Title: Battery system and intermittent motion apparatus using same
Inventor: FUJII TAKASHI
IPC: H01G11/00
Filed: 1995-08-02
Granted: 1998-02-05
Abstract: A battery system for supplying electric energy from a primary battery or a secondary battery to a load (L). This system includes a battery consisting of the primary battery or the secondary battery, an electric double layer capacitor (3) for storing electric energy from the battery, a limiting resistor (2) for limiting the electric energy supplied from the battery to the electric double layer capacitor (3), and a discharge controller (4) for controlling the electric double layer capacitor. The discharge controller (4) causes the electric double layer capacitor (3) to discharge the electric energy to the load intermittently in predetermined cycles while charging the electric double layer capacitor (3). A discharging time for discharging the electric energy from the electric double layer capacitor (3) to the load is shorter than a charging time for charging the electric double layer capacitor (3) with electric energy. At this time, a discharge current is greater than a charge current. <IMAGE>

Title: Method and apparatus for tire inspection
Inventor: CUSHMAN CHARLES RICHARD
IPC: G01M17/02
Filed: 1989-09-13
Granted: 1992-02-06
Abstract: An apparatus for inspecting a tire for structural defects as the tire is rotated on a stand comprises a movable transducer transmitter for directing a plurality of successive collimated bursts of ultrasonic energy against the tire surface, said bursts passing through the tire and forming inspection areas having the same diameter and overlapping each other as the tire is rotated during an inspection cycle. A movable receiver transducer located on the other side of the tire from the transmitter is constantly positioned to receive the collimated ultrasonic energy that passes through each inspection area. Coordination control elements are provided for moving the transmitter transducer and the receiver transducer from one side of the tire to the other generally parallel to its axis of rotation while successive ultrasonic bursts are directed through the tire as it rotates during each inspection test and while maintaining substantially the same distance between the transducers for each burst. The strength of the energy received by the receiver transducer is evaluated for each burst when the evaluation indicates that a defect is present, a visual indicator is triggered to identify the location of the structural defect in the tire being inspected.

Title: Method and apparatus for providing redundant radio coverage within a cellular communication system
Inventor: GILMORE ROBERT P
IPC: H04B7/216
Filed: 1995-11-28
Granted: 1998-12-24
Abstract: A system and method for using a sectored antenna arrangement within a cellular base station to provide redundant coverage within the surrounding cell is disclosed herein. An antenna feed network connects elements of the sectored antenna arrangement to a set of communication transceivers, wherein the feed network includes a combiner array for combining selected ones of the antenna beams upon failure of one of the communication transceivers. A switch network serves to provide the resultant combined beam to an operative one of the communication transceivers. Alternately, the sectored antenna arrangement includes an antenna array having a plurality of switchable antenna elements, each connected to one of the communication transceivers. The switchable antenna elements project a set of variable-width antenna beams over the plurality of cell sectors. Upon one of the communication transceivers becoming inoperative, an antenna control network operates to adjust beam width of a selected one of the variable-width antenna beams by switching configuration of an associated one of the switchable antenna elements. In another approach each antenna within a primary array is disposed to project a beam over a single sector, while each element within a redundant array is designed to encompass a pair of adjacent sectors. Upon one of the transceivers becoming inoperative, a transceiver nominally assigned to cover a sector neighboring the failed sector is connected to the element within the redundant array encompassing both the failed and neighboring sectors.

IPC: B31B50/22
Filed: 1994-03-18
Granted: 1994-09-08
Abstract: Box blank-forming apparatus (60) is provided which includes a feeder assembly (62) and a scoring/slotting assembly (64) each provided with adjustment structure (62a, 64a) to facilitate makeready adjustment of the apparatus (60) between production runs. The feeder assembly (62) preferably includes a reciprocal pusher element (170) operable to successively engage sheets (30) to be formed into box blanks (36). The element (170) is supported by a pair of elongated, threaded, axially rotatable, fore and aft translatable positioning screws (146, 148), so that upon rotation of the screws (146, 148), a reference position of the pusher element (170) may be varied. Adjustment of the assembly (64) is accomplished by means of compensators (292, 294) which are respectively coupled to associated slotter wheel and scoring wheel shafts (288, 286). Operation of the slotter wheel shaft compensator (294) serves to adjust the circumferential positions of the fixed slotter knives (358), whereas operation of the scoring shaft compensator (292) varies the position of the adjustable knives (360) through the medium of transfer gears (384). Servo-sensors (438-442, 446-448 and 270) are used to continuously monitor the lateral and circumferential positions of the scoring/slotting stations (296-304) and a reference position of the pusher element (172), so that precise makeready adjustments can be accomplished. <IMAGE>
