Inventor: STOCKER MARK ANDREW
IPC: B24B41/06
Filed: 1997-06-11
Abstract: A grinding or polishing machine comprises a rigid platform on
which a workhead spindle and a grinding wheel spindle are
located. The grinding wheel spindle is mounted on a sub-assembly
which is attached to the platform by means of flexures
which permit limited movement of the sub-assembly in a
direction generally parallel to the direction in which the
wheel has to advance to achieve grinding or polishing of a
workpiece mounted on the workhead spindle. The flexures
generally inhibit movement of the sub-assembly in all other
directions. Two grinding wheels are mounted on the platform,
one on each of two sub-assemblies, and each sub-assembly is
attached to the platform by flexures as aforesaid. The flexure
mounting points are located generally centrally of the machine
and are located on either side of and close to the machine
centre line. In a grinding or polishing machine having
workpiece spindle means, tool spindle means mounted on sub-assemblies
which permit limited relative movement in one
direction to effect tool and workpiece engagement cam drive
means is provided whereby each sub-assembly is movable to
advance or retract each tool spindle towards and away from the
workhead spindle.

Abstract: The procedure entails recording first values of the vehicle's movement, determining the ideal state of the vehicle's movement corresponding to the desired behaviour of the vehicle, and comparing one value with the other. A release algorithm based on deviations between the first state and ideal state is applied to at least one part of the recorded first value for producing situation conforming release signals for the activating of at least one of the restraining devices(7).  An Independent claim is included for a system for release control of occupant restraining devices which has means(2) for determining the ideal state of the vehicle's movement corresponding to the desired behaviour of the vehicle, whereby the restraining device control unit(1) takes into account the ideal state of movement in addition to the first value when generating the release signals.

Abstract: The present invention provides an uplink frame
structure in a satellite communication system, and a method
for providing control access to a plurality of user
terminals transmitting the inventively structured uplink
frames. The uplink frame structure comprises a superframe
(200) which includes a predetermined number of individual
frames (250). Each individual frame comprises a traffic
burst field (202-220) and a control burst field (221-239),
where the control burst fields (221-239) may be located at
the same position within each frame (250). Each control
burst field (221-239) further comprises several individual
control time slots (302). The individual control time slots
(302) may include, for example, timing probes and orderwire
information. The present method includes establishing a
superframe comprising a predetermine number of individual
frames (402), determining a total number of individual
control time slots (404), and establishing a control burst
field in each of the individual frames (406). The method
further includes distributing the control time slots among 
the individual frames by subdividing each control burst
field into several individual control time slots (408), and
allocating the individual control time slots to individual
user terminals (410). The method may, for example,
subdivide each control burst field into an equal number of
individual control time slots. The method may further
include the step of transmitting a timing probe and/or
orderwire information in at least one of the individual
control time slots.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method, device,
and system for waveform shaping of signal light. The
device for waveform shaping of signal light according to
the present invention includes a distributed feedback
(DFB) laser having a stop band defined as the range of
wavelengths allowing laser oscillation, and a drive
circuit for supplying a drive current to the DFB laser so
that the DFB laser oscillates at a first wavelength
included in the stop band. Signal light having a second
wavelength not included in the stop band is input into
the DFB laser. In the case that the signal light is
provided by optical pulses each having a high level and a
low level, amplitude fluctuations at the high level of
the signal light can be effectively suppressed by
suitably setting the power of the signal light.

Abstract: Disclosed is a diaphragm-based spring brake actuator
assembly (20) which allows for the delivery of more force to the push
rod (21) without increasing the size of the actuator unit. The
invention allows for the use of a stronger heavy main
compression spring (58) in the emergency brake chamber to provide
greater emergency or parking brake force to the push rod. The
invention also allows the service brake chamber (33) to operate more
efficiently when braking pressure is introduced. These
functions are accomplished through modifications in the design
of the actuators which allow for the deployment of a larger
pressure plate (29,59) inside either the emergency housing (50) or the
service brake housing (30), or both, allowing delivery of more force
to the push rod of the actuator; and are made possible in
actuator units having the same dimensional profile as existing
weaker units.
