Patent EP-0246411-B1 (EP)
IPC: B65G47/91
Filed: 1987-03-14
Granted: 1989-10-11
Abstract: A transfer conveyor for transporting an object from an intake location to an output location according to the invention has a frame adjacent the locations, a planet carrier rotatable on the frame about a carrier axis, a wheel rotatable on the frame adjacent the carrier about the carrier axis, and at least one planet gear carried on the carrier and rotatable thereon about a planet axis parallel to but offset from the carrier axis. A ring gear meshing with the planet gear is centered on but not rotatable relative to the carrier axis. The gears have respective pitch circles and the circumference of the ring-gear pitch circle is a whole-number multiple of the circumference of the planet-gear pitch circle. A support carried on the wheel is coupled to the planet gear offset from the planet axis so that the support orbits about the planet axis as the planet gear rotates. A suction gripper mounted on the support moves jointly therewith at least radial of the carrier axis. A drive rotates the planet carrier about its axis and thereby displaces the suction gripper past the locations in a hypocycloid having cusps at the locations.

Granted: 1994-06-22
Abstract: The invention relates to a charge-coupled image sensor arrangement, in which in the case of overexposure the excess of generated electrons is drained in vertical direction to the substrate. In order to adjust the maximum acceptable extent of overexposure, means are provided, with the aid of which an additional low voltage can be applied to the blocking gates. As a result, it is possible to adjust the maximum overexposure without the maximum white level being variable. Due to the fact that the said blocking voltage is a d.c. voltage, the dissipation substantially does not increase.

Filed: 1988-10-28
Granted: 1993-03-03
Abstract: A method and apparatus for automated speech recognition wherein an unknown speech input is divided into words on merit, the words are divided into fixed length leading portions and consequentially variable length remaining portions, both portions being further subdivided into fixed length plural frames, each frame being matched against a fixed set of features, determined to correspond to one of the same and tagged with a label representing that feature, the fixed length label string generated from the leading portion of a word being used to aggregate a probability value for the string by accessing individual probability values of occurrence from a leading portion table of labels against first portions of known words and the remaining portion label string being correspondingly processed against a separate remaining portion table, the two sets of aggregate values being compounded by word portion pairs and the words corresponding to the highest compounded values being selected as candidate words for further processing to produce a result, whereby execution of the first portion processing of a word can be undertaken while the remaining portion of the word is being received and the selection of candidates includes a measure of the time of occurrence of a determined feature in a word. The tables are established in a learning phase in which known words are input, divided, framed, featurised and labelled, the probability values for the labelled features being derived by accumulating time dependent weighting factors for given labels in given word, normalising the totals and smoothing the two sets of results.

Abstract: A soil auger particularly useful for removing a quantity of soil as a plug is provided, and is particularly adapted for use with a portable electric drill. The auger body is substantially cylindrical with at least one open end and provides a balanced unit for use at high rotational speeds. A series of teeth at the lower margin of the auger are alternately inwardly and outwardly displaced from the plane of the cylinder. The teeth may extend completely around the lower margin or only a portion thereof. Offset apertures in the walls of the cylinder permit removal of the soil contained therein. A shaft is mounted at the end of the auger opposite the teeth and adapted to be coupled to a hand held electric drill. In operation, the soil auger enters the ground driven by the drill which rotates the auger. The teeth of the auger create a circular hole in the ground around a plug of soil, the plug of soil entering the interior of the auger body for subsequent removal.

Abstract: Centrifugal pump for pumping molten masses, especially molten explosives. Molten explosives having a high content of infusible solid explosive are gravimetrically pumped due to the associated dangers. This makes high buildings and protective surrounding walls necessary, with the disadvantage of considerable effort and high costs as well as relatively poor accessibility to the installations. The object of the invention is to avoid these disadvantages and to permit the pumping of molten explosives to be carried out on just a few levels, if not just a single level, in easily accessible and uncomplicated installations. The vertically arranged pump shaft of a centrifugal pump bears at its lower end an unchokeable impeller with upwardly open blades, with which the pump housing forms an annular gap and, at the end, a free space which is connected by means of bores directed obliquely outwards from bottom to top to the pumping space located above the impeller and fed with pumping medium from above. Pumping of molten masses, in particular having a high solids content, and in particular molten explosives having a high content of infusible high-energy solid explosive.
