Title: Fastening shoe to pedal
Inventor: BERNARD JEAN
IPC: B62M3/08
Filed: 1984-12-07
Granted: 1987-05-14
Abstract: A device for fastening a shoe on a bicycle pedal comprises a mounting support secured to the sole of the shoe and a pedal provided with a claw for retaining the mounting support. A twisting movement of the cyclist's foot permits lateral disengagement of the shoe by means of V-shaped control surfaces which are formed respectively on the mounting support and on the claw and are capable of producing a rearward withdrawal of the claw. The pedal is provided with fixed bearing stops which are so arranged as to absorb all the efforts exerted by the mounting support in a rearward direction in the course of normal pedaling, thus preventing any untimely shoe release.

Title: Combined laser/FLIR optics system
Inventor: HOUSAND BRIEN J
IPC: G01R31/00
Filed: 1997-04-01
Granted: 2000-08-24
Abstract: In a FLIR/laser based targeting and imaging system, the ability to recognize, detect, locate, and/or track targets in an area of interest is significantly improved by reducing the fixed and dynamic alignment errors between the IR LOS and the laser LOS. Fixed alignment errors are reduced with an improved internal boresight module and corresponding boresight method. Dynamic alignment errors are reduced with an opto-electric subsystem that employs a single pitch bearing and a common pitch/yaw afocal for both the laser energy and the IR energy. A segmented window in the system housing includes a circular EMI grid pattern which significantly reduces the amount of off-axis EMI entering the optical pathways, and improved signal processing techniques are employed to enhance the quality of the IR image after the image has been digitized.

Title: Method of noise rejection in a magnetostrictive position detector including determining a valid time range for propagation of sonic pulses over a reference distance
Inventor: BEGIN JOHN D
IPC: G01B7/02
Filed: 1993-07-16
Granted: 1996-07-04
Abstract: A position detection probe having a magnetostrictive wire stretched between a head and a reflective foot end termination, and a magnet movable along the probe uses the sonic pulse propagation time from the magnet to the head as one parameter and the time from the magnet to the foot and reflected back to the head as another parameter for determining the magnet position. The sum of the propagation times is a constant which is used as a reference value. Upon receipt of the first two pulses the propagation times are summed and compared to the reference value, and the data is accepted if the sum is within a prescribed window around the reference value. When noise occurs, it creates a false measure of propagation time so that the sum of the propagation times is no longer equal to the reference value and the data is rejected.

Abstract: A process for the production of grain oriented magnetic steel sheets comprises through-heating slabs containing more than 0.005% C, 2.5 to 6.5% Si, 0.03 to 0.15% Mn, 0.010 to 0.050% S, 0.010 to 0.035% Al, 0.0045 to 0.0120% N, and 0.020 to 0.300% Cu, the balance being iron and residual impurities, to a temperature which is lower than the solubility temperature T1 of magnesium sulfide and higher than the solubility temperature T2 of copper sulfide, T1 and T2 being dependent on the silicon content. The through-heated slabs are then hot roughed, followed by hot finish rolling at an initial temperature of at least 960 DEG  C. and a final rolling temperature of 880 DEG  C. to 1,000 DEG  C., to produce a hot rolled strip having a thickness in the range of 1.5 to 7 mm. During this last step, at least 60% of the total nitrogen content precipitates in the form of coarse AlN particles. Thereafter, the hot rolled strips are annealed at temperature of 880 DEG  C. to 1,150 DEG  C., followed by cooling at a cooling rate higher than 15  DEG  K./sec to induce further precipitation of AlN and copper sulfide particles. Thereafter the strip is cold rolled in one or more cold rolling stages to a final strip thickness of 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm, subjected to recrystallization and decarburization annealing in a wet atmosphere containing H2 and N2. A separating agent containing mainly MgO is then applied to both surfaces of the strip. The strip is then high temperature annealed, an insulating coating is applied and the strip is subjected to a final annealing.

Abstract: An alternator generates output power at two or more independent voltages (V A ,V B ). The alternator has two independent output windings (110,112) configured to generate the power needed for each output (126,128). Each output voltage (V A ,V B ) is sensed by a regulator (106) that controls switching rectifiers (114,116) to supply the current needed to satisfy the electric power demand of the loads (102,104) connected to each output (126,128). After both output load demands are satisfied, the regulator (106) switches off the alternator field (108). When power demand from either load (102,104) rises, the alternator field (108) is switched on along with the respective switching rectifier (114,116) to satisfy the power demand. The output voltage grounds and control signals may be electrically isolated from each other.
