  • Patent number: 6871715
    Abstract: A system is described for the controlled propulsion of a transporting device including at least two drive wheels propelled by electromotive units, in which system at least two drive wheels are each propelled by independent electric motors; each electric motor receives electric power through an independent power amplifier which amplifies electric signals produced by sensor devices; the sensor devices detect a mechanical force applied on a push and pull element, and convert the mechanical force into electric signals which indicate the degree and the direction of the mechanical force applied on the push and pull element, and the amplifier amplifies the signal in accordance with a factor which is a function of the weight that the trolley has to move and it feeds the electric motor so it can power the drive motor in accordance with a torque corresponding to the movement ordered through the sensor devices.

  • Patent number: 6836534
    Abstract: The conventional high voltage elements (1, 8) constituting it are located in such a way that the ground level (2) is situated in the central zone and from this zone the negative potential progressively increases towards one of the ends (3) while the positive potential progressively increases towards the opposite end (4). It is preferably applicable to radiogenic vessels (9), which also present the particular feature that all the elements constituting them present a voltage distribution identical to that of the transformer, in order to establish equipotential lines that do not require the incorporation of insulating elements, and which also enable the elements to be positioned very close to each other in such a way that the volume, its weight and its cost are considerably reduced.

  • Patent number: 6642829
    Abstract: The invention relates to a high-voltage transformer consisting of conventional elements disposed in two different groups, namely positive voltage elements (1-5) and negative voltage elements (1′-5′), both types of elements being separated by a single insulating barrier (6). One of the ends of all elements has a ground level or “zero voltage” increasing progressively towards the other end in the positive voltage elements and decreasing progressively in the negative voltage elements in such a way that the elements in each group have equipotential voltages at the same level or distance from the ground level. Said structure eliminates parasitic capacitances and makes it possible to mount the elements very close to each other thereby considerably reducing size and consequently costs.

  • Patent number: 4596029
    Abstract: An X-ray generator system is provided with a high-voltage feedback loop for controlling the output of an inverter to thereby maintain a desired output voltage level. The voltage-feedback loop is provided with a phase-advance network to selectively vary the gain of the system in such a way as to provide for high gain during the initial stage so as to obtain a short rise time, while subsequently reducing the gain so as to clamp the kV overshoot at the end of the rise time. A phase-lag network is also included to effectively eliminate noise that is introduced by the phase-advance network.
