Title: Generation of needle motion profile in an individual section glassware forming system
Inventor: NAFZIGER GREGORY W
IPC: G05B19/4093
Filed: 1998-04-21
Abstract: In an individual section glassware forming system that includes a plurality of operating mechanisms for performing cyclic motions, an electronic controller for controlling cyclic motion at a needle mechanism includes electronic memory for storing a plurality of motion profiles for the needle mechanism, with each of the profiles comprising a set of needle position data versus time data. Any one of the profiles so stored may be selectively displayed as a graph of position versus time. A plurality of control points, consisting of less than all data points, are highlighted on the graphic display at spaced positions along the graph. An operator may identify one of the control points and change the position data and/or time data associated with that control point.  An electronic control computer is responsive to such control point change for automatically recomputing the position data and time data for the profile so as to accommodate the operator-selected changes at the control point.   The recomputed position and time data is graphically displayed, including the plurality of control points at spaced positions along the recomputed graph.   Most preferably, the recomputed graphic data is superimposed on the graph of the initial position versus time data so that the operator can observe the effects of changes in graphic position of the control data points.

Patent CA-2241777-A1 (CA)
Inventor: OHWAKI KENJI
IPC: B01F13/08
Filed: 1998-06-26
Abstract: To improve the affinity between a gas and a liquid, the liquid is passed through an enclosure where it contacts a portion of the magnets of a magnetic field generating device and passes through the magnetic field created by the magnets while a gas is in contact with the other portion of the magnets. A liquid level control device maintains and controls the liquid level so that the magnets simultaneously extend about equally into the gas and liquid with both contacting the magnets and being within the magnetic field created by the magnets. The gas in the enclosure increases the effectiveness that the magnetic field and magnets have on the liquid. The gas used in the enclosure can optionally subsequently be mixed with the liquid or another gas can be mixed with the liquid. Additional gases and liquids can be mixed together. The device and process associated with it can be used on different liquids and different gasses, including fuel mixed with air in a combustion process.

Patent CA-2246114-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KOROL GRIGORI
IPC: D05B73/12
Filed: 1998-08-28
Abstract: In a sewing machine for tacking the band ends of a waistband, a clamping device and method of operation is provided. A unitary bottom carrier plate is releasably secured to the base of the sewing machine. The plate is machined to position both ends of the waistband below a needle for the tacking operation. A clamping foot, having openings that expose the edges of the band ends, clamps the band ends between the plate and the foot. The sewing machine can then be programmed such that a single needle bartacks each of the band ends in sequence. The thread is cut as the needle moves from one band end to the other. The clamping device permits a single machine operation to finish both band ends without repositioning the workpiece. This speeds up the time consuming tacking process. The superior holding capabilities of the machine also reducing carpal tunnel injuries and related workplace stresses for workers.  The one piece carrier plate extends the life of the earner plate, reduces shifting or mispositioning of the carrier plate to decrease the amount of waste product, down time and needle damage, and decreases the time required for maintenance operation. To further increase the speed of maintenance, an easy release bolting device is provided to secure the carrier plate to the sewing machine. The bolt has a stem with an internally threaded end. This end extends above the base of the sewing machine such that the carrier plate can be attached to it. A washer, and screw can then be used to secure the plate to the base.

Title: Diagnostic input for programmable logic controller
Inventor: CLARK KAREN R
IPC: G05B19/048
Filed: 1997-09-16
Abstract: An input device for a Programmable Logic Controller is taught. Briefly stated, an incoming input voltage is rectified with an input impedance being principally capacitive in order to avoid heat dissipation.  This rectified power in turn cooperates with a current source such that once a set point is reached the current source current does not increase with increasing input voltage. The current source is also utilized to prevent off-state leakage current from turning on an input optocoupler by allowing most of the input current to be drawn through the current source until a turn-on threshold which is set by a zener diode is met.
