  • Patent number: 7911971
    Abstract: Configuring of a communications environment is facilitated. A mapping tool is provided that aids in the configuring of various components of a communications environment, such as an input/output (I/O) subsystem of the environment. Data generated from an order process and a logical configuration definition are used as input to the mapping tool. The tool performs mapping and generates as output a physical configuration definition, and optionally, one or more reports. The mapping tool has a manual function, as well as an automatic function.

  • Patent number: 4469460
    Abstract: A serial printer is provided which moves the printhead at optimum velocity with respect to the document being printed so as to achieve maximum throughput. Prior to the printing of each line of alphanumeric characters, the printer contains means for determining the length of said line. In response to said determined line length, drive means move the printhead across the medium at a selected velocity which is based upon the determined line length. The present expedient is particularly applicable to matrix printers wherein the selected velocity is constant during the actual printing of the line.

  • Patent number: 4238167
    Abstract: A toolholder adapter has a cylindrical body, a cylindrical shank extending axially from one end of the body, a cylindrical flange extending radially from the body, a tapered socket within the body for receiving a tapered shank toolholder, and a clamping nut on the body which has inwardly projecting tabs that are positioned to bear against the flange of the tapered shank toolholder to clamp it in the socket. The toolholder adapter is dimensioned to fit in the tool storage magazine of a machine tool and to be handled by the automatic tool changer thereof.

  • Patent number: 4135848
    Abstract: A pair of gripper jaws are pivotally mounted on a machine tool spindle within a central bore that opens into the toolholder socket on the outer end of the spindle. The gripper jaws have serrated outer ends that extend into the toolholder socket in position to engage a threaded opening in the inner end of a toolholder which is to be clamped in the toolholder socket. Cam surfaces on a drawbar which extends between the gripper jaws interact with cam follower surfaces on the gripper jaws to cause the gripper jaws to move radially outwardly to clamp the toolholder within the toolholder socket when the drawbar is moved axially away from the toolholder socket. The gripper jaws have axial play therein. The drawbar is spring biased axially away from the toolholder socket to clamp the toolholder in the toolholder socket and press the toolholder against the margins of the toolholder socket.
