Patent NZ-736079-A (NZ)
Title: Three stage watercraft
Inventor: SCHULZ WALTER
IPC: B64C35/02
Filed: 2016-03-24
Abstract: A three stage watercraft for operation in the water as a traditional boat at low speeds in stage one, for operation on the water’s surface at mid-range speeds at stage two, and for traveling in ground effect at higher range speeds is disclosed. The three stage craft includes a hydro-wing 12, either at least a single hydrofoil 13 or gyration rotor 14 to aid with lift from stage one to stage two, and a pair of outboard floats or hydro-floats 16a, 16b supported by the hydro-wing 12, which are also designed to aid with lift from stage one to stage two. The combination of the hydrofoils (or alternatively, a gyration rotor), the hydro-wing hull and hydro-floats provide for an improved wing-in-ground craft that has enhanced performance when traveling both in the water, transitioning out of the water, and traveling in ground effect that does not require specialized training as other conventional wing-in-ground craft.

Abstract: FIELD: railway transport; maintenance and repair of permanent way. SUBSTANCE: first full-scale deflection of track in plan is measured when levelling machine passes along track section to be aligned at measuring mode. Then, with machine moving into initial point, track section with constant full-scale deflection is revealed by means of autocorrelation function. Basing on dispersion of full-scale deflection chart, smoothing parameters are found. Using method of splines and smoothing parameter, full-scale deflection chart is smoothed out. Beginning of easement curve is found from the following equation: $$$ for all $$$ where $$$ is minimum tolerable length of easement curve. Then, inscribing a trapezium into full-scale deflection chart, length of easement curves and radii of circular curves are found. Basing on obtained chart of designed deflection, value of command deflection is found, and command deflections are optimized. With machine returned into initial point, track is aligned according to formula: $$$ where X(i) is current measured position of track; D(i) is designed position of track in this point and at S:-1 control signal is sent for right-hand shifting (levelling) of track, and at $: +1 control signal is sent for left-hand shifting (levelling) of track.

Title: Chip-mounted contact springs
Inventor: RUTTEN IVO WILHELMUS JOHANNES MRIE
IPC: G01R1/073
Filed: 2002-11-06
Abstract: Bonding wire is formed into an inverted "V" shape by bonding both ends of a bonding wire to adjacent points on an integrated circuit, the vertex of the "V" shape forming a contact point for contacting another integrated circuit, or other device, One end of the bonding wire is bonded to a specified point on the integrated circuit, the bonding head is raised, and then lowered to an immediately adjacent point to effect the second bonding, thus forming the inverted V shape. This V shape, being bonded at both ends, is mechanically stable, is resilient in form, and allows for the use of resilient, or non-resilient bonding wire. The vertex of the V shape forms a point or surface for contacting another integrated circuit, or other device, for communicating signals to and from the device to which the bonding wire is bonded.

Title: Dynamic random access memory system with bank conflict avoidance feature
Inventor: BOUCHARD GREGG A
IPC: G06F13/16
Filed: 2002-11-26
Abstract: A memory system having multiple memory banks is configured to prevent bank conflict between access requests. The memory system includes a memory controller and a plurality of memory banks operatively coupled to the memory controller, with each of the memory banks configured for storing a plurality of data items. More particularly, a given data item is stored as multiple copies of the data item with a given one of the multiple copies in each of a designated minimum number of the memory banks. The memory controller is adapted to process requests for access to the data items stored in the memory banks in accordance with a specified bank access sequence. The minimum number of memory banks for storage of the multiple copies of the given data item may be determined as a function of a random cycle time and a random bank access delay of the memory banks, e.g., as an integer greater than or equal to a ratio of the random cycle time to the random bank access delay. The memory system is preferably operable in the above-described bank conflict avoidance mode as well as a standard random access mode. The memory system is particularly well-suited for use in an application involving an unbalanced ratio of read and write accesses, e.g., as an external tree memory for a network processor integrated circuit, but can also be used in numerous other processing device memory applications.
