20080237212 | CONVECTION PREHEAT SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RADIANT BAKING - A cooking appliance includes a cabinet forming an oven cavity, a broil heating element, a bake heating element, a convection heating system and a controller. The convection heating system develops a flow of heated air into the oven cavity, and includes a fan and a convection heating element. The controller controls activations of the broil, bake and convection heating elements during an oven cavity preheating operation in which the broil heating element and the bake heating element are alternately activated while the convection heating element is activated. | 10-02-2008 |
20130039778 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING LINEAR PUMP SYSTEM - Systems and methods for operating a linear pump system involve operating a linear motor system; reciprocating a linear pump and a motor control module that issues commands and a control logic input to the linear motor system. The linear motor system is operated to reciprocate an output shaft between first and second reversal positions. The linear pump is reciprocated with the output shaft to produce a flow of material. A pump reversal command reverses direction of the output shaft. A torque command controls speed of the output shaft. The control logic input reciprocates the output shaft at speeds to produce a constant output condition of the flow of material. The motor control module adjusts the torque command to operate the output shaft at an increased speed above what is necessary for the constant output condition for a temporary time period beginning when the reversal command is issued. | 02-14-2013 |
20130142672 | METHOD FOR SYNCHRONIZING LINEAR PUMP SYSTEM - A method for synchronizing pistons within linear pumps of a variable dispense ratio system comprises operating first and second pistons, controlling the first and second pistons, and reversing direction of one of the first and second pistons. The first and second pistons are operated within first and second cylinders so that the first piston moves at a slower speed than the second piston to produce a variable dispense ratio. The first and second pistons are controlled to reverse directions whenever one piston reaches an end of its respective cylinder to produce pumping. One of the first and second pistons reverses direction before either piston reaches an end of its respective cylinder to adjust the synchronicity of the pistons. | 06-06-2013 |

20100059587 | Banking system controlled responsive to data bearing records - An automated banking machine operates to cause financial transfers responsive to data read from data bearing records. The machine includes a card reader that reads card data from a card of a machine user. The card data is linked in a data store to both a customer's financial account and a cell phone assigned to that customer. In response to the user's transaction request, contact data for the assigned cell phone is determined from the data store using the read card data. A transaction security code is then sent to that cell phone. The transaction is allowed to proceed only if the user inputs the sent security code to the machine within a predetermined amount of time. Transaction allowance may also be based on a real time determination that the assigned cell phone is physically located proximate the machine. | 03-11-2010 |
