  • Patent number: 9889536
    Abstract: An angle grinder control system including an angle grinder control assembly. The angle grinder control assembly includes an outer-shell, a tightening-rod, an inner-shell, a control-rod, a return-spring, a trigger, and a control-rod-pin. The outer-shell includes a first-half-body-section and a second-half-body-section, where the inner-shell includes a primary-half-body-section and a secondary-half-body-section. The angle grinder control system provides a user an alternate means for controlling an angle-grinder-on/off-switch such that the angle grinder control system provides for safe use of an angle grinder in relation to the user. Embodiments of an angle grinder control system may include vents to promote cooling of the angle grinder. Additional embodiments many include a handle to aid the user in controlling and manipulating the angle grinder.

  • Publication number: 20060209102
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for printing onto a rotating media is described. According to one embodiment, the printing system includes a print head that is laterally displaced from a radial printing radius, a rotating mechanism to rotate the media, and a controller to print onto an annular print area. The annular print area is defined by an inner hub circumference, two lines substantially parallel to the radial printing radius and tangential to the inner hub circumference, and an outer edge of the media. The print head moves about the annular print area by one or more motion mechanism and prints images onto the media.

  • Publication number: 20060055725
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for determining angular position information and the printing of individual ink objects at target print sectors disbursed around an annular surface on a circular spinning media such as on a CD, dynamically during the radial printing process, are described. Mechanisms for computing the instantaneous angular position and apparatus for collocating encoder devices in close proximity to the CD rotation motor are disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20050206661
    Abstract: Disclosed are apparatus and methods for implementing a radial sled printer device that substantially simplifies the complexity and reduces system costs and size for radial printing devices, both for devices that print and those that also record and print a label on circular media. In an embodiment, a print head is radially mounted in a substantially fixed position over a platter such that said platter moves as a sled under the print head for dispensing ink object along a radius or a line parallel to a radius as the media spins, effecting labeling of the media. In an alternate embodiment, a print head is radially mounted in a fixed position over an optical recording drive such that said drive moves as a sled under the print head for dispensing ink object along a radius as the media spins, affecting recording and labeling the media in a single insertion of the media.
