    摘要: A waterfowl motion simulation device for affecting the motion of waterfowl decoys in an aquatic terrain is disclosed. The waterfowl motion simulation device includes a winding unit configured to wind and unwind a line assembly. The line assembly includes a main line with a plurality of decoy attachment appendages provided at various points along its length. The winding unit includes a motor accommodated inside a winding unit housing, and a winding implement rotatably supported outside the winding unit housing by an output shaft of the motor. A control unit electrically connected to the motor is operable to control the rotation of the winding implement to wind and unwind the line assembly by controlling the motor according to a rotational speed and timing indicated by user input received through at least one user interface. A power supply unit is removably engaged with, and electrically connected to the control unit through, a power supply interface on an exterior surface of the winding unit housing. The waterfowl motion simulation device preferably also includes a mounting assembly configured to adjustably support at least in part the power supply unit, power supply interface, winding unit, and control unit above an aquatic terrain. A method of using the waterfowl motion simulation device to affect the motion of at least one waterfowl decoy in an aquatic terrain is also described.

    摘要: A motor driven system for raising and lowering a window covering executes motor ramp trajectory speed control. The motor ramp trajectory limits acceleration of an external motor from the idle (stationary) state to full operating speed, and limits deceleration of the motor from full operating speed back to the idle state. This function reduces stresses on a continuous cord loop drive mechanism. A control system manages solar heating effects in response to sunlight entrance conditions such as system sensor outputs, external weather forecasts, and other data sources. The system automatically opens or close the window covering to increase or decrease admitted sunlight under appropriate conditions. The input interface of the control system includes a visual display and input axis, which are aligned vertically if the window covering mechanism raises and lowers the window covering, and are aligned horizontally if the window covering mechanism laterally opens and closes the window covering.

    摘要: A ventilation control system for an animal facility. The ventilation control system has a movable ventilation control member mounted in an opening of the animal facility, the ventilation control member being movable relative the opening to control the amount of air that is able to pass through the opening. The ventilation control system also has a positioning strap attached to the ventilation control member, the strap having a strap thickness. A strap drive control apparatus is configured to control the positioning of the ventilation control member at a constant control member speed.

    摘要: A tool changing system with rigidity improved belt moving mechanism includes a pedestal, a sliding base, a driving unit, a positioning belt, and a transmission belt. The sliding base is disposed on the pedestal, and reciprocatively moves along a linear direction. The driving unit is disposed on the sliding base. The positioning belt and the transmission belt are disposed on the pedestal and include a gear rack, respectively. A detouring section of the transmission belt is separated from the positioning belt, and transmissibly meshed with the driving wheel of the driving unit. When the driving wheel rotates, the detouring section is driven to continuously shift on the transmission belt, and the sliding base is simultaneously driven to slide on the pedestal along the linear direction. Thus, a combination of the positioning belt and the transmission belt achieves an improved rigidity.

    摘要: An extension/contraction mechanism in which an extension/contraction part is able to turn is provided. An extension/contraction mechanism according to one aspect of the present disclosure includes a first drive source connected to a sending/pulling part so as to be able to transmit a drive force, and a second drive source connected to the sending/pulling part and a turning part that rotatably supports the sending/pulling part so as to be able to transmit a drive force via a gear group. When a rotational speed transmitted to the sending/pulling part to rotate the sending/pulling part by the first drive source is equal to a rotational speed transmitted to the sending/pulling part to rotate the sending/pulling part by the second drive source, an extension/contraction part turns via the turning part. When the above rotational speeds are different from each other, the extension/contraction part is extended or contracted.
