Power Supply For An Electrostatic Air Cleaner With A Modulated Pulse Width Voltage Input Having A Backup Pulse Width Limiting Means

US Patent:
4562522, Dec 31, 1985
Filed:
Dec 30, 1983
Appl. No.:
6/567432
Inventors:
John T. Adams - Minneapolis MN
Arlon D. Kompelien - Richfield MN
Assignee:
Honeywell Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
B03C 366
US Classification:
363 21
Abstract:
A power supply usable with various size loads has an input circuit receiving pulses of voltage at 25 kilohertz. The pulses are modulated in width depending upon the input to a pulse-width modulation IC receiving inputs indicative of the output voltage and current delivered to the load. A backup current limiting circuit comprising a transistor which is biased by the voltage to the load, limits the signal to the pulse-width modulation IC to limit the width of the pulse to maintain the output current within limits.

Self Correcting Time Base For Inaccurate Oscillators

US Patent:
5272650, Dec 21, 1993
Filed:
Sep 25, 1990
Appl. No.:
7/587717
Inventors:
John T. Adams - Minneapolis MN
Kenneth B. Kidder - Coon Rapids MN
Timothy M. Tinsley - Coon Rapids MN
Assignee:
Honeywell Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
G06F 1520
US Classification:
36457101
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for providing a microprocessor having an inaccurate oscillator with a desired time base. The cycles of the output signal of the oscillator are counted by a first counter until the counted number equals a predetermined correction count. The first counter then produces a timing signal. A second counter is set up to create an actual count indicative of the number of output signals occurring during a predetermined number of periods of an AC signal generator connected to the microprocessor. A predetermined desired count is then subtracted from the actual count to produce a difference count. The difference count is then added to the old correction count to create a new correction count. By iterating this process until the difference count is equal to zero, the timing signal is modified until it is equal to the desired time base.

Microcontroller And System For Controlling Trial Times In A Furnace System

US Patent:
5026270, Jun 25, 1991
Filed:
Aug 17, 1990
Appl. No.:
7/569872
Inventors:
John T. Adams - Minneapolis MN
Timothy M. Tinsley - Coon Rapids MN
Assignee:
Honeywell Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
F23N 100
US Classification:
431 24
Abstract:
A microcontroller and system allowing for more than one trial time in a furnace system, while using only one pin of the microcontroller. An alternating current signal at an input port of the microcontroller causes the microcontroller to allow a first long trial time period. Any direct current signal at the input port causes the microcontroller to allow only a second shorter trial time period. The trial time input port of the microcontroller is placed between two ports which either receive or send direct current signals. Due to this arrangement of the parts and construction of the microcontroller, the microcontroller will fail to the shorter and safer trial time if a fault causes an erroneous signal to appear at the input port.

Backup Trial For Ignition Timer

US Patent:
5131837, Jul 21, 1992
Filed:
Sep 19, 1990
Appl. No.:
7/584827
Inventors:
John T. Adams - Minneapolis MN
Assignee:
Honeywell Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
F23N 520
US Classification:
431 69
Abstract:
A gas valve control system including a microprocessor, a first relay, a second relay, flame sensor and a timer. The timer is connected to the switch which is connected in the power supply path of the second relay. The second relay is connected to the valve. Activation of the first relay causes activation of the second relay causing the valve to open. Also, activation of the first relay causes the timer to operate. The flame sensors then must sense flame or else the microprocessor will deactivate the first relay. If the microprocessor fails to deactivate the first relay, the timer causes the switch to open and break the power supply path to the second relay. This in turn causes the valve to close.

Printed Wiring Board Connector

US Patent:
4971566, Nov 20, 1990
Filed:
Nov 3, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/266730
Inventors:
John T. Adams - Minneapolis MN
Rolf L. Strand - Crystal MN
Assignee:
Honeywell Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
H01R 909
US Classification:
439 80
Abstract:
A printed wiring board connector which mechanically supports the board. A connector base has legs which extend away from ends of the base and terminate in stakes which penetrate the board for attachment and electrical connection. Walls extend from the base, arch over the base, and terminate above the base. A conductive protrusion extending from a mounted electrical device is secured between the free ends of the walls and the base providing both support of the printed wiring board and electrical connection.

Thermostat Having Simple Battery Level Detection

US Patent:
5238184, Aug 24, 1993
Filed:
Sep 30, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/769043
Inventors:
John T. Adams - Minneapolis MN
Assignee:
Honeywell Inc. - Minneapolis MN
International Classification:
G05D 2300, G08B 2100
US Classification:
236 94
Abstract:
A thermostat having a simple battery level detection circuit. The output of an oscillator, having a frequency dependent upon the battery level, is compared to the output of a battery level independent time base. If the two outputs are not in a predetermined relationship, all connected HVAC equipment is shut off.
