Linear Ramp with Minimal Dead Time Page Views: 101 Machinery/Equipment
Newton Ball, Hemet, CA US Votes: 5 10/11/2008

The circuit shown, charges a capacitor with a constant current, but, rather than discharging the capacitor, as in prior art, which takes a high current and a finite time, the polarity of the capacitor connection is reversed by a pair of make-before-break form-C high speed electronic switches. The speed of the falling edge of the ramp, at the rail-to-rail output of the high speed opamp [A], is limited only by slew rate. The capacitor, in

Grail Pneumatic Two-Stroke Engine Page Views: 15,544 Transportation
Matthew Riley, Wichita, KS US Votes: 6 09/10/2008

White Paper Grail Pneumatic Two-Stroke Engine This is a proposed clean emissions pneumatic two-stroke engine that does not have normal Two-Stroke cross contamination of oil and fuel (oil and fuel are not mixed). Intake occurs when piston moves up by creating a vacuum under Piston Check Valve (6) (closed) and Piston (8) within the Engine Crankcase (16), (One-way) Intake Reed Valve & Throttle Plate (9) (IRVTP 9 opens) allow outside ambient air to enter Engine Crankcase (16). Simultaneously

MEMENTO Memory LifeBook Page Views: 410 Medical
Peter Sin, Singapore,   SG Votes: 23 08/11/2008

To live without a soul is the literal meaning of the latin word "Dementia". And that is precisely what is happening in the shoes of dementia sufferers who are inevitably faced with the circumstances of not only losing their memory but also other cognitive abilities; and the decline interferes with daily, social and occupational functioning, which leads to personality deterioration. Difficulties with remembering things, missing appointments, misplacing things, and often finding yourselves in situations wondering "What

Mobile File, Identification and Security System Page Views: 301 Safety and Security
robert brown jr, warner robins, GA US Votes: 3 07/18/2008

Problem and Potential Benefits: Domestic-home grown and foreign terrorists have surfaced throughout the world, thus making security gate check points, highways, homes or work environments vulnerable or less safe. Existing security systems are basically limited to the use of cameras and children and the elderly are routinely left home alone without safeguards which will document, track or electronically record who and when a visitor arrives at the door. Nationwide-worldwide, military and law enforcement/security officers are

Active Filter(s) Page Views: 953 Machinery/Equipment
Roberto Cavazzoni, Gualtieri RE, NA IT Votes: 10 07/08/2008

INTRODUCTION: As known to persons skilled in electronics, filters have an essential role. In fact, starting from a frequency signal, it's necessary to process it and obtain another signal having phase and amplitude according to a predetermined frequency of interest. In the telecommunications field particulary, where high amplification is necessary, a system can become critical if the filtering operation is not adeguate, and the useful information can be lost. Analog active filters have had several problems
