Abstract: An implement for automatically milking a dairy animal, such as a cow (72), comprises a sensor (24, 28) for forming an image of an observation area, and a milking robot (16) which is operatively connected to the sensor (24, 28), wherein the sensor (24, 28) comprises: 
a source of radiation (34) for modulated electromagnetic radiation (26, 30; 36, 40), a receiver device for radiation (46) reflected by an object (44), sensor image processing means (52), 
 
wherein the receiver device comprises a matrix of receivers (50-1, 50-2, 50-3), and the sensor image processing means (52) determine for each of the receivers a phase difference between the emitted radiation (40) and the reflected radiation (46) in order to calculate a distance to the object (44). 
     It is thus possible to obtain a 3D-image, by means of which an improved control between, for example, a teat cup (22) and a teat (62-1, 62-2) becomes possible.

Abstract: A detector for identifying a fluid is disclosed. The detector comprises a probe having a thermistor, the probe being arranged to be exposed to a fluid and to allow thermal flow between the fluid and the thermistor; a temperature sensor to measure the ambient temperature of the fluid and a controller. The controller is arranged to supply electrical power to the thermistor and to provide an output indicative of the identity of the fluid based upon whether the electrical power supplied to the thermistor is above or below a threshold value. The threshold value is adjustable in accordance with the measured ambient temperature of the fluid. Examples of such a detector provide reliable fluid identification despite variations in ambient temperature of the fluid and such a detector may be compact, inexpensive, reliable and robust.

IPC: G01C21/34
Filed: 2007-01-02
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un logiciel de calcul d'itinéraire dans lesquels est utilisée une procédure d'acheminement en deux étapes. Tout d'abord, le logiciel de navigation calcule un itinéraire provisoire à l'aide de segments de route possédant une classification de route prédéterminée. Cette action permet de simplifier l'itinéraire, car le nombre de routes est réduit à un minimum. Le résultat obtenu est brut et doit être soumis à d'autres calculs pour obtenir le meilleur résultat possible. Afin d'obtenir le meilleur résultat possible, le logiciel de navigation détermine un paramètre de distance. Ce paramètre détermine la distance qui est utilisée pour effectuer d'autres calculs à partir de l'itinéraire provisoire. Ensuite, le nouveau calcul peut être concentré sur la zone géographique, avec un ensemble de routes et de rues complet.

Abstract: A device for processing foodstuffs in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure includes an upper part, a drive mechanism and a lower part with a working container, in which a working unit can be manually driven and made to rotate by means of the drive mechanism. The drive mechanism includes a tractive cable drive and is operatively connected to the working unit by means of a releasable torque-coupled connection. The drive mechanism also includes a primary and secondary drive unit, which are operatively interconnected by means of a gear in such a way that a transmission ratio of between 1:1.5 and 1:4 and preferably between 1:1.8 and 1:1.9 is achieved. The primary and secondary drive units are axially parallel and dimensioned in such a way that at least one of the drive units intersects the rotational axis of the other respective drive unit. Despite the transmission ratio achieved, the dimensions of the drive mechanism can be kept small, allowing said mechanism to be housed without any problems in the upper part. The non-employment of two continuous axes, the eccentric arrangement of the drive wheel axis and the use of a drive wheel with inner gearing allow an axial wheel for indirectly driving the drive unit to be mounted on the central axis of the device in a preferred embodiment and the transmission to be achieved by the larger drive wheel, without causing the space required in the upper part next to the axial pin to increase by the diameter of the drive wheel.
