  • Publication number: 20080155517
    Abstract: Improved systems and methods for developing rule packs can include receiving monitoring rules specified in a markup language, and combining them to produce a rule pack. Combining processes can leverage product development processes such as Integrated Development Environments (IDEs), thereby allowing any number of developers to work on the same rule pack simultaneously. Common settings may be added to rule packs in an automated, platform-specific way, thereby eliminating the need for rule writers to concern themselves with such common settings. Rule packs may be converted from a markup language to a binary file for use by a monitoring service.

  • Patent number: 5421712
    Abstract: A screw rotating and advancing device for an injection molding machine, in which a movable pressure plate is provided with a servomotor to drive a ball screw in association with a ball nut provided at a rear fixing plate, so that the movable pressure plate homogeneously drives a screw shaft passing through a front fixing plate to perform the operations of injection, holding pressure, and measuring back-pressure; and accomplish a close-loop control of the pressure of molding material by using a force sensor. The other side of the movable pressure plate is provided with a servomotor to rotate the screw shaft, so that the rotational speed of the screw shaft can be precisely controlled. Furthermore, the present invention includes a pre-load system including at least two pre-loaded hydraulic cylinders, at least tow pistons and a communicating tube to balance the pressure difference between the prepressurized hydraulic cylinders.
