Abstract:

A light-monitoring apparatus includes a power source, a light detector, a computer processor coupled with the power source and in communication with the light detector and configured to receive and record light exposure detected by the light detector, an output device coupled with the computer processor, and a computer-readable medium coupled with the computer processor and storing instruction code for summing the recorded light exposure from the computer processor over time and communicating a signal to the output device to generate and communicate a signal indicating that a cumulative threshold light exposure for achieving a health benefit has been reached. The apparatus can accordingly be used by an individual to monitor cumulative light exposure from both natural and artificial sources, e.g., in the treatment of seasonal or non-seasonal depression.

US Classification:

102 702R

Abstract:

A fuze setting device utilizes a plurality of detented, rotatable, magnet sitioning time setting rings and an encoding disc for controlling the amount of electrical pulses that a timing oscillator is required to subsequently generate to fill an "and" gate controlled multi-stage counter. The counter after being filled generates a fuze initiating signal. A setback detented electromagnetic pulse generating despin operated sensor assembly is used in combination with the oscillator to generate electrical pulses for partially filling the counters in accordance with the relative angular positioning between the magnetic source setting rings and the pole pieces of electrical coils which generate a stop pulse to regulate the number of pulses necessary to fill the counters.

Varn Company - Oakland NJ

International Classification:

B41F 3100

US Classification:

101148

Abstract:

A segmented oscillating fluid evaporator roller for removing excess moisture from the ink in the ink train or dampener system rollers of a printing press. The segmented oscillating roller consists of a hollow shaft having air slots along its length and into which pressurized air is admitted. Rotating and oscillating around the hollow shaft on bearings is a roller shell having roller segments attached thereon. Said roller segments run against and are frictionally driven by an inked roller in the press. Between the roller segments and through the roller shell are air orifices through which the pressurized air is expelled. The pressurized air may be heated to promote moisture evaporation. To ensure the air flows from the air slots of the hollow shaft to the air orifices of the roller shell there is an air channel tube. The air being expelled from the segmented oscillator roller can be directed to impinge on the surface of the driving roller by rotating the hollow shaft and air channel tube.

International Classification:

A47L 700

US Classification:

15321

Abstract:

The present invention is an air operated fluid handling apparatus for cleaning lithographic presses. It provides a printing press operator with a device for both dispensing ink solvents and removing spent fluids used in the printing process. Compressed air is regulated and directed to a T-section connector. One conduit extends from the connector to provide pressure in an ink-solvent container. Another conduit extends from the connector to a venturi which is used to create a vacuum in a used-fluid container. A conduit extends from each container and connects to a light weight flexible hose. Connected to the opposite end of the flexible hose is a valve and nozzle assembly that allows the press operator to alternate between dispensing ink solvent and remove spent fluid. With this apparatus the press operator can effectively move from printing head to printing head dispensing ink solvent and removing used fluids as necessary for ink train and dampening system cleanup.

Abstract:

Current sensing with RDScorrection is disclosed. In an embodiment, a method comprises: measuring an approximate temperature of a MOS transistor switch by a temperature sensor to yield a measured temperature; calculating a corrected temperature from the measured temperature using a stored temperature sensor gain and offset correction function; measuring a gate drive voltage for the MOS transistor; calculating a voltage correction factor using a stored voltage correction function, wherein the stored voltage correction function is a function of the corrected temperature and the gate drive voltage; measuring a RDSvoltage drop across the MOS transistor switch to yield a measured RDSvoltage drop; and calculating the current using the measured RDSdrop and the voltage correction factor.

Abstract:

Light exposure from at least one light source is received with a light detector of a light monitor that includes at least one of (a) an output device and (b) a communication device transported by a user. The light detector converts the light exposure into an electrical signal, and the current time of day at which the light exposure is received is recorded. An instantaneous light exposure value is generated from the electrical signal, and a weighting function is applied to the instantaneous light exposure value as a function of the recorded time of day associated with the light exposure to produce a weighted instantaneous light exposure value. The weighted instantaneous light exposure value is integrated to produce a weighted cumulative luminous exposure value; and the weighted cumulative luminous exposure value is compared with an established luminous-exposure target.
