Filed: 2007-03-19
Abstract: A breakstem rivet placing tool conventionally includes a flow restrictions (14) for hydraulic fluid used to drive the tool in a stem pulling direction.  This serves to prevent recoil of the tool due to rapid acceleration of an internal piston (4) when the stem of the breakstem rivet breaks. Prior art flow restrictions (14) create a jet (10) of high velocity hydraulic fluid into the tool which may damage components (26) by erosion. A revised fluid damper valve (14' ,14' ' ,14' ' ' ,40,42,42~) deflects and/or diffuses the fluid flow to avoid damage by erosion.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for monitoring brake wear of a brake assembly. A cam shaft may be coupled to a brake assembly and configured such that movement of the cam shaft engages and disengages the brake assembly, a cam shaft movement sensor produces a signal corresponding to a position of the cam shaft, and a control circuit assigns the signal produced by the cam shaft movement sensor at an unadjusted and unengaged position of the brake assembly to a reference cam shaft position, thereafter monitors the signal to determine an engaged cam shaft position when the brake assembly is engaged, and activates at least one indicator if the engaged cam shaft position exceeds a threshold cam shaft position stored in the memory unit. The threshold cam shaft position is based on the reference position and is a cam shaft position beyond which the brake assembly is worn.

Title: Subway door passenger traffic light
Inventor: YETMAN SHARON T
IPC: G08B5/36
Filed: 2008-09-10
Abstract: The Subway Door Passenger Traffic Light works quite simply on the premise of a traffic street light comparison. Passengers are instructed by means of a "green" or "red" light as to whether or not they can embark or disembark in or out any particular set of subway doors situated centrally above all interior and exterior subway doors. This Traffic Light System for subway passenger would create the highest passenger flow efficiency. No longer would there be inflow and outflow within the same set of subway doors. All subway doors on the interior and exterior will have a "green" and a "red" light with only one lit at one time and the opposite colour would be lit on the opposite side of the subway doors. The traffic light combination could be preset according to each subway system needs and would likely reverse itself from morning to afternoon rush hours needs. A good example would be the two outside subway doors and the two most inner subway doors would accommodate all inflow passengers and all other subway doors would accommodate all outflow passengers. The largest number of "green light" inflow or outflow would represent the greatest need for embarking or disembarking passenger flow needs.

Abstract: A downhole fluid analysis system comprises an input light signal that is directed through a fluid sample housed in a sample cell (202) . The input light signal may originate from a plurality of light sources (200) . A light signal output from the sample cell is then routed (206) to two or more spectrometers (214, 216) for measurement of the represented wavelengths in the output light signal. The output of the spectrometers is then compared to known values for hydrocarbons typically encountered downhole. This provides insight into the composition of the sample fluid. Additionally, the input light can be routed directly (210) to the two or more spectrometers to be used in calibration of the system in the high temperature and noise environment downhole.

Abstract: In a process of manufacturing a membrane electrode assembly, seal-material flow holes (62a, 62b) in the form of through-holes are formed, separately from manifold holes (16a - 16f), in the membrane electrode assembly prior to injection molding. When the membrane electrode assembly is placed in a mold for injection molding, the seal-material flow hole (62a) is located in a cavity (44a). When a seal material is supplied from a supply port (42) formed at a location where the manifold hole (16a) is formed, the seal material that flows toward the upper die (40a) passes the seal-material flow hole (62a) in the cavity (44a), and then flows toward the lower die (40b), so as to reduce the unevenness between the amounts of supply of the seal material to the upper die (40a) and the lower die (40b).

Abstract: By coupling a rating engine with call processing, rating rules are generated that enable a flexible interface between call process and call rating without necessitating that fixed data be passed between them. The real time charging system (RCS) provides a process that creates a generic entity, called a bucket, and uses it to keep track of account information and/or to count types of usage. The bucket allows an operator to define accounts and usage counters and how they are used as part of the rating rules. Use of these buckets is defined in rating rules, thus turning control over subscriber account and usage counters to the network operator. Further, the RCS provides a calendar option for limiting times during which calls to general telephone numbers can be made or received.
