Patent number: 7206679Abstract: A reconfigurable rollover event detection methodology utilizes an existing body of vehicle sensor data. A number of different algorithms or look-up modules develop rollover detection outputs based on different sets of sensor data, and a meta-algorithm combines the various rollover detection outputs to form a single rollover detection output. The number of individual rollover detection outputs is configurable depending on the extent of the available sensor data in a given vehicle and changes in sensor availability that occur due to sensor and communication failures.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2004Date of Patent: April 17, 2007Assignee: Delphi Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Peter J. Schubert, Mariusz Geborek, Bogdan Kowalczyk

Publication number: 20040092222Abstract: A disc-type coin processing device for processing a plurality of coins is disclosed according to one embodiment of the present invention. The coin processing device includes a rotatable disc that imparts motion to the plurality of coins and a stationary head, which has a lower surface generally parallel to and spaced slightly away from the rotatable disc. The lower surface of the stationary head has a plurality of shaped regions that control the movement of the coins. A solid lubricant is disposed on the lower surface of the sorting head.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 29, 2003Publication date: May 13, 2004Inventors: Bogdan Kowalczyk, Mark A. Fladeland

Patent number: 6612921Abstract: A reduced-size coin sorter for sorting coins of mixed diameters is set forth. The sorter includes a coin-driving member and a coin-guiding member. The lower surface of the coin-guiding member forms a plurality of exit channels for guiding coins of different diameters to different exit stations along the periphery of the coin-guiding member. The coin sorter includes an integral base member which concentrically and circumferentially mounts both the rotatable disc and the sorting head. The unitary base member also provides as the mounting structure for the electronics and the motor.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2001Date of Patent: September 2, 2003Assignee: Cummins-Allison Corp.Inventors: Joseph J. Geib, Scott D. Casanova, Bogdan Kowalczyk, Glenn C. Gray, Steven S. Kuhlin

Patent number: 6131625Abstract: The present invention is directed to a clamping device for a coin bag that receives coins from a coin exit region of a coin processing machine. The clamping device includes a mounting structure that is located at the coin exit region. The mounting structure has first and second outer surfaces that are generally angled with respect to a vertical line. A holder member movably mounted with respect to the mounting structure between an opened position and a closed position. The holder member has first and second inner surfaces generally opposing the outer surfaces of the mounting structure when the holder member is in the closed position. A bag receiving region is defined between the first inner and outer surfaces and between the second inner and outer surfaces. The bag receiving region decreases in size when the holder member is moved from the opened position to the closed position where the bag is clamped tightly between the inner and outer surfaces.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 1999Date of Patent: October 17, 2000Assignee: Cummins-Allison CorporationInventors: Scott D.
