Title: Apparatus for feeding screws
Inventor: OTA YOSHITAKE
IPC: B65G/
Filed: 2011-01-13
Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus for feeding screws. In the apparatus, screws are scooped up from the storage container by a scooping unit and put onto a carrying unit. The screws are arranged in line and carried by the carrying unit and discharged through a discharge unit. The scooping unit includes a rotating arm which rotates on the outer wall of the storage container, and a magnet which is fastened to the front end of the rotating arm. The carrying unit includes a screw receiving part. The rotating arm rotates on the outer wall of the storage container to scoop up the screws using magnetic force of the magnet and load the screws onto the screw receiving part. The scooping unit further includes a magnet spacing part which is provided on the outer wall of the storage container. The magnet spacing part moves the magnet of the rotating arm away from the outer wall of the storage container, so that when the magnet is moved away from the outer wall of the storage container at the upper portion of the storage container, the attractive force of the magnet to the screws is reduced, thus dropping the screws onto the screw receiving part of the carrying unit.

Patent HK-1009365-A1 (HK)
Title: Cdma substractive demodulator
Inventor: DENT PAUL WILKINSON
IPC: H04W88/00
Filed: 1998-08-11
Abstract: Subtractive CDMA demodulation optimally decodes a coded information signal embedded in many other overlapping signals making up a received, composite signal. A radio receiver (25) correlates a unique code corresponding to the desired signal to be decoded with the composite signal. Moreover, after each information signal is successfully decoded (processor 40), it is recoded and removed from the composite signal. Subtractive CDMA demodulation is enhanced by decoding the composite signal in the order of strongest to weakest signal strength (signal strength processor 29). The individual information signals are spread using block error correction codes which are correlated with the composite signal using Fast Walsh transforms (correlator 30). Correlated signals identified as the largest transform component are removed from the composite signal and the remaining composite signal is reformulated using an inverted Fast Walsh transform. Any residual error or interference caused during the extraction of a transform component is removed by recorrelating the composite signal using the index of that transform component.
