Patent CA-2385037-A1 (CA)
Title: Dispositif hyperfrequence commutable
Inventor: SHOU SHU-ANG
IPC: H01P1/10
Filed: 2000-09-18
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif hyperfréquence plan tel qu'une ligne de transmission, qui comprend une couche électro-conductrice modelée située sur une couche diélectrique (1) d'épaisseur uniforme. Une ligne à microruban central (9) est confinée dans des rubans latéraux (11) situés de chaque côté du ruban central et ces rubans sont connectés au ruban central par des parties pont (15) de façon à former des fenêtres(13). Chaque ruban latéral présente une zone d'interruption (17) située entre les parties pont. Ces zones d'interruption peuvent toutes être commutée d'un état conducteur d'électricité à un état non conducteur d'électricité ou à un état de haute résistance. Le changement d'état aura un effet sur l'impédance caractéristique de la ligne de transmission de façon à la faire fonctionner par exemple comme un transistor, comme un filtre commutable ou encore comme une bobine d'induction. Le matériau électroconducteur peut être un supraconducteur et les zones d'interruption contiennent alors des jonctions de Josephson ou des liaisons fusibles supraconductrices. Le matériau électroconducteur peut, en outre, être plutôt un conducteur normal et les zones d'interruption peuvent alors comprendre un matériau photo-conducteur.

Filed: 2000-10-02
Abstract: A crossbelt sortation system is provided which includes a pair of side-by-side carrier belts on each of a plurality of transport units movable along a conveying path. The carrier belts may be operable independently or in a synchronized manner, in order to receive packages from one or more induction stations and either discharge the packages at an appropriate discharge station or transfer the package onto the carrier belt at the other side of the transport unit. A control system is operable to determine the destination side of the packages at the induction station and to further determine the availability and appropriateness of the carrier belts of the approaching transport units, in order to determine if an available carrier belt is proper or compatible to receive the next package at the induction station. The present invention thus effectively provides presortation of the packages as they are inducted onto the transport units, such that optimal throughput rates are achieved without the complex presortation processes implemented with the prior art systems. Additionally, the carrier belts of one or two adjacent transport units may be synchronously operated to receive larger packages across the side-by-side carrier belts of a single unit or to receive oversized packages or products at the carrier belts of a pair of adjacent transport units. The carrier belts may be synchronously operated to receive a package and pivot the package as it is inducted onto the transport units, in order to properly orient the package on the transport unit or units. The packages or products may then be discharged at an appropriate discharge chute in a similar manner.

Abstract: A gap welding process (10) for manipulating a movable robotic welder (30) for making a weld between two or more substantially immovable work pieces (51) using a higher level programming language (20). The gap welding process (10) performs a data transfer routine which takes spreadsheet data (18) representing expected variables, runs a data conversion program (20) that creates weld program data including point position, user frames (34 and 36), weld schedule, seam tracking schedule, weave schedule, azimuth orientation, travel speed, wait time, weave type and number of digital output control data.  The gap welding process (10) also performs a gap-sensing routine (28) for actual weld gap measuring by using the robotic welder (30) to touch specific locations on pieces forming the gap or fixturing to produce weld variance data. The gap welding process (10) then uses a weld control program in conjunction with the weld program data (22), weld variance data (26), and feedback data (44) that is gathered during the welding process to determine and perform the correct manipulation required to produce torch movements to accurately weld the gap (32).

Abstract: An improved golf driver club head wherein each driver club head has a tensioning device which places the peripheral/outer structure of the club he ad in compression thereby resulting in a stronger more rigid club head structur e. This is accomplished by affixing the tensioning device to the crown (top) surface of the club head and to the sole (bottom) surface of the metal head.  The device is affixed to the two surfaces of the club head and is pre- tensioned. The tensioning may be accomplished by compressing the two club he ad surfaces together then affixing the device to the opposed surfaces so that t he surfaces are held in state of relative compression. Another way this can be accomplished is to affix the device to the two club head surfaces either through a hole or boss and to adjust the device by threading, gluing or othe r form of fastening. In the preferred embodiment the tensioning device compris es an elongated cylindrical member having respective end members. The top and bottom surfaces of the golf club head are each provided with a cylindrical depression or recess and an aperture or passage at the lower end of the depression. The passages are just large enough to accommodate the tensioning  device, but are too small to pass the respective end members. During club he ad manufacture, the length of the device is selected to apply a compressive for ce between the head surfaces. Fine adjustment is accommodated by a threaded end  member. The actual compression force may be selected to yield the best performance depending on the geometry, structure and material of the club he ad.

Abstract: In a packet repeater of a wireless base station, a packet analyzer receives uplink packets from mobile terminals and stores data indicating quality of each wireless link between the base station and each mobile terminal in a memory. A packet sorter receives downlink packets from a network and stores the received packets into buffers according to the destinations of downlink packets and their service classes. According to the data stored in the memory, packets in the buffers are formed into a first group of queues in which quality of service is not satisfied and a second group of queues in which quality of service is satisfied. A packet scheduler sequentially transmits all packets from the first-group queues to mobile terminals, and reorders the second-group queues in a descending order of the qualities of wireless links and sequentially transmits all packets from the reordered queues to the mobile terminals.
