  • Patent number: 5643153
    Abstract: The present invention provides a flywheel resistance mechanism for exercise equipment. The flywheel rotates subject to frictional resistance created by contact between a drag strap and an outer cylindrical surface on the flywheel. The outer cylindrical surface has a surface roughness of between fifteen (15) microinches and one hundred and fifty (150) microinches.

  • Patent number: 5319530
    Abstract: A hood for mounting a unidirectional lamp adjacent a window, such as a windshield, of an emergency vehicle and within a passenger compartment of the vehicle for directing light through the window. The lamp includes a housing having a forward portion defining an opening therein, a light source within the housing, and a lamp lens adjacent the forward portion of the housing and covering at least a portion of the opening for directing light from the light source through the opening. The hood comprising a hood body mountable adjacent the window having a rearward end defining a first open port dimensioned for receiving the forward portion of the housing, a forward end defining a second port opposite the first port, and a light pathway between the first and second ports for transmission of a beam of light from the light source through the body. A hood lens is within the body for optically altering the beam of light transmitted along the light pathway.

  • Patent number: 5189344
    Abstract: A solid state control circuit for storing a preset pattern and discharging a strobe tube in accordance with the preset pattern. A solid state control circuit has a programmable memory comprising a plurality of selective partitioned memory locations, each for storing a separate preset pattern, each said pattern for producing a series of timing pulses for discharging the strobe tube. For example, the patterns many include one, two or three flashes per cycle, depending on operator selection. A transformer in the "flyback" configuration and current mode control for charging the strobe tube circuitry. The current mode control uses "lossless" current sensing to limit current flows within the circuitry. The intensity of the strobe tube discharge is varied as a function of the ambient light.

  • Patent number: 4764896
    Abstract: An apparatus for controlling data movement between a peripheral and a data processing system, comprises a memory for storing data, wherein the memory comprises a plurality of memory modules. Each memory module corresponds to an assigned area of a first memory map, the first memory map being duplicated into a plurality of mirrored memory maps. Each mirrored memory map corresponds to a predefined operation, a composite of the first memory map and the plurality of mirrored memory maps forming a total memory space. Each memory location within the total memory space is defined by a unique memory space address. A processor performs a pseudo operation in response to a first control signal from the peripheral indicating data is available for being moved. A logic circuit generates at least one control signal in response to the pseudo operation such that a predetermined data movement operation occurs.

  • Patent number: 4320450
    Abstract: In a data protection apparatus for a multiple CPU system having a common or multiported bulk memory, an interface structure is associated with each of the CPU's. The interface structure cooperates with a firmware engine which is, in turn, a part of the interface control means which controls the transfer of data between the common bulk memory apparatus and each of the several CPU's in the system. Signals generated by the individual CPU's indicative of an emergency situation are applied as input signals to the interface structure. The interface structure then translates those signals into an attention flag signal and signals identifying the source or nature of the emergency. The firmware engine then responds to those signals and effects the necessary measures to protect the data relative to the affected CPU.
