Abstract: A position transfer device is configured for use on a control valve. These configurations may convert a linear position of a closure member on the control valve to an angular position of magnets. A sensor in proximity to the magnets can generate a signal in response to the angular position. A valve positioner or controller can process the signal to identify the position of the closure member relative to a seat. In one implementation, the position transfer device includes a shaft that clamps onto a pin. This arrangement causes the pin to translate radially about an axis that is perpendicular to the shaft. The magnets move in response to the pin.

Abstract: Wireless charging systems and methods for detecting foreign objects proximate the wireless charging systems. A wireless charging system (10) includes a wirelessly chargeable battery (14) that receives power from a wireless charging device (16) when the wirelessly chargeable battery (14) is proximate the wireless charging device (16). The wireless charging device (16) determines an actual electrical consumption of the wireless charging system (10), and the wirelessly charging battery (14) measures a voltage induced in the wirelessly chargeable battery (14) by the wireless charging device (16). The wireless charging device (16), the wirelessly chargeable battery (14), or a combination of the two determines an expected electrical consumption of the wireless charging system (10) based on the measured voltage, and determines whether a foreign object (12) is proximate the wireless charging system (10) based on the expected and actual electrical consumptions.
