Single Step Processing Of Memory Mapped Accesses In A Hypervisor

US Patent:
2012007, Mar 22, 2012
Filed:
Sep 16, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/883465
Inventors:
J. Alan Grubb - North Wales PA, US
John Landis - Brighton MN, US
Bryan Thompson - Coon Rapids MN, US
James R. Hunter - Chadds Ford PA, US
Assignee:
Unisys Corp. - Blue Bell PA
International Classification:
G06F 12/08
US Classification:
711 6, 711E12016
Abstract:
Trapping and/or processing of read/write accesses to hardware devices represented to the host through a memory mapped space may be performed without knowledge of the processor's instruction set or semantics of the processor's instructions. A single step routine may be executed to recognize page faults occurring from read/write accesses to emulated memory pages and causing the guest to retry the operation on a single step buffer. The hypervisor may perform post-operation processing on the single step buffer after the guest retries and completes the read or write access. For example, on a read request, the single step routine may place the guest value in the single step buffer for reading by the guest on a retry operation. On a write request, the single step routine may direct the guest to retry the write operation into the single step buffer. After the retry operation the single step routine may read the guest value from the single step buffer and place the guest value in a register of an appropriate emulated system.

Mail Selection And Metering Device

US Patent:
4149622, Apr 17, 1979
Filed:
Dec 27, 1977
Appl. No.:
5/864385
Inventors:
Robert S. Bradshaw - Broomall PA
James R. Hunter - Chadds Ford PA
Sebastian J. Lazzarotti - Broomall PA
Assignee:
Burroughs Corporation - Detroit MI
International Classification:
B65G 4300, B65G 4712
US Classification:
198444
Abstract:
A device is described for capturing certain predetermined types of mail pieces from a moving mail flow and for regulating the subsequent delivery thereof to processing equipment. The device is comprised of a receiving station and a delivery station linked by a common narrow transport. The latter forms a shallow shelf or ledge situated at the bottom of the receiving station and adapted at any given time to catch a limited number of certain types of mail from a mixed stream as it flows through the station. Additionally, the receiving station includes a vane-like member for selectively deflecting all of the mail from the transport. The operation of the member is under control of the delivery station and depends upon whether or not mail pieces awaiting further processing downstream are present in the station. The motion of the transport is controlled by both the delivery station and the processing equipment to insure that they will be kept continuously supplied with mail.

US Patent:
4503741, Mar 12, 1985
Filed:
Jul 26, 1982
Appl. No.:
6/401444
Inventors:
James R. Hunter - Chadds Ford PA
S. James Lazzarotti - Broomall PA
Assignee:
The Warner & Swasey Company - Cleveland OH
International Classification:
B26D 508, B21J 746
US Classification:
83549
Abstract:
A punch press (20), for punching a workpiece, utilizing an elongated punch support which is formed from removable interconnected punch cartridges (92) and an elongated die support which is formed from removable interconnected die cartridges (94). A punch head (32) is supported from a frame (30) which spans the punching area. A two axis positioning system is provided for positioning the sheet metal workpiece within the punching area beneath the punch head. Punch head (32) through appropriate mechanical interposer (160) engages a punch which in conjunction with an associated die, positioned there beneath, forms a hole in the workpiece. The elongated punch sections (92) and die sections (94) can be moved out of the punch press frame, disengaged and removed or replaced. The first punch section (92) and first die section (94) engage driver sections (192, 194) which are disposed in the frame (30). The driver sections (192, 194) are then moved to bring the tool supporting sections (92, 94) into the press.

Method For Controlling Punch Press Noise

US Patent:
5299478, Apr 5, 1994
Filed:
Jun 15, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/077706
Inventors:
Gerard J. Schorn - Southampton PA
James R. Hunter - Chadds Ford PA
Assignee:
Murata Machinery, Ltd. - Aichi
International Classification:
B26D 512, G06F 1546
US Classification:
83 13
Abstract:
A method for controlling punch press noise in which the noise level produced is monitored by a detector and the press ram velocity is modified in real time to keep the noise level within preset limits. A time weighted average noise level is also controlled by varying the ram velocity for punching operations over a period of operation to maintain a projected time weighted average within a preset limit.

Stacker-Sorter Arrangement For Sheet Part Pieces

US Patent:
4865310, Sep 12, 1989
Filed:
May 16, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/194693
Inventors:
James R. Hunter - Chadds Ford PA
Victor Chun - Holland PA
Assignee:
Warner & Swasey Company - Cleveland OH
International Classification:
B65H 2938
US Classification:
271296
Abstract:
A sorter-stacker arrangement for sheet part pieces (17) such as are produced by a punch press (18), in which part pieces are unloaded onto a sorter table (50) in a located position against any one of a row of stops (52), and conveyed along an X-axis as by translation of the conveyor table therealong. A pair of storage racks (36) are disposed on opposite sides of the sorter table (50), each having a vertical array of open spaces facing the sorter table (50). The sorter table (50) is elevated to the preselected position, and advanced into the appropriate storage space (38). After lowering of the stripper gates (104), the sorter table (50) is retracted to align the part piece 17 by contact of the stripper gate (104) with the inside edge of the part piece (17) and stripped on to the stack as the sorter table (50) returns to the central position.

Punch Head For A Punch Press

US Patent:
4478122, Oct 23, 1984
Filed:
Jul 26, 1982
Appl. No.:
6/401445
Inventors:
James R. Hunter - Chadds Ford PA
Assignee:
The Warner & Swasey Company - Cleveland OH
International Classification:
B26D 508
US Classification:
83549
Abstract:
A punch press (10) having a punching head (30) which includes a large eccentric crankshaft (42) for operating selected punches (32). The large eccentric crankshaft (42) withdraws the punch (32) into an upper tool support (92) for a relatively large portion of the crankshaft rotation. The crankshaft (42) is connected to a selected punch (32) by a suitable mechanical interposer. The upper tool support (92) is provided to hold a variety of punches (32) and is movable to bring a selected punch (32) into position for being operated by the punching head (30). A mechanism is provided for relative positioning of a workpiece and the punching head (30). Since the punch (32) is withdrawn within the upper tool support (92) for a relatively large portion of the crankshaft (42) rotation the movement of the workpiece can take place while the selected punch is moving but withdrawn within the upper tool support (92).

Marking Tool Holder For A Punch Press

US Patent:
5201589, Apr 13, 1993
Filed:
Feb 14, 1990
Appl. No.:
7/479944
Inventors:
Victor L. Chun - Holland PA
James R. Hunter - Chadds Ford PA
George Jaworski - Bala Cynwyd PA
Assignee:
Murata Wiedemann - King of Prussia PA
International Classification:
B41J 154
US Classification:
400134
Abstract:
A marking tool holder (10) for a punch press, in which a plurality of marking tools (46) are mounted in an indexing carrier (38) for selective activation by the press ram (14). A non-positive connection effects driving of the preselected marking tool (46) to eliminate the need for precise adjustment of the marking tool position. In a first embodiment, a pair of very stiff springs (138) are interposed between a ram engaged plunger (124) and a striker (70), while in the second embodiment, a striker mass (158) attached to the striker (70) and carried in a body member (60) which is accelerated by the ram (14) to generate kinetic energy converted into a marking pressure when the marking tool (46) impacts the workpiece (W).
