Title: Closed loop cyclic timing optimizer control system and method
Inventor: SIMON JONATHAN S
IPC: C03B9/41
Filed: 2012-02-21
Abstract: The invention relates to a system and method that automatically optimizes the cycles of events occurring in an I.S. machine by using information relating to the characteristics of the hot glass containers manufactured by the I.S, machine obtained by monitoring the containers immediately subsequent to their manufacture. 
     A measurement system (144) provides measurement information indicative of certain characteristics of hot glass containers (142) manufactured by the I.S. machine (140). A controller (154) uses the container measurement information to produce desired process durations (158) used to operate the I.S. machine to produce glass containers having desired characteristics. A cyclic timing adjustment system (160) automatically transforms the desired process durations from the controller (154) into machine timing signals (162) which are applied to the I.S, machine (140) by imposing constraints to maintain a predetermined cyclic order, to avoid mechanical interference or collisions, and to maintain a predetermined total or common cycle period.

Abstract: A rechargeable battery system, including a housing, a negative terminal, a positive terminal, and a third terminal. The housing substantially encloses a rechargeable electrical discharge member such as an electrochemical electrical storage device. The negative terminal is electrically coupled to the rechargeable electrical discharge member and may be electrically coupled to the housing. The positive terminal is electrically coupled to the rechargeable electrical discharge member and electrically isolated from the negative terminal. The third terminal is electrically coupled to the negative terminal. The third terminal is also physically isolated from both the positive and negative terminal. A non-conductive sleeve substantially encases the housing and the negative terminal around which the positive, negative, and third terminals are externally exposed. Therefore, an electrical device configured to operate with either a rechargeable or finite battery may selectively detect the electrical voltage across the positive and third terminal rather than the positive and negative terminal and automatically adjust the electrical operation to correspond with a rechargeable battery.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an image information encoding apparatus adapted for performing intra-image encoding on the basis of resolution of color components and color space of an input image signal. In the image information encoding apparatus (10), an intra prediction unit (23) serves to adaptively change block size in generating a prediction image on the basis of a chroma format signal indicating whether resolution of color components is that of any one of 4:2:0 format, 4:2:2 format and 4:4:4 format, etc., and a color space signal indicating whether color space is any one of YCbCr, RGB and XYZ, etc. An orthogonal transform unit (14) and a quantization unit (15) serve to change orthogonal transform technique and quantization technique in accordance with the chroma format signal and the color space signal. A reversible encoding unit (16) encodes the chroma format signal and the color space signal to include the encoded signals thus obtained into image compressed information.

Abstract: An automated method for calibrating in real time a diagnostic analyzer includes the steps of receiving diagnostic results of patient samples calculated by the analyzer using pre-set parameters of the analyzer, and calculating the centroid of the analyzer's diagnostic results. The centroid of the analyzer's diagnostic results is subtracted from a centroid of diagnostic results of a field population of comparable analyzers to obtain a bias in the centroid of the analyzer's diagnostic results. The bias is compared to predetermined limits. Should the bias fall outside the predetermined limits, an optimization factor is derived and applied to the analyzer's diagnostic results to obtain optimized results from the analyzer without changing the pre-set parameters of the analyzer.
