Title: A method for producing high-carbon steel rails excellent in wear resistance and ductility
Inventor: YAMAMOTO TAKESHI
IPC: C22C38/00
Filed: 2005-03-09
Abstract: Disclosed are methods of producing steel rails having a high carbon content and being excellent in wear resistance and ductility from the slabs for rails. One method involves producing a steel rail having a high content of carbon, comprising finish rolling the rail in two consecutive passes, with a reduction rate per pass of a cross-section of the rail of 2-30%, wherein the conditions of the finish rolling satisfy the following relationship: S ¦ 800 / (C × T), wherein S is the maximum rolling interval time (seconds), C is the carbon content of the steel, wherein the carbon content is 0.85-1.40 mass%, and T is the maximum surface temperature (°C) of the rail head. Another method involves producing a steel rail with a high content of carbon, comprising: finish rolling the rail in three or more passes, with a reduction rate per pass of a cross-section of the rail of 2-30%, wherein the conditions of the finish rolling satisfy the following relationship: S ¦ 2400 / (C × T × P), wherein S is the maximum rolling interval time (seconds), C is the carbon content of the steel rail, wherein the carbon content is 0.85¼1.40 mass%, T is the maximum surface temperature (°C) of a rail head, and P is the number of passes, which is 3 or more. In addition to above, controlled additional amounts of V, Nb, N may be added to the steel rail and/or controlled rapid cooling of the rail after rolling may be accomplished to provide further improvements.
Patent CA-2559049-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STRZELCZYK MARTIN J
IPC: G06K7/00
Filed: 2005-03-16
Abstract: A multi-resolution object location system and method for locating objects is provided. The multi-resolution system and method uses a long-range object locator together with a more precise RFID locator to efficiently and accurately determine the location of objects that include an RFID tag. The long-range object locator has a relatively longer range and can cover a relatively large area to determine the general location of the object within the large area. The RFID locator has a relatively shorter range, but is able to locate the object more precisely. The object location system uses the long-range locator to first determine the general location of the object, and then the RFID locator is used to determine a more accurate location of the object. Thus, the multi-resolution object location system is able to provide both a long range location of objects over a large area and a precise location of objects.

IPC: G01S17/86
Filed: 2005-11-04
Abstract: According to the invention, a separation from at least one and an image of at least three reflective regions on the orientation indicator are recorded by a separation measurement sensor and an image sensor in a measuring device (1), for the purpose of determining the orientation of an orientation indicator.  The separation measurement and image recording are achieved by means of a directed emission of a collimated first beam (2) and a divergent second beam (3) with differing wavelengths and/or polarisation in the direction of the orientation indicator and a simultaneous recording of the reflected and/or scattered first and second beams (2',3'). The reflective regions on the orientation indicator are embodied and arranged such as to be positioned at a target point with a detectable geometric relationship to each other and to be simultaneously resolved by the image recorder. By means of the orientation determination, amongst other things, separations from target points, even not directly visible, can be precisely determined.
