The motor error parameter data may be accessed from the embedded memory of the drive motor by a programmed motor controller for use in controlling the drive motor. Also, the motor error parameter data may be embedded in the drive motor by the steps of: controlling the motor through at least one predetermined drive pattern; sensing motor rotation during the drive pattern and generating signals representative thereof; deriving error parameter data of the drive motor from the generated signals; programming a memory with the derived error parameter data; and embedding the memory in the drive motor.

摘要： A braking assembly for an in-line roller skate is disclosed. The braking assembly comprises a foot operatable actuation means and at least one rod having a non-circular cross-section and essentially extending in parallel to the moving direction of the in-line roller skate. Upon operating of said foot operatable actuation means, the rod is turned about its longitudinal axis and thereby applying an axial braking force to the sidewall of at least one of the rollers.

摘要： Apparatus and method for determining a deviation of a body from a horizontal plane is disclosed. Attached to the body is a curved surface with a liquid conducting material moving freely thereon. Associated with the surface are electrodes at preselected positions and a surface at ground potential. As the liquid conducting material moves on the inner portion of the curved surface, the liquid conducting material provides a conducting path between the electrodes providing a resulting electrical activity such as a current flow. The electrical coupling of the electrodes is identified and the electrode(s) so activated identify a position on the curved surface and consequently when the curvature of the surface is known, a deviation from the horizontal plane can be determined. The position of the electrodes and the electrical structure thereof provide suitable signals for use by digital signal apparatus.
