| A watt-hour meter or other visual read-out apparatus which may also be read electrically through the use of a plurality of code discs and a photoelectric sensing device in spaced juxtaposition with the back sides of the discs. The sensing device is supported by a cable-controlled carriage which reciprocates back and forth in a direction parallel to the discs under the control of a bidirectional electric motor. A pair of stop members are located at opposite ends of the path of travel of the carriage for causing the motor to reverse direction as the carriage contacts one of the stop members. | ||||||
| 142 | Electric-set numbering wheel | US37382173 | 1973-06-26 | US3889593A | 1975-06-17 | MCVEY CHARLES W |
| A set of number wheels for a data recorder are aligned to serve as a variable data source by first establishing all wheels to a zero or home position. A controller provides a program. The controller is polled to determine the wheels in the series which are to remain at zero and these wheels are locked. All other wheels are driven in unison until the indicia thereon are aligned at a first position. The controller is again polled to determine which wheels are to remain at that position and they are locked. The process is repeated step by step until the entire set has been rotated to align a desired indicia series in a print-out or display path.

| 143 | Remote data reading and transmission technique | US19244771 | 1971-10-26 | US3806875A | 1974-04-23 | GEORGET P |
| An illustrative embodiment of the invention described includes a meter having interrogation and reading means for remote transmission of the data optically displayed by tracks of its counting unit. The meter is connected in a chain of meters wherein the end of the reading of data from one meter triggers interrogation of the next one. Data optically displayed by the meter are converted into electrical signals by means of fiber optic transmission bundles which illuminate the data displaying tracks and pick up reflected light and transmit it to a photoelectric detector. Switch means are provided for scanning the various data displaying tracks of the meter to produce sequential output electrical signals representative of the data.

Der Verbrauchszähler (1) wie bspw. Stromzähler, Wasserzähler oder Kilometerzähler beinhaltet eine Zählerrolle (3) und einen Abtastkopf (2) zur Detektion von auf der Zählerrolle (3) angebrachten Markierungen, bspw. Ziffern 0 bis 9, wobei die Zählerrolle (3) und der Abtastkopf (2) bezüglich einer Drehachse relativ zueinander drehbar sind. Der Abtastkopf (2) beinhaltet einen Bildsensor (5) und ein optisches Abbildungssystem (4) zum Abbilden der Markierungen auf den Bildsensor (5). Die Zählerrolle (3) hat vorzugsweise die Form eines geraden Prismas, dessen Grundfläche (31) ein regelmässiges Vieleck, bspw. ein Zehneck ist. Jeder Teilfläche (30.0-30.9) des Prismas ist ein abzubildendes Zeichen zugeordnet. So können Verzerrungen bei der Abbildung minimal gehalten werden, weil die ebene Teilfläche (30.0) des Prismas auf eine ebene Fläche des Sensors (5) abgebildet wird. Ausserdem sind die Anforderungen an das optische System bezüglich Schärfentiefe kleiner, d. h. es können grössere Blendenöffnungen (8) gewählt werden mit den Vorteilen von kurzer Belichtungszeit und kleiner Beleuchtungsintensität. |

Der Messgeber dient zur Bestimmung der gegenseitigen Lage einer Massverkörperung (3) und eines relativ zur Massverkörperung (3) in einer Richtung bewegbaren Abtastkopfes (2). Gebündeltes Licht wird von einer Lichtquelle (21) auf dem Abtastkopf (2) ausgesandt, an der Massverkörperung (3) reflektiert und auf dem Abtastkopf (2) detektiert. Die Reflexion an der Massverkörperung (3) erfolgt derart, dass die Lage des Lichtflecks, welcher auf dem Abtastkopf (2) entsteht, von der gegenseitigen Lage der Massverkörperung (3) und des Abtastkopfes (2) abhängt. Die von Detektoren (22.1, 22.2) auf dem Abtastkopf (2) detektierte Lichtintensität ist also ein Mass für die gegenseitige Lage der Massverkörperung (3) und des Abtastkopfes (2). Die Massverkörperung (3) ist vorzugsweise als Reflexionsprisma ausgebildet, dessen Achse leicht windschief zur Bewegungsrichtung liegt. Der Messgeber arbeitet berührungslos, ist einfach und kostengünstig herstellbar und weist eine geringe Empfindlichkeit gegenüber Verschmutzungen auf. Er kann in bestehende Verbrauchszähler wie bspw. Strom- oder Wasserzähler integriert werden, um deren automatische Ablesung zu ermöglichen. |

| A pre-metered dose assembly for consistently supplying precise doses of medicament is provided for a breath-actuated dry powder inhaler. The assembly includes a cap defining a dry powder delivery passageway for providing air to dry powder supply port of a swirl chamber of a breath-actuated dry powder inhaler, and a magazine including a plurality of reservoirs for holding pre-metered doses of dry powder. One of the magazine and the cap is movable with respect to the other of the magazine and the cap for sequentially positioning the reservoirs within the delivery passageway of the cap. A breath-induced low pressure at an outlet port of the swirl chamber of the inhaler causes an air flow through the dry powder delivery passageway of the assembly and into the dry powder supply port of the swirl chamber that entrains dry powder from the reservoir positioned in the passageway for inhalation by a patient using the inhaler. The present disclosure also provides a breath-actuated dry powder inhaler including the pre-metered dose assembly in combination with a de-agglomerator for breaking up aggregates and micronizing particles of dry powder prior to inhalation of the powder by a patient. | ||||||

| A method is presented for obtaining a meter reading from a captured image (28) of a counter mechanism (3) . The counter mechanism has at least one symbol position (10X) , each being capable of showing a plurality of symbols (10) in sequential order so as to indicate respective values of said symbol position. Symbol image data (29) for the symbol position is derived from the image. The symbol image data is processed by matching with reference image data (34) representing said plurality of symbols to determine a current value of said symbol position. An output signal (39) representing said meter reading is generated from the current value deter- mined for the or each symbol position. The reference image data (34) is provided as a first set of symbol templates (36) and a second set of symbol templates (38) , and the processing of the symbol image data (29) involves a preprocessing stage (110) and a matching stage (120) . The method involves selecting, based on an outcome of the preprocessing stage, at least one of the first and second sets of symbol templates (36, 38) for use during the matching stage. | ||||||
