Inventor: BA DOUR JAMES D
IPC: B65H18/16
Filed: 2000-06-20
Abstract: A web-winding apparatus includes a winding
roll for contacting a web, a camshaft which is
axially mounted in the winding roll, and push rods
which engage the camshaft and which are radially
movable by the camshaft to latch and unlatch web-engaging
devices on the winding roll. The web-engaging
devices can include transfer pins, cutoff
blades, and transfer pads. The camshaft is normally
rotated at the same speed as the winding roll by a
servo motor, and the camshaft is rotated relative to
the push rods when the servo motor changes the speed
of the camshaft relative to the winding roll.

Abstract: An electrochemical engine in a vehicle comprises a fuel cell
stack operable to produce electricity given hydrogen and oxygen, an air
generator to supply oxygen to the fuel cell stack, and a first storage tank
containing hydrogen-retention material which upon heating to a release
temperature releases stored hydrogen to the fuel cell stack. The

Abstract: Several stations (2,4,6) are connected to a bus system (1). Each station (2,4,6) includes a counter in a memory which is decremented for won access competitions. Each station determines if its counter has a positive value, so that the respective station will still take part in the access competition. The stations reset the counter to its initial value if no stations are transmitting data any longer. Each station performs error detection on the transmitted and received data. Each station checks control information for transmission errors. Each station is capable of synchronising to a frame clock. An Independent claim is included for a method of switching data.

Abstract: An process and method for monitoring and limiting high voltage conditions in
a transport refrigeration unit is disclosed. The system provides a microprocessor
control which monitors the load, generator temperature and engine speed and
compares it to an algorithm or map programmed into a controller for the unit. The
map or algorithm preferably predicts voltage based upon load (amperage), generator
temperature and engine speed. If the result of the monitored features predicts a voltage
above preselected acceptable levels which are programmed into the controller, then
the controller will drop the engine into low speed.

IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 2000-05-15
Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for scheduling multicast data in an
input-queued network device. According to one aspect of the present invention,
deterministic and bounded delay for high priority multicast cells is guaranteed by
the multicast scheduler. The scheduler receives a transmit request associated with
each of a plurality of input ports. The transmit request identifies output ports to
which pending multicast cells are ready to be transmitted, if any. Then, for each of
multiple classes of service, the scheduler performs a single scheduling iteration.
The single scheduling iteration includes a grant phase, an accept phase, and an
update phase. During the grant phase, the scheduler grants one or more of the
input ports access to the fabric by issuing grants based upon the transmit requests
and a priority indicator that identifies an input port that is given scheduling priority
for the scheduling iteration. During the accept phase, on behalf of each of the
input ports, the scheduler accepts all grants corresponding to the input port.
Finally, during the update phase, the scheduler updates the priority indicator for
use in a subsequent scheduling cycle.

Abstract: A line orientation determining unit (1) determines
whether the line orientation of an input document image
is vertical or horizontal. A character image
extracting unit (2) extracts a character image from the
input document image, and a character orientation
detecting unit (3) detects whether a rotation is
required, if so finds the rotational angle, and detects
whether a mirror image flipping is needed, according to
the determination made by the line orientation
determining unit. A document image correcting unit (4)
corrects the input document image to the proper
orientation based on the result of the detection made
by the character orientation detecting unit (3). This
allows correction of a scanned image of a document such
as an English document, the text of which is
horizontally written in normal cases, scanned in any of
upward, downward, right, and left directions, for
example, with the use of a hand-held scanner.

IPC: B24B47/12
Filed: 2000-08-11
Abstract: An apparatus (10) is provided that allows a
working element to undergo either rotary or
reciprocating motion via a transmission system (12) that
is very compact in terms of the amount of space it
requires to convert the rotary output of the motor (24)
into either rotary or reciprocating output of an output
shaft (25) operably connected to the working element.
The apparatus (10) has a barrel cam transmission
including input (26) and output (28) members between
which a clutch (30) and cam mechanism (22) are disposed
for providing a rotary/reciprocating transmission system
(12) with a compact design. The transmission (12), and
in particular the clutch (30) and cam mechanism (22)
thereof, has a sturdy construction to allow it to
withstand shock forces such as axial loading that may be
placed on the working element and transmitted to the
transmission system (12) during tool operations without
disruption of the same. Further, a collet assembly (14)
is provided that securely holds tool bit shafts (16)
therein while allowing them to be readily and easily
interchanged. The collet assembly (14) herein has a
very few number of parts and is easily assembled without
the need for any special tools or machines thereof. In
a preferred form, the collet assembly (14) provides for
release of the tool shaft (16) by a forward sliding
action of a collet sleeve (174). In this manner,
rearward forces acting on the sleeve (174) in an axial
direction such as can occur during tool operations will
not cause the tool shaft (16) to be accidentally
released. Another advantage is the use of a retaining
member for releasably holding the shaft (16). The
retaining member (176) avoids the use of detent balls as
in prior collets which can require ramp surfaces formed
to very precise tolerances to engage and shift the balls
into and out of a holding position on the shaft (16).
