Patent EP-0767116-A2 (EP)
Inventor: PEDERSEN POUL KINGO
IPC: B65G19/18
Filed: 1996-06-10
Abstract: In conduit scraping conveyors, e.g. for conveying food to a plurality of feeding places in a stable, a flight conveyor cable is advanced through a tubular system for forwarding material by the help of flight discs on the cable. The cable should be a cored steel cable, that however has a tendency of expelling wire pieces that in an extremely undesirable manner is mixed with the material. Steel cables are already known that are surrounded by a covering layer of extruded elastomer that could prevent the release of wire pieces, but these cables are not immediately suitable for being provided with moulded flight discs that ought to be in firm connection directly with the steel cable. 
     It is by the invention realised that a cover coated flight conveyor cable however can be provided by making use of an injection moulding technique, by which the flight discs (2) in a known manner is moulded in a relatively stiff or rigid elastomer directly on the steel cable (1), but also having short thin outwardly extending sockets (2a) at both sides of the flight discs (2), and that there between the neighbouring flights (2) and over the sockets (2a) is moulded a bendable elastic coating layer (3), preferably a thermoplastic elastomer, as this can retain its tight connection to the sockets (2a) and the cable (1).

Abstract: An inclined mirror (22) is provided in a cylindrical housing (16) which has an open end (30) and a closed end (18). An optical planar glass plate (34) or window is mounted at the open end of the cylindrical housing. A laser beam (26) enters the housing through the window and is reflected off the inclined mirror. The reflected beam (32) leaves the housing through a side aperture (28) in the housing. The cylindrical housing is rotated to scan the beam through a range of angles. Rotation of this optical system induces astigmatism in the beam due to the deformation of the inclined mirror at high rotational speed. If the window is tilted so that the entering laser beam is no longer normal to the window surface, then the window will induce a degree of astigmatism in the laser beam. The angular position of the window can be adjusted relative to the inclined mirror, thus compensating for the dynamic astigmatism due to rotation.

Abstract: The present invention provides a rotation transmitting
mechanism capable of transmitting a power in a constantly
stabilized manner irrespective of a low speed rotation or a
high speed rotation, and a transfer for automobiles using the
rotation transmitting mechanism. In the present invention,
when a rotational difference occurs between the casing 1 and
the shaft 3, the rollers are allowed to roll while being in
contact with pressure plates 5 on one hand which rotate
together with the casing 1 and in contact with pressure plates
6 on the other which rotate together with the shaft 3, while
simultaneously the pressure rotor 9 rotates within the
viscous fluid 6 so that the pressure of the viscous fluid 6
presses the piston disk 4 toward the rollers 7. This will
result in a generation of a frictional force corresponding
to a pressing force of the piston disk between the rollers
7 and the pressure plates 5, 6, the pressing force serving
as a resistance for the transmission of the power. At that
time, the rollers generate a sliding friction in rolling
motion, thus ensuring at all times a stable frictional force
by a dynamic friction without generating any static
frictional force.

Abstract: A machine tool assembly, and particularly a
spindle unit therefor, is provided wherein the spindle
unit is relatively small and is designed to run at rotary
speeds of between 30,000 rpm's and 40,000 rpm's utilizing
hydrodynamic bearings for the spindle shaft. The
hydrodynamic bearings are effective to take increased
loads versus similarly sized conventional metal-to-metal
contacting bearings to provide a very stiff machining
system even with the higher loads generated by the
increased rotary operating speeds for high speed
machining contemplated for the spindle unit herein. The
bearings are also designed to use a water-based fluid
which is compatible with the cutting fluid. Non-contacting
fluid barrier seals limit and control the
amount of bearing fluid leaked to the cutting fluid. Due
to the compatible nature of the two fluids, small fluid
leakage from the bearings will not hurt the cutting
fluid. The cutting fluid circulated at an ambient inlet
temperature,  e.g. , 70°F., and leaves at a higher
discharge temperature,  e.g. , 120°F., to cool the spindle
and bearings. A cutting tool mounting adapter is
provided which is attached to the spindle shaft by
expansion of the shaft socket with high pressure
hydraulics for shrink fitting of the socket onto the
adapter when the hydraulics are removed so that the
traditional highly tapered sockets and tool supports are
not necessary, keeping the size of the front of the
spindle small. The adapter also allows a commercially
available tool to be employed in the high speed spindle
unit herein.

Abstract: An apparatus for diagnosing a fault in a dynamic
system includes a controller which controls the dynamic
system through use of a control input signal and vibrates
the dynamic system through use of an vibration signal
irrelevant to the internal state quantity of the dynamic
system; an observer for estimating, on the basis of a
response output from the vibration dynamic system, total
disturbance which is a sum of an internal disturbance vector
stemming from a fault in the dynamic system and a vibration
disturbance vector occurring in the dynamic system through
vibration; a correlation calculation unit which calculates
cross-correlation between the thus-estimated total
disturbance and the internal state quantity of the dynamic
system and separates a component related to the internal
disturbance from the total disturbance; and a diagnostic
unit for diagnosing a fault in the dynamic system on the
basis of the thus-separated component related to the
internal disturbance. Since the dynamic system is vibrated,
the response output can be increased even when there exists
small external disturbance. As a result, a fault or a
variation in air pressure in a tire can be highly accurately
diagnosed.

orthogonal carriers constituting OFDM symbols, preceded by a guard interval, and transmitted
over a transmissive channel. The output signal from the channel are demodulated
into their elementary components (   y   ( n , k )), are equalized by dividing them by respective
complex values  ( H ∧   ( n , k )) constituting estimates of the channel transfer function with
respect to the respective carriers before bein reconverted into binary signals. The estimates
of the channel transfer function  ( H ∧   ( n , k )) are filtered in the frequency domain with an
equivalent "bandwidth" broader that the time duration of the guard interval.

Abstract: A directory system directs cache line access
requests from processors in a multi-processor system
with a shared memory system through a cache line states
directory. The cache line states directory stores a
state value that identifies a cache line shared states
word. The cache line shared states word identifies the
processor that owns the cache line and the state of
access of each processor that shares access to the
cache line. 
     A state value encoder encodes a cache line shared state
word into a state value and loads the state value into
the cache line states directory. A state value decoder
decodes the state value into a cache line shared state
word for use by the cache line directory system in
retrieving the cache line. A plurality of cache line
tables are used with each cache line assigned to one of
the tables. The cache line table stores a state value
for each cache line shared states word stored in the
table. The encoder and decoder perform a table look-up
to convert between a cache line shared state word and a
state value. Each of said cache line tables stores an
ordered list of cache line shared state words and their
corresponding state values. The ordered list is a list
of cache line shared state words that have the most
significance to the multi-processor system.
