Title: Programming language structures for use in a network for communicating, sensing and controlling information
Inventor: DOLIN ROBERT A JR
IPC: G06F9/46
Filed: 1992-03-17
Abstract: An improved programming interface (501,502, 503, 504, 505, 506) which provides for event scheduling improved variable declarations allowing for configuration of declaration parameters (1101, 1102, 1103, 1104) and improved handling of I/O objects (1201, 1202, 1203, 1204, 1205). Known computing devices allow for event scheduling based on the occurrence of a predefined event. However, such a system presents shortfalls in that flexibility is not provided to allow scheduling based on any arbitrary condition. Programs which run on such computing devices typically declare one or more variables; such variables having one or more parameters associated therewith. The present invention provides flexibility in allowing the states of the parameters to be changed, for example at the time a network implementing the computing device is configured. Additionally, it is disclosed to have improved declaration and control of I/O devices (115, 116, 117, 131, 132) providing for ease of use and flexibility.

Abstract: A double-acting electromagnetic linear motor (10) is proposed which has a small construction as well as a large dynamic range and high energy density with a wet configuration. The linear motor (10) has a pressure tube (21) having two magnetically non-conductive intermediate pieces (27, 28) between which a centre piece (29) is located which conducts magnetic flux. Two permanent magnets (35, 36) of annular shape and opposing polarity are arranged on the external circumference of the pressure tube (21) so that they lie within the electromagnetic coil (18) and the pressure tube (21). The shapes of the force/movement characteristics can be favourably influenced, with simple magnetic pole shapes, by different tab coincidence of the armature (33) and pole shoes (31, 32). <IMAGE>

Abstract: In order to simplify the computation work in the case of such a radar, it is proposed to carry out so-called unfocused signal processing for correlation of the received signals with the reference functions. In the case of this signal processing, only the main part of the received signal SE is used, in the case of which the phase shift is less than or equal to 90 DEG  for the outward path and return path of the signal. A simplified window function (Sr; r) is used as the reference function and its width likewise corresponds to the main part of the received signal. In this case, the in-phase and quadrature components (Ir, Qr) of the window function r are preferably selected to be equal. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An iron-based heat-generating material excellent in oxidation resistance at an elevated temperature which comprises an iron-based alloy capable of generating heat by passing electricity therethrough and a coating of aluminum and oxygen formed on the surface of the alloy, the amount of the oxygen in the coating is less than the stoichiometric amount of oxygen in Al₂O₃. The material can be prepared by vacuum evaporation of Al onto the surface of the iron-based alloy wherein an oxygen partial pressure in a vacuum gaseous atmosphere for the vacuum evaporation is adjusted so that there is formed on the surface of the alloy a coating consisting of aluminum and oxygen, the amount of the oxygen in the coating being less than the stoichiometric amount of oxygen in Al₂O₃. When the material is heated in ambient or oxidizing atmosphere, an outermost layer of the coating is rapidly converted to Al₂O₃.

Abstract: A wireline assembly (20) suspended from a cable (22) is lowered down an oil well for temporary latching to a downhole assembly. Latching is provided by keys (48) mounted in the wireline assembly to engage in a complementary recess (62) formed in the downhole assembly and co-operating therewith via surfaces that are perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the device. Unlocking is obtained by pulling on the cable (22) after an electrically controlled valve (100) has been excited. The valve (100) then communicates two chambers (102, 104) delimited by a control piston (90) inside a cylinder (86) formed in a tubular housing (44) supporting the keys (48). The tension exerted on the cable (42) is transmitted to the control piston (90) by a rod (42) which actuates an unlocking collar (78) that causes the keys (48) to be retracted.
