  • Patent number: 11679417
    Abstract: An equipment for automatically feeding parcels to a sorting conveyor, the equipment having a platform for temporarily storing a pile of parcels arranged loosely, a first vision system designed to form a digital image of the loose pile of parcels while the pile is stationary on the platform, a processor unit having setting data for responding to the digital image by identifying a parcel for singulating that presents a grip face that is not covered by another parcel, and by supplying indicative data about the three-dimensional position, the orientation in three dimensions, and the dimensions of the grip face, and a pneumatic gripper head of a robotic arm that is controlled on the basis of the data so as to take hold of the parcel for singulating by its grip face.

  • Patent number: 10509901
    Abstract: The invention is a method for managing a secure element that comprises an operating system and a software application including an executable part which is tied to the operating system through a plurality of links. The method comprises the following steps: on receipt of an un-map command, recording in a memory area of the secure element a description of said links using an intermediate language, replacing the operating system by a new operating system by keeping said memory area unchanged, on receipt of a re-map command by the secure element, restoring a new set of links between the executable part and the new operating system by using the description.

  • Patent number: 9463492
    Abstract: A method of merging postal articles (11) for delivery together with mailpieces (2) sorted in a machine (1) into relevant delivery rounds, the method comprising the following steps: entering data into the sorting machine that is representative of the delivery addresses of the postal articles to be merged; in the sorting machine, simulating an ordered sequence of mailpieces for delivery on the relevant delivery round, and, on the basis of said data, determining in this simulated sequence respective locations for said postal articles to be merged; sorting said mailpieces into sorting outlets of the machine for delivery on relevant delivery rounds, and, while each mailpiece is being machine-sorted, detecting whether said mailpiece is a mailpiece adjacent to a postal article to be merged in said simulated sequence; and responding to each said detection by inserting a separator (10) into the sorting machine so as to direct it automatically towards the sorting outlet of the machine that corresponds to the deliver

  • Patent number: 9414532
    Abstract: The invention provides an electrical power module, including power transistors, and control components for controlling said power transistors, said module being cooled, in particular, by heat conduction. The module of the invention further includes a main substrate of the AMB/Si3N4 type carrying the power transistors, this main substrate itself constituting a heat-dissipating baseplate for dissipating the heat generated by the power transistors by being arranged in the module to be directly in contact with the carrier structure that provides cooling by conduction when said module is in place, and a ceramic substrate carrying the control components, this ceramic substrate itself being carried by the main substrate.
