IPC: E04G23/02
Filed: 2007-08-02
Abstract: An apparatus (10) and method provide for measurement at various positions over an extent of an uneven structural surface (12), and preparation of spacers (14), cut to appropriate thicknesses based upon such measurements, such that when affixed to the respective measurement locations, outer facing surfaces of the spacers (14) are collectively coplanar A method of aligning a surface (12) includes defining a reference plane in a fixed condition relative to the structural surface (12), and determining a differential distance between the structural surface (12) and the reference plane at various locations along an extend of the particular structural surface (12). Using these measurements, indexed according to location, spacers (14) are cut to a thickness based upon the respective differential distances at corresponding locations, which, when mounted to the structural surface (12) at these recorded locations, results in alignment of outwardly facing surfaces with a common plane. Advantageously, at least a portion of the processes is automated.

Title: Sunscreen composition
Inventor: BHUNIA PRASENJIT
IPC: A61K8/35
Filed: 2007-08-17
Abstract: It has been reported that many organic sunscreens lose their efficacy on exposure to UV rays. Further some of the organic sunscreens are known to interact with each other when applied on the skin with or without exposure to UV radiation. Thus such compositions are not stable. They are not very effective in blocking the UV-rays a few minutes or hours after the product has been applied to the skin. Further when such compositions are used and then exposed to sunlight or UV rays, the period over which the skin is actually protected is very short, while the consumer is under the mistaken impression that the composition is protecting his/her skin. This false impression can lead to the consumer exposing himself/herself more to sunlight thereby getting more damage to the skin. A solution to the foregoing problem is provided by a stable sunscreen composition comprising: (a) a complex of a first organic sunscreen with a first paramagnetic metal ion; and (b) a second organic sunscreen.

Abstract: Isothermal work piece holding system uses vibration-damping, low thermal conductivity, low TCE polymer-composite holding body(ies) to damp machine tool vibration and chatter while accurately, rigidly maintaining the work piece in position by vacuum and/or mechanical clamps during machining. Cooling fluid channels having high thermal conductivity plates in contact with the work piece transfer thermal energy to/from it to maintain it isothermal during machining, inspection and assembly, eliminating dimensional changes and increasing process repeatability. Minimizing chatter reduces cycle time and improves surface finish which eliminates manual re-work. The system employs vacuum and coolant fluid pumps, heater/cooler(s), temperature sensor(s) and controller(s) to achieve highly accurate dimensional tolerances machining of parts which reduces error stack-up and assembly costs. Isothermal fixtures are disclosed for assembling parts and automated rivet settings in precise locations with reduced use of shims. The inventive isothermal system is applicable to control of TCE/I2R effects in linear induction motors.

Title: Binarization technique for acoustic data analysis
Inventor: WAGO TOSHIMICHI
IPC: F04B51/00
Filed: 2008-04-24
Abstract: A method of enhancing acoustic pump data for monitoring of pump condition in operation. The enhancement may be in the form of a substantial reduction in the amount of data to be processed by firmware to a much more manageable level. This may be achieved through pre-filtering of acquired acoustic data, computing frequency moments, and by application of a median filter to the acoustic data. Regardless, a binarization technique that uses features vector including but not limited to double-threshold derived from statistics of enhanced amplitudes, may be employed whereby enhanced acoustic data is boiled down to a series of potential acoustic events of particular widths. These widths may represent a duration of each acoustic event and be checked for correlation with the speed of the operating speed of the pump. Acoustic events that correlate with an operating speed of the pump may represent an unhealthy condition of the pump such as where the width is about the duration of one half of a cycle of the pump and a leaky pump valve presents itself for this same period of time.

Abstract: Magnetically latching and releasing a voice coil actuator for controlling electrical switchgear. The voice coil actuator includes a voic coil magnet (220) disposed on a common longitudinal axis with respect to a voice coil assembly. A coil of the voice coil assembly exerts a magnetic force on the voice coil assembly, thrusting the voice coil assembly towards the voice coil magnet. At least one pair latching members (881,882) mounted to the voice coil assembly creates a permanent magnet circuit between the latching members an the voice coil magnet. The permanent magnet circuit maintains the position of the voice coil assembly relative to the voice coil magn even when power to the coil is removed. This latch can be released by applying a current in the coil or by applying an external, physi force to a member coupled to the voice coil assembly.
