Title: Coin discriminating apparatus
Inventor: HOWELLS GEOFFREY
IPC: G07D5/08
Filed: 1984-02-07
Granted: 1988-10-06
Abstract: Various electrical coin testing arrangements are described which may be used in coin sorters or in coin validators for example. In each arrangement a transmit coil is pulsed with a rectangular voltage pulse and the eddy currents in an adjacent coin under test are monitored, either by monitoring the resulting current in the same coil or in a different coil. In one arrangement, FIG. 7+L, particularly suitable for a coin validator, a single coil acts as both a transmitter and receiver and is successively pulsed with voltage pulses of different lengths, and the decaying eddy currents are measured by measuring the coil voltage after delays which are longer for longer voltage pulses, in order to reduce the dynamic range requirements of the monitoring circuitry. In a second arrangement, FIG. 4+L, two transmit coils are used, the larger coil being larger than each of the coins to be tested, and the smaller coil being smaller than each coin.

Title: Electronically controlled prosthetic knee
Inventor: DEFFENBAUGH BRUCE W
IPC: A61F2/80
Filed: 2001-01-22
Granted: 2004-04-01
Abstract: The present invention relates to a variable-torque magnetorheologically actuated prosthetic knee which utilizes a plurality of interspersed and alternating rotors and stators to shear magnetorheological fluid in gaps formed therebetween. Advantageously, by operating in the “shear mode” there is substantially no or negligible fluid pressure buildup or change. Moreover, the multiple MR fluid gaps or flux interfaces desirably allow for the production of a large torque at low speed—eliminating the need for a transmission—and also for a wide dynamic torque range. One embodiment of the invention allows the rotors and/or stators to close the gaps therebetween to create a frictional torque component, thereby forming a “hybrid” braking system which provides a total torque or damping which is a combination of viscous torque and frictional torque.
