Inventor: TRACY JOHN G
IPC: H02J9/06
Filed: 1997-06-18
Abstract: L'invention porte sur un système d'alimentation électrique de secours (10) monté en parallèle et n'utilisant pas de signalisation entre unités, obtenu en tirant toutes les informations des signaux de sortie de chacun des systèmes d'alimentation (10). Chacune des unités (10) surveille sa propre puissance de sortie plutôt que de se comparer à d'autres unités. La fonction de disjonction résulte d'un échantillonnage de la tension de sortie c.a. du système d'alimentation (10), puis d'une multiplication de la différence instantanée de tension (comparée avec le cycle précédent) par la différence instantanée d'intensité (comparée avec le cycle précédent) du système d'alimentation (10). Si les deux transitoires sont de sens opposé, le produit de la multiplication sera négatif, ce qui indique un bon fonctionnement du système (10); si les deux transitoires sont dans le même sens, le produit de la multiplication sera positif, ce qui indique une unité défectueuse. Le système d'alimentation (10) est déconnecté du réseau d'alimentation lorsque le produit de la multiplication est positif et supérieur à une valeur préétablie de disjonction.

Abstract: The contrast determination apparatus includes illuminating light sources (12) and an image sensor (26) i.e. a 2-D CCD for capturing a two-dimensional image of e.g. a marked wire (32) on a holder (34), the captured image being sampled over the mark and the background. The sensor includes an optical system (28,30) selected with regard to the character size of the marks so that the field of view of the sensor is sufficient to contain a complete character as well as a generous amount of background. An area of the captured image is designated in which the samples for contrast measurement are to be taken, and a processor (24) takes the pixel values from the image which are thresholded to categorise them as "black", or "white", thus forming a two-tone image. Aggregates or averages of the "black" and "white" pixel values are used to derive the contrast measurement according to the formula: (Imax-Imin)/Imax where Imax is the average value of the "white" pixels and Imin the average value of the "black" pixels.

Inventor: O'DWYER JAMES MICHAEL
IPC: F41F1/00
Filed: 1997-10-23
Abstract: A projectile firing weapon for firing rounds of the type having a projectile and an associated bore seal which is radially expanded by relative axial displacement between the projectile and the bore seal. The weapon includes a barrel assembly having a barrel bore, a barrel chamber for the round to be fired through the barrel bore, and an associated breech chamber for the next round to be fired. A propellant chamber is formed in the barrel assembly between the barrel chamber and the breech chamber, and a feeder feeds propellant into the propellant chamber. Rounds may be fed axially and sequentially through a loading opening to the barrel assembly and into the breech chamber, thereby forcing the existing round therein into the barrel chamber. Holding means cooperable with the round fed into the breech chamber effect a sealing relationship between the breech chamber and the round therein, causing an operative closure of the barrel chamber. An igniter ignites propellant in the propellant chamber.

Abstract: An improved Pirani gauge has a small-diameter wire sensing element,
coplanar with a small-diameter wire compensating element, with two
parallel flat thermally conductive plates spaced from the sensing and
compensating elements. The sensing (12) and compensating elements (14)
and their connections have the same physical dimensions, thermal
properties and resistance properties. The connections have large thermal
conductances to a uniform temperature region and the elements are
located in the same vacuum environment. A DC heating current (32) is
used and confined to only the sensing elements (12). A relatively small
AC signal (32,40) is used to sense bridge balance. A simplified
three-dimensional pressure compensation formula (5) provides accurate
compensation while simplifying the collection of calibration data. The
improved gauge provides significant advancements in Pirani gauge
accuracy, production cost, and package size.

Abstract: An apparatus and method is disclosed for sensing material
build-up, such as the undesirable build-up of cotton in a
mechanized cotton harvester. A tube (41) is mounted for eccentric
rotation adjacent an area where build-up occurs, such as near

and is eccentrically rotated against the spring by forces
applied to the tube by accumulating material, such as cotton.
A switch (44) is mounted within the tube, and, as the tube
rotates, the state of the switch changes in accordance with
the rotation. A signal generated by the switch is used to
alert an operator.

Abstract: A current mirror suitable, for example, for a charge pump circuit
comprises a reference device (21), an output device (22), a first amplifier (41), a
follower amplifier (42), and switches (31, 32, 43, 44). When switches 31 and 43 are
closed, the current mirror is enabled and the low output impedance of follower (42)
ensures that the gate voltage of output device (22) quickly equals the gate voltage of
reference device (21), switching on the output quickly and accurately. When output
device (22) is off, switch (44) closes, and the output of the first amplifier (41) bypasses
the follower (42) so that the first amplifier (41) and the reference device (21) form a
loop, and compensation becomes easier. The amplifiers (41, 42) are separately
compensated to make them stable.
