Patent CA-2200619-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PETERSON RUDOLPH ANDREW JR
IPC: F01P11/16
Filed: 1997-03-20
Abstract: An overheat protection circuit includes a resistor having a first lead connected to the engine temperature switch and the PTO relay coil circuit. The second lead of the resistor is connected to the output of an interlock circuit to provide energizing voltage signal to the PTO relay for operation of the PTO driven attachment when preselected operating conditions are present on the vehicle. If for any reason the engine temperature rises above a preselected maximum operating temperature, the engine temperature switch will close and cause the voltage at the second lead to drop below the minimum operating voltage of the PTO relay. The PTO relay deenergizes to remove drive from the attachment. The PTO cannot be reengaged until the engine operating temperature drops below the maximum operating temperature. The resistor preferably is a positive temperature coefficient thermistor to reduce power dissipation through the circuit while the temperature switch is closed and the PTO relay is deenergized.

Title: Method and apparatus for operating resources under control of a security module or other secure processor
Inventor: SHEETS JOHN F
IPC: G06F21/71
Filed: 1996-07-26
Abstract: A method and apparatus for operating a set of resources (74-77) under the control of a secure processor, e.g., security module (50), having a command authentication means and a command execution means, to achieve secure control of the resources. The secure processor stores a set of command primitives (52) for functional control of the resources. A set of defined commands for invoking command primitives has either a secured command format including a command sequence ID, a command code, and a set of command data items or a non-secured command format including a command code and a set of command data items. The secure processor stores a command set up table including command type flags to designate each command as a secured command or a non-secured command.    An application program (61) running in an external device includes a plurality of the defined commands in either secured command format or the non-secured command format and these are sent one at a time to the secure processor for execution. The secure processor looks up each received command in the command set up table, and if the command is a non-secured command it immediately executes associated command primitives. If the command is a secured command, the secure processor tests both its authenticity and regularity and only executes the associated command primitives if the command passes both tests.
