Title: Method of automatically repairing cracks and apparatus for use in such method
Inventor: TSUNATANI TOSHIHIKO
IPC: B23P6/00
Filed: 2002-09-13
Granted: 2006-07-11
Abstract: The invention provides a method and apparatus for automatically repairing the cracks produced in the member to be repaired. A wide field image is obtained by photographing the whole surface of a blade 31 or the like in a wide field view by a remote camera 11 and the position of cracks on the surface of the blade is obtained as a rough position information of the cracks by processing the image of wide field view. Then, the cracks are photographed in a narrow field view at the predetermined spacing along the cracks based on the rough position information by light section method. The narrow field images are processed to obtain the position, width, and depth of the crack at each predetermined spacing, which compose crack data at the series of points, and the cracks are repaired based on the crack data at the series of points.

Abstract: An coin sensor utilizes time-multiplexing of LC oscillators having natural frequencies F1A, F1B, F2, and F3 to produce magnetic fields in three sets of windings. As a coin passes through the coin sensor, the LC oscillators are separately enabled in a sequence to produce a frequency profile for each set of windings. A first winding produces a frequency profile for a cross-sectional area of a coin, and a third winding produces a frequency profile for further distinguishing the relative size of a coin. A microcontroller identifies signatures points from the frequency profiles and compares the signature points with stored signatures for a multitude of coins and/or tokens.

Granted: 2008-05-06
Abstract: A shortcut routing method to improve packet routing between a visiting mobile host connected to a subnet and a communicating host on the network or the same subnet. When a router receives an IP tunnel packet from a network interface on the visited network, it checks the inner IP packet for its final destination. If the destination IP address of the inner IP packet can be reached from the same network interface, the router decapsulates the IP tunnel packet and sends the inner IP packet directly to the communicating host on the subnet. For every outbound IP packet sent to the communicating host by the visiting mobile host, a portion of the round trip between the mobile host and home agent, is thereby eliminated. Optionally, the router can shortcut IP packets sent from the communicating host to the visiting mobile host, as the visiting host remains on the same subnet as the communicating host.

Abstract: Improved drilling and pinning machines and methods for processing elongate flexible e.g. rubber strips of seal material for forming seals about openings. The machines and methods form precisely positioned holes in the rubber strip, and insert pins in the holes. Opposing ends of the pins are ultimately received in cooperating holes in the opening, mounting the seal strip to the opening. Machines and methods of the invention temporarily fix a strip or portion of the seal material to a rigid component of the machine. While the seal material is fixedly held, first and second holes are formed in general alignment with the length of the strip, or a subsequent hole is formed wherein location of the subsequent hole is based on location of a previously-formed hole. The formed holes and/or inserted pins are automatically inspected. The inspection information is forwarded to, and used by, the machine controller.
