摘要： This system for generating message transformation and validation software uses interface definition documents as inputs. An interface definition consists of an internally consistent set of message definitions, data dictionary entries, transformation rules, and validation rules. A user-friendly graphical user interface provides the requirements engineer or other user with the ability to specify these documents. This graphical user interface is a structured table and rules editor that allows the requirements engineer to enter and validate interface definitions to ensure that the definitions meet certain predetermined requirements. The generation system takes the interface definition documents as input and generates various software artifacts to transform and validate messages. W3C XML schemas are generated from an interface definition for assistance with code development, for use as standards-compliant interface definition that can be reused and composed with other schemas, and for validating messages. Extensible Stylesheet Language Transform files are generated from an interface definition to transform and validate messages. These generated software artifacts for message transformation and validation may then be used to implement message-processing systems. One example where this software was deployed is a wireless or local number portability service bureau that permits portability requests to pass from one telecommunications entity to another. The graphical user interface also enables the user to compare interface definitions, generate schema artifacts, generate transformation and validation artifacts, generate test cases, generate message indices, and generate documentation for distribution and review (formats include Microsoft Word, rich-text format, and HTML). Preexisting requirements documents may be converted for use in the present system by parsing and translating the preexisting documents into the interface definition documents. After this conversion process, information that could not be parsed and translated is referred to the requirements engineer or other user, who reenters the information using the structured table and rules editor.

摘要： A catcher is provided. The catcher includes a body made from a porous material with a first portion of the body defining a delimiting edge and a second portion of the body defining an area recessed from the delimiting edge. A third portion of the body defines an oblique surface beginning at a location removed from the delimiting edge and ending at the delimiting edge. The area recessed from the delimiting edge includes a surface beginning at the delimiting edge and ending at a location removed from the edge. The surface of the recessed area can be substantially flat and/or include a curved portion.

摘要： A clamping device for clamping a punch block to a jaw of a punch press assembly where the action of clamping does not disturb the alignment between the punch block and the die. The device includes a pair of cams residing in a stacked relationship with each of the cams having a tapered aperture therethrough. A bolt passes through the tapered apertures of both cams and through a bore in the jaw to engage a threaded orifice in the punch block. Each of the cams has a generally cylindrical cam surface with a flat formed therein. Once the punch block is properly aligned with the die, the bolt is lightly tightened with the flats of the two cams in planar abutment with one another such that the cylindrical axes of the cams are separated by a first distance. The cams are then rotated with the lower one of the cams rolling on the surface of the jaw. Rotation of the cams moves the flats out of abutment with one another such that the axes of the cams become separated by a second distance which is greater than the first distance causing the upper one of the cams to bear against the head of the bolt thereby placing the bolt in tension while imparting no substantial force perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the bolt.

摘要翻译： 一种夹紧装置，用于将冲压块夹持到冲压组件的夹爪上，其中夹紧的作用不会妨碍冲模块和模具之间的对准。 该装置包括与每个凸轮成堆叠关系的一对凸轮，其具有穿过其的锥形孔。 螺栓穿过两个凸轮的锥形孔并穿过钳口中的孔，以与穿孔块中的螺纹孔接合。 每个凸轮具有形成在其中的平坦的大致圆柱形的凸轮表面。 一旦冲模块与模具正确对准，则螺栓被两个凸轮的平面轻轻地紧固，这两个凸轮的平面彼此平坦地邻接，使得凸轮的圆柱轴线分开第一距离。 然后，凸轮随着在颚的表面上滚动的下凸轮旋转。 凸轮的旋转使平面彼此抵接，使得凸轮的轴线分开第二距离，第二距离大于第一距离，从而使上部凸轮抵靠在螺栓的头部上，从而放置 螺栓处于张紧状态，同时不产生垂直于螺栓的纵向轴线的相当大的力。

摘要： Equipment (10) for packaging a plurality of articles (1) has a rotatable drum (12) for supporting the articles (1) in one of a plurality of spaced through openings (14) along the circumferential portion (22) of the drum (12). First and second sources (30,32) of first and second webs (16,18), respectively, supplies the webs sequentially under continuous tension towards one of the plurality of through openings (14). By passing the webs (16,18) through respective serpentine paths (28,30) prior to delivery to one of the plurality of through openings (14) provide the desired continuous tensioning level on the webs (16,18). An article dispenser (40) is provided to dispense one of the plurality of articles (1) into one of the plurality of through openings (14) when one of the first and second webs (16,18) generally covers the through opening (14) forming a seat for article 1. Thereafter, and in sequence, the other of the first and second webs (16,18) overwraps the article (1) seated in the through opening (14). A sealing means (46) is provided to sea the webs (16,18) about the article forming a packaged article. A punch means (150) cooperating with the drum (12) is employed to relieve the packaged articles in sequence from the through openings (14).

摘要： A web (14) of material such as photographic film is supplied continuously from a stock roll (16) into an infeed vacuum box (24) from which the web passes into an intermittently operated perforator apparatus (30) through which the web is drawn intermittently by a high performance vacuum drum (32) which feeds the web into an outfeed vacuum box (34) from which the web passes continuously to a rewind stock roll (44) or to other intermittently operated processing apparatus. Various patterns of widely spaced perforations and leader/trailer sections may be provided in the stationary web, which moves at high web speeds and accelerations between operations of the perforator apparatus.

摘要： Non-contact air film conveyors are suited for conveying elongated strips (46) of web material such as photographic film and include a track plate (12) having gas flow apertures (20,24; 72,74) extending through its thickness at angles to the surface of the track plate (.alpha.,.alpha.') and to the direction of movement of the strips (.beta.,.beta.', .gamma.). By directing air flow through some apertures (72,74) counter to the direction of movement, speed and acceleration control is achieved independent of the support given to the strips by air flow through other apertures (20,24). Baffles (28-36) and curved side walls (70,96) direct air back onto the film to flatten it during movement.
