Patent EP-2000233-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GADDI ROBERTO
IPC: B22C9/10
Filed: 2008-06-06
Abstract: In the method according to the invention, a ring shaped expendable core is heated and then is oriented by manually placing it onto an orienting support. The core is then taken by a robot (54) that, while transferring the core towards the chill mould, maintains the orientation given to the core by the orienting support. A holding tool (56) is mounted onto the robot and is equipped with spring leaves (72) for seizing the expendable core without deforming or breaking it. An annular projection (70) assists in further containing the thermal deformations of the ring-shaped core before the latter is placed into the mould. Thus quick times can be achieved for the loading cycle, with a reduced number of apparatus stops and a low percentage of expendable cores that are damaged or badly loaded into the chill mould. The apparatus is robust and resistant to the foundry environment. The invention also concerns the core loading tool and apparatus.

Abstract: The present invention uses invisible junctions which are a set of local features unique to every page of the electronic document to match the captured image to a part of an electronic document. The present invention includes: an image capture device, a feature extraction and recognition system and database. When an electronic document is printed, the feature extraction and recognition system captures an image of the document page. The features in the captured image are then extracted, indexed and stored in the database. Given a query image, the features in the query image are extracted and compared against those stored in the database to identify the query image. The feature extraction and recognition system of the present invention is integrated into a multifunction peripheral. This allows the feature extraction and recognition system to be used in conjunction with other modules to provide security and annotation applications.

Abstract: A system and a method of Zigbee communication for actively selecting and accessing a Zigbee network. The Zigbee communication system includes multiple Zigbee coordinators forming multiple Zigbee networks for transmitting information on services of end-devices currently accessing each of the formed multiple Zigbee networks; and an end-device for receiving the information on the services, analyzing the received information on the services, selecting a predetermined one of the multiple Zigbee networks based on results of the analysis, and accessing the selected Zigbee network. Accordingly, the end-device can search services provided by other end-devices over a Zigbee network without gaining access to the Zigbee network, thereby reducing unnecessary resource consumption and wasted time caused by accessing and exiting each Zigbee network by a conventional end-device for service search.

Abstract: It is a task of the present invention to provide an apparatus which can be used for surely correcting an ingrown nail within a very short time (30 min to 1 hr) with a very simple operation and without pain. In the present invention, this task has been accomplished by an apparatus comprising: an upstanding push-down member having at its lower end a push-down head; a laterally extending, lifting angle maintenance means secured at its middle portion to the push-down member; and lifting members (having anchors at their lower ends) extending downwardly from portions of the maintenance means which are opposite relative to the middle portion of the maintenance means at which the push-down member is secured. When the lifting members are placed under tension, the anchors secured to side portions of a nail are lifted to exert a lifting force on the side portions while causing the push-down member to push the middle portion of the nail in its thicknesswise direction.
