摘要： A new and improved article or mail-piece conveyor system has a vacuum plenum system integrally incorporated therein which effectively withdraws ambient air ahead or downstream of the oncoming conveyed articles or mail pieces such that the oncoming conveyed articles or mail pieces will not be subjected to tip vortices and/or other disruptive aerodynamic forces. In this manner, the articles or mail pieces will not be subjected to destabilizing aerodynamic circulation, currents, downflow, downwash, or momentum forces so as not to, in turn, exhibit flutter, fluctuations, or oscillation movements. Accordingly, extremely high speed conveyance of the articles or mail pieces, within the range of, for example, two hundred inches per second (200 ips) can in fact be achieved.

摘要： An article or mail-piece conveyor system comprises a conveyor mechanism which has a substantially horizontally oriented product transportation surface upon which the articles can be conveyed in an upstanding mode as a result of the articles effectively being supported upon lower edge portions thereof, and an inclined surface against which the major or primary surface portions of each article is supported so as to permit the articles to be readily and easily conveyed by means of the horizontally oriented product transportation surface. Vacuum plenum chambers are fluidically connected to the inclined surface so as to withdraw ambient air from the article transportation path and thereby maintain the articles attracted to the inclined surface of the product transportation system, and in addition, positive air plenum chambers are also fluidically connected to the inclined surface so as to provide air to the article transportation path so as to effectively form an air bearing structure for the articles so as to facilitate the smooth and easy transportation of the articles along the transportation flow path in a relatively frictionless manner. Air discharge ports also facilitate the routing or sorting of the articles or mail pieces.

摘要： This electronic meter signalling device provides a means for converting a conventional meter or gauge into an electronic switch in which a number of electronic outputs indicative of conditions of the meter or gauge are provided. The meter signalling device comprises a capacitive coupling means used in conjunction with an indicator of the meter or gauge to form electric charge coupling paths at a number of predetermined scale conditions of the instrument. Electronic circuitry transmits a signal through each electric charge coupling path to a discriminating circuit to activate outputs indicative of the scale conditions of the instrument.

摘要： A method, computer program product and system for archiving data from an operational database. Data to be archived from the operational database may be stored either as received or transformed in a manner that allows the transformed archived data to be retrieved bit-for-bit identical to the original input received. Further, the data stored in the archive storage is read-only meaning that the data cannot be updated, deleted or modified. Further, backup copies of each of the storage units, which store the archived data, in the archive storage are created for disaster recovery purposes. Additionally, hash values are computed for each of the storage units in the archive storage which are used to detect unauthorized changes to the data stored in the storage units. In this manner, the authenticity of the data stored in the archive storage may be substantially guaranteed.

摘要： A mail article transportation and stabilization system, and a method of operating the same, for use in conjunction with a camera-based optical character recognition (OCR), bar code reader (BCR), or similar image capture scanning system, comprises a conveyor drive belt for conveying the articles, pieces, or units of mail across a platen assembly within which an optical character recognition (OCR), bar code reader (BCR), or similar image capture camera or the like is positioned and in conjunction with which there is provided a serial array of air plenums for effectively creating an air bearing or air layer upon which the conveyor belt and the articles, pieces, or units of mail are conveyed in a relatively frictionless manner. The incoming pieces, articles, or units of mail are therefore able to be conveyed in a smooth, jitter-free, and stabilized manner whereby scanning, imaging, and reading of the address information contained upon the articles, pieces, or units of mail, as the articles, pieces or units of mail are conveyed past the camera view port, are able to be accurately, clearly, and completely achieved.

摘要： The present invention provides a new, high-performance system and method for updating databases or other data compilations with changes entered in a source database or data compilation. Updates are preprocessed to reduce system update demands while increasing update flexibility for remote processing sites. Data update records are captured or collected and extracted into one or more channel or other criterion-specific batches. Transaction boundaries within a batch are collapsed, and the records coalesced into a package comprising a sequence of updates that reflect the cumulated impact of the extracted records. In a preferred embodiment, the batched records are sorted by extracted sort key entries and the package is converted to the physical format of respective targets. The created update package is, therefore, organized and physically formatted in correspondence with the target database. The update package is then directly applied to the target database without resort to the traditional front door processing through the local database manager. The processing typically required in database update replication is, thereby, avoided and the update process significantly streamlined. The update packages may be moved to targets by a variety of methods. The packages can be conveyed across network or Internet connections or between disconnected computers. The packages may be stored in computer readable media such as disks or CD ROMs, for example, from which the packages may be accessed by target systems. The update packages may also be made available through modems to field users or clients to allow fiexible update scheduling. The invention results in a high performance, database update system and method that significantly reduces system update burdens while increasing update flexibility and minimizing impacts from failures during updating. Updates are performed in significantly less time with a system and method that requires little administrative oversight and minimal personnel training.

摘要： A system allows a workstation to utilize the resources of another workstation without requiring the presence of an operator on the second workstation. These resources can include memory and processor cycles, and I/O devices including disk, diskette, printer, and communications ports. When an operator is present at the second workstations, resources in excess of those required at the second workstation can also be used by a first workstation. Messages are displayed on the display of the second workstation warning that resources there are being utilized to prevent inadvertent powering off of the second workstation. In addition, jobs may be automatically started at the second workstation when the workstation is powered on, without requiring any additional action or logging on by the operator.

摘要： The present invention is directed to a synchronous I/O interface buss system. The system includes a master-buss controller that generates a system timing signal. The master-buss controller transmits a time-division multiplexed (TDM) slave output data signal and receives a time-division multiplexed (TDM) slave input data signal. The TDM slave output data signal and the TDM slave input data signal are synchronous relative to the system timing signal. A buss is coupled to the master-buss controller. The buss propagates the system timing signal, the TDM slave output data signal, and the TDM slave input data signal. At least one slave device is coupled to the buss. The at least one slave device is in synchronicity with the system timing signal. The at least one slave device demultiplexed slave device output data in device-ready format from the TDM slave output data signal during a predetermined output data signal time slot. The at least one slave device also multiplexes slave input data in file-ready format into the TDM slave input data signal during a predetermined input data signal time slot.
