Abstract: L'invention porte sur un instrument (40) conçu pour s'aligner sur un faisceau (66) lumineux comportant un corps (43) présentant un point d'entrée du faisceau (66) lumineux, un canal conducteur de lumière, et un détecteur (25) monté dans l'instrument (40), distant du point d'entrée du faisceau (66) lumineux et servant à fournir une indication sur l'alignement, bon ou mauvais, entre l'instrument (40) et le faisceau (66) lumineux. Ledit faisceau (66) traverse l'instrument (40) via le canal conducteur entre le point d'entrée du faisceau (66) et le détecteur (25). Un ou plusieurs guides de lumière, placés dans le canal conducteur, améliorent la précision d'alignement entre l'instrument (40) et le faisceau (66). Un guide de lumière comporte une paroi délimitant le canal de guidage et empêchant les faisceau (66)x non alignés s'atteindre le détecteur (25), tout en permettant aux faisceau (66)x alignés de se propager sur une voie déterminée pour atteindre le détecteur (25).

Granted: 2010-07-27
Abstract: An interpretive system architecture for a seamless transfer of energy to a physical, chemical, or thermodynamic process stream, or microwave oven. The interpretive system architecture overlays the operational functions of the process stream or host microwave oven to interpret, control, and implement user independent commands. The interpretive system has at least one interpretive base class for providing operational instance to the process stream or host microwave oven. The interpretive system receives an indicia, the indicia being expressive of an externally derived predetermined compiled code disposed on the surface of a specimen, or food package, or associated thereto, the indicia communicating via at least one data entry mechanism to the process stream or host microwave oven. The interpretive system interprets the data or code and transforms it into user independent commands. The user independent commands enable the process stream or the host microwave oven to function over a wide but controlled range of energy transfer to the specimen.
