20090166151 | COIN DISCRIMINATION APPARATUS AND METHOD - A coin discrimination apparatus and method is provided. Coins, preferably after cleaning, e.g. using a trommel, are singulated by a coin pickup assembly configured to reduce jamming. A coin rail assists in providing separation between coins as they travel past a sensor. The sensor provides an oscillating electromagnetic field generated on a single sensing core. The oscillating electromagnetic field is composed of one or more frequency components. The electromagnetic field interacts with a coin, and these interactions are monitored and used to classify the coin according to its physical properties. All frequency components of the magnetic field are phase-locked to a common reference frequency. The phase relationships between the various frequencies are fixed, and the interaction of each frequency component with the coin can be accurately determined without the need for complicated electrical filters. In one embodiment, a sensor having a core, preferably ferrite, which is curved, such as in a U-shape or in the shape of a section of a torus, and defining a gap, is provided with a wire winding for excitation and/or detection. The sensor can be used for simultaneously obtaining data relating to two or more parameters of a coin or other object, such as size and conductivity of the object. Two or more frequencies can be used to sense core and/or cladding properties. Objects recognized as acceptable coins, using the sensor data, are diverted by a controllable deflecting door, to tubes for delivery to acceptable coin bins. | 07-02-2009 |

20090306799 | Mechatronic system and method for positioning bolts in order to provide a frame with a reconfigurable surface using memory effect actuators - The invention relates to a reconfigurable computer-controlled system based on the positioning of bolts. A greater density of bolts per unit area increases the variety of figures or shapes that can be defined by a frame or tool used in the industry, such that it is no longer necessary to construct rigid surfaces with each change made to the shape of the product to be produced or surface to be formed. The use of the memory effect material as an actuator in the reconfigurability mechanism is the key to the success of the reconfigurable system and the control system owing to the permissibility of small bolts which can be adapted to standard sizes and shapes. The invention also relates to the application of the mechatronic system which uses the positioning of bolts for the reconfigurability of surfaces in order to manufacture and shape materials. | 12-10-2009 |

20110057447 | FLOATING DEVICE FOR HARNESSING SWELL ENERGY BY LATERAL OVERFLOW - Floating device for harnessing swell energy by lateral overflow, said device being formed by hulls which converge in plan view and have a variable freeboard between which the waves propagate. The convergence produces a gradual increase in the height of the wave as it propagates between the hulls, which, together with the reduction in the freeboard from a particular section of said hulls, gives rise to the lateral overflow of the mass of water of the crest over their rails, which is collected in tanks which are at different heights (in accordance with the reduction in the freeboard) and are connected to the corresponding turbines. The angle of convergence between the hulls can be varied in order to be adapted to the sea state. The harnessing system is supplemented with a connecting closure ramp between the sterns of the hulls in order to collect the water which has previously not managed to overflow the structure. | 03-10-2011 |

The metal pads are vertically aligned and the placement of the openings in each metal pad is such that the openings are laterally offset and substantially do not directly overlie or underlie one another. As seen in a top-down view, the through-silicon via etch may “see” a metal etch stop that extends continuously across the width of the via, although different portions of the etch stop may be distributed on different vertical levels due to the presence of openings in the metal pads. The openings in the metal pads facilitate integrated circuit fabrication their respective levels and the aggregate structure formed by the metal pads provides an effective etch stop for the through-silicon via etch. | 09-18-2014 |

20090028774 | CARBONATOR AND METHOD FOR MAKING CALCIUM CARBONATE - The present invention provides a method for making precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) which compensates for the slow reaction time of carbonation in a manner which reduces or eliminates the undesirable use and expense of added equipment and processes of previously known methods. The method of the invention involves the generation of multiple streams (preferably at least twenty-five streams) of carbon dioxide which are co-currently introduced to a flow of calcium hydroxide slurry (lime milk). By use of multiple gas streams an intimate mixing of carbon dioxide with the slurry is achieved which compensates for the slow reaction time of carbonation while reducing or eliminating the need for equipment and processes related to recycling, batch operation, serial operation, and long reactor length. An additional benefit of using multiple gas streams in co-current flow is a lower concentration gradient of PCC formed therein facilitating the formation of smaller particles. Furthermore, during the generation of multiple streams of carbon dioxide, the method of the present invention generates streams of carbon dioxide bubbles having a small diameter size which cumulatively contribute to the aforementioned benefits of the invention resulting from the intimate mixing of carbon dioxide and calcium hydroxide slurry. | 01-29-2009 |
