Publication number: US20220092229A1
Application number: 17/541,777

Abstract:
An industrial data presentation system leverages structured data types defined on industrial devices to generate and deliver meaningful presentations of industrial data. Industrial devices are configured to support structured data types referred to as basic information data types (BIDTs) comprising a finite set of structured information data types, including a rate data type, a state data type, an odometer data type, and an event data type. The BIDTs are discoverable by a gateway device on which models of industrial assets can be defined, where the models reference the BIDTs defined on the industrial devices. The gateway device can retrieve industrial data from the data tags, formatted in accordance with the data types and associated user-defined metadata specific to the respective data types. The gateway device or a separate application server system can then generate graphical presentations of the industrial data in accordance with the model and the metadata.

Publication number: US20220085745A1
Application number: 17/538,610

Abstract:
A motor-drive system may include a rectifier, a metal-oxide varistor (MOV) assembly, and an inverter. The rectifier may generate a direct current (DC) voltage based on a first voltage received from at least one supply voltage line coupled to a voltage source. The MOV assembly may include at least two metal-oxide varistors (MOVs) respectively coupled to the at least one supply voltage lines. The MOV assembly may couple between the voltage source and the rectifier. The motor-drive system may also include a permanently-installed jumper to couple at least one MOV of the at least two MOVs of the MOV assembly to a system ground. The inverter of the motor-drive system may convert the DC voltage to an alternating current (AC) voltage, which may be provided to a load of the motor-drive system.

Application number: 17/534,855

Abstract:
A linear motor system may include a plurality of track sections that may enable a mover to traverse a track formed by the plurality of track sections. The system may also include a plurality of connection modules, such that each connection module of the plurality of connection modules may physically couple two respective adjacent track sections of the plurality of track sections and communicatively couple the two respective adjacent track sections of the plurality of track section. Each connection module may also electrically couple the two respective adjacent track sections of the plurality of track section.
