20110291578 | TEMPERATURE COMPENSATED DRIVER FOR PULSED DIODE LIGHT SOURCE - A pulsed diode light source driver includes a variable output power supply, an output capacitor, a switchable linear current driver, a temperature sensor, a conditioning circuit, and a voltage monitor. The temperature sensor monitors the temperature of the capacitor while the voltage monitor circuit monitors the output voltage level. The conditioning circuit and the voltage monitor cooperatively control the output voltage of the variable output power supply, so that temperature-related changes in the characteristics of the capacitor are compensated for, and a constant current is maintained through the diode load over a desired range of temperature. The driver is suitable for laser diodes and light emitting diodes. | 12-01-2011 |

20100072512 | Silicon break over diode - A Break Over Diode (“BOD”) device is a gate-less two terminal high power semiconductor switch in which transitions from a blocking state to a conducting state are triggered by a dV/dt pulse to the anode. The BOD device can be thought of as two cross-coupled PNP and NPN transistors, and includes both anode and cathode shorts which reduce the gain of the NPN and PNP transistors by shunting some current away from their bases directly to their emitters, thereby improving blocking. Moreover, the anode and cathode shorts in conjunction with the device blocking junction form PN diodes which are distributed throughout the bulk of the material and function as anti-parallel diodes to the base-emitter junctions of the PNP and NPN transistors, which enables the BOD device to handle a larger current reversal for a longer period of time. The P base layer may be made thin to decrease the voltage fall time from full blocking to full conduction, and the cathode and anode shorts may be provided in a honeycomb pattern. | 03-25-2010 |

20140299580 | METHOD FOR WELDING ROTORS FOR POWER GENERATION - The invention relates to a method for welding rotors for power generation having a plurality of rotor discs arranged along a rotor axis. The method includes providing forged and NDT tested rotor discs and machining the discs for weld seam preparation. The weld seam preparation has an inner narrow TIG welding gap and an adjoining outer SAW welding gap. The method further includes stapling the discs on top of each other; and checking the run-out of the stapled discs relative to each other and as a whole and, if necessary, adjusting the staple. In addition the method includes melting the root of the weld without weld filler using TIG welding; increasing the weld height by narrow gap TIG welding with parent metal weld filler to allow tilting of the rotor in horizontal position; tilting the rotor in horizontal position; finalizing the welding by filling the outer SAW welding gap using SAW welding; and checking the welds of the rotor by NDT using ultrasonic testing. A weld seam preparation machining step that includes preparing an optimized transition geometry of TIG welding gap to SAW welding gap transition with a first opening having a first opening angle and a second opening having a second opening angle greater than said first opening angle. | 10-09-2014 |

20150242960 | AUDITING SYSTEM WITH INCREASED ACCURACY - Methods, systems, and computer program products for auditing a transaction involving a sale by one business entity of a ticket for a travel product provided by another business entity. An audit module receives a pricing context of the transaction and determines an audit amount therefrom. The audit amount is compared to a price charged for the transaction to determine if an agency debit memo should be generated. If the pricing context for the transaction is not available and a ticketing office that issued the ticket is flagged for enhanced auditing, the audit module may determine one or more pricing context parameters by determining prices for a plurality of combinations of pricing context parameters. These prices may be compared to the price charged for the transaction, and the combination of pricing context parameters having a matching price may be selected. The pricing context parameters may then be used to generate audit related documents. | 08-27-2015 |
