Title: Method for embedded feedback control for bi-stable actuators
Inventor: GRIFFIN ERIC J
IPC: G01R31/06
Filed: 2014-06-11
Abstract: A drive mechanism (16A, 16B) having a bi-stable motor (18) driving an actuator (22) with a high starting torque, and a slower, regulated velocity as the actuator moves through its range of travel. This advantageously maintains high torque margins at low velocity, and lowers the kinetic energy of the bi-stable actuator at end of travel by limiting the terminal velocity (Wm) and establishing a softer stop. A solenoid may be used in one embodiment. Actual bi-stable motor values are obtained immediately before the move to maintain accurate control of the motor, such as the resistance and inductance of the motor coil. For instance, the bi-stable motor (46) may be driven into a stop (50, 52), and the coil resistance(Rm) may be calculated by sensing current (Im) associated with the calibration voltage (Vd) Inductance (Lm) may be measured similarly by applying low level AC currents Back-emf is sensed through the coil resistance, and an estimated motor rotation rate is sent to a feedback loop (68) to maintain the desired rate.

Title: Hybrid membrane and adsorption-based system and process for recovering co2 from flue gas and using combustion air for adsorbent regeneration
Inventor: KULKARNI SUDHIR S
IPC: C01B32/50
Filed: 2016-03-03
Abstract: CO2 may be recovered from flue gas by a hybrid system utilizing both gas separation membranes and adsorption. Purified flue gas is separated by the gas separation membrane into permeate and non-permeate streams. The permeate stream is compressed, partially condensed at a heat exchanger, and phase- separated to produce a vent gas and high purity liquid CO2. The vent gas is recycled to the membrane. The non-permeate is fed to a PSA unit. The CO2 blow-down from the PSA unit is also compressed with the flue gas stream. The adsorbent in the PSA unit is regenerated with combustion air and the CO2-containing combustion air is fed to a combustor for combustion with fuel and an oxidant to produce the flue gas.

Patent CA-2936396-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HIGH DONALD R
IPC: B25J5/00
Filed: 2016-07-15
Abstract: A central computer system identifies a mobile item container in a retail shopping facility as being abandoned. The central computer system then directs a motorized transport unit through the retail shopping facility to the abandoned mobile item container and causes that motorized transport unit to physically attach to the abandoned mobile item container. The central computer system then directs that motorized transport unit through the retail shopping facility with the attached abandoned mobile item container to a specified destination within the retail shopping facility. Abandonment can be determined as a function, at least in part, of determining that the mobile item container is both stationary and unattended for at least a predetermined amount of time. By one approach the central computer system can use different predetermined amounts of time when assessing abandonment depending upon where in the retail shopping facility the mobile item containers are located.
