摘要:
This document describes techniques and apparatuses including a solder joint damage-prevention mode for a computing device. In general, the computing device may enter the solder joint damage-prevention mode to transfer heat to solder joints and prevent failure mechanisms such as fracture, creep, and/or fatigue. The solder joint damage-prevention mode may rely upon one or more operations, including identifying a state of the computing device in or following which damage to the solder joints has an increased likelihood and, in response, activating a thermal-conditioning system. The thermal-conditioning system may, in general, increase a temperature of the solder joints to improve mechanical robustness of the solder joints.

A lane keeping system for a vehicle includes a first roll angle sensor configured to provide a first signal indicative of dynamic vehicle body roll. A second roll angle sensor is configured to provide a second signal indicative of an angle between vehicle sprung and unsprung masses. A lane keeping system (LKS) controller is in communication with the first and second roll angle sensors. The LKS controller is configured to discern a vehicle roll angle in response to the first and second signals based upon effects of a lateral wind force on the vehicle. The LKS controller is configured to produce a correction in response to the determined lateral wind force effects to maintain the vehicle along a desired path.

A vessel having at least one hull, a body and a suspension system for supporting at least a portion of the body above the at least one hull is described. The suspension system includes at least one support means, and the vessel further includes at least one gyroscopic stabilizer for attenuating rotation of the body about at least one stabilizing axis.

An angular velocity sensor having a casing in which a disk shaped permanent magnet member is arranged so that it floats on a magnetic fluid filled in the casing. A Hall motor is provided for rotating the permanent magnet about its axis in the casing, and a detection unit is provided detecting an inclination of the magnet member about an axis which is transverse to the axis about which the magnet member rotates, which inclination is generated when the sensor is subjected to an angular movement. An angular velocity of such an angular movement is calculated from the detected degree of inclination of the magnet member.

A two-gyro four-gimbal attitude sensing system having gimbal lock avoidance is provided with continuous azimuth information, rather than roll information, relative to the magnetic cardinal headings while in near vertical attitudes, thereby to allow recovery from vertical on a desired heading. The system is comprised of means (48) for stabilizing an outer roll gimbal (14) that is common to a vertical gyro (12) and a directional gyro (10) with respect to the aircraft platform (50) which is being angularly displaced about an axis substantially parallel to the outer roll gyro axis, and means (38) for producing a signal indicative of the magnitude of such displacement (62, 64) as an indication of aircraft heading. Means are provided to cause stabilization of the outer roll gimbal (14) whenever the pitch angle of the aircraft passes through a threshold prior to entering vertical flight and destabilization of the outer roll gimbal (14) upon passing through the threshold when departing vertical flight.

An improved system for determining the vertical direction relative to a moving base includes gyroscopic rate sensors for determining angular velocities of a device such as a weapon mounted on the base, relative to two orthogonal axes; a gyroscopic rate sensor for determining the roll angle velocity of the system and a calculating circuit for determining the roll and pitch angles needed to ascertain the vertical direction.
摘要:
A combination gyrohorizon instrument for aircraft which visually indicates in addition to the dial display presentation of the instrument, by means of signal lamps appropriately placed with respect to the instrument dial and an audible signal indicative of energization of any one of the signal lamps, departures from straight and level flight that exceed reasonable limits of pitch and bank. The signal lamps, indicating ''''nose up,'''' ''''nose down, '''' ''''left wing down'''' and ''''right wing down'''' are in circuits energized by a first switching means controlled by the relative rotational position of the inner and outer gimbals of the instrument for sensing departure beyond reasonable safety limits in one direction or the other in the pitch axis, i.e., either ''''nose up'''' or ''''nose down'''' flight, and a second switch means controlled by the relative rotation position of the outer gimbal and the instrument casing for sensing departure beyond reasonable limits in the roll axis, i.e., either ''''left wing down'''' or ''''right wing down'''' flight.
摘要:
An instrument for calculating the pitch angle of an aircraft from two pitch signals, one having long term and the other short term pitch accuracy. The long term pitch signal is derived from a longitudinal accelerometer. A measured pitch signal having short term accuracy is provided by a vertical gyroscope. An airspeed acceleration signal is provided by a vertical gyroscope. An airspeed acceleration signal is subtracted from the accelerometer output to eliminate the acceleration component of the signal. The calculated and measured pitch signals are combined or blended in selected inverse proportions.
