Patent number: 10306899Abstract: A system for processing a suspended beef carcass as the carcass is moved along a defined path. A robotic arm is carried on a moveable table and has mounted thereon a servo motor-driven band saw capable of effecting a splitting operation on the beef carcass. The band saw is counterbalanced by a mass having a weight less than the weight of the band saw, and the robotic arm has a maximum load-carrying capacity less than the weight of the band saw. A torque monitor for the servo motor detects breaks in the band saw or breaks in the support for the band saw. A vision-based sensor system detects location of a tail bone on the beef carcass and identifies an age-indicating indicia. The system includes a controller in communication with the carcass rail, the carcass processing device and motor, and the vision-based sensor system.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2018Date of Patent: June 4, 2019Assignee: JARVIS PRODUCTS CORPORATIONInventor: Daniel Driscoll

Patent number: 10228970Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for bounding the processing domain in a symmetric multiprocessing system are provided. In various implementations, a particular computational task is “affined” to a particular processing unit. Subsequently, when the particular task is executed, the symmetric multiprocessing operating system ensures that the affined processing unit processes the instruction. When the affined processing unit is not processing the particular computational task, the symmetric multiprocessing operating system may cause the processing unit to process alternate instructions. With some implementations, a particular computational task is “linked” to a particular processing unit. Subsequently, when the particular task is executed, the symmetric multiprocessing operating system ensures that the bound processing unit processes the instruction. When the bound processing unit is not processing the particular computational instruction, the bound processing unit may enter a low power or idle state.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2015Date of Patent: March 12, 2019Assignee: MENTOR GRAPHICS CORPORATIONInventors: Michael Trippi, Arvind Raghuraman, Daniel Driscoll

Patent number: 10028514Abstract: A robotic carcass processing system uses a pair of robotic arms having multiple axes of motion, a saw mounted thereon, and a controller. The controller moves the saw in Cartesian space via inverse kinematics with interpolation control over the multiple axes of the robotic arm to synchronously move the saw relative to a carcass on an assembly line. The controller also determines when one of the robotic arms has moved its saw out of a defined space to indicate that space is clear and to permit the other robotic arm to enter that space. A sensor on the assembly line identifies location of the absence of a supported carcass, a supported carcass that requires special handling, or weight or length of a carcass. The controller sends a signal to the robotic arms to either effect a standard cut or to modify the standard cut at the identified location or carcass.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2015Date of Patent: July 24, 2018Assignee: JARVIS PRODUCTS CORPORATIONInventor: Daniel Driscoll
