Title: Structural couplings
IPC: E04F15/02
Filed: 2003-09-09
Abstract: The present invention relates to structural couplings for forming of a variety of structures such as floor and wall panels for buildings and internal structures such as hand rails. The structural coupling comprises a structural component or components (1) provided with coupling leg formations (2) and locking flanges (F) and a channel section (8) which interconnect one with the other by means of a snap fit engagement (12) of the leg formations (2) of the structural component (1) with the channel section (8). This has considerable advantages over the prior art where nuts and bolts were needed to fasten the components together. The use of a common channel section which can be engaged by snap fit action provides an elegant and non-limited method of joining structural components together rather than in a direct fashion as with prior systems.

Title: Apparatus and method for controlling raid array rebuild
Filed: 2006-06-23
Abstract: An apparatus and method are disclosed for rebuilding a data storage array having plural communication paths. A first error detecting component detects an error at a data storage device of a data storage array. The data storage device has a plurality of ports and is operable to provide data for a preemptive rebuild. A port control component disables all but a single port of the data storage device. A preemptive rebuild component copies data from the data storage device to a spare data storage device using the single operational port. An alternative path maintenance component maintains an alternative communication path for use by other members of the data storage array and bypasses the data storage device. A second error detecting component detects an error at the data storage device during operation of the preemptive rebuild component. A device disabling component disables the data storage device after detecting a second error.

Title: Tile parting devices
IPC: B26D1/18
Filed: 1987-02-04
Abstract: A tile 14 to be parted along a pre-scored parting line is grasped between a pair of elements 36 which contact one surface of the tile on either side of the line, and a further element 30 which contacts the opposite surface of the tile on the line itself. Downward pressure on a handle member 26 then causes a jaw member 28 on which the element 30 is mounted to pivot about a fixed axis 18 to apply a parting pressure to the tile.

Title: Method & apparatus for closing cartons
IPC: B65B35/58
Filed: 1988-11-18
Abstract: An apparatus for closing lidded cartons (9) has a turning station (36) including a flightless horizontal conveyor, and a chain conveyor (80) which extends along one side of the flightless conveyor (44) and has light restraint members (86) pivotally mounted on its links (84). The chain conveyor (80) is moved in the same direction as the horizontal conveyor, but at a slower speed. Part way along the chain conveyor an upwardly directed air jet (100) moves the restraint members (86) individually but in succession to temporary raised positions in which they are available for engagement by a carton (9A) which is moving along the flightless conveyor in overlapping relation to the chain conveyor. A restraint member engaged by a carton in this way thereafter serves as a fulcrum about which the carton pivots through a substantial angle. Plough bars later complete the rotation of the carton through 90 DEG  in total.

Title: A pair of seal members of hard material having a low friction coefficient
IPC: F16J15/34
Filed: 1988-10-13
Abstract: A pair of seal members of hard material such as a pair of small plates which control the fluid flow through a faucet. The first seal member is made of silicon carbide, preferably formed by a process of siliconizing a carbonaceous semi-finished form. The second seal member is made from a material which is at least moderately hard, capable of receiving a precise finish, and is covered by a thin layer of harder material - silicon carbide or another carbide, a nitride, or carbon with a cubic crystallographic lattice structure - applied by physical or chemical deposition by vapor. This configuration results in a low friction coefficient even in the absence of lubrication, prevents excessive adhesion among the parts with highly polished surfaces, it assures smooth operation over long periods of time even if the seal members are subjected to high temperatures, and an excessive amount of friction is prevented upon initial separation.

Abstract: The transposed winding bar is short-circuited at one end and is made up of several part-conductors (1) electrically insulated from each other. These conductors are twisted according to the transposition principle. The conductors are twisted together in both end sections (4,5) and also in an active section (6). In the end sections, the conductors have a twist of between 60 and 120 degrees, preferably 90 degrees. In the active layer there is an incomplete transposition i.e. the twist in this section is uniform and less than 360 degrees. Alternatively, when there is full 360 degree transposition in the active section (6) a transposition with a void (8) is provided in the middle of this section. The twist in the active section (6) outside this untwisted region (8) then has a uniform 180 degree transposition. The untwisted section (8) preferably has a length in the order of about 10 per cent of the winding head load. When the active layer has an incomplete transposition its angular degree is preferably 10 to 15 degrees.
