摘要： A point of sale (POS) bar code scanner such as in common use in retail stores includes provision for reading bar coded redemption coupons (or other bar coded documents redeemable for value) in a manner secure from a human operator. Integration of functions between the POS scanner and the coupon reader varies with different embodiments described. Through software associated with bar code decoding logic, a comparison is made between information on a validation coupon and information on items presented for purchase, and a decision is made as to whether the redemption coupon is valid and redeemable in this transaction. In one embodiment, the bar code scanner simply receives the redemption coupon face down on the product scanner window, and integrated decode logic of the scanner identifies the bar code as belonging to a redemption coupon, then makes the comparison and validation of the coupon for the particular transaction. In some embodiments of the invention, the POS product scanner has a special beam exit window through which the scanning beam is diverted when it is signified that a redemption coupon is to be read, with a coupon reading scan pattern. After validation the coupon may be punched or otherwise cancelled, and/or sent to a secure container. Several types of securing devices are disclosed, for preventing subsequent use of redeemed coupons.

摘要： A system which is preferably employed in a laser alignment instrument produces up to five orthogonal beams from a single laser diode beam. In one embodiment the optics take advantage of the elliptical shape of the beam from a laser diode which when collimated produces a plurality of orthogonal beams by reflection off a plurality of 45.degree.-angled reflective surfaces intercepting outer portions of the beam. In one preferred embodiment a solid reflective element was four 45.degree.-angled facets to produce four beams from outer portions of a preferably non-elliptical beam, and a fifth orthogonal beam is produced by transmission of a central portion of the beam through the element. The element can be solid glass, or it can be glass or other material with a central hole.

摘要： A system preferably in the form of an accessory module corrects for tilt angles of a distance measuring laser projecting instrument. The housing of the module includes a compensating mirror mounted on a pendulum which bends with tilt angle by one-half the amount of the housing tilt, so as to reflect the outgoing beam to truly horizontal. In a preferred embodiment a fixed mirror is also included so that the distance measuring instrument can be laid or held approximately horizontally so that its generally horizontal beam is first reflected by the fixed mirror up to the pendulous compensating mirror. The distance measuring instrument preferably has an internal correction to subtract the additional optical path length induced by the use of the accessory module. This may be activated by a switch on the module or automatically when the module is attached to the distance measuring instrument.

摘要： A construction laser tool which projects a plumb beam is provided with a marking template, movable and separate from the tool's housing but securable to the housing, for transferring a point on a floor to the laser beam or, in another case, for transferring the beam to locate a point on the floor. The template has a marker such as a hole to receive a pencil, and the marker is positioned under the laser tool housing, on the vertical line of the plumb beam where the floor point of interest cannot be seen, when the plumb beam is projected at a point on the ceiling. To accurately mark the floor point, the user holds the template in place on the floor and moves the laser tool away to gain access to mark the point. The reverse procedure is used to align the plumb beam over a known point on the floor. Several arrangements involving sliding templates are disclosed.

摘要： A gas valve which is particularly useful in a laser gas fill system requiring repeated fillings includes a conduit positioned between high and low pressure gas regions. Within the conduit is a restriction, and this restriction is closed by a meltable solid material. When the valve is to be opened, heat is applied to the meltable solid material, either internally or externally, causing at least some of the material to flow and allow the passage of gas from the higher pressure region to the lower pressure region. When the pressure between the two regions has substantially equalized, or at least the pressure differential has greatly diminished, surface tension associated with the restriction in the conduit pulls the liquified material back into place to close and reseal the valve, at which point heat application is dicontinued so that the material again becomes solid. The geometry of the restriction is such that all or substantially all of the liquid material will return essentially to its original position, allowing the valve to be used in repeated on/off cycles. Also, the valve geometry and heat application are such a high pressure differential will not cause the liquified material to blow away from the valve due to high velocities.

摘要： A tool for use in establishing a precise level line or plumb line or line for alignment uses a visible laser diode for projecting the line. The tool is relatively small and compact, drives the laser diode using batteries contained in the tool, and includes tilt compensation for use on surfaces which are not level, up to about 5.degree. off level, for still delivering a truly plumb or truly horizontal beam. A manual selector device is provided for shifting the beam from a vertical orientation to a horizontal orientation when desired. Specific forms of tilt compensation apparatus are disclosed.
