    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention provide for the rapid reignition of a high intensity discharge lamp. In one embodiment of the invention, an apparatus for a fast reigntion of a high intensity discharge lamp is disclosed. The apparatus is comprised of a ballast operatively coupled to the lamp that is configured to receive power from a power supply. The apparatus is also comprised of a timer circuit that enters a timing phase and produces a quantum of timing information when the lamp ceases receiving power from the power supply. This timer circuit does not require external power during the timing phase. The apparatus is additionally comprised of a control circuit that receives the timing information and permits the ballast to reignite the lamp based on the information.

    摘要: An electronic ballast operates a gaseous discharge lamp. The electronic ballast includes a filter circuit for removing noise from an electrical power signal. The power factor of the filtered power signal is adjusted by a power factor correction circuit. The power factor correction circuit includes a programmable inductor circuit having a plurality of selectable inductance values for varying the amount of power factor adjustment to accommodate operation of different lamp types and/or different lamp wattages. A power supply circuit converts electrical power received from the filtered power signal to provide low level power for operating the electronic ballast. An output circuit receives the corrected power signal produced by the power factor correction circuit and produces an electrical signal to ignite and operate the discharge lamp. The output circuit includes an ignition circuit for producing an oscillating voltage signal to ignite the lamp, and an operating circuit produces an oscillating current signal which operates the discharge lamp after ignition. A control circuit controls the operation of the electronic ballast. A current monitor is used to determine when the lamp is ignited. The ability of the electronic ballast to accommodate different lamps is enhanced by providing the ignition circuit with a programmable inductor circuit to oscillate the voltage signal at different frequencies. A similar effect is achieved by providing the operating circuit with a programmable resistor circuit having a plurality of programmable resistance values.

    摘要: A device for picking up a top layer of limp sheet material from a lay-up of sheet material includes a head assembly including a pair of rollers between which the top layer is retainably gripped and a double-acting cylinder for lifting the head assembly, with the top layer held thereby, to an elevated condition above the remainder of the lay-up. The device compensates for the reduction in the height of the lay-up as the layers are singularly picked up from the layer and includes a controller for automatically controlling the sequencing of operations of the device.
