Patent EP-0313205-A2 (EP)
Inventor: PINKERNELL DAVID W
IPC: B41J2/05
Filed: 1988-09-12
Abstract: A printhead cartridge and carriage assembly (10) is provided comprising:
     (a) a carriage (12);   (b) a snap-spring (62) for securing a print­ing cartridge (14) in position on the carriage; and   (c) an interconnect strip (16) for supplying electrical signals to the cartridge, including a force loading spring pad (24) for urging a portion of the interconnect strip (1b) against a portion of the cartridge.   
     The cartridge has top (32), bottom (34), sides (36, 38), front (40) and rear (42) surfaces and in­cludes a printhead (44) on the bottom surface, an elec­trical contact strip (46) on the back surface connected to the printhead (44), referencing pads (56) on the side surfaces, and a lip (64) on the back surface for ac­cepting the snap-spring (62). 
     Referencing surfaces (60) are provided for receiv­ing the referencing pads on the cartridge. The spring pad (24) urges the interconnect strip (16) against the electrical contact of the cartridge. 
     The printhead cartridge/carriage assembly of the invention requires only one hand of the operator to both insert and lock the cartridge in position. Fur­ther, the cartridge/carriage assembly (10) provides simul­taneous alignment of the printhead (44) in the X, Y, and Z directions. Finally, contact between the printhead (44) and the interconnect strip (16) is reliably made each time the cartridge is inserted and locked in position, thereby ensuring proper nozzle firing each time.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a molding member (4), for instance for automobile front window plates (2), as well as a method of manufacturing such molding members (4). The molding member (4) has a lip section (4b, 4c) in the form of a ridge which extends throughout the entire length. The lip section (4b) bears against the surface of the window plate (2) along the upper portion (5) to realize a flush outer surface between the upper edge of the window plate (2) and the body panel (7), but is spaced therefrom along the side portions (6) to define a weir (8). The weir (8) can be formed by deforming a predetermined location of the ridge, and prevents flow of the rain water across the molding member (4) to preserve the driver's or passenger's sight through the window.

Filed: 1988-10-04
Abstract: An electric motor controller comprises a circuit for selecting between driving and braking an electric motor in accordance with the health or otherwise of a pair of main electric motor control switches (14 and 16). In a preferred embodiment the health of the switch is determined by the voltage (A) between the switches. The controller also comprises means for detecting the sense of movement of the motor. In the event that the motor is moving in a sense opposite to that selected, the means increase field current to reduce the armature current thereby increasing the braking effect of the motor. Also in the controller are means for changing from armature to field current control and vice versa, in response to a given magnitude of control signal. In order to provide an unambiguous change-over, a lockout circuit is provided to inhibit change-over in a transition region. The lockout circuit maintains the mode of control to above/beneath the change-over level when changing from one level to another. The controller has a drive circuit which uses a flywheel inductor to provide an enhanced actuating signal for a transistor control switch for the motor. In a first state, the inductor is connected to by-pass the transistor to build-up a flywheel current. In a second state, the flywheel current is arranged to be applied to the transistor as a spike input.

Abstract: A timer subsystem (21a) which provides a data processor (20) servicing the timer subsystem with the ability to inhibit the match recognition logic (150) of the timer subsystem while the processor is servicing the subsystem. The disclosed embodiment comprises a sixteen-channel timer subsystem (21a-21p) with a dedicated service processor (20). The service processor, under control of the micro-coded programs executing thereon, is capable of disabling a match recognition latch (150) in the timer channel currently being serviced. This feature provides the ability to prevent unwanted matches which occur while the service processor is updating the match register (132), for instance. Another feature of the timer subsystem is the inhibition of multiple matches to a single match register value by disabling the match recognition latch upon the occurrence of a match and re-enabling it only when the match register is written by the data processor.

Abstract: A system for controlling a lock-up clutch (18) comprises a lock-up control valve (32) including a spool (34) and a plug (38) in a spool bore. The spool is movable between a lock-up clutch engagement position and a lock-up clutch disengagement position. The plug is axially movably inserted at one end of the spool bore, and has a pressure acting area (39) whose diameter is larger than the maximal diameter of the spool. This pressure acting area is subject to a pressure when the transmission establishes the first or reverse speed. Thus, in the event the transmission establishes the first or reverse speed, the spool is displaced to the lock-up clutch disengagement position by a force applied to the pressure acting area of the plug.

Abstract: A new method and apparatus are provided for sensing refrigerant temperatures in refrigerator systems, and for the control of refrigerant loading in a plurality of refrigerator evaporator circuit coils (34a,34b) connected in parallel. Such evaporator coils are supplied with refrigerant through a thermostatically controlled flow control valve (30), which is controlled by a sensor (50) to restrict the flow of the liquid refrigerant and ensure a predetermined amount of superheat. The usual minimum superheat is about 5.5°C (10°F) and it is often found that the evaporator coil clearly is underloaded, and in the case of a multi circuit coil evaporator, that many of the circuit coils are underloaded. To avoid this the refrigerant is rendered thoroughly turbulent and mixed, and in the multi-coil evaporator the flows issuing from all of the circuit coils are similarly thoroughly turbulated and mixed, by a turbulating and/or mixing device (48) that intercepts the entire refrigerant flow just before the sensing of the superheat, thus ensuring that the temperature is accurately measured. In the multi-circuit coil system the device averages the temperatures of all the flows, any liquid from circuits with lower heat transfer being broken, mixed with and evaporated by superheated vapour from circuits with higher heat transfer. Different turbulator/mixer devices are described and two or more such devices may be used in flow series. The amount of superheat can now safely be reduced to about 2°C (4°F), the efficiency of the entire system is increased, and close matching between valve size and coil loading is no longer required.
