Patent EP-1529146-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MURRAY JAMES S
IPC: E05F15/16
Filed: 2003-07-25
Abstract: An operator system and related methods ( 10 ) for sensing forces on a movable barrier ( 12 ) includes a motor ( 52 ), a trolley ( 30 ), and a trolley arm ( 34 ) having a first end slidably supported by the trolley ( 38 ) and a second end coupled to the movable barrier. The motor moves the trolley arm which in turn moves the movable barrier. A force detection mechanism ( 68 ) is coupled to the motor to determine a first component force value applied by the motor. A controller ( 54 ) receives the first component force value and determines a detected force value by scaling the first component force value with a second component force value derived from an angular position of the trolley arm's first end with respect to the trolley. The angular position of the trolley arm may be fixed or variable. An angle potentiometer ( 72 ) is coupled to the trolley arm to generate an angle signal for use as the second component force value when the trolley arm's angular position is allowed to vary.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un étourdisseur d'animaux à fonctionnement pneumatique fournissant un niveau élevé d'énergie d'étourdissement destinée à produire une commotion et à assommer un animal sans perforation, par l'accélération d'une tige d'étourdissement légère jusqu'à une vitesse élevée. Pour réduire le poids au minimum, la tige d'étourdissement est de préférence creuse et faite en matériau léger. Un piston pourvu d'un revêtement antifriction et coulissant à l'intérieur d'un cylindre entraîne ladite tige. Le cylindre est pressurisé avant le fonctionnement, et un loquet retient le piston jusqu'à ce qu'il soit déclenché. Pour augmenter la vitesse de la tige d'étourdissement, l'air est ventilé devant la tige, de sorte à empêcher une accumulation d'air pressurisé qui pourrait la ralentir. Une extrémité de la tige d'étourdissement est pourvue d'une tête d'impact de diamètre important, constituée en un matériau résistant à la déformation. L'extrémité opposée est fabriquée à partir d'un matériau résistant à l'usure, et vient en contact avec le loquet. La distance d'extension de la tête d'impact au-delà de l'extrémité avant de l'outil est limitée et peut de préférence être réglée. Un butoir interne refroidi à l'air et présentant une forme déterminée est disposé de sorte à absorber le niveau très élevé d'énergie d'étourdissement de la tige, sans provoquer de dégâts.

Abstract: A duobinary-to-binary signal converter includes a pair of comparators
coupled to a logic gate. Each comparator receives a copy of a duobinary-encoded analog signal
applied to the converter and is designed to generate a binary output based on the comparison of the
magnitude of the received signal with a corresponding threshold voltage. The outputs of the
comparators are fed into the logic gate, which generates a binary sequence corresponding to the
duobinary-encoded signal. A representative converter of the invention can perform relatively well
at bit rates as high as about 40 Gb/s and can be conveniently incorporated into an appropriate
integrated device (e.g., an ASIC) for a data transmission system employing duobinary signaling.

menu items referencing the last locations accessed by the end user device. The end user can
therefore choose any one of the previously accessed locations and, upon activation of the menu
items, the location referenced by the menu item is accessed. Each location accessed by the end
user device creates or modifies a record that notes details relating to how that location is
accessed. The mode of the end user device, the address or channel for the location, and any
related or required software is noted in the record along with a short but useful description of the
location. Each record is referenced by one of the menu items and, upon activation of the menu
item, the record is retrieved. The end user device then uses the details in the record the record is
retrieved. The end user device then uses the details in the record to access the desired location.
