Publication number: 20240034605Abstract: Described is a safety device for a self-propelled industrial vehicle movable in an operating space, including: a measuring group, configured to detect depth data, representative of a distance, from the measuring group, of bodies arranged in the operating space; an additional measuring group, configured to detect image data, representative of an image of bodies arranged in the operating space; a control unit, connected to the measuring unit and to the additional measuring unit to receive the depth data and the image data. The control unit is programmed to compare the image data with reference image data, for classifying the bodies into predetermined categories. The control unit is programmed for associating to each body a corresponding predetermined category and a corresponding value of distance from the self-propelled vehicle.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 1, 2021Publication date: February 1, 2024Inventors: Carlo PETRELLI, Daniele PARAZZA, Andrea FILIPPINI, Federico FRONTALI, Matteo FILIPPINI

Patent number: 9356095Abstract: Vertical devices and methods of forming the same are provided. One example method of forming a vertical device can include forming a trench in a semiconductor structure, and partially filling the trench with an insulator material. A dielectric material is formed over the insulator material. The dielectric material is modified into a modified dielectric material having an etch rate greater than an etch rate of the insulator material. The modified dielectric material is removed from the trench via a wet etch.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2015Date of Patent: May 31, 2016Assignee: Micron Technology, Inc.Inventors: Andrea Filippini, Luca Ferrario, Marcello Mariani

Patent number: 4565582Abstract: A process for purifying lactulose from other carbohydrates, in particular from lactose and galactose, by passing a lactulose syrup through one or more columns containing a bifunctionalized boron resin of the type: ##STR1## in which .circle.P is a polyacrylic or polystyrene polymer matrix and R, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, X are as defined in the text.By passing the lactulose solution containing carbohydrate impurities through a boron resin (I) of polyacrylic matrix, the lactulose is selectively retained and is subsequently released by elution with an acid solution.The small quantity of galactose which may still be contained in the lactulose-enriched solution can be removed by passing said solution through a boron resin (I) of polystyrene matrix, which selectively retains the galactose.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 1984Date of Patent: January 21, 1986Assignee: SIRAC S.p.A.Inventors: Andrea Filippini, Renato Carobbi
