Abstract: The present invention is a method for operating a thermal imaging camera for selective temperature imaging, and a thermal imaging system having a selective temperature imaging mode. When first entering the selective temperature imaging mode of operation, the system and method automatically determine the hottest area in a scene and display it in a predetermined hue. The remainder of the scene is displayed in grayscale. The method and system allow further adjustment of the set point of the selective temperature imaging mode, and display portions of the scene as hot as or hotter than the set point value in gradient shades of the predetermined hue.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for defining a touch point of a clutch (23) and a torque characteristic curve (L 0 ,L 1 ,L 2 ) relating thereto. In a preferred embodiment, torques exerting on a clutch of two different engaging positions (P 1 ,P 2 ) can be obtained by comparing times required for enabling input shaft speed to synchronize with engine speed, or by comparing accelerations of input shaft (241), as the clutch (23) is being moved to the two different engaging positions (P 1 ,P 2 ) by a clutch actuator. Thereafter, as the relation between the position of the clutch and the torque can be acquired either by experiment or by assumption, a position where the torque exerting on the clutch is zero is being defined as the clutch touch point (P 0 ), and thus the torque characteristic curve can be figured out accordingly.

Abstract: A wireless communications device includes a location-dependent alarm which a user can set to be triggered at a target location. A GPS receiver embedded in the wireless device provides position data representative of the current location. When the current location matches the target location, the alarm is triggered. This enables the user to set the alarm to wake him upon arrival at a particular location, e.g. a specific station on a commuter train. In another example, the wireless device can wake the user at one time of morning if the user is sleeping in one location and at a second time if the user is sleeping in a second location.

Abstract: A two-piece cable tie (100) is provided that is capable of usage with an automated cable tie installation tool. The two-piece cable tie (100) accommodates improved gripping of large or small bundles. By including a cored-out region (130) near the neck (113), the cable tie can secure a near zero bundle size. By including a transverse pad (140) on the bottom side of the cable tie strap near the cable tie head (112), the cable tie can be prevented from rotation relative to the bundle to which it is secured. A preferred cable tie strap has a wide recessed center section (155) and high side rails (160) that increase lateral clamping force. To resist barb inversion, the cable tie preferably includes a reinforcement area (124) underneath the metal locking device when used with a strap having a recessed area. By maintaining relatively high side rails (160) and a thin web section in the tip, the cable tie can achieve zero insertion force while maintaining sufficient strap rigidity and size to enable feeding of the strap through an automated cable tie installation tool.

Abstract: A surgical severing and stapling instrument clamps tissue in a staple applying assembly comprising a lower jaw of an elongate channel holding a staple cartridge and a pivotally opposed upper jaw (anvil). A firing handle drives a rack in a handle connected to a firing rod and bar that pass through an elongate shaft and into the staple applying assembly to sever and staple tissue. Upon release of the firing handle, a retraction spring assists in withdrawing the rack and other firing components. To advantageously assist in firing, a spring biased plunger is cocked prior to firing to impart assistance upon depression of the firing trigger. Alternatively, a torsion coil spring ratchet mechanism is preloaded to act through a gear into the rack to assist. As a further alternative, a retraction spring is preloaded and disengaged until the rack is fully fired.

Abstract: An injection device is provided which includes a syringe having a discharge nozzle. The syringe is movable between a retracted position in which the discharge nozzle is contained within the housing and an extended position in which the discharge nozzle extends from the housing. A trigger is activatable to allow the contents of the syringe to be discharged through the discharge nozzle. There is also a releasable locking mechanism which, when engaged, prevents the trigger from moving into an active position. The trigger includes a first portion having a cut-out which extends from a first end of the trigger in a direction substantially parallel to the first axis. The releasable locking mechanism includes a protrusion along a second axis for communicating with the first portion of the trigger when the releasable locking mechanism is engaged and for communicating with the cut-out when the releasable locking mechanism is disengaged. Such an injection device provides improved protection against accidental activation of the trigger.

Abstract: An engine control apparatus which performs torque-down control during shifting is structured so as to determine a retard rate from an MBT ignition timing which will achieve a target torque-down rate, and determine a target ignition timing based on that retard rate. The retard rate that achieves a given torque-down rate changes substantially linearly with respect to the MBT ignition timing, so that change is easy to predict. Accordingly, the structure and configuring and the like of the engine control apparatus are simplified.
