Abstract: An improved device and method for measuring the amount of liquid to be discharged that is present in an apparatus, such as a nebulizer. A first member has holes through which the liquid passes to be nebulized. A second member is spaced from the first member so that a volume is defined in the nebulizer by the area of mutual overlap of the first and second members and the amount of spacing between them. The first and second members are formed to establish a mutual capacitance that reflects the amount of liquid in the volume. A measuring circuit measures the capacitance existing between the first and second members and hence the amount of liquid in the nebulizer. The capacitance measurement can be used to control the supply of liquid into the volume in the nebulizer.

Abstract: A method and circuitry for implementing a built-in self test (BIST) for determining the frequency characteristics of filter circuits in mixed-signal integrated circuits (ICs). The method comprises inserting a Circuit Under Test (CUT) into a feedback loop that looks like a sigma delta modulation loop and adjust the feedback loop so that it oscillates at the cut-off frequency of the filter. The frequency of oscillation can then easily be measured using either on on-chip counter or digital automated testing equipment. The feedback loop preferably comprises a comparator, a phase-delay component, such as a delay-line, and a one-bit DAC (digital-to-analog converter), wherein the comparator is connected to the output of the CUT, and the output of the one-bit DAC is connected to the input of the CUT. The phase delay of the feedback loop can be tuned through adjustment of the delay-line (e.g., an n-length shift register) until an oscillation frequency is obtained. In the case of low-pass filters circuits, the tuned frequency of oscillation corresponds to the cut-off frequency of the CUT.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for generating a measuring program for a co-ordinate measuring device, especially a multisensor co-ordinate measuring device.  A scheduled data set, such as a CAD data set, is inputted into an object to be measured in a data processing device.  In order to automate the verification process for the object to be measured, the scheduled data set is automatically processed as a check plan so as to generate the measuring program whereby predefined measures and/or geometric properties are automatically processed according to predefined rules stored in the data processing device, and the measuring program thus generated is used to measure the object or a corresponding object by means of the coordinate measuring device.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for charging a rechargeable battery in which a constant current is first applied until the rated voltage of the battery is reached, followed by a period during which a reduced current is applied to the battery. The reduced current results in lowering the amount of unwanted heat being dissipated in the charge-current transistor connected to the battery. Finally, a constant voltage is applied to the battery to finish the charging cycle. Reducing the heat dissipation enables the use of smaller less expensive charge-current switch transistors, which for example, are advantageous in applications such as mobile communication devices or other portable electronics assemblies.

Abstract: A closing element, which has an open position and a closed position and is actuated by an actuating element, is arranged in the nozzle channel of a nozzle body. In the closing position, the closing element separates a region that is at least temporarily in open communication with the injection mold, the region being able to be influenced by a second actuating element associated with the nozzle body. Due to the fact that the pressure element is arranged in the nozzle body and can be actuated independently from the nozzle body and the plastifying cylinder, a nozzle body is created and a method is provided that enable the dosing process and dwell pressure process to be separated with a compact structure.

Abstract: A clamping device includes an expansible polymer that is disposed in a polymer chamber (14). A heat transfer conduit (22) transports heat transfer fluid and brings it into thermal conductivity with the polymer. By cooling or heating the polymer as needed, the polymer expands and contracts as it melts and freezes, respectively. The volume change of the polymer is used to advance a piston (16). The piston is used to engage upon a surface, e.g., clamp a machine part. In this manner, the surface is disposed between the actuated piston (16) and an immobile plate, causing the surface to become rigidly held in position. When the piston (16) contacts the surface, pressure builds in the polymer chamber(14), which translates into clamping force on the surface.

Abstract: A method and apparatus to provide evidence that a person who is intended to make a required inspection was actually physically present at a predefined location associated with the inspection, so that the inspection could have been done, and if not, to provide an indication of the failure to perform the inspection. This invention is particularly well suited to determine if required pre/post-trip inspections of vehicles have been performed. Detecting a triggering condition, such as powering on (or off) equipment, indicates the beginning of a period of time during which the inspection is to be performed. The monitoring system waits for a predetermined event to occur, which indicates the period of time has expired and determines if data corresponding to the inspection have been received. If not, it is concluded that the inspection has not been performed.
