Title: Contour forming of metals by laser peening
Inventor: HACKEL LLOYD
IPC: B23K26/356
Filed: 2000-06-26
Granted: 2011-06-07
Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for forming shapes and contours in metal sections by generating laser induced compressive stress on the surface of the metal workpiece. The laser process can generate deep compressive stresses to shape even thick components without inducing unwanted tensile stress at the metal surface. The precision of the laser-induced stress enables exact prediction and subsequent contouring of parts. A light beam of 10 to 100 J/pulse is imaged to create an energy fluence of 60 to 200 J/cm2 on an absorptive layer applied over a metal surface. A tamping layer of water is flowed over the absorptive layer. The absorption of laser light causes a plasma to form and consequently creates a shock wave that induces a deep residual compressive stress into the metal. The metal responds to this residual stress by bending.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a fin-stabilized artillery shell (1) comprising a body part (8, 26, 36) which can be axially displaced rearwards, in the direction of flight of the shell, once the latter has left the barrel from which it has been fired, and which in the original position is fully retracted in the shell (1), and in which a number of deployable fins (18, 24, 29-30, 42-47) are in turn secured, and from which the fins are automatically deployed as soon as the body part has reached its rear position in which it is locked relative to the rest of the shell. One of the advantages of the invention is that in the flight position it gives the shell a greater length than is permitted by the charging position of the artillery piece launching the shell. This gives the shell considerably better stability in its trajectory towards the target. The invention also includes different embodiments of the body part (8, 26, 36) which can be tubular (8) or cylinder-shaped (26) and accommodate different types of fins (18-24, 29-30, 42-47) and also in certain configurations a built-in base-bleed unit (3). The body part can also be divided into two parts (27, 34 and 37, 38) which rotate freely relative to each other and which allow the fins (18-24, 29-30, 42-47) to spin freely relative to the rest of the shell (1) which has been shown to make the latter more easily manoeuvred without impairing its directional stability.

Granted: 2006-12-12
Abstract: Une source pratique d'énergie pour charger les appareils de communication portatifs consiste en un noud énergétique intégré dans un bus de données informatiques, comme un port USB (universal serial bus). Malheureusement, les ports USB ont une capacité énergétique limitée, ce qui les rend généralement incompatibles avec les contrôleurs de charge de batterie (CCB) qui sont conçus pour recevoir une alimentation électrique constante de grande capacité. L'invention propose un circuit de charge de batterie qui ajuste les paramètres d'une alimentation électrique externe tel qu'un port USB par l'ajout d'un circuit de régulation à un design standard de CCB. Ce circuit de régulation optimise le courant consommé par le CCB, tout en maintenant la tension au-dessus d'un minimum prédéfini (la limite basse du voltage qui arrête le CCB). Si la tension du CCB commence à baisser, le circuit de régulation réduit le courant utilisé, la tension remonte et reste dans la plage de fonctionnement du CCB.
