Remote controls send a digital code word to the receiver. If the receiver determines the codeword is acceptable, then the receiver will actuate the relay, unlock the door, or open the barrier. Simple remote control systems use a fixed code word; the code word that opens the gate today will also open the gate tomorrow.
Chamberlain — the company's do-it-yourself line of garage door openers. LiftMaster — the company's line of garage door openers for professional installers. Raynor — the company's line of garage door openers for professional installers. This line of professional installers is slightly less common than LiftMaster.
The electric overhead garage door opener was invented by C.G. Johnson in 1926 in Hartford City, Indiana. [1] Electric Garage Door openers did not become popular until Era Meter Company of Chicago offered one after World War II where the overhead garage door could be opened via a key pad located on a post at the end of the driveway or a switch inside the garage.
Overhead Door Corporation purchased the company in 1994. [2] The Genie Company is headquartered in Mt. Hope, Ohio. [3] The company distributes its openers & accessories through professional dealers and retailers throughout the United States and Canada. [4] The company President is Michael Noyes. Genie's factory is located in nearby Baltic, Ohio.
The configuration linear program (configuration-LP) is a linear programming technique used for solving combinatorial optimization problems. It was introduced in the context of the cutting stock problem. [1] [2] Later, it has been applied to the bin packing [3] [4] and job scheduling problems.
Suppose we have the linear program: Maximize c T x subject to Ax ≤ b, x ≥ 0. We would like to construct an upper bound on the solution. So we create a linear combination of the constraints, with positive coefficients, such that the coefficients of x in the constraints are at least c T. This linear combination gives us an upper bound on the ...
Rigid chain actuator. A rigid chain actuator, known variously as a linear chain actuator, push-pull chain actuator, electric chain actuator or column-forming chain actuator, is a specialized mechanical linear actuator used in window operating, push-pull material handling and lift applications.
Zaber motorized linear stage. A linear stage or translation stage is a component of a precise motion system used to restrict an object to a single axis of motion. The term linear slide is often used interchangeably with "linear stage", though technically "linear slide" refers to a linear motion bearing, which is only a component of a linear stage.
