Patent number: 7018703Abstract: Provided are thin-laminate panels (i.e., thin-laminate panels having dielectric layers of about 0.006 inches or less and conductive layers on either side of the dielectric layer), wherein the edges of the dielectric layers of the panels are free of conductive material, such as copper. The thin-laminate panel is designed to provide necessary capacitance for all or a substantial number of the integrated circuits to be formed thereon. Finishing methods for treating unfinished thin-laminate panels into finished thin-laminate panels assure that the edges of the dielectric layer of the panel are substantially free of conductive material.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2004Date of Patent: March 28, 2006Assignee: Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd.Inventors: Arthur J. Fillion, Osamu Kogami, Terrence A. Smith

Publication number: 20060061355Abstract: A method for implementing program execution integrity (PEI) for a communication-based sensor includes receiving an output communication message from the sensor, the output communication message including sensor output data internally processed within the sensor. The output communication message further includes raw data used by the sensor in internally processing the sensor output data. The raw data is independently processed, and the results thereof are compared with the internally processed sensor output data so as to verify the processing integrity of the sensor to a desired tolerance.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 4, 2004Publication date: March 23, 2006Inventors: Scott Wendling, Terrence Smith, Jeffrey Klass, Takashi Miyano

Publication number: 20050279385Abstract: A method and system for positioning a vehicle within the wash area of a wash system having a first sensor positioned near the entry of the wash system and a second sensor positioned near the exit of the wash system. A signal is operatively connected to the sensors to signal the driver to stop, back up, and confirm that the vehicle is located in the wash area between the first and second sensors.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2005Publication date: December 22, 2005Applicant: RYKO MANUFACTURING COMPANYInventors: Richard GRIER, Terrence SMITH

Patent number: 4453778Abstract: A hydraulic brake control device has a load sensing component connected through an electric circuit to a motorized proportioning valve which loads or unloads a resilient member therein to vary the split point of the proportioning valve. The electric circuit has an attitude cutoff switch and a speed cutoff switch which deactuate the electric circuit when the vehicle is pitched or rolled above a predetermined horizontal attitude and moving faster than a predetermined speed, respectively. The electric circuit can either actuate the motor to load the resilient member within proportioning valve, unload the resilient member within proportioning valve, or render the motor inactive and maintain the proportioning valve in a status quo condition.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 1980Date of Patent: June 12, 1984Assignee: Ford Motor CompanyInventors: Terrence Smith, Thomas S.
