Title: Arbor apparatus for rotary tools
Inventor: WENDZINA DARREN L
IPC: B23B51/04
Filed: 2004-10-21
Abstract: An arbor apparatus for mounting an attachment to a rotary tool includes a mandrel with a drive stage insertable into a passage in a drive boss such that rotation of the mandrel rotates the boss. The boss has a polygonal drive head engageable with the drive opening of the attachment. One end of the mandrel has a locking plate that approaches the drive head when the mandrel is inserted into the boss. The locking plate is sized to pass through the drive opening while also partially extending radially beyond the edge of the drive head. With the mandrel inserted through the boss, the locking plate is passed through the drive opening of the attachment. With a gap being maintained between the locking plate and the drive head, the mandrel is manually rotated to allow the drive head to enter the drive opening, simultaneously causing portions of the locking plate to extend beyond the edges of the drive opening. A locking nut is then tightened onto a threaded shaft axially adjoining the drive stage, thereby clamping the attachment between the locking plate and the drive boss. A chuck stage axially adjoining the threaded shaft can then be used to mount the apparatus to a rotary tool in well known fashion.

Abstract: A frequency tracking loop for a communication system using orthogonal Walsh modulation is provided. The frequency tracking loop includes a correlator (120) such as a fast Hadamard transformation device, and a discriminator (130). The correlator (120) produces correlation vector (122) representing the result of correlating the input signal with each of a set of Walsh functions, with corresponding index values. The discriminator (130) produces a frequency error signal (ê) based on the correlator (120) output with the highest energy level and other correlator outputs whose indices are related to the index of highest energy correlator output by powers of two.      The frequency error signal (ê) is generated by producing a cross product between the highest energy output and one or more of the other related correlator outputs. In further aspects, a filter (140) can be used to further shape the resulting error signal (ê) and form a frequency offset estimate signal (~).
