摘要： A brake control unit for providing a brake output signal to a brake load includes a processor, an accelerometer and a memory subsystem. The accelerometer is coupled to the processor and provides a brake control signal to the processor, which is configured to provide the brake output signal to the brake load in response to the brake control signal. The memory subsystem is coupled to the processor and stores processor executable code, which causes the processor to automatically acquire an operating point of the brake control signal when the brake control unit is mounted within a range of operating positions.

摘要： An electrical charging circuit for applying a controlled charge to a receiving device, such as a battery, and particularly such as a battery carried on a towed vehicle such as a trailer for actuating the trailer brakes during emergency situations such as unexpected disconnection from the towing vehicle, i.e., break-away. In a basic sense, the charging circuit includes a voltage potential-responsive element or component for sensing the charged level of the receiving device coupled to the circuit and enabling or disabling the circuit charging operation, together with a variable-conductance circuit component for producing a generally constant charging voltage output to the receiving device over a wide range of applied voltages but also operable to provide a first amount of current flow to the receiving device at a given applied voltage and temperature but a second a limited amount of current flow when the voltage across the charging circuit is sufficiently large. In its most preferred embodiment, the voltage responsive component may be a diode switch, and the variable-conductance circuit component may be a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistor.

摘要： A freely-flexing cantilever-type inertial sensor is suspended from one end so that its other end may move in response to inertial forces, for example, as a result of braking in a towing vehicle. The pendulum blade is secured to a rigid support structure in a manner whereby the opposite sides of the pendulum, which is preferably of multiple-layer construction and is elastically-deformable, may freely shift longitudinally with respect to one another upon lateral flexure of the pendulum in response to inertial forces. Preferably, this is accomplished by utilizing an adhesive connection directly between the rigid support and the adjacent side of the pendulum, whereby only that layer closest to the support is directly secured to it. The support for the pendulum preferably includes a self-hinge by which the position of the pendulum-supporting portion may be changed with respect to that of a base portion, in order to current for non-verticality in the actual operating environment. The base preferably provides integral mounts for optical components which monitor the inertially-induced pendulum flexure, and the optical axis is preferably coincident with the pivot axis of the self-hinge. The pendulum blade is preferably a short, generally rigid member which is sufficiently stiff to have deflection of less than about 0.050 inches when subjected to inertial focres of about 1 G.

摘要： Towed vehicles can be extremely heavy. Accordingly, it is too much of a burden to the braking system of a towing vehicle to not have brakes on the towed vehicle. Controlling the brakes of the towed vehicle must be accurately applied otherwise undesirable conditions can be created. There is a need for a method for controlling braking of a towed vehicle. This method comprises receiving a first signal via a communication bus of a towing vehicle, the first signal relating to at least one operating condition of at least one the towing vehicle and a towed vehicle, sending a second signal to brakes of the towed vehicle, the second signal based on said first signal.

摘要： A power supply for a gas discharge lamp includes a current regulator for regulating the current supplied to a lamp and current steering means for steering current from the current regulator in alternating directions through an isolation transformer primary winding, the secondary winding of the transformer being connected with a lamp through an arc striking circuit. The frequency of alternating the current through the transformer is controlled as a function of the lamp voltage in order to regulate the volt-second product of the transformer through all portions of a lamp operating cycle including arc striking. This reduces saturation of the transformer and allows a much smaller transformer to be used. In a preferred embodiment, the current regulation and steering functions are performed in a bridge circuit having FET switches in each leg and in which the transformer primary spans the sides of the bridge. Pairs of FETs in diametrically opposite legs of the bridge are operated in unison, with one FET of each pair controlling lamp current by pulse-width regulation. The current is steered through the transformer primary by alternatingly operating the FET pairs at a frequency established by a voltage-controlled oscillator responsive to transformer voltage.

摘要： Improvements in theft-detection or surveillance systems of the type in which an alternating electromagnetic field is established across a doorway or other portal and is monitored to detect the presence within the field of a marker or tag member comprising a small strip of permalloy or like material of high permeability hidden or otherwise carried on merchandise or other articles and objects to thereby "mark" such merchandise or objects, i.e., to make them readily detectable even though hidden from view. More particularly regarded, the improvements in accordance herewith reside in signal-processing electronic circuitry which increases detection sensitivity and accuracy while at the same time reducing erroneous detection results. In particular, the circuitry utilizes summing and differencing techniques to improve signal-to-noise ratios and eliminate previously-unsuspected sources of error, and facilitates use of the concept of frequency spectrum-content ratios as a determinant in distinguishing between apparent detection of true markers from other objects or structures whose response to the alternating interrogation field closely resembles that of the true markers and would normally produce erroneous detection indications. Basically this is accomplished by using the aforementioned summing and differencing techniques to produce at least one summed signal resultant and one differenced signal resultant which have different frequency content spectrums, and subsequently processing such signal resultants by use of sampling techniques representative of both marker-presence and marker-absence, comparison of these samples through summing, differencing and peak-integrating techniques, as well as by other more particular approaches.

摘要： Brake controllers typically require a microprocessor or some complex digital circuitry to achieve a proportional brake control signal suitable to control electric brakes on a towed vehicle. These components can be difficult to manufacture and can be expensive. Therefore, a brake controller comprises a case, a positioning member held by the case, and an accelerometer attached to the positioning member, wherein the positioning member is moveable to position the accelerometer in an operable position
