| 20100134201 | Broadband Directional Coupler with Adjustable Directionality - A directional coupler for the directional transmission of high-frequency signals provides at least three lines and at least three ports. Two lines of the three lines are connected in a conductive manner at least at their ends. A third line is arranged between the two first lines and coupled to the latter in an electromagnetic manner. In this context, the high-frequency signal is transmitted from the third line to the first line and second line. The coupling is implemented via a coupling gap. | 06-03-2010 |
| 20100182098 | Directional Coupler with Inductively-Compensated Sharpness of Directivity - A directional coupler provides at least two coupled lines, at least three ports and at least one inductor. A high-frequency signal is transmitted from the first coupled line to the second coupled line. The circuit is constructed in stripline technology. In this context, the second coupled line provides a forward path and a return path, which are connected to a port. An inductor is connected in series to the return path. | 07-22-2010 |

| 20110174892 | APPARATUS AND RELATED METHODS FOR WEATHER MODIFICATION BY ELECTRICAL PROCESSES IN THE ATMOSPHERE - The present invention provides an apparatus for weather modification. The apparatus comprises an emitter electrode, means for providing the emitter electrode with an electric charge, electrically coupled to the emitter electrode, an insulating support for supporting the emitter electrode at a predetermined height, and means for earthing the apparatus. The emitter electrode comprises a Malter film. According to another aspect of the present invention an apparatus for weather modification is provided, which comprises a lighter-than-air craft suitable for carrying an emitter electrode, means for providing the emitter electrode with an electric charge, electrically coupled to the emitter electrode, and means for earthing the apparatus. According to still a further aspect of the present invention, a method of increasing the amount of precipitation in a target region is provided. The method comprises the steps of providing an emitter electrode, analyzing the meteorological situation in and/or close to the target region, and providing the emitter electrode with an electric charge in response to the meteorological analysis, thereby causing the emitter electrode to ionize the vicinity of the emitter electrode. | 07-21-2011 |

| 20100007531 | CONTROL MECHANISM FOR AN ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE AND EVALUATION METHOD FOR THE CONTROL MECHANISM - A control mechanism for an electrical appliance comprises a deformable or elastic control panel, for example, embodied as a frame of an electric cooking hob. Several piezo sensor elements are arranged under the control panel. The piezo sensor elements are arranged on the rear side of a printed circuit board, the opposite front side of said printed circuit board being arranged or fastened to the underside of the control panel in a planar manner. By determining the difference of the signals of the sensor elements arranged next to each other, it is possible to accomplish an extremely good and safe evaluation of a location where a finger is placed with light pressure on the control panel. | 01-14-2010 |
| 20100309668 | DISPLAY DEVICE - A display device comprises a support, on which there are arranged LED and a light distributing body above the luminous means with a direction of light emission away from the support and the LED. The light distributing body is a three-dimensional body with a light entrance side facing towards the LED and a light exiting side facing away from the LED. The light distributing body consists of transparent material and the light entrance side is shaped to optimise uniform light distribution from the LED to the light exit side, which may take the form of a diffuser. | 12-09-2010 |
| 20110050609 | METHOD FOR ENTERING A TWO-DIGIT VALUE AT AN OPERATING DEVICE - In a method for setting a two-digit value for a function parameter for a function device at an operating device, the operating device is appropriately designed for operating the function device. It has a sensor operating panel designed to detect and evaluate movements, independently of one another, of a finger in contact in two operating directions perpendicular to one another. Setting of the two-digit value at the operating device is achieved for the units-places by a movement of a finger on the sensor operating panel in a first operating direction. The tens-places are set independently of this by a movement of a finger on the sensor operating panel in a second operating direction. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20110176392 | SIGNAL TRANSMITTER DEVICE COMPRISING AN ELECTRICAL ACOUSTIC SIGNAL TRANSMITTER - A signal transmitter device comprises an electrical acoustic signal transmitter signal, which has a piezoceramic disk on a metal membrane, on a printed circuit board. The printed circuit board has an opening in the region of the piezoceramic disk or the metal membrane, wherein the metal membrane extends over the opening for the purpose of bearing on the printed circuit board in an edge region of the opening. The piezoceramic disk arranged on the metal membrane is arranged towards the opening and substantially in the region of the opening, wherein a contact projection as part of the printed circuit board for electrical contact-connection to the signal transmitter is provided at the edge region of the opening. Separate parts can thus be obviated. | 07-21-2011 |

| 20100308647 | Power Supply Circuit for a Vehicle - A power supply system for a vehicle has at least one control unit with two power supply terminals that are each protected against overload by a fuse. The first power supply terminal is connected to a voltage regulator for the microcomputer of the control unit and to the accumulator via the quiescent current switch, while the second power supply terminal is connected to the accumulator via a fuse. The first power supply terminal supplies the microcomputer with energy, while the second power supply terminal actuates one power switch per control unit in order to supply energy to the output stages of an actuator which is operated by the control unit. The on-board vehicle power system control unit activates the quiescent current switch in order to deactivate the microcomputer, while the power switches of the same control unit are supplied with power. | 12-09-2010 |
