Abstract: A machine for advancing a strip of sheet metal in measured increments includes a main frame and subframes supported on transverse ways on the main frame so that the subframes may be moved toward and away from each other to vary the spacing between them. The subframes lie along a path that accommodates the sheet metal strip, and at their forward ends have fixed gripping units which clamp down on the strip to prevent it from moving in the path. The subframes have tracks along which movable gripping units move to and fro. The movable gripping units also have the capacity to clamp down on the strip. Each subframe also carries an endless chain which is driven by a hydraulic motor on the subframe to move the movable gripping unit for the subframe along its track. Basically, the movable gripping units alternately grip the strip and advance it, so that while one gripping unit is propelling the strip forwardly, the other is returning to its initial position to thereafter grip the strip and propel it. In the intervals between successive advances, the fixed gripping units clamp down on the strip and the strip is cut at a shear to provide panels of equal length. A hydraulic cylinder exerts a constant force on the chain that drives each movable gripping unit to maintain that chain taut. Each of the fixed and movable gripping units has a pair of pads along which it actually clamps against the metal strip. One pad of the pair lies in a pocket form which it is easily extracted to make room for removal of the other pad

Abstract: A hay distributor is provided that distributes large rectangular hay bales or flakes of hay, operating on a conveyor principle wherein the bales are slowly advanced from the bed of the vehicle to its edge as the vehicle is driven, whereupon by mechanical action the bale is cleaved to flake. A base plate is provided, forming a pivoting point of retrofit attachment of the main frame of the invention to the vehicle bed. The base plate provides a mounting means for conversion of invention between side or rear-end distribution of hay from the bed of the vehicle.      Next, an operating main frame comprises a) rails, having a initial end and a terminal end, along which a hay bale is advanced, and b) incline-adjustable ramps disposed in the path of the rails at their terminal ends, over which the bale advances on its approach to the edge of the bed of the vehicle, which ramps cause natural cleavage of the bale into individual flakes by creating a line of stress. The flakes thus fall off the edge of the vehicle bed, without operator assistance. A skid assembly travels on the rails to drive the bales, and, a remotely-operated motor unit drives the skid assembly. The motor unit may employ a) a winch mounted to the vehicle bed remote from the operating frame and 2) a cable and pulley assembly to transfer drive forces to the skid assembly.

Title: Continuously cutting pieces from moving endless material
Inventor: HAUER DIRK
IPC: C03B33/027
Filed: 2001-01-05
Granted: 2005-02-08
Abstract: To shorten the processing time in modern plants for cutting away pieces or sections from a continously moving endless material, e.g. a glass strip, one after the other by flying cutting the cutting bridge carrying the cutting device (6) is accelerated until at a speed within a predetermined tolerance range of the feed speed of the continuously running endless material. Then the cutting bridge speed is synchronized for each piece or section to be cutaway and the cutting away of each piece or section takes place after the synchronization. To attain a very high precision cutting the spacing of the front cut edge formed when the previous piece or section is cut away from the cutting device is measured by means of an image-taking device (7) prior to cutting away of the next piece or section. Then the measured spacing is compared with a set value for the spacing and the speed of the cutting bridge is synchronized or fine tuned according to the comparison prior to cutting away the next piece or section.

Granted: 2008-04-08
Abstract: Il est possible de déterminer directement la fréquence fondamentale d'événements d'électro-insulo-graphie (EIG) sans avoir préalablement détecté les événements eux-mêmes. On utilise à cet effet une fenêtre d'analyse contenant plus d'un événement (3-5), et des techniques (1-8) assez voisines de celles servant à détecter et estimer la hauteur d'un son dans le traitement de la voix. L'invention se base sur deux découvertes biologiques importantes. La première est que l'EIG est produit par un pacemaker fonctionnel, et la deuxième est que le signal d'EIG est presque toujours quasi-périodique, l'utilisation d'algorithmes de détection de hauteur de sons reposant sur la nature essentiellement quasi-périodique du signal EIG. Quasi-périodique signifie que les intervalles entre deux événements successifs ne sont pas exactement identiques mais peuvent varier légèrement, et que l'amplitude et la forme d'événements successifs peuvent également présenter certaines différences.
