Patent number: 8862917Abstract: The aspects enable a multi-core processor or system on chip to determine a low power configuration that provides the most system power savings by placing selected resources in a low power mode depending upon acceptable system latencies, dynamic operating conditions (e.g., temperature), expected idle time, and the unique electrical characteristics of the particular device. Each of the cores/processing units treated in a symmetric fashion, and each core may choose its operating state independent of the other cores, without performing complex handshaking or signaling operations.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2011Date of Patent: October 14, 2014Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Tracy A. Ulmer, Andrew J. Frantz, Norman S. Gargash, Michael Abel

Patent number: 8459153Abstract: A wrench including an inward opening that has a multi-point configuration for partially-surrounding engagement in a torque-transmitting manner on a polygonal profile of a nut or a bolt head, a radial jaw opening being associated with the inward opening and at least two corners of the multi-point configuration each having a stop for a portion of an end face of the polygonal profile. In order to extend the range of use of the wrench, the jaw opening has oppositely-disposed jaw cheeks as the opening of an open-end wrench for torque-transmitting engagement on the polygonal profile, the jaw cheeks extending over the corners of the multi-point configuration on only one wide face (of the wrench).Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2011Date of Patent: June 11, 2013Assignee: Wera-Werk Hermann Werner GmbH & Co. KGInventor: Michael Abel

Patent number: 7878091Abstract: A screwdriving tool includes a gear head and a drive arm. The gear head forms a gear housing, in which a free wheel or ratchet gear having an output rotational axis is arranged. A front side of the gear head includes an output coupling, in the shape of a polygon. The drive arm can be pivoted about a pivot axis, which is substantially transverse to the output rotational axis, from a quick-action screwdriver position, in which the drive arm is in the output rotational axis, into a power-action screwdriver position, in which the drive arm extends substantially transversely to the output rotational axis and can be fixed in both pivot positions by detents. The detents can be moved from a detent position into a release position by means of an actuating member associated with the drive arm.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2009Date of Patent: February 1, 2011Assignee: Wera Werk Hermann Werner GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 7469909Abstract: A chuck for receiving tools (1) that are operated by rotating around the axis thereof, particularly screwdriver bits, and having an insertion section (3) which is provided with a receiving cavity (2) having a non-circular cross-sectional area (3). The tool can be locked in the cavity (2) by a holding element (4) which is assigned to the cavity wall in order to prevent the tool from being withdrawn from the cavity (2). The holding element (4) can be deactivated by displacing an actuating member in a form of an actuating sleeve (5). The tool (1) rests backwards against the cavity (2). The tool (1) can be displaced from the resting position in the direction of the opening of the cavity (2) by actuating the actuating sleeve (5). In order to facilitate removal of the bit, the chuck also comprises components (15, 16, 17) for releasing the face (1) of the bit, and a magnet (9) which retains the bit in the cavity from the resting position.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2003Date of Patent: December 30, 2008Assignee: Wera Werk Hermann Werner GmbH & Co.
