Title: Algorithm for passive power factor compensation method with differential capacitor change and reduced line transient noise
Inventor: STEWART NEAL GEORGE
IPC: H02J3/18
Filed: 2014-03-31
Granted: 2017-01-05
Abstract: A computer-implementable control algorithm that measures: 1) the reactive power; 2) the power factor; 3) the voltage; and4) the line frequency. The algorithm calculates the differential compensation capacitance required that is either positive (capacitance to be added), or negative(capacitance to be removed). The new compensation capacitance is calculated from the sum or difference of the differential compensation capacitance and the current compensation capacitance. The algorithm compares the capacitor switching bit pattern for the current compensation capacitance and the capacitor switching bit pattern for the new compensation capacitance, and selects a capacitor switching bit map accordingly. The capacitor switch combination for the new compensation capacitance is switched in incrementally according to the capacitor switching bit map. To reach the selected capacitor switch combination, only one switch is switched at a time to minimize the line transient noise. This part of the algorithm continues to run until the PF is corrected, with the capacitor switches being switched on/off each delayed by a millisecond interval to minimize line transient noise.

Title: Health monitoring of an electrochemical cell stack
Inventor: BLANCHET SCOTT
IPC: H01M8/04
Filed: 2014-06-05
Granted: 2018-10-18
Abstract: The present disclosure is directed towards a method and a system for monitoring the performance of an electrochemical cell stack (100) such as an electrochemical hydrogen compressor. Monitoring can be performed remotely by measuring the voltage for delivering a given current across the stack or by performing a linear current sweep and measuring the resulting voltage. In the latter case, a slope of the resulting V-l curve is determined and compared with an initially recorded slope at the beginning of life (BOL) of the cell system. Comparing the values serves for determining the condition of the stack, i.e. the performance decay, which in turn enables preemptive repair of the stack prior to failure.

The sensors (S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6) each comprise a transmitter (2) adapted to transmit sensor signals to a physically distanced data management arrangement (4). The physically distanced data management arrangement (4) comprises a receiver (11) adapted to receive sensor signals, a processor (13) adapted to evaluate sensor signals, and a memory (12). The method comprises the steps of receiving sensor signals and evaluating sensor signals. The data management arrangement (4) stores the received sensor signals in the memory (12) and the evaluation comprises a step of combining and/or comparing at least two data points from one or more stored sensor signals with each other. The invention allows evaluation of sensor signals by comparing and or combining data points from sensor signals. This has the advantage that a plurality of different measurement results may be calculated from sensor signals.

Title: Hinge for a brace
Inventor: GARRISH ROBERT
IPC: A61F5/01
Filed: 2016-09-08
Granted: 2021-05-13
Abstract: A hinge for a brace comprises a tensioning element such as an inelastic cord for applying a restorative force to the hinge. A tensioning mechanism, preferably a hydraulic spring, tensions the cord as the hinge is moved from a rest position to a loaded condition.

The tensioning block and the anchoring block may be operatively geared together along an arc of motion so as to provide a generally symmetrical motion of the tensioning and anchoring portions relative to the gusset. When an external force is applied to move the hinge from the rest position the tension on the cord loads the spring, and when the external force is removed the spring applies a restorative force to move the hinge back to the rest position. Optionally the tensioning member may be configured to be disengaged and reengaged by an external actuator.
