    摘要: The rate of impact between the peening elements and an internal surface of a hollow part is a function of the vibration frequency, and there is a cut-off frequency at which a hollow part can vibrate and induce repeated impact between its internal surface and the peening elements because the rate of impact becomes erratic and loses its cyclical nature as the vibration frequency deviates from the cut-off frequency. The present invention provides a method for determining the cut-off frequency at which a hollow part can vibrate and maintain the repetitive nature of the impact between its internal surface and the peening elements. Such a method requires a peening element speed limit ratio, which is the ratio of the velocity of the hollow part compared to the velocity of the peening element above which the rate of impact begins to become erratic and lose its cyclical nature. The present invention, therefore, teaches a method of determining the peening element speed limit ratio.

    摘要: The present invention is a photo-acoustic leak detection system that detects whether gas is leaking from a component. The system includes multiple beams wherein one beam is not absorbed by the gas and is used as a baseline measurement, while another beam absorbs the gas and emits an increased signal. Upon contact with the gas, an acoustic sensor senses the reaction or lack thereof between the gas and the beams, thereby allowing a signal processor to receive the respective alternating sensor signals after which the processor calculates the difference between the first and second signals to determine whether a leak exists. The photo-acoustic leak detection system also includes a beam combining means which forces the multiple beams to enter an acousto-optic cell at the same location. The acousto-optic cell, in turn, which is controlled by a signal controlling apparatus, sequentially and alternately diffracts the multiple beams at the same predetermined angle. Use of an acousto-optic cell removes the limitations inherent with mechanical parts, which, in turn, increases the sensitivity of the photo-acoustic leak detection system.

    摘要: Power distribution is managed in an elevator system including an elevator hoist motor (12), a primary power supply (20), and—an energy storage system (32). A predicted usage pattern for the hoist motor is established based on past hoist motor power demand in the elevator system or in similar elevator systems in similar buildings. A target storage state for the energy storage system is then set based on the predicted usage pattern. Power exchanged between the hoist motor, the primary power supply, and the energy storage system is controlled to address power demand of the hoist motor and to maintain the storage state of the energy storage system at about the target storage state.

    摘要: An elevator load bearing member (30) monitoring device includes a controller (42) that applies a selected electrical signal to tension members (32) of the load bearing member (30). In one example, connectors (40) are associated with ends of the load bearing member (30) to establish an electrical interface between the controller (42) and the tension members (32). The connectors (40) facilitate establishing electrical circuit loops along the tension members (32) such that only non-adjacent tension members are energized at a selected time. A variety of circuit configurations are disclosed. The applied electrical signal in one example has a potential that is negative compared to a ground potential of a hoistway in which the elevator belt is used. In another example, the electrical signal comprises a plurality of pulses and has a duty cycle that is on the order of about one percent.

    摘要: A system (10) manages power from a secondary power (30) source to supply power to elevator and building systems (18) after failure of a primary power source (20). An available power monitor provides a measure or estimate (such as state-of-charge) of the power available from the secondary power source. A demand monitoring system (46) generates a signal related to passenger demand for each elevator in the elevator system. A controller (34) then prioritizes allocation of power from the secondary power source to the elevator and building systems based on the available power from the secondary power source and the passenger demand in the elevator system.
