Patent EP-0527009-A3 (EP)
IPC: B65G61/00
Filed: 1992-07-27
Abstract: A postage meter has a meter section powered by house current in normal operation, but which requires auxiliary power source batteries (30,31) while in transit. A circuit is provided which, in connection with a stored program, tests the auxiliary power source prior to the period away from the house current power, thus providing a warning if the auxiliary power is unlikely to sustain the device for the duration of the period away from house current power. The test circuit applies a test load (33) approximating the load of the meter section to be powered. A loop in the program of a CPU (70) determines the period of time during which the test load is applied to the batteries and then a voltage comparator (53) assures that the battery output voltage is sufficiently high in the range of usable voltage therefrom to assure successful operation of the postage meter section during resetting at the post office. A post office switch (36) for use by a postal worker can be closed only when a postal worker unlocks an associated lock. This delivers auxiliary power from the batteries to the meter electronics including the CPU. A routine detects this and causes the CPU to provide an output to a switching transistor that continues to supply the auxiliary power for the brief interval necessary for resetting.

Inventor: MCMURTRY DAVID ROBERTS
IPC: G01Q60/46
Filed: 1991-10-02
Abstract: A capacitance probe 26 is used on a coordinate measuring
machine or machine tool to determine distance between the
probe and a workpiece surface 30. To calibrate it, it is
moved towards and/or away from the surface, and a series of
readings of capacitance against distance moved are taken.
These may then be used to determine calibration values,
e.g. using a "best fit" algorithm with an equation relating
the capacitance to the distance moved. Different
calibration values may be obtained for different points on
the surface, to take account of the different local shape
at each point.

Abstract: Herein disclosed is a motion transforming apparatus, comprising first and
second rotation shafts (51, 52) each formed with crank shaft portions (53-55, 56-58), a
plate assembly (60) constituted by rotation plates (61A, 61B, 61C) each formed with
teeth (62a) and cranked through bores (61e, 61f) respectively having the crank shaft
portions of the rotation shafts (51, 52) received therein, a toothed rail (70) having
teeth (72a), and a plate assembly housing (80) relatively movable along the toothed rail
(70), wherein the first rotation shaft (51) is driven to rotate the rotation plates (61A-61C),
and each of the rotation plates has an untoothed portion (68) connected to the
toothed portion (62) of each rotation plate (61A - 61C) to be spaced from the toothed
portion (72) of the toothed rail (70) and to have the toothed portions of the rotation
plates closer to the second rotation shaft (52) than the first rotation shaft (51). The
toothed portion (62) of each rotation plate is thus deviated from the second rotation
shaft (52) and held in mesh with the toothed rail (70) in the vicinity of the first rotation
shaft (51), thereby reducing a moment which tends to rotate the plate assembly
housing (80) around the first rotation shaft (51) so as to lift up the leading end of the
plate assembly housing (80).

Abstract: It is an object of the invention to solve the problem that

transistor comprises the steps of successively forming a
first active layer (2), a first stopper layer (3), a second
active layer (4), a second stopper layer (5) and a third
active layer (6) on a substrate, forming a wide recess (18)
by etching a predetermined part of the third active layer
(6) till the second stopper layer (5) is exposed, exposing
the second active layer (4) by removing the second stopper
layer (5) exposed at the bottom surface of the wide recess,
and forming a narrow recess (19) having an aperture area
smaller than that of the wide recess by etching a predetermined
part of the exposed second active layer (4) till the
first stopper layer (3) is exposed.
