Title: Optical system and lighting device comprised thereof
Inventor: YODER BENJAMIN LEE
IPC: F21V7/00
Filed: 2016-06-23
Granted: 2017-07-06
Abstract: The present disclosure describes embodiments of an optical system for use in a lighting device, e.g., replacements for MR/PAR/R directional lamps. In one embodiment, the optical system comprises optical elements (e.g., a lens element) with features that form light from a light source into a light beam. In one embodiment, the optical elements have a plurality of focus points, which do not all converge to a single focus point proximate the light source. Rather one or more, and preferably three or more, of the focus points are spaced apart from the light source so the collective configuration of focus points causes the light beam to exhibit favorable characteristics.

Title: K-turn path controller
Inventor: DANG TRI M
IPC: B62D1/28
Filed: 2016-11-14
Granted: 2020-10-22
Abstract: A guidance system may derive a K-turn path when a vehicle reaches an end of a first way 
line in a field. The guidance system may send the K-turn path to a steering controller to 
turn the vehicle around in a headland area to the beginning of a second way-line in the 
field. A first segment of the K-turn path may turn the vehicle along a first path in a 
forward direction and a second segment of the K-turn path may turn the vehicle along a 
second path in a reverse direction. A third segment of the K-turn path may turn the 
vehicle along a third path in the forward direction to a starting location of the second 
way-line. The K-turn path uses less area than other types of turns reducing the amount of 
headland used for turning around the vehicle.

Filed: 2016-09-08
Granted: 2018-11-08
Abstract: An inverter detects irregularities in the sequence of power-supply phases connected to a three-phase power supply line. An inverter substrate (100A) is provided with three input terminals (5r, 5s, 5t) connected to the three phases of the power supply line (1r, 1s, 1t), a pair of DC buses (LH, LL), a rectifier circuit (2), an inverter (4), a current detector (3t), and a voltage detector (8). The rectifier circuit (2) has three input terminals (2r, 2s, 2t) corresponding to the input terminals (5r, 5s, 5t), and applies DC voltage to the DC buses (LH, LL), the DC voltage being obtained by rectifying the AC voltage applied to the input terminals (2r, 2s, 2t). The inverter (4) converts the DC voltage to a different AC voltage (Vu, Vv, Vw) and outputs the AC voltage. The current detector (3t) detects the load current (It) flowing in the input terminal (2t). The voltage detector (8) detects the line voltage (Vrs) between the input terminals (5r, 5s).
