Patent number: 11637550Abstract: A clock selector circuit includes a first input for receiving a reference clock signal having a reference frequency, a second input for receiving an offset clock signal having an offset frequency, a clock output for outputting the reference or offset clock signal, and switching circuitry. The switching circuitry includes a switching input and sign detector circuitry that outputs a sign signal indicating whether the reference clock signal is leading the offset clock signal in phase. In response to receiving a switching signal, the switching circuitry detects when like edges of the reference clock signal and the offset clock signal are aligned to within a predetermined tolerance, with the new signal leading the current signal if the offset frequency is lower than the reference frequency, or with the new clock signal trailing the current clock signal if not. In response, the switching circuitry switches to outputting the new clock signal.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2022Date of Patent: April 25, 2023Assignee: Nordic Semiconductor ASAInventor: Simon Berg

Publication number: 20230084177Abstract: A wind turbine blade includes a profiled contour with a leading edge and a trailing edge, and a chord extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge, along with a blade shell with a pressure side and a suction side, a first main spar cap integrated in the pressure side of the blade shell, a second main spar cap integrated in the suction side of the blade shell, and one or more shear webs connected between the first main spar cap and the second main spar cap. The blade shell includes at least a first load carrying structure arranged at the leading edge or the trailing edge and having a first extension, including a first primary extension on a first side of the chord, where the first primary extension is at least 60% of the first extension.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 27, 2022Publication date: March 16, 2023Applicant: LM WIND POWER US TECHNOLOGY APSInventors: Morten RAVN, Peter HANSEN, Simon BERG BOJESEN, Casper SKOVBY, Mads DØSSING, Peter BÆK, Christian Frank ANDERSEN, Michael KLITGAARD, Mark Olaf SLOT

Patent number: 10316817Abstract: A manufacturing method is described for a wind turbine blade, where layers of fiber material are laid up in a mold to form a portion of the blade structure. The fiber layers are infused with a resin which is subsequently cured to form the hardened blade structure. Some of the layers of fiber material are arranged so that a portion of the layers are kept resin-free during the infusion and curing steps, so that the fiber layer extends freely out from the external surface of the blade, preferably at the blade trailing edge, to provide a flexible blade trailing edge to reduce blade operational noise.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2015Date of Patent: June 11, 2019Assignee: LM WP PATENT HOLDING A/SInventors: Michael Klitgaard, Christian Frank Andersen, Morten Ravn, Casper Skovby, Simon Berg Bojesen, Peter Baek

Patent number: 9909562Abstract: A control method for a wind turbine, in particular for a wind turbine blade is described. The control method makes use of the blade mode shapes, or natural vibration shapes, of the blade to detect the excitement level of the blade natural vibrations, and controls active lift devices on the blade in an effort to reduce the excitement levels, to reduce loading in the blade and the overall wind turbine structure. There is also provided a method of designing a wind turbine blade for use in such a method.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2012Date of Patent: March 6, 2018Assignee: LM WP PATENT HOLDING A/SInventors: Peter Baek, Christian Frank Andersen, Mark Olaf Slot, Casper Skovby, Simon Berg Bojesen, Morten Ravn, Michael Klitgaard

Patent number: 6547624Abstract: A toy building set of building elements (10, 14) having a coupling means (11, 12, 13) by which building elements (10, 14) may be built together. One of the building elements (20) contains a camera, which is adapted to record images of its surroundings. A user may built a remote-controlled toy (30) in which the building element (20) with the camera may be arranged in positions and with an orientation at the user's option. A film production system with a camera and recording and editing facilities. Movable objects and a plurality of predefined positions for the movable objects, and means for holding the movable objects in selected one of the predefined positions when the camera records one or more images. Thereby the movable objects can be placed accurately and repeatedly in predetermined positions. The predefined positions are preferably defined by toy building elements having coupling means for interconnecting building elements.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2001Date of Patent: April 15, 2003Assignee: Interlego AGInventors: Simon Berg Bojesen, Richard Siegrist
