Title: Transport ordening system
Inventor: ASHLEY MICHAEL DAVID
IPC: B65G47/68
Filed: 1987-07-29
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling the travel of articles through an article transport mechanism 2 having a multiplicity of lines of travel for the articles to different destinations 3, which method comprises observing the passage of an article past one of a plurality of sensor units 1 mounted in series along the lines of travel and identifying the identity and/or the destination of that article from information passed to the said one sensor unit 1 from a preceding sensor unit 1, comparing the actual travel duration of the article from that preceding sensor unit 1 to the said one sensor unit with the expected duration of that travel to establish that the observed article is a valid article conforming to the identity and/or destination information provided from the preceding sensor unit 1, transmitting the information of the passage of the article and its identity and/or destination to a succeeding sensor unit 1 along the line of travel and, where required, actuating means 4 for diverting the article onto a different line of travel 2 or into its final destination 3 off the transport mechanism 2. 
     The invention also provides a sensor assembly and a sensor unit for use in the method of the invention and an article transport mechanism incorporating such sensor units and sensor assemblies.

The third type of individual component comprises plug rods which correspond in length to the edge of the cube and which are introduced into the bores in the L-shaped bodies to form the cube. In this arrangement, the plug rods are so arranged in the cube that two plug rods in each case, in each of the three spatial directions, extend parallel at a distance of 2/3 of the edge length of the cube and are arranged about the centre of the cube. <IMAGE>

IPC: G06F9/38
Filed: 1989-05-25
Abstract: In a microcomputer system comprising a microprocessor and a cache subsystem and operable in a pipelined mode, there is potential incompatibility between pipelined operations and dynamic bus sizing as the cache subsystem operates with a fixed size data width and dynamic bus sizing allows the system to operate with devices of differing data width. This incompatibility is accommodated by the present system by defining certain addresses as cacheable addresses and other addresses as non-cacheable addresses and ensuring that addresses of devices of data width different from the cache data width are non-cacheable. An address decoder provides a control signal indicating whether or not a generated address is within the cacheable range. This control signal controls a next address signal applied to the microprocessor, which signal allows the processor to proceed to a following cycle prior to the end of the current cycle. Whenever a non-cacheable address is detected, the next address signal is suppressed.

Abstract: Apparatus (10) for machining a human tooth includes a rotary cutter (22) that is moved along a predetermined path dictated by motor energizing signals. The cutter is moved vertically by one drive, laterally by another drive and in or out by a third drive. The apparatus is clamped selectively to the patient's jaw or to a model thereof. The dentist's manual work is actually done on a model, with the apparatus being secured to the model in a fixed position. The vertical drive, the lateral drive, and the in or out drive are energized in response to the dentist's manipulation of a joy stick to move the cutter along paths necessary to achieve the desired tooth configuration. A second joy stick is manipulated to vary the attitude of the cutter, about roll and/or pitch axes. Signals proportionate to the extent of each drive operator are delivered to a computer in the sequence and for the period during which the drives are activated. When the machining is completed on the model, the restoration is prepared from the model, and the patient is then called back. The device is then secured to the patient's jaw so that it is in precisely the same relative position as on the model. Then, the computer delivers signals to the appropriate drive motors (M1, M2, M3) to repeat the appropriate machine strokes in the proper sequence to duplicate the machining previously done on the model.
