Abstract: An adjustable depth of drive device for use on a fastener driving tool. The adjustable depth of drive device includes a thumb post (18) which is mounted to, and extends from a work piece contact element (16) of the tool. Also included is a thumb wheel (20) which is removably attached to the thumb post (18). A spring member (22) is another part of the adjustable depth of drive device, and it is engagable with the thumb wheel (20) in at least two positions. In a first position, the spring member (22) is frictionally engaged with the thumb wheel (20) to prevent unwanted movement of the thumb wheel (20) relative to the thumb post (18), and this first position allows for fine adjustments of the position of the work piece contact element (16). In a second position, the spring member (22) is disengaged from the thumb wheel (20) to permit free rotation of the thumb wheel (20) on the thumb post (18), which allows for gross adjustments of the position of the work piece contact element (16). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for generating look-up tables for a high speed multi-bit Real-time Deterministic Finite state Automaton (hereinafter RDFA). The method begins with a DFA generated in accordance with the prior art. For each state in the DFA, and for each of the bytes recognized in parallel the following occurs. First an n-closure list is generated. An n-closure list is a list of states reachable in n-transitions from the current state. Next an alphabet transition list is generated for each state. An "alphabet transition list" is a list of the transitions out of a particular state for each of the characters in an alphabet. Finally, the transitions are grouped into classes. That is, the transitions that go to the same state are grouped into the same class. Each class is used to identify the next state. The result is a state machine that has less states than the original DFA.

Abstract: A screw compressor is connected to a motor to be driven by the motor even during periods of low compressed air consumption. During such periods, the screw compressor is at least partially unloaded to make it easier and less costly to drive the compressor. The unloading is performed by removing air from the compressor. Preferably, that is done by communicating the air inlet of a small capacity vacuum device with the air outlet of the screw compressor. Suction from the vacuum device is transmitted to the air outlet of the screw compressor to suck air out of the screw compressor to reduce the engine horsepower needed to rotate the screw compressor. The vacuum device can also be used to boost the air volume and/or the air pressure. The system can be used in a drilling rig which drills holes in the ground. The screw compressor can be unloaded during start up of the motor by briefly driving the vacuum device by pressurized liquid from a pre-pressurized hydraulic accumulator.
