A two mode power-split electric hybrid system and a method of control said hybrid system. The hybrid system is comprised of an engine, a transmission, an energy storage device and a control system for effecting said control method. Said transmission is a reconfigurable power split system, comprising a power-splitting device and an output power path selecting device. The power splitting device includes a compound planetary gear system and two electric machines which form a local series electric hybrid system. Said transmission regulates the output power state of said hybrid system by controlling power flow within said local series hybrid system. The hybrid system provides at least two operating mode, an output power split mode and a compound power split mode. Said control system includes multiple controllers and control modules. In accordance with the operating conditions of the hybrid system, said control system computes and sets system power requirement, allocates ob board power resources and sets engine operating speed and torque. In addition, said control system sets the operation mode of the transmission and controls the engine speed by adjusting operating torque of electric machines, based on the differential signal between reference engine speed and actual engine speed. Said control system is also capable of controlling engine torque through engine controller.

This invention is a reduced size citrus fruit juicing machine that uses sets of rotating male-female drums characterized by having one sole female drum and one sole male drum with an automatically positioning blade and a retaining pendulum—turning device. These characteristics avoid having to incorporate a second set of drums into the machine since the remaining half of the fruit is turned after the cut into the following upper cavity of the female drum. In addition to maintaining the performance of similar machines of greater size, it improves hygienic conditions due to an appropriate disposition of the retaining pendulum, a ribbed opening for the fruit, a peel collector and an integrated customized juice container which are isolated from the outside, all of which make it especially attractive to hotels and restaurants that do not have much available space.

A device (1) for machining an ophthalmic lens includes a support for the ophthalmic lens and for driving it in rotation about a blocking axis (A1), a machining module (35) that can be swiveled relative to the support and driving the lens in rotation and that is suitable for pivoting about a swivel axis that is not parallel to the blocking axis of the lens, and at least one drill tool mounted to rotate on the machining module about a first axis of rotation. The machining device includes at least one other machining tool mounted to rotate on the machining module about another axis of rotation that is distinct from the first axis of rotation and that is stationary relative to the first axis of rotation.

In a coin depositing and dispensing machine 10, a plurality of storing and feeding apparatuses 50 disposed below a deposited-coin transport unit 20 are arranged vertically on plural levels. A transport direction in which a coin is transported by the deposited-coin transport unit and a feeding direction in which a coin is fed out from each storing and feeding unit are substantially perpendicular to each other.

A drawer control means for controlling access to restricted stored items located in compartments in drawers positioned within a cabinet housing a multiplicity of drawers, said drawers being arranged in columns, whereby the drawers in any column can be controlled such that access to a selected drawer and access to a specified compartment within that drawer is effected by only two locking mechanisms per drawer column, and such that the withdrawal distance of a drawer from the cabinet is pre-set prior to the drawer being opened.

A wireless power supply apparatus includes a power reception coil, an actual load and an auxiliary load. The power reception coil functions as a repeater for receiving electric power in a non-contact manner by magnetic resonance with a power transmission coil to which electric power is supplied from a power supply unit and relaying transfer of the electric power from the power transmission coil. The actual load is connected to the power reception coil and is powered by the electric power received by the power reception coil. The auxiliary load is inserted parallel to the power reception coil and the actual load and forms a closed circuit with the power reception coil when supply of the electric power to the actual load is interrupted to be in an open state.

A rotor assembly for an electrodynamic machine is provided. The rotor assembly comprises a lamination section and an end connector. The lamination section comprises rotor lamination sheets formed to define an annular array of axial cooling ducts mechanically supported by a plurality of radial and arched structural members that define an array of arched or angled supports to readily pass a magnetic flux via an optimal flux path. The lamination section further comprises rotor slots, with rotor conductor bars being disposed in the rotor slots. The end connector is supported by the rotor conductor bars. An axial space is formed in the lamination section by the annular array of axial cooling ducts for guiding a cooling fluid flow in an axial direction through the rotor assembly.

An internal gear grinding machine achieves space savings and reduction in size of a machine, as well as prevents the tools from being damaged even when an abnormal situation such as a blackout occurs, by a simplifying dressing operation. The internal gear grinding machine for grinding a workpiece (W) by synchronously rotating the workpiece (W) and a barrel-shaped threaded grinding wheel (17) in mesh with each other includes a dressing device (20) for dressing the threaded tool (17) by meshing the threaded grinding wheel (17) with a disk dresser (56). When dressing, the threaded grinding wheel (17) and the disc dresser (56) are operated in accordance with the helix angle and barrel shape of the threaded grinding wheel (17), and the brake mechanism (58) applies a braking force to a dresser turn drive motor (53) to enable the disc dresser (56) to be maintained at a turned position thereof.
