Abstract: A robot multi-arm control system includes robot controllers that communicate via a network to transmit synchronization information from a master controller to one or more slave controllers in order to coordinate manufacturing processes. The system accounts for the network communication delay when synchronizing the event timing for process and motion synchronization.

Abstract: Milling apparatus for reducing the size of grain kernels or particles by impact with a solid surface as the grain is moved through the apparatus by an air stream created by rotation of a rotor within a stationary casing having an inlet opening at or near the center and an outlet opening at the outer periphery. The rotor comprises a circular disk having a series of elements affixed to a surface thereof in a circular configuration spaced outwardly from the center of the rotor. The elements comprise sections of hollow steel tubing of rectangular cross section or toothed blades so arranged that grain traveling radially outwardly from the inlet to the outlet opening of the casing impact with the elements with a force sufficient to break the grain. The particles may be passed through additional rotor stages, and the particle size or texture of the final product may be controlled by the speed of rotor rotation and the number of rotor stages through which the grain is passed.

Abstract: A garage door opener with solenoid latches is provided with a circuit for energizing the coils of the solenoid latches with power from a 24-volt step-down transformer, either as 120 volt power is applied to a motor to move the door in response to detection of an initial surge of current or as a manual or radio controlled command switch is actuated. In either case, current at a higher level is applied initially to pull in the armature locking pins of the solenoid latches, and thereafter at a lower hold-in level. A transformer with a single turn primary winding or a Hall-effect device may be used to detect the initial surge of current to the motor and in response thereto pull in the locking pins. Thereafter, hold-in current is applied as long as current to the motor is sensed.

Abstract: A garage door lock system is described which resists prying open while facilitating authorized opening of the system in the event of a power failure or other malfunction. The system includes a lock box (16) fastened to a door frame, and a solenoid (22) mounted in the box. The solenoid has a plunger (24) which can pass through a hole (26) in a latch mounted on the garage door when the door is closed. The solenoid is mounted so it can be manually moved to an inward position to withdraw the plunger from the latch hole to permit opening of the garage door in the event of a power failure. The solenoid is flexibly mounted so it is not broken free when the plunger is pressed to one side by a vandal or pressed to the opposite side by the door closing when the plunger is extended. An alignment rod (56) which is coupled to the plunger, biases the plunger back towards an orientation in alignment with the plunger-receiving holes in the lock box and latch when sideward pressure in either direction is removed.

Abstract: A door lock system is described of the type wherein the solenoid that includes a plunger retractable from a latch hole, can be manually slid away from the latch hole. The solenoid coil is mounted on a slideable bracket by leaf springs with bent ends, that permit the coil to pivot when the plunger is forced against a side of the latch hole.

Abstract: A conventional garage door opener assembly has integrated therewith an electrically actuated solenoid assembly at each side of the garage door actionable between the garage door frame and the door. In the case of a solidly assembled door pivotal between closed and opened position, the solenoid assemblies are mounted near the lower extremities of the door so as not to interfere with door movement, while still being capable of locking the door in closed position. The solenoid assemblies are interiorly secured at the door frame sides with the housings thereof permanently projecting across the clearance spaces between the door frame and door and interiorly overlapping the door with the solenoid plungers projectable therefrom in this overlapping positioning into aligned latch members secured interiorly of the door.
