20100230546 | CONTROL SYSTEM AND CONTROL METHOD FOR AIRBORNE FLIGHT - A control system and method for control of a cyclical flying system which uses lift segments, which may be airfoils, which rotate around a central hub, similar to the mechanics of an autogyro. The airfoils may achieve speeds significantly above the wind speed feeding the system. The airfoils may be linked to the central hub by flexible radial tethers which stiffen considerably as the speed of the airfoil increases. The central hub may be linked to the ground with an extendible main tether. Power generation turbines may reside on the airfoils and utilize the high apparent wind speed for power generation. The generated power may travel down the radial tethers and across a rotating power conduit to the main tether and to the ground. The airborne assembly may have the rotational speed of the airfoils, its altitude, and its attitude controlled by using control surfaces linked to the airfoils, or by control of the angle of attack of the airfoils relative to a central hub, or relative to each other. The attitude and altitude sensors and the control system may be airborne and may be part of the rotating assembly. The airborne assembly can be moved to areas of appropriate wind speed for the system using these controls. | 09-16-2010 |

20110138914 | ACCELERATION SENSOR - An acceleration sensor includes: a rectangular moving electrode; a pair of beams which connect to centers of two opposite sides of the moving electrode, and support the moving electrode freely swingably; and first and second fixed electrodes which are provided on one side and other side of a boundary line, respectively, and are arranged to be opposed to a front surface of the moving electrode at a predetermined interval. A straight line that connects the pair of beams to each other is taken as the boundary line.

20100076248 | Incubator - An incubator according to the present invention will be able to prevent accidents to the incubator itself or other devices, a doctor, a nurse or others causing external force even if the external force is applied to a canopy of a newborn chamber. An optical detector in a control mechanism detects application of external force to the canopy of the newborn chamber, and a signal output section in the control mechanism outputs a signal that renders a driving mechanism for lowering and raising the canopy non-operational when the application of external force is detected. Accordingly, even if external force is applied to the canopy by bump, contact, putting some object or others, the driving mechanism will not continue or start to lower or raise the canopy while the external force is applied to the canopy because the driving mechanism will be rendered non-operational. | 03-25-2010 |
