    摘要: The present invention relates to sensors for guiding a trailer while backing that can easily be installed or removed, and in particular to trailering system sensors that can be utilized for both measuring the angle formed by the vehicle and a coupled trailer (i.e., the angle formed by the centerline of the vehicle intersecting the centerline of the trailer) and the direction and/or distance to back up the vehicle during coupling. The present invention is a means and a method for sensing both the hitch angle during towing maneuvers and the direction and/or distance to the trailer to assist a driver to couple a vehicle and trailer together.

    摘要: The present invention is a guidance computing system used by the driver of a vehicle towing a trailer while backing-up that rapidly calculates and predicts the direction in which the tow vehicle and trailer will become generally in-line for a given position of the steering wheel, thereby enabling the use of slower, lower cost microcomputers. This is accomplished by using a predetermined table, based on a baseline trailer of known length, having a measure of turning as one of its axes; such an axis is necessary to facilitate ratiometric scaling to convert table values to correspond to any length trailer. In a specially equipped vehicle incorporating servomechanisms to enable the vehicle to steer itself, the driver indicates the direction desired for the trailer to travel. The present invention also predicts left and right path limits for controlling the direction of the trailer when maneuvering complex paths.

    摘要: The present invention is a foldable trailer that drops close to the ground and shortens in length when folded such that it can be parked below the vehicle that towed it. In this way, the trailer and vehicle can both be parked in the same, single space. During towing, the trailer is locked into its opened towing position and the weight of the device being towed helps to maintain the opened position. The trailer can be folded into its closed parking position while still hitched to the vehicle by which it was towed to facilitate moving it into its parking space before being unhitched. Once unhitched, the trailer will be parallel to and close to the ground such that the vehicle can then park above it. By sharing the same place, parking fees are reduced and preparation time (time spent in parking arrangements) is shortened.

    摘要: One of the simplest forms of data storage devices is the diode array storage device. However, a problem with diode array storage devices is that as the size of the array increases, the number of non-addressed diodes connected between a given selected row or column of the array and the non-addressed columns or rows of the array, respectively, also becomes very large. While the leakage current through any one non-addressed diode on the selected row or column will have little impact on the operation of the device, the cumulative leakage through multiple thousands of non-addressed diodes can become significant. This aggregate leakage current can become great enough that the output voltage can be shifted such that the threshold for distinguishing between a one state and a zero state of the addressed diode location can become obscured and can result in a misreading of the addressed diode location. The present invention is a means to manage the leakage currents in a diode array storage device. This is accomplished by actively changing the forward voltage of the diodes in the storage array such that a diode connected to the selected row line but that is not connected to the selected column line is in its high impedance state and a diode connected to the selected column line but that is not connected to the selected row line is in its high impedance state; only a diode that is connected to both the selected row line and the selected column line will switch to its low impedance state. The present invention is an enhancement to all types of arrays of diodes or arrays of other nonlinear conducting elements including: storage devices, programmable logic devices, display arrays, sensor arrays, and many others.

    摘要: As advances continue to be made in the area of semiconductor memory devices, high capacity and low cost will be increasingly important. In particular, it will be necessary to create memory devices for which the testing of the device must be minimized in order to minimize costs. Current memory manufacturing costs are significant and will grow as the capacity of the devices grows—the higher the memory's capacity, the more storage locations that must be tested, and the longer the testing operation will take. The cost of the testing can be calculated by dividing the amortized cost of the test equipment by the number of devices tested. As memory devices enter the Gigabyte range and larger, the number of devices that can be tested by a given piece of test equipment will go down. As a result, the cost per unit attributable to testing will rise. The present invention is a means and a method for accessing streams of data stored within a memory device so as to minimize the cost of device testing and thereby the cost of the device itself. By incorporating error-correcting bits in the data stream, the individual data bits need not be tested. Then, by accessing the memory locations so as to avoid having error correcting techniques fail due to common memory device faults, testing costs can be significantly reduced while maintaining high device yields. A sequential access of the memory device will access data bits in a somewhat diagonal path across the two-dimensional array. The key to the present invention is that the sequential data stream stored in the device is stored such that sequential access of that data will not dwell on a single (or a small number of) row or column line. In a three or more dimensional array, the sequential data stream stored in the device is stored such that sequential access of that data will not dwell on a single value in a given dimension for which bulk errors are considered likely.
