Patent EP-0298718-A2 (EP)
Inventor: TAMURA YOSHIHARU
IPC: H01H47/00
Filed: 1988-07-06
Abstract: In a relay circuit, a stationary contact of a relay is coupled to a DC voltage source and a moving contact of the relay is coupled to a load circuit. The moving contact is switched to the stationary contact in response to a rapidly rising edge of a DC voltage applied to the relay. A voltage sensor is connected to the moving contact for detecting a voltage which appears thereat. For operating the relay, a switch is closed to apply a voltage from the DC voltage source to a pulse generator. The pulse generator generates a rectangular pulse and applies it to the relay to cause it to switch the moving contact to the stationary contact. If a voltage is not detected by the voltage sensor at the moving contact after energization of the relay, the pulse generator reapplies a rectangular pulse to the relay until a voltage appears at the moving contact, whereupon the pulse generator applies a constant voltage to the relay.

Abstract: A floating mold changer carriage is movable between a shaping device for shaping a sheet of glass with at least one mold and a mold storage area spaced from the shaping device, for replacing the mold with a new mold. The car­riage includes a main frame (12) having a plurality of pal­lets (50) mounted on a lower surface thereof and each having a flow passage (54) with its one open end connected to fluid source (56). The pallet (50) has a cylindrical portion (52) on its lower surface and a hollow annular member (70) of a resilient material disposed around the cylindrical portion. The annular member (70) has an opening (72) confronting the other open end (74) of the flow passage. When a fluid or air is supplied from the fluid source (56) via the flow pas­sage into the annular members (70), the annular members (70) are inflated to float the main frame (12) off the floor (76). Continued supply of air develops a fluid or air layer between the floor (76) and the annular members (70) to reduce the coefficient of friction therebetween, thus allow­ing the carriage (10) to be moved easily.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a relatively thin-walled and large-area moulded part from curable, in particular laminated material, for example plastic, in which the material is filled into a mould cavity bounded by a stretchable film and a positive and/or negative mould and distributed in the same evenly over the mould surface by vacuum and/or pressure. To provide a method in which it is ensured even with very small wall thicknesses that the material is distributed well and evenly over the mould surface, but in particular in the time available, so that in particular fibre mats laid in can be impregnated satisfactorily, the film bearing with a form fit against the positive and/or negative mould, which is provided with distributed grooves, is drawn into the said mould, at least partially into the grooves by pressure and/or vacuum and flow channels are formed, the material is evenly filled into the mould cavity via the flow channels under pressure and/or vacuum and distributed over the mould surface and, at the end of the distributing and moulding operation, the support film drawn into the grooves is moved back into the plane of the mould surface by pressure and/or vacuum.

Abstract: The present invention provides a testable precision variable gain current-to-voltage amplifier apparatus which includes an op amp (15) and has a test mode of operation wherein the gain is independent of the gain of the amplifier when operated in the normal amplification mode. The invention enables a test signal, preferably a test voltage (Vt), to be injected into the amplifier circuit to test the functioning of the op amp (15) and thus the amplifier. Because the gain of the amplifier in the test mode is independent of the gain of the amplifier when in the normal mode, a simple and easy method of checking the functioning of the op amp is provided which does not require knowing the gain of the amplifier and then selecting the proper test input to use.

The front endshield (33) of the motor (28), through which a motor shaft (42) extends, has mounting ears (32) integrally formed with it. A mounting plate (20) is provided for the washing machine. The plate (20) has a transmission (18) for transmitting power from the motor (28) to a tub (14) and agitator (16) of the washer (10). The mounting plate (20) includes a yoke (50) sized to support the motor (28) along an end-­shield ear (32) and a yoke arm (52) abutment. The yoke arms (52) have elongated slots (36) formed in them.

The transmission (18) has a corresponding shaft (24) ha­ving a drive pulley (26) mounted to it. The motor shaft (42) has a drive pulley (44) on it. The pulleys (26, 44) have a belt (46) extending between them, on the opposite side of the mounting plate (20) as the transmission (18) and motor arrangement (28). The mounting system maintains the pulleys (26, 44) in pla­nar relation to maximize power transfer and minimize belt wear. The structure attachment eliminates the need for more than a two point attachment with corres­ponding savings of material and assembly cost other­wise necessary with other prior art constructions.
