Patent CA-2146094-C (CA)
Title: Inspection of translucent containers
Inventor: KOHLER TIMOTHY A
IPC: G01N21/90
Filed: 1995-03-31
Granted: 2006-05-30
Abstract: Apparatus for inspecting the bottom of a container that includes a light sensor positioned to view the container bottom through the open container mouth, a light source positioned externally of the container on the opposite side of the container bottom, and electronics for detecting commercial variations in the container bottom as a function of light energy incident on the sensor. The light source, as viewed by the sensor through the container bottom, is characterized by being elongated radially of the container bottom and narrow transversely of the container bottom. In this way, any variations in the container bottom that refract the line of sight of the sensor in the radial direction, such as mold code rings and baffle scars, are essentially transparent as viewed by the sensor.      On the other hand, variations that refract the sensor line of sight laterally of the container bottom, such as glass particles, knots and lumps, produce a dark image at the sensor since the sensor cannot see the light source through the variation.

Filed: 1996-09-16
Granted: 2003-09-09
Abstract: The finishing precision and uniformity of hardness of a surface finished by a construction machine, such as back-hoe, is improved by modifying the targets of a position-tracking control system based on work-load applied to the end effector of the construction machine. For example, compaction force of a surface, contoured by a position-tracking back-hoe, can be made more uniform. This is accomplished by adjusting actuator targets, otherwise controlled on the basis of positional and speed constraints, in response to a detected work load acting on the end effector. To detect work load, a hydraulic fluid pressure signal can be applied to a computer which generates target position and speed commands to the feedback system. The control circuit may be arranged to hold work load constant (generating a constant compaction force for example) or, in response to a priority signal, the circuit can give a selected weight to both the positional constraints and the work load constraints. Another benefit of altering position-tracking in response to work load is improved coordination of actuators. For example, the gain of feedback and feedforward signals of a position-tracking control system can be increased when a detected load is heavy, increasing response, and attenuated when the load is light.?

Abstract: An enhanced system for calculating the Z-Axis, or relative height or altitude, of a radio beacon. The present invention uses a barometric pressure sensing device co-located with the radio emitter (203) to transmit data representing relative altitude. To further enhace the Z-Axis determination, one or several barometric sensors, located at known heights, are positioned around the city to provide real time barometric data. The real time data is used to form a differential correction factor which is compared to the time varying barometric sensor co-located with the radio emitter, thereby yielding Z-Axis accuracies of up to one (1) foot. Since the altitude essentially becomes a "known", this information can also be used in the least squares fit algorithm to enhance the X and Y determination as well.
