Abstract: A system for controlling tension improves carpet quality by maintaining tension along a primary backing material at a constant value. The system controls the tension by maintaining the speed of an entry pin roller slightly slower than the speed of an exit pin roller. The exit pin roller is driven with a main drive motor while the entry pin roller is independently driven by a separate vector drive motor. An encoder, coupled to the exit pin roller, is driven in synchronism with the exit pin roller and produces a pulsed output which is converted into an analog signal representative of the speed of the exit pin roller. A controller receives a user-defined desired value of tension and monitors outputs of a pair of load cells to determine the amount of tension actually on the primary backing material. Based on the difference between the actual value of tension and the desired value of tension, the controller produces a control signal which is fed to a drive circuit. The drive circuit drives the vector motor and, consequently, the entry pin roller at a speed dictated by the analog signal representing the speed of the exit pin roller and the control signal generated by the controller. The quality of the carpet produced by the tufting machine is improved since the stitch density and the carpet pattern may remain substantially constant whereby variations in patterns can be minimized.

Abstract: A control system is disclosed for controlling an image array sensor and controlling communication between the image array sensor and a microcontroller by way of a serial communication interface. The control system is able to efficiently control various aspects of the image array sensor such as windowing, mode of operation, sensitivity as well as other parameters in order to reduce the data throughput. An important aspect of the invention relates to the fact that the control circuit can be rather easily and efficiently configured in CMOS with relatively few output pins which enables the control circuit to be rather easily and efficiently integrated with CMOS based image array sensors and even the microcontroller to reduce the part count and thus, the overall cost of the system.

Abstract: The invention is a PERFECTED ECOLOGICAL CAGE-TRAP of the type used in nature parks and private game preserves to catch animals. It consists of a parallelepiped structure on a suitably extended rectangular base, open at the two smaller sides, where there are two doors with a perpendicular retention lug on one of their edges. the doors move vertically like a guillotine. Inside the cage, in the middle, there is a bar placed perpendicular to where the animal enters on which a platform balances. That bar has an "L" shaped lug which serves as a stop on the vertical part of a second "T" shaped bar, the connection between the doors and the platform which perpendicularly branches out in the upper part of the cage till reaching the two sides. The ends are "L" shaped and provide support for perpendicular lugs of both side doors. Adjacent to the parallelepiped structure is another structure of similar dimensions sharing a common wall, in which the bait is placed. The bait to attract the animal is placed in this structure.The prey, attracted by the bait, goes into the cage, upsets the balanced platform and the doors come down trapping the animal. The distance to the doors prevents the animal from escaping before they fall. The animal can be freed by manually lifting the doors up through the runners. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A flow display method enabling the state of flows in a plane to be grasped together with inflow into and outflow from that plane. A Doppler method, for example, is used to obtain a velocity profile at each point in a planar area (100) of interest defined in a three-dimensional flow. A flow rate profile in the planar area (100) is found on the basis of the thus obtained velocity profile. From the flow rate profile and the velocity profile there are determined source points (12) representative of inflow into the planar area (100) and sink points (14) representative of outflow therefrom. Contour lines in the flow rate profile then join the source points (12) and the sink points (14) to obtain a display of planar streamlines (10). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Apparatus for inspecting the sealing surface area (36) of a container finish (34) that includes a structured light source (44) positioned to direct a collimated line-shaped light beam (46) onto the sealing surface area of a container as the container is moved relative to the light source. The line-shaped light beam at the container sealing surface area has a long dimension orthogonal to the container axis that extends chordally across the sealing surface area, and a narrow dimension tangential to the container axis. A light sensor (52) is disposed to receive portions of the line-shaped light beam reflected from the sealing surface area, and provides an electrical output signal that varies with height or level of the sealing surface with respect to the light source and sensor. The sensor is coupled to associated electronics (60) for providing information indicative of sealing surface height. The elongated dimension of the line-shaped light beam at the container sealing surface area accommodates wobble or misalignment at the sealing surface with respect to the light source and sensor. Furthermore, the elongated radial dimension of the line-shaped light beam at the container sealing surface area produces a reflection on the sensor from any wire-edge or over-press within the container mouth, thus producing at the sensor information indicative of both existence and height of any such wire-edge or over-press.

Abstract: A straight, thin, monolithic abrasive wheel formed of hard and rigid abrasive grains and a sintered metal bond including a stiffness enhancing metal component exhibits superior stiffness. The metals can be selected from among many sinterable metal compositions. Blends of nickel and tin are preferred. The stiffness enhancing metal is a metal capable of providing substantially increased rigidity to the bond without significantly increasing bond hardness. Molybdenum, rhenium, tungsten and blends of these are favored. The sintered bond is generally formed from powders. A diamond abrasive, nickel/tin/molybdenum sintered bond abrasive wheel is preferred. Such a wheel is useful for abrading operations in the electronics industry, such as cutting silicon wafers and alumina-titanium carbide pucks. The stiffness of the novel abrasive wheels is higher than conventional straight monolithic wheels and therefore improved cutting precision and less chipping can be attained without increase of wheel thickness and concomitant increased kerf loss.
