20100141443 | SMART CONTAINER UWB SENSOR SYSTEM FOR SITUATIONAL AWARENESS OF INTRUSION ALARMS - An in-container monitoring sensor system is based on an UWB radar intrusion detector positioned in a container and having a range gate set to the farthest wall of the container from the detector. Multipath reflections within the container make every point on or in the container appear to be at the range gate, allowing intrusion detection anywhere in the container. The system also includes other sensors to provide false alarm discrimination, and may include other sensors to monitor other parameters, e.g. radiation. The sensor system also includes a control subsystem for controlling system operation. Communications and information extraction capability may also be included. A method of detecting intrusion into a container uses UWB radar, and may also include false alarm discrimination. A secure container has an UWB based monitoring system. | 06-10-2010 |
20100166104 | UWB DUAL BURST TRANSMIT DRIVER - A dual burst transmitter for ultra-wideband (UWB) communication systems generates a pair of precisely spaced RF bursts from a single trigger event. An input trigger pulse produces two oscillator trigger pulses, an initial pulse and a delayed pulse, in a dual trigger generator. The two oscillator trigger pulses drive a gated RF burst (power output) oscillator. A bias driver circuit gates the RF output oscillator on and off and sets the RF burst packet width. The bias driver also level shifts the drive signal to the level that is required for the RF output device. | 07-01-2010 |

20130280100 | ELECTRONICALLY COMMUTATED PUMP MOTOR CIRCUIT - An electronically commutated pump motor circuit comprises an input configured, to receive at least a first range of voltages, and a power conditioning circuit. The power conditioning circuit includes an active power factor correction circuit, coupled to the input. The power conditioning circuit is configured to receive the first range of voltages and automatically output to an electronically commutated motor (optionally a pump motor) a substantially constant DC voltage for input voltages within the first range of input voltages, boosted with respect to a voltage received at the input, to thereby maintain a substantially constant motor shaft speed for any voltage within the first range of voltages. | 10-24-2013 |

20110204832 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING OPERATIONS OF A MOTOR - A method for controlling a motor is described. The method includes configuring a current sensor to sense a current supplied to the motor from at least one of a plurality of power lines and to generate at least one current signal indicative of the sensed current. The method also includes coupling a processing device to the current sensor such that the processing device receives the current signal. The method also includes configuring the processing device to determine which of the plurality of power lines is active based at least partially on the current signal and generate a motor speed control signal that directs the motor to operate at the motor speed that corresponds to the active power line. | 08-25-2011 |
20120187882 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR CONTROLLING OPERATION OF AN ELECTRIC MOTOR - A motor control system for controlling an electronically controlled motor based at least partially on a signal from a motor timer is described. The system includes a motor controller coupled to the electronically controlled motor and configured to drive the electronically controlled motor and a control device coupled to the motor controller. The control device is configured to provide the motor controller with a first speed control signal corresponding to a first speed in response to a start signal from the motor timer, monitor a first length of time the first speed control signal is provided to the motor controller, and provide the motor controller with a second speed control signal corresponding to a second speed after a first predefined length of time. | 07-26-2012 |
20130214651 | INTERFACE MODULE AND METHOD FOR COMMUNICATING WITH AN ELECTRIC MACHINE - An electric machine that includes a machine housing, a stator positioned at least partially within the machine housing and comprising a plurality of stator windings, a rotor positioned at least partially within the machine housing and configured to rotate with respect to the stator, and a motor controller configured to selectively provide power to the plurality of stator windings is described. The electric machine also includes an interface module configured for coupling to the motor controller. The interface module includes a processing device, a first communication interface coupled to the processing device and configured for coupling with the motor controller, and a second communication interface coupled to the processing device and configured to receive a control signal. | 08-22-2013 |

20100005826 | Convection barrier - A convection barrier for a freezer is disclosed. The convection barrier may include a foil having at least one opening therein, storage and transport means for storing and moving the foil so as to transport the at least one opening to a desired position allowing access through the at least one opening to the interior of the freezer at the desired position and tensioning means for continuously keeping the foil in a tensioned state. | 01-14-2010 |
20100031685 | Convection Barrier - Embodiments of the present invention include a convection barrier for a freezer which may comprise a plurality of individual flaps arranged one above the other in a manner such as to be capable of forming a closed curtain of individual flaps, with each individual flap extending over a predetermined width corresponding at least to the width of the interior of the freezer and being pivotable between a closed position and an open position so as to allow access to the interior of the freezer when the flap is in the open position. Embodiments may also include actuation means attached to the individual flaps for allowing an actuator to engage the actuation means of an individual flap so as to pivot the said flap between the closed position and the open position. | 02-11-2010 |
20100086440 | System and method for robotic storage of microplates - In some embodiments of the present disclosure, a robotic storage system for storing microplates carrying a plurality of sample tubes is provided and may comprise a freezer room having a plurality of freezing units and a first robot being capable of removing a microplate from and moving a microplate into a freezing unit. The first robot may be further capable of transferring the microplate to a processing station, where the microplates are stored in the freezing units such that a plurality of microplates are arranged one above the other in a microplate recipient. The robotic storage system may also include at least one processing room and means for thermally separating the processing room from the freezer room. Each processing room may include a processing station having at least one tube transfer module as well as a second robot for moving the microplates between the microplate recipients and the at least one tube transfer module. The first robot may be designed such that it is only capable of removing a microplate recipient from and moving it into a said freezing unit as well as of transferring it from a freezing unit to a processing station or vice versa. | 04-08-2010 |
