Title: Three-dimensional inspection apparatus for hollow bodies
IPC: G01N21/90
Filed: 1990-11-16
Abstract: A conveyor (12) moves the hollow body (esp. bottle) on a circular path through an inspection region, where it is tuned about an axis of symmetry, parallel to the axis of the circular path. A unit (16) illuminates the body in the inspection region. A photodetector receives the light from the body. Plane mirrors (34) are arranged at a given angle to one another in the light path between the inspection region and the photodetector. - The speed of the conveyor and of the rotation of the body are chosen so that the body makes one turn in the inspection zone and 1/n of a turn for each of n mirrors. The angle between one mirror and another, with the plane of the mirror at right angles to the plane of the conveyor tracks, is 1/n of the total angle of the inspection region.

Title: Aircraft ground-handling vehicle
IPC: B64F1/22
Filed: 1988-01-22
Abstract: A towing vehicle for moving aircraft without a towing bar has a driving frame (5) with a forked receiving space formed between the wheels of an axle, in which is arranged a retractable and extendable gripping and pulling device (28, 68) that cooperates with a lifting device and that engages the nose wheel (24) of the aircraft, pulling it on a paddle (14) up and down with respect to the driving frame. A single paddle (14) is provided to support the nose wheel (24) in the proximity of the line of influence of the nose wheel load, thus preventing blocking and deforming forces from acting upon the nose wheel (24) while this is pulled or lifted. The paddle can pivot around a horizontal axis arranged on the driving frame, and its pivoting position can be controllably adjusted relative to the driving frame. In a further development, the paddle can additionally tilt at an angle to the horizontal axis, thus preventing unacceptable strains when the towing vehicle carrying the nose wheel follows a curved path. Preferably, the paddle is steered on the driving frame by means of a parallelogram or trapezoid linkage (70, 71, 73, 74).

Patent EP-0701209-A3 (EP)
Inventor: FULTON III N DUDLEY
IPC: G06F11/00
Filed: 1995-08-30
Abstract: Software rejuvenation techniques which improve reliability of a software system by
stopping execution of the system and restarting the execution with "clean" state. The
rejuvenation techniques are generally available to applications executing in a
computer system. The techniques are implemented using a daemon process which
observes applications registered with it and restarts them if they crash or hang and a
process like the cron process of the UNIX operating system. The daemon process
responds to a rejuvenation specification which indicates that an application which is
registered with it be rejuvenated by making a script for the cron process which
specifies that the application's process be killed. When the cron process executes
the script and kills the application, the daemon process observes that the application
is dead and restarts it. In restarting the application, the daemon process may use
state previously saved by the application for that purpose. The specification further
contains parameters for the time at which the rejuvenation is to be performed (or the
period between rejuvenations), for the manner in which the application is to be
rejuvenated, and for operations to be performed when the application is killed.
