Filed: 2003-12-18
Abstract: A manufacturing cell (1) having a plurality of work stations, where at least one of the work station comprises a metalworking machine (2)having a modular tooling apparatus (10). The modular tooling apparatus consists of a base (20) having one or more attachment surfaces (30,40), and one or more inserts (50,60) that can be inserted semi-permanently to the attachment surfaces. The attachment surface is typically a pocket in the surface of the base. The insert has a workpiece support feature (71) that can support and/or secure the workpiece (198) into the proper position and orientation for machining. The base, pockets and inserts are configured to provide a characteristic location and orientation for the workpiece relative to the base, and to the metalworking machine. The modular tooling apparatus permits machining a family of workpiece members (198,298) that are related but different in detail, by inserting an insert member from the family of inserts to properly position and orient the corresponding workpiece member, without needing to change, disconnect, or move the base. The invention also provides a process for performing a plurality of metalworking operations on workpieces, employing the manufacturing cell (1) described hereinabove.

Title: Systeme de mise a niveau de vehicule
Inventor: SORUM ROBERT D
IPC: B62D33/08
Filed: 2004-01-28
Abstract: Cet extrait concerne un système de mise à niveau de véhicule comprenant au moins un capteur de niveau, un contrôleur et une sortie. Le capteur mesure le degré de niveau du véhicule par rapport à l'horizontale. En option, il le fait dynamiquement, alors que le véhicule se déplace sur une aire de stationnement potentielle. Le contrôleur analyse les mesures du capteur, et informe l'opérateur via la sortie si le véhicule est de niveau dans une direction donnée, si la mise à niveau du véhicule progresse, si le véhicule peut être mis à niveau à un endroit donné, et/ou la « meilleure » mise à niveau dont le système est capable à un emplacement donné. Le système peut également effectuer automatiquement la mise à niveau du véhicule par rapport au sol pour l'opérateur. Dans un mode de réalisation, le système de nivellement communique avec un système de commande de hauteur de véhicule électronique existant. Le système de nivellement remplace ou contrôle le fonctionnement normal de ce système, et l'utilise pour effectuer la mise à niveau du véhicule, par exemple, en ajustant la suspension du véhicule.

Abstract: Methods and systems for automating the control of fluid jet orientation parameters are provided. Example embodiments provide a Dynamic Waterjet Control System (401) (a "DWCS") to dynamically control the orientation of the jet relative to the material being cut as a function of speed and other process parameters. Orientation parameters include, for example, the x-y position of the jet along the cutting path, as well as three dimensional orientation parameters of the jet, such as standoff compensation values and taper and lead angles of the cutting head. In one embodiment, the DWCS (401) uses a set of predictive models to determine these orientation parameters. The DWCS (401) preferably comprises a motion program generator / kernel (402), a user interface (403), one or more replaceable orientation and process models, and a communications interface to a fluid jet apparatus controller. Optionally the DWCS also includes a CAD module (404) for designing the target piece.

Title: Method and system for power supply control using a fixed-frequency pulse width modulation control circuit
Inventor: PIERCE JASON C
IPC: H03K7/08
Filed: 2004-09-02
Abstract: A voltage divider splits the input voltage to be regulated between the input voltage node and the dead time pin of a TL494 voltage regulator.   Thus, the duty cycle limit varies in inverse proportion to the input voltage node. Accordingly, the duty cycle percentage limit is reduced when the input voltage to be regulated is a relatively high voltage as compared to use in a circuit where the voltage to be regulated is comparatively low with respect to the input voltage range specification for the supply.      A small signal transistor is connected in series with the output driver(s) of the TL494 to achieve a safe shutdown condition of the TL494, thereby preventing the output driver(s) from turning on the main power transistor in the absence of adequate V cc voltage.

Abstract: Methods and systems provide for automatically performing actions on or in association with text or data strings that are recognized as belonging to certain semantic categories: Text entered by a user is passed to a recognizer application. If a given text or data string is recognized as belonging to a given semantic category, the recognizes application passes data corresponding to the recognized string back to a host application. In response to recognized text or data, a pointer to the object model of the host application may be passed to the recognizes application to allow the recognizes application to perform any function of the host application in response to the recognized string. Alternatively, after the recognizes application passes data corresponding to the recognized string back to the host application, the host application may fire an application level or document level event for causing an action component to perform desired actions on recognized strings. Alternatively, after a string is recognized by the recognizes application, the recognizer application may set a property associated with a desired action to be performed on or in association with the recognized string. The host application may call an action component identified by the property for automatically performing the desired action on or in association with the recognized string.
