Title: Hydraulically controlled picker
Inventor: ERHARD KENK
IPC: D03D49/38
Filed: 1969-10-03
Abstract: The hydraulically controlled picker includes a fluid filled chamber bounded by an elastic cup, on the back of which is an air chamber with controlled pressure. The ram of the picker displaces the fluid and thus deforms the cup, which, in turn, compresses the air. This results in a damping effect, and provides the return force for the picker.

Title: Method for determining governor gains for a fuel control system
Inventor: SCHMIDT LARRY E
IPC: F02D31/00
Filed: 1998-10-01
Abstract: The present invention is adapted to provide a method for dynamically determining optimal governor dynamics, i.e., gains, for a fuel control system supplying fuel to an engine (110). The method determines a mode of the engine (110), then determines the governor gain in response to the engine mode. The mode or condition of the engine (110) includes a transmission mode, a throttle mode, and a cruise control mode. The governor gains are determined by determining the current engine mode, selecting the appropriate gain look-up table in response to the engine mode, and responsively selecting a gain value from the look-up table in response to at least one of the desired and actual speed. The gain maps are determined using empirical data and classical control system design methods, and storing the results in gain maps, or tables. The governor gain values are used in a forward and a feedback path PID control algorithm. The forward path PID control algorithm determines a fuel command in response to at least one of the desired engine speed, and modified actual engine speed, and the governor gain values. The feedback path PID control algorithm determines a modified actual speed in response to at least one of the desired and actual speeds, and the appropriate governor gain values.
