current feedback loop. In this manner, a feedback signal is developed that includes the leakage current of the lamp.
Abstract:
A coping saw includes a housing and a flexible conveyor belt supported by at least three balancing wheels being supported rotatably on said housing. A saw blade is connected with one end of an upper saw blade holding mechanism and one end of a lower saw blade holding mechanism at its two ends respectively. A driving mechanism is driven by a motor and connected to the flexible conveyor belt through a sliding block.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a CCFL driving circuit having a parallel-arranged transformer system and a feedback loop positioned to sense the current in one of the lamps in the system. Each CCFL in the system is driven by the secondary side an individual transformer. Based on the current sensed in the feedback loop, a controller supplies the appropriate driving voltage to the primary side of the transformers, which in turn powers each CCFL. Since the primary sides of the transformers are arranged in parallel, and since each CCFL is connected at a common node, it is ensured that each transformer receives identical voltage, and the current in each CCFL loop is balanced.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to compositions and processes which incorporate water-soluble polymers, other than enzymes, containing .dbd.N--C(.dbd.O)-- (including PVP) and/or N-oxide groups into the wash, rinse, and/or drying cycle of a laundering process (e.g., via fabric softening compositions) for dye transfer inhibition in the subsequent wash cycle. Multiple wash cycles optimize the dye transfer inhibitor performance of these polymers, remove unwanted dye discoloration caused by dye transfer, and provide soil antiredeposition benefits.
Abstract:
A horizontal type of packing machine with an adjustable pouch former, in which a guide screw having half left-handed threads and half right-handed threads is used for adjusting the width of the pouch former; a cylindrical gear is in mesh with two gears to drive a left and a right gear racks and to simultaneously adjust the height of two guide plates on both sides of the machine in order to adjust the height of the pouch former. According to the design of replaceable paper-guiding plates, a user can select the proper paper-guiding plates in accordance with the products and the packing paper for the purpose of increasing the function of the pouch former; the metal plate parts are used for forming a near quadric chain assembly by means of a rotary connector so as to have such parts moved and adjusted upon the adjustment of the pouch width.
