摘要:
In a system and a method for detecting a number of articles in a placement region of a load carrier in an article storage, the load carrier is provisioned in an analysis region, and an image of the placement region of the load carrier is captured by an image capturing system and transmitted to a data processing unit, whereupon the image is evaluated by an algorithm for object recognition, in order to recognize the articles arranged in the placement region of the load carrier as objects and to ascertain the number of articles in the placement region of the load carrier.

A fragment counting and control system, consisting of mechanical and electronic components such as a fragment counting execution mechanism, a sensor platform, various sensors, a signal counting and processing instrument, a timer, a motor driver and the like. A fragment falls onto the sensor platform from the outlet of the fragment counting execution mechanism, such that the sensor on the sensor platform generates a signal; the signal is transmitted to the signal counting and processing instrument; the signal counting and processing instrument processes the signal and compares the processed signal with a preset value; the processing instrument transmits a control signal to the timer and the motor driver according to the ratio; the timer controls the motor driver to start and stop; the motor driver processes the processing instrument signal, and transmits a driver signal to the motor; and the motor changes rotation according to the driver signal so as to drive a vertical shaft to change rotation, thus controlling the frequency of falling fragments.

An apparatus for dispensing discrete items into a multiplicity of containers such that each of the multiplicity of containers contains at least a predetermined number of items, the apparatus comprising: a conveyor for transporting items from a feeder to a location from which the items fall into the container; a counting mechanism for counting a number of items that have fallen off the conveyor into the container during operation of the conveyor and due to inertial forces after the operation; an actuator for operating or stopping the conveyor in accordance with control commands; and a computing platform for receiving a count from the counting mechanism and generating the control commands to be provided to the actuator.
摘要:
A surgical sponge detection system includes a device for automatically counting soiled surgical sponges which includes a reader which scans each sponge entered and determines sponge type from a tag affixed to each sponge and a control unit which processes data received from reader contained within sponges entered. The reader includes a non-optical scanner means which can read an indicating means on the sponges even when the indicating means is covered with blood or other body fluids.

摘要:
A surgical sponge detection system includes a plurality of surgical sponges (2) having radio frequency identification tags (1) securely attached thereto and a non-optical hand-held reader (40) for detecting the sponges by detecting the tags (1). Also disclosed is a device (30) for automatically counting, weighing, and calculating blood loss contained within, soiled surgical sponges (2) which includes a cabinet with an opening (3) at the top through which sponges (2) are deposited, a reader (6) which scans each sponge (2) entered and determines sponge type from a tag (1) affixed to each sponge (2), and a disposable bag (8) into which the sponges (2) are deposited. The disposable bag (8) is removably mounted to a weighing scale (10); there is also a rear door (9) from which the disposable bag (8) can be easily removed, a rechargeable battery (11), a shelf (12) for unused disposable bag storage, a control unit (4) which processes data received from reader (6) and scale (10) and instantaneously calculates total weight of liquid contained within sponges entered, a display panel (5) continuously displays the number and type of sponges entered during a given procedure as well as the total weight of liquids retained in those sponges. There is a means for automatically determining the weight of the sponges when dry which includes a non-optical scanner means (6) which can read an indicating means (1) on the sponges (2) even when the indicating means (1) is covered with blood or other body fluids.
摘要:
An egg counter for counting eggs transferred by an egg collection conveyor has an infrared light receiving element row, a first infrared light emitting element row placed at one side section of the infrared light receiving element row, a second infrared ray emitting element row placed at the other side section of the infrared light receiving element row, and a control means for processing reflection infrared light received by the infrared light receiving element row. The infrared light emitting element rows and the infrared light receiving element row are placed such that infrared light emitted from each of the first and second infrared light emitting element rows is reflected at the surface of an egg passing directly below the infrared light receiving element row and then the reflected infrared light is received by the infrared light receiving element row. The control means measures the intensity of the reflected infrared light to detect a peak value of the light intensity and then counts eggs based on two peak values of the light intensity relative to the first and second infrared light emitting element rows.
摘要:
A counting system is for counting the number of persons passing a monitor line set in the width direction of a path, and has a laser for irradiating the monitor line with a slit ray, and an image capturing apparatus for photographing an area including the monitor line. In the image capturing apparatus, one-dimensional data indicative of a position in which the slit ray is interrupted on the monitor line is generated from an image obtained by the photographing. On the basis of the one-dimensional data, the number of passing persons is counted. By counting the number of passing persons with the one-dimensional data, a very light computation load for the counting can be achieved.
摘要:
Printed products, such as newspapers are fed past a counting station arranged in imbricated fashion, preferably folded edges passing downstream first. A high intensity light source is arranged so that its light beams are oriented at an angle which, while illuminating upper surfaces of the newspapers, causes the forward folded edges to cast a shadow upon the upper surface of a downstream newspaper that the forward edge of the newspaper creating the shadow rests upon. An image sensing device creates an image of a given region which includes the leading edge of the newspaper creating the shadow. This image is compared with stored criteria to determine if the nullshadownull is due to a leading edge of a newspaper and to thereby discriminate a newspaper leading edge from other spurious conditions which, although they may create a nullshadownull, fail to meet the criteria of a leading edge of a newspaper.
摘要:
A source (1) is equipped with a conveying device (4) for discharging the particles (2, 2a) at adjustable rates per unit time. A crystal (16), formed from doped particles, is withdrawn from the melting crucible (13) at a predetermined rate per unit time. So that the control process can be conducted smoothly over prolonged periods of time with precise doping, the particles (2, 2a) are fed single file to the melting crucible (13) and counted by at least one sensor (21, 22). The sequence of count pulses is sent to a counter (25) and compared there with a corresponding sequence of reference input pulses. The comparison signal formed from the count pulses and the reference input pulses is used, in accordance with its sign, as a control signal for adjusting the amount of particles being discharged per unit time from source (1) to correspond to the reference value.
