  • Publication number: 20160218638
    Abstract: An inverter phase leg for a DC-AC inverter includes a high supply line and a low supply line across which a DC voltage is provided. A high side gate controlled switch is connected to the high supply line and a low side gate controlled switch is connected to the low supply line, with an output node between the high side switch and the low side switch. An inverting driver is connected to the high side gate controlled switch. The inverting driver's voltage source is configured in such a way as to hold the high side gate controlled switch off during the turn on cycle until the driver output has overcome the negative bias generated across the high side switch gate, producing high immunity to spurious turn on. A digital isolator is connected between the inverting driver and a control signal for switching the inverter phase leg. A differential transmitter and differential receiver may be used to further increase noise immunity.

  • Patent number: 7578122
    Abstract: A rocket motor case includes a plurality of plank sections which provide a structural key for locking metal and/or composite end enclosures in place as part of the motor case. The plank sections are sized longitudinally to form venting spaces in the motor case sidewall to allow passive venting in the event of propellant ignition during cook-off. The plank sections have plank legs which are surrounded by tailorable roll-bonded sheet material to complete formation of the motor case sidewall.

  • Publication number: 20080109008
    Abstract: An implantation device and method for applying the same has an implantation device for implantation in a target structure such as a bone. The implantation device comprises a shaft region, wherein the shaft region has at least one protrusion. The protrusion comprises a material which is modifiable by using mechanical energy. In particular, the modifiable material may be liquefiable and/or shearable by the mechanical energy. Preferably, the material may be adapted in such a way that the modifications may be achievable by a mechanical energy input which does not destroy human tissue.

  • Patent number: 7285738
    Abstract: A control knob for a control panel assembly having a panel to which a push-and-turn switch assembly is mounted, with the switch assembly having a stem axially movable and rotatable to effect actuation of the switch assembly. The control knob has a cap and a skirt. The cap is axially immobile relative to the stem, and the skirt is coupled with the stem for axial movement therewith. The skirt is axially moveable relative to the cap. An axial force acting on the cap is not transferred to the stem and an axial force acting on the skirt will cause axial movement of the stem.

  • Patent number: 6771916
    Abstract: An air quality management apparatus for use in a modular electrostatographic color printer. For air quality management a non-air-conditioned open-loop portion is provided for managing quality of air in a first interior volume, and an air-conditioned recirculation portion is provided for managing quality of air in a second interior volume. The first interior volume includes a fusing station for fusing color images on receiver members. The second interior volume includes a number of tandemly arranged image-forming modules, as well as an auxiliary chamber associated with, yet isolated from, each module, such that air-conditioned air flowing through each module does not mix with air-conditioned air supplied to the modules and to devices within the modules. The second interior volume is differentiated from the first interior volume by at least one separating member. The air-conditioning device is for controlling temperature and relative humidity of air included in the second interior volume.
