Patent EP-0256054-A1 (EP)
Title: Apparatus for simulated shooting.
Inventor: HANCOX ROGER JOHN
IPC: F41A33/02
Filed: 1987-01-13
Abstract: Apparatus for the simulated shooting of small arms comprises a miniaturized electrical energy source for a radiation emitter which is capable of being accommodated within a dummy cartridge or within the gun barrel. The source can be a capacitor slidably located within the dummy cartridge and which co-operates with a barrel unit housing a switch section, an electronics section, and a pulsed infra-red emitter. On firing the gun the capacitor is propelled forwards by the firing pin of the gun until a probe-like switch portion on the capacitor contacts a corresponding switch portion on the barrel unit so actuating the emitter to give a series of timed pulses which pass through a lens system.

Inventor: ARNOCZKY PAUL
IPC: G01B7/28
Filed: 1987-09-03
Abstract: Dans un procédé pour déterminer et localiser les méplats (18) à la surface de roulement de roues (20, 22, 24, 26) constituées d'un matériau électro-conducteur, on fait appel à un circuit électrique haute fréquence relié aux rails (10, 12). L'évaluation s'effectue par interruption du contact lors qu'un méplat (18) ne repose pas sur le rail. Cette interruption due au méplat intervient à partir d'une vitesse de 40 km/h par exemple. L'évaluation de l'interruption du contact s'effectue sur une section de mesure constituée de deux tronçons (14, 16, 14', 16') identiques d'un rail (10, 12), laquelle section est isolée électriquement en trois points (13, 15, 17, 13', 15', 17') - à ses extrémités et en son milieu. Chaque tronçon est équipé d'un branchement à un circuit électrique haute fréquence séparé. La longueur (1) de la section de mesure constituée des deux tronçons identiques de longueur (s) est adaptée au moins à la plus grande circonférence de roue du véhicule sur rails. Les signaux de mesure sont déclenchés et évalués numériquement à l'aide de microprocesseurs (88, 90, 92, 88', 90'). Les méplats (18) peuvent êtres affectés avec précision à l'essieu concerné (28, 30). Les deux sections de mesure doivent fournir une information univoque sur la présence d'un méplat.

Abstract: A line-up vision system for testing the alignment of a workpiece in a holder of an automated machining apparatus. A light source illuminates one portion of the workpiece and keeps another portion of the workpiece dark. A light colored backdrop provides a sharp edge along the dark portion of the workpiece for a camera directed toward the backdrop. As the workpiece is rotated slowly the camera observes any movement of the sharp edge to determine if the workpiece is properly positioned in the holder of the machining apparatus. If the workpiece is properly positioned the camera provides signals which cause the apparatus to proceed with machining operations on the workpiece.

Inventor: RUTKOWSKI CHRISTIAN DIPL-PHYS
IPC: B23Q15/00
Filed: 1988-12-06
Abstract: The basis for the simulation of machining a workpiece (W) by drilling or milling is a computer-internal model in which the workpiece (W) is described by its corner points (A to H) and surfaces (K to P) and a drilling or a milling cycle (T) is described by its enveloping contour. For this, stores (1, 2, 3) are necessary in which information items on the corner points (A to H), the surfaces (K to P) and the enveloping contour (T) are stored. These stores (1, 2, 3) are accessed by a control process (4) which allocates the information items to geometric elements which are stored in main memories (5, 6) and between which an arithmetic unit (7) determines points of intersection and stores these in a separate point-of-intersection store (8). The control process (4) logically combines the information on the previous status of the model, the enveloping contour of the milling cycle (T) and the points of intersection (R, R'; S, S') to form a description of the workpiece after the machining in the computer-internal model and displays it on the display unit (9).

Abstract: The double-acting piston (42) of a torque wrench has a piston rod (56), the free end of which receives a pin (64) which is guided at each end in straight or curved guide channels (74) in the wrench housing (10). The pin (64) passes through drive shoes (68), slidably received in slots (78) at the upper end of a drive lever (18). The drive lever (18) as it reciprocates rotates a ratchet wheel (14), the ratchet wheel having a square central bore to receive a square drive shaft journalled in the housing (10). 
     If a constant force is applied, the torque wrench provides a substantially constant torque, particularly if the guide channels (74) are curved to compensate for frictional losses. The ratchet mechanism includes rollers (22) which float between grooves (24) in the ratchet wheel (14) and sockets (28) in the drive lever.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for checking the radial dimensions of workpieces such as, for example, shafts and the like. In order to achieve a much higher measuring point density by comparison with known devices of the generic type, a device (10) is proposed according to the invention, which consists of a plate-shaped body (14) and two leaf-spring webs (16) mounted thereupon in front of and behind a workpiece (48), as well as of two clamping strips (26) attached to the side of the workpiece (48) on the leaf-spring webs (16). The clamping strips (26) can be fitted with length-measuring touch probes (62, 64) and can be displaced by a checking distance (49) in the axial direction on the workpiece (48) by actuating a regulating unit (38) which acts on the leaf-spring web (16). It is therefore possible in the range of the checking distance (49) to check the corresponding workpiece region with regard to conicity, sphericity and cylindricity, as well as with respect to deviations from the desired diameter, a single length-measuring touch probe (62) sufficing in the case of a rotating workpiece (48). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Means acting upon the flow, such as pumps or valves are used inter alia in the handling of liquid foodstuffs, e.g. milk, in packing machines. Since the demands on hygiene in this context are very high, especially if the packing machine operates with foodstuff sterilized beforehand, it is a disadvantage that manoeuvring devices for the means acting upon the flow have to pass from the outside into the sterile flow path where the means is located. This is avoided in accordance with the invention in that the means (3) acting upon the flow is combined with an actuator (8) which can be acted upon electromagnetically by a stator (7) isolated from the flow path.
