  • Patent number: 8584096
    Abstract: Systems and methods that facilitate electronic audit recording and tracking of interactions in an industrial control system via employing a differentiation engine that supplies an object-oriented presentation of an audit trail—and further present a view of a desired segment associated with a PLC program (e.g., a particular run of the PLC program), for an object that an audit is requested for. A user (e.g., a customer of the industrial process) can initially identify an object and subsequently view typically all changes to such identified object. Accordingly, a general requirement for checking every version to determine a change to the object is mitigated.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 4898342
    Abstract: A missile with adjustable flight controls capable of altering the missile's flight path is disclosed. The missile comprises an electric generator and control electronics. The electric generator is used in this invention both to provide electrical power to the control electronics and to regulate the flight controls. A mechanical connection is created between the generators rotor and the flight controls. The generator is electrically coupled to the control electronics through an electrically variable load. The control electronics alters the load which varies the rotational speed of the generator. This in turn affects the flight controls and the flight path is altered accordingly. The invention is small and compact, allowing its use in small missiles such as mortar or artillery shells.

  • Patent number: 4296894
    Abstract: The invention relates to a drone-type missile for combatting ground targets from the ground, particularly for the use against targets which emit electromagnetic rays, such as radar stations; with built-in target-seeking head, guidance system, self-propulsion and take-off assist, preferably a booster rocket.

  • Patent number: 4148244
    Abstract: An apparatus for braking a free piston which is driven at a high acceleran within a tube and, particularly, in a recoilless firearm, comprises a tube which has a first portion of a first diameter and a second portion of a second diameter greater than the first portion with a transition portion therebetween. A free piston is freely movable in the first portion and it has substantially the same diameter as the first portion. A braking sleeve is secured to the interior wall of the tube in the second portion thereof and it has an edge facing the piston which is beveled inwardly to a knife edge.
