Patent number: 11478883Abstract: A welding system monitors the changes in the power output provided from a power supply to a device to determine the inductance of power cables between the power supply and the device. The device may determine the inductance of the power cables based at least in part on a delay in a threshold change in voltage to the device after a change in the current demand of the device, a delay in the initialization of the change in the current demand of the device after an initialization signal, a rate of change of the current drawn by the device, or a relative comparison of the voltage to the device and the current drawn by the device, or any combination thereof. If the inductance of the power cables is greater than a threshold inductance, the device may signal the user, disable operation of the device, or any combination thereof.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 2019Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Assignee: Illinois Tool Works Inc.Inventors: Kyle Andrew Pfeifer, Anthony Van Bergen Salsich, Gregg Donald Prochnow, Jeremy Daniel Overesch

Publication number: 20110309063Abstract: A welding wire feeder includes a magnetic rotational sensor system configured to measure a parameter indicative of a wire feed speed of the welding wire feeder. The magnetic rotational sensor system includes a dipole magnet coupled to a gear driven by an electric motor of the welding wire feeder and a magnetic sensor disposed adjacent to the dipole magnet and configured to measure an angular position of the dipole magnet. The magnetic rotational sensor system also includes a processor configured to receive signals of the angular position measured by the magnetic sensor and to calculate a wire feed speed of the welding wire feeder based upon the angular position signals and configuration parameters of the welding wire feeder.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2011Publication date: December 22, 2011Applicant: lllinois Tool Works Inc.Inventors: Brian Lee Ott, Jeremy Daniel Overesch
