Methods of and systems for illuminating objects using planar laser illumination beams having substantially-planar spatial distribution characteristics that extend through the field of view (FOV) of image formation and detection modules employed in such systems. Each planar laser illumination beam is produced from a planar laser illumination beam array (PLIA) comprising an plurality of planar laser illumination modules (PLIMs). Each PLIM comprises a visible laser diode (VLD, a focusing lens, and a cylindrical optical element arranged therewith. The individual planar laser illumination beam components produced from each PLIM are optically combined to produce a composite substantially planar laser illumination beam having substantially uniform power density characteristics over the entire spatial extend thereof and thus the working range of the system. Preferably, each planar laser illumination beam component is focused so that the minimum beam width thereof occurs at a point or plane which is the farthest or maximum object distance at which the system is designed to acquire images, thereby compensating for decreases in the power density of the incident planar laser illumination beam due to the fact that the width of the planar laser illumination beam increases in length for increasing object distances away from the imaging optics. By virtue of the present invention, it is now possible to use both VLDs and high-speed CCD-type image detectors in conveyor, hand-held and hold-under type scanning applications alike, enjoying the advantages and benefits that each such technology has to offer, while avoiding the shortcomings and drawbacks hitherto associated therewith.

The present invention relates to a process of creating semi-moist pet food, and primarily dog food and dog treats, that is formed into a given shape through cooking the ingredients of the mixture contained in the dog food in an extruder and thereafter immediately transforming the mixture to a forming machine wherein the pet food is formed into a multiplicity of given shapes so that the dog food is produced as a final formed dog food or dog treat in an economically viable process. The given shape of the dog food is semi-moist and will retain its shape so that it can be broken into smaller pieces to be fed to a dog at selected times.

A stab type fuze mechanism, such as the 30 mm M759 fuze mechanism, which utilizes a generally horse shoe shaped configuration anti-setback spin clip initially lodged in a grove within the body of a target sensing probe, but extending partially therefrom, which extending part rests against a ledge within the aluminum o-give—located rearward from the target sensing probe; thereby preventing the target sensing probe from moving rearward within the fuze during firing and setback. After firing, with the onset of spin, the anti-setback spin clip will open, expanding away from, out of, and clear of the grove and into a cylindrical channel in which the target sensing probe is lodged. Due to a thinned area at the apex of the clip, the expansion of the anti-setback spin clip will be a plastic deformation and the clip will remain expanded. With the expanded clip entirely clear of the grove—when the cartridge impacts its target, either a hard target, or a soft target, the obstructed forward travel of the cartridge will force the target sensing probe rearwards to impact the firing pin located immediately rearward thereof; thereby, forcing the firing pin rearward and initiating the firing train of the fuze, and subsequently, igniting the secondary explosive within the cartridge to cause detonate thereof.

A setback switch device is provided which, upon launch, can arm an explosive or pyrotechnic device for military gun launched applications. An included bridgewire shunt feature can also prevent the unintended arming, or accidental arming by a stray voltage before any launch is undertaken, of such explosive or pyrotechnic device.

Example embodiments provide various techniques for creating a test bed for testing failover and failback operations. In an example, data is stored on a primary storage system, while a backup copy of the data is stored on a secondary storage system. A test bed may be created by replicating the data on the primary storage system and replicating the backup copy on the secondary storage system. The replicated copies of the data and the backup copy, as well as a process used to backup the data, comprise the test bed, which may be used to test the failover and failback operations.

An inkjet printer includes a plastic platen and a structural member extending upward from the base of the printer. The printing surface is supported by the upper surface of the structural member. This surface is held flat to within very tight tolerances. The bottom of the platen printing surface is retained against this surface so that it conforms to the shape of this surface structural member to create a substantially flat printing surface.

A composition is provided of inorganic polyphosphates which will form a clear, stable solution suitable for injection into meat products. The composition comprises sodium tripolyphosphate and a long-chain glassy phosphate in sufficient quantities to provide 92 to 85 parts by weight sodium tripolyphosphate and 8 to 15 parts by weight of long-chain glassy phosphate, said long-chain glassy phosphate having a degree of polymerization of about 20 to 30, an average mole ratio of (Na.sub.2 O+H.sub.2 O)/P.sub.2 O.sub.5 below about 1.067, and preferably possessing terminal groups on the polyphosphate chain having no less than about 75% OH with the remainder being ONa.
摘要:
A computer program product corrects a detonation time from a ballistic table, based on the actual velocity of a projectile measured upon exit of the projectile from the gun tube. The computer program product transfers a 16-bit data stream, through a 16-bit to an 8-bit encoder, to a fuze controller implemented as an 8-bit platform, to provide precise timing adjustment to a fuze controller. The computer program product significantly improves the accuracy of detonation times for air burst mode. The encoder calculates the absolute truncated, square rooted, X, of the input time delay number, as well as the error correction number, Y. The encoder then transmits both numbers X and Y as an 8-bit data stream, optionally along with the parity data to the fuze controller.
摘要:
A target discrimination system monitors an acceleration switch signal to determine an impact of a projectile on a target. During a sample period of approximately 1.0 milliseconds, the system repeatedly samples the acceleration switch signal, compares the sampled acceleration sensor signal with a reference voltage, and sets a comparator data output to logic one if the sampled signal exceeds the reference voltage. Otherwise, the comparator data output is set to logic zero. The system counts the instances that comparator data output equals logic one during the sample period and executes a selected delay. The selected delay is approximately 50 milliseconds if the counted number of instances exceeds a predetermined threshold of approximately two-thirds of the samples and, otherwise, the selected delay is approximately 10 milliseconds. The selective delay enables target discrimination and selective detonation of a projectile.
