Patent number: 8310196Abstract: A method and an apparatus for the failsafe monitoring of an electromotive drive without additional sensors, including a drive having a three-phase control of an electric motor, detection of the current and voltage profiles of each of the three phases, as they are forwarded to the motor by drive electronics, determination of the load speed while using the detected current and voltage values, where the determination of the load speed takes place by calculating an observer model with reference to the detected current, to the detected voltage, to the frequency preset by the control and to the characteristic data of the motor and generation of a failsafe switch signal for the motor when the calculated load speed does not correspond to a preset desired speed within the framework of preset tolerances. The load torque can also be determined and monitored with reference to the observer model.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2010Date of Patent: November 13, 2012Assignee: Sick AGInventor: Mathias Ams

Patent number: 6568088Abstract: A wheel attachment apparatus for a portable circular saw having a circular blade driven by a motor for cutting a workpiece into a cut-off portion and a remaining portion during a cutting process. The wheel attachment apparatus includes a flat bottom plate attached to the circular saw and to be placed above the working piece to support the circular saw during the cutting process, and having a slot opening to allow the circular blade of the circular saw to pass through for cutting the workpiece under the bottom plate. A set of roller wheels is attached to the bottom plate such that when the circular saw is used to cut the workpiece, the set of wheels is brought into contact with the workpiece and elevates the bottom plate so that there is no contact between the bottom plate and the workpiece and instead the wheels are rolling on the workpiece to reduce any friction between the bottom plate and the workpiece and ease the movement of the circular saw during the cutting process.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2002Date of Patent: May 27, 2003Inventor: Mathias Am Ende
