20100147215 | ELECTROSTATIC SPRAYING ARRANGEMENT - A transformer arrangement is disclosed for an electrostatic sprayer or in an adjacent moving element of a coating machine. A transformer provides a galvanic isolation between the line arrangement provided for supplying power to the sprayer arrangement, and consumers at high voltage in the sprayer or possibly in the robot arm. This isolation may be provided with an isolating transformer which has a sufficient isolation distance or other isolation device between the primary and secondary circuits. | 06-17-2010 |
20100211205 | METHOD FOR PROCESS DIAGNOSIS AND ROTARY ATOMIZER ARRANGEMENT - A rotary atomizer arrangement and methods for operating the same are disclosed. An exemplary atomizer may be used for the coating of work pieces, and may include a bell plate driven by an electric motor. The exemplary atomizer may further be configured for the detection of errors in the spraying process and/or the drive system of the bell plate, such as by analyzing corresponding parameters of typical values of the drive motor. | 08-19-2010 |
20100242991 | DUSTING METHOD AND CORRESPONDING DUSTING DEVICE - A dedusting device and method is disclosed for the dry or moist dedusting (i.e., cleaning, dusting, or removal of dirt, dust, or other debris) from components, e.g., of motor vehicles. An exemplary method may generally include positioning a dusting tool driven by a drive motor in a predetermined dusting position such that the tool contacts or touches the component, and determining a first operating variable of the drive motor of the dusting tool when positioning the dusting tool in the predetermined dusting position. The first operating variable may reflect a mechanical load of the drive motor due to the contact with the component to be dusted. The method may further include calculating a corrected dusting position as a function of the predetermined dusting position and the first operating variable of the drive motor, and positioning the dusting tool in the corrected dusting position. | 09-30-2010 |

20110045194 | ROBOT COMPRISING A CLEANING DEVICE AND ASSOCIATED OPERATING METHOD - Exemplary robots and corresponding exemplary operating methods for a painting system are disclosed. In one example, the robot is a handling robot for opening and closing doors or bonnets of motor vehicle bodies. A robot element of a handling robot that is susceptible to dirt retention, e.g., a handling tool, may be arranged away from the spray jet of a paint during the painting operation and is applied to the component that is to be painted. The robot may include a cleaning device for cleaning or for keeping the robot element of the handling robot that is susceptible to dirt retention clean from paint that is applied with spray jet in the painting operation. | 02-24-2011 |
20110094444 | PAINTING STATION COMPRISING A MEASURING CELL FOR MEASURING THE LAYER THICKNESS - A painting station, e.g., for serially painting components such as motor vehicles, is disclosed. A painting station may include at least one painting cell in which components are coated, e.g., with a paint, that has a certain layer thickness. At least one measuring cell is provided for measuring the layer thickness of the paint, e.g., with a radiation source, a radiation detector, and a conveying path along which the components to be coated are conveyed through the painting and measuring cells. The radiation source may emit light in the visible wavelength range. | 04-28-2011 |

20100114530 | Transfer of a Component with Effect on the Safety Function from the Safety-relevant Area - An electronic module for level measurements, pressure measurements or density measurements is disclosed. In the module, a safety-relevant function is transferred into an area that is categorized as safety-uncritical. In order to prevent malfunctions, a diagnostic function is performed in the safety-critical area of the electronic module in order to check the transferred function. This diagnostic function is also checked with respect to its effectiveness during the safety-oriented operation. Suitable measures can be initiated in case an error is detected. | 05-06-2010 |
20100125427 | Field Device with Separated Memory Areas - A field device for measuring a filling level, a pressure or a density of a medium in a container includes data memory with two memory areas that are separated from one another. First data for safety-critical program modules is stored in the first memory area. Second data for safety-uncritical program modules is stored in the second memory area. The two memory areas are separated from one another. All access to these memory areas is controlled by a memory management unit. | 05-20-2010 |
20140047896 | Apparatus and method for correcting an offset - An offset determination apparatus and a method are for correcting an offset by supplying a switch-off signal outside a predefinable measuring range of time-expanded sampling values of a reflection signal, which switch-off signal can deactivate a transmitter device at least intermittently in order to generate a predefinable quiescent range within the time-expanded sampling values of the reflection signal and in that, by evaluating at least one sampling value of the time-expanded sampling values which is determined within the quiescent range, a value of an amplitude offset of the time-expanded sampling values of the reflection signal from a normal value is determined and is supplied at an output of the offset provision device. | 02-20-2014 |

20130271602 | MOTION EVENT RECOGNITION SYSTEM AND METHOD - Enables recognition of events within motion data including but not limited to motion capture data obtained from portable wireless motion capture elements such as visual markers and sensors, radio frequency identification tags and motion sensors within mobile device computer systems, or calculated based on analyzed movement associated with the same user, other user, historical user or group of users. Provides low power transmission of events. Greatly reduces storage for events such as a shot, move or swing of a player, a concussion of a player, boxer, rider or driver, or a heat stroke, hypothermia, seizure, asthma attack, epileptic attack. Events may be correlated with image(s) as captured from internal/external camera(s) or nanny cam, for example to enable saving video of the event, such as the first steps of a child, violent shaking events, sporting, military or other motion events including concussions, or falling events associated with an elderly person. | 10-17-2013 |
