  • Publication number: 20100268759
    Abstract: A request for web content is received from a web client device at a web content server. At least one of a logging enablement status and a logging level associated with the web content is determined. Client-side logging executable syntax is configured within the web content based upon the determined logging enablement status and logging level associated with the web content. The web content with the configured client-side logging executable syntax is sent to the web client device. This abstract is not to be considered limiting, since other embodiments may deviate from the features described in this abstract.

  • Publication number: 20090107372
    Abstract: A system for forming multiple patterned, tufted articles, includes a tufting machine having a series of distinct machine sections each adapted to form a desired patterned, tufted articles and each operable independently of the other machine sections. A system control can be programmed with pattern parameters for each of the patterned tufted articles to be formed, and will control the machine sections to form each of the patterned tufted articles.

  • Patent number: 6318730
    Abstract: An improved tufting machine push rod housing gland seal assembly for use with a tufting machine is disclosed. The gland seal assembly of the invention includes an elongate carrier formed by a longitudinal axis, having a first end and a spaced second end, constructed for being received within a gland seal receiving cavity defined within a push rod housing. A concentric throughbore is defined within the carrier about the longitudinal axis. A first continuous annular groove is defined in a side wall of the bore, and an axially spaced second continuous annular groove is also defined in the side wall of the bore. The two grooves together define therebetween a continuous annular bearing surface for supporting and guiding the push rod as it is reciprocated through the gland seal assembly and along the axis, thus minimizing the impact of push rod flexure or oscillation on the gland seal assembly, and the push rod housing.

  • Patent number: 6154836
    Abstract: A method and system are disclosed for configuring PnP devices for a computer operating system by initiating a power on self test (POST) within a computer system for configuring PnP and PCI devices. During the process of configuring PnP and PCI devices, a list is composed of devices that are not absolutely necessary for booting the system (e.g. modem or ethernet controller). While the PCI devices are configured, if the system has no usable IRQ's, POST takes one from a nonessential PnP ISA (Industry Standard Architecture) device in the list, and gives it to the PCI device. The POST operation searches for the presence of a PnP operating system option while progressing through the startup sequence (of bootable media), and activates or deactivates all devices, depending on the type of media being attempted. If the medium is the hard disk (where the PnP operating system option resides), all of the PnP devices in the list are deactivated.

  • Patent number: 6145021
    Abstract: A method and system for managing resources required by peripheral devices present within a computer system, the resources selected from a group of resources required for audio, video, pointing device, input, output, memory, and modem devices. A nominal selection of resources is initially associated with a peripheral device present within the computer system. Next, a minimal amount of resources required by the peripheral device to function normally within the computer system is determined, in response to associating the nominal selection of resources with the peripheral device.

  • Patent number: 5896821
    Abstract: A conventional tufting machine is provided with front and rear juxtaposed, laterally shiftable, needle bars positioned on a common needle bar support. A first series of needles having a first take-off hand, in a first gauge, are embedded in a first needle gauge block mounted on the front needle bar. A second series of needles of an opposite take-off hand, in a second gauge, are embedded in a second needle gauge block fastened to the rear needle bar. The needles of the first and second series of needles, respectively, combine together to form a third series of needles of a desired gauge of the machine, the gauge of the machine being narrower than the gauge of either the first or second series of needles, respectively.

  • Patent number: 5857422
    Abstract: A tufting machine belt driven gauging element drive assembly (5) for use with a tufting machine (7) is disclosed. The drive assembly includes a spindle assembly (24) rotatably supported on the tufting machine with respect to at least one elongate gauging element drive shaft (31, 34). The spindle assembly is rotated in timed relationship with the rotation of a tufting machine drive shaft (16) by a drive sprocket (20) mounted on the tufting machine drive shaft, a flexible timing belt (21) encircling the drive sprocket and a driven sprocket (23) formed as a part of the spindle assembly. The spindle assembly has at least one adjustable cam assembly (52a, 52b) affixed thereto and having a stub shaft (54a, 54b) formed as a part thereof which is parallel to and offset from the longitudinal axis of the spindle shaft, and which orbits the axis of the spindle shaft as the spindle shaft is rotated.

  • Patent number: 5743201
    Abstract: A yarn feed mechanism for use with a tufting machine is disclosed. The tufting machine has a needle bar with an aligned series of spaced tufting needles disposed thereon, each of which is supplied with yarn from a yarn supply for penetrating a backing material to sew tufts of yarn therein. The yarn feed mechanism includes a support framework mounted on the tufting machine adjacent a yarn feed path extending from the yarn supply to the needles of the tufting machine, with at least one yarn feed roll assembly mounted for rotation on the support framework. The yarn feed roll assembly further includes an elongate yarn feed roll having an exterior yarn driving periphery extending along a longitudinal axis parallel to the needle bar of the tufting machine, the yarn feed roll being rotated in timed relationship with the reciprocation of the needle bar.

  • Patent number: 5706745
    Abstract: A tufting machine belt driven drive assembly (5) for use with a tufting machine (7) is disclosed. The drive assembly includes a spindle assembly (24) rotatably supported on the tufting machine with respect to a looper drive shaft (31) and a spaced and parallel knife drive shaft (34). The spindle assembly is rotated in timed relationship with the rotation of tufting machine drive shaft (16) by a drive sprocket (20) mounted on the tufting machine drive shaft, a flexible timing belt (21) encircling the drive sprocket and a driven sprocket (23) formed as a part of the spindle assembly. The spindle assembly has a pair of cam assemblies (52a, 52b) affixed to the spaced ends (41, 42) of the spindle shaft, each cam assembly having an offset stub shaft (54a, 54b) with respect to the longitudinal axis of the spindle shaft for orbiting the spindle shaft.

  • Patent number: RE37108
    Abstract: Symmetrical, modular blocks each having a plurality of fixed, equally spaced, gauging elements, namely loopers, needles, and reeds protruding therefrom, the blocks are positioned on the sides of the guide bars of a tufting machine, each guide bar having transverse channels at equally spaced intervals. These channels respectively receive guide bars of the blocks when the blocks are removably positioned on the sides of the guide bar. Bolts or screws secure the blocks in place on their guide bars so that their needles, loopers, and reeds are appropriately gauged and positioned for tufting action, protruding toward the tufting zone.
