20080168917, Jul 17, 2008

Filed:

Jan 12, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/653722

Inventors:

Michael McCarty - Harrisonville MO, US

International Classification:

B41F 1/46

US Classification:

101363

Abstract:

A valve assembly includes a digitally controlled piston residing in a cylinder interior of a cylinder, and provides a linear flow rate versus piston position. Ink is pumped into a housing interior containing the cylinder. The ink flows from the housing interior into the cylinder interior through a tapered orifice in the cylinder, then from the cylinder interior to a printing press. The tapered orifice is aligned with the direction of travel of the piston and the position of the piston in the valve body is controlled by a stepper motor to determine how much of the tapered orifice is uncovered by the piston. The tapered orifice is designed to compensate for a pressure drop in the housing interior as the valve assembly opens to allow more flow, and results in the linear relationship between the piston position and the flow rate through the orifice.

Abstract:

A component security device may be disposed at an interface between a component and a cyber-physical system. The disclosed component security device may be physically and/or electrically coupled between the component and infrastructure of the cyber-physical system, such as a backplane, bus, and/or the like. The component security device may be configured to monitor the component, and selectively isolate the component from the cyber-physical system. Since the component security device is interposed at the interface of the component, the component security device may be capable of isolating the component regardless of whether the component has been compromised (e.g., regardless of whether the component is capable of complying with system commands).
