Abstract: The invention relates to a method for regulating an acceleration of a turbomachine, the turbomachine comprising a combustion chamber, a high-pressure turbine located downstream of the combustion chamber and which drives a high-pressure shaft in rotation, and a low-pressure turbine located downstream of the high-pressure turbine and which drives a low-pressure shaft in rotation, characterized in that the method comprises the following steps: injecting mechanical power onto the high-pressure shaft until a speed of the high-pressure shaft attains a target value, then extracting mechanical power from the high-pressure shaft so as to maintain the speed at the target value.

Abstract: A method for regulating the temperature of the exhaust gases of a turbomachine, the method including regulation of the injection of fuel into a combustion chamber of the turbomachine so that the turbomachine generates a target thrust; regulation of the injection of mechanical power by an electric motor onto a shaft driven in rotation by a turbine, the electric motor being activated when a clearance between a casing and the blades of the turbine exceeds a threshold value.

Abstract: A method of regulating a temperature associated with a heat exchanger assembly of a turbine engine, the method includes, in a single cycle: measuring the temperature of an air stream at the outlet from a heat exchanger; receiving a setpoint temperature for the air stream at the outlet from the heat exchanger; estimating a theoretical temperature for the air stream at the outlet from the heat exchanger as a function of an estimate of the shutter position of a controlled valve bleeding off a cooling air stream for the heat exchanger; determining a correction current from the difference between the measured temperature and the theoretical temperature; and determining a control current for the shutter from the difference between the measured temperature and the setpoint temperature and the correction current determined during the preceding cycle, the shutter position being determined from the control and correction currents determined during the preceding cycle.

Abstract: An automatic data collection device is provided for reading barcodes, matrix codes, stacked codes, or other machine-readable symbol. The data collection device generates an aiming beam that serves a dual purpose of target locating and data acquisition, such as data acquisition using imaging methods. The aiming beam defines the field of view of the data collection device for imaging. The illumination pattern provided by the aiming beam for imaging can have its shape, size, and/or intensity adaptively changed depending on conditions.

Abstract: An optical assembly includes a first tubular member having a pitched bearing surface proximate one end; a second tubular member having a pitched bearing surface proximate one end; a coupling tubular member fixedly coupled to the second tubular member and rotatably and slideably coupled to the first tubular member; and an optical element received in at least one of the first, the second or the coupling tubular members. At least a portion of the pitched bearing surface of the first tubular member is in engaging contact with at least a portion of the pitched bearing surface of the second tubular member. Rotating the first tubular member with respect to the second tubular member smoothly varies a distance between the first and second tubular members and allows a large, smooth adjustment with little effort. Rotation in a single direction returns the distances to an initial starting point.
