Title: A content based approach to extending the form and function of a business intelligence system
Inventor: REEVES CHRISTOPHER JOHN
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2010-09-28
Granted: 2013-06-06
Abstract: A business intelligence (BI) system includes the ability to extend its functionality outside of the project life cycle by means of specific content. Complex multidimensional queries are interpreted as trees of atomic sub-expressions that are combined in a parse-tree-like structure to form the overall query. Each sub tree is valid in isolation when provided with the proper context. Any sub tree can be an expression template, stored as application content, which at generation time uses simple text substitution with instance specific parameters to produce multidimensional expression syntax. The system includes a sophisticated type system and semantic layer that hides the user from the complexities inherent in working with OLAP databases. A business intelligence expert can provide type and semantic cues for each expression template, held as content.

Title: Debris chamber with helical flow path for enhanced subterranean debris removal
Inventor: SONI MOHAN L
IPC: E21B29/00
Filed: 2011-08-24
Granted: 2014-09-18
Abstract: A subterranean debris catcher swirls the incoming debris laden stream by putting grooves or spiral projections on the inside of the inlet pipe. In some embodiments the solids come out of openings in the side of the inlet pipe and in others the solids can exit near the top either directly into the enclosed solids holding volume as the liquid exits straight out or the solids can be discharged out the end of the inlet pipe into the bigger open space defined by the housing. In the latter case the inside housing wall can have a screen or vanes that slow down the solid particles as the fluid continues to a housing exit and eventually to an exit screen before being discharged to either go to the surface or recirculate back along the outside of the tool to the inlet pipe while picking up additional debris.

Title: Hearing aid and a method of driving an output stage
Inventor: KNUDSEN NIELS OLE
IPC: H04B3/32
Filed: 2011-02-28
Granted: 2015-04-23
Abstract: In a hearing aid (40), a direct-digital H-bridge output driver stage (1) driven by a sigma-delta modulator (2) is configured to operate in a power-saving three-level output mode or a power-consuming two-level output mode. The three-level output mode of the H-bridge output driver stage (1) has low power consumption but suffers the disadvantage of emitting capacitive noise potentially interfering with the reception of radio signals in a radio receiver (17) in the hearing aid (40). By providing a novel method of selecting the two-level output mode whenever the radio receiver (17) is receiving signals, and selecting the three-level output mode whenever the radio receiver (17) is idle, this capacitive interference does not disturb the radio receiver (17) in the hearing aid (40). During use, a timer (33) intermittently activates the radio receiver (17). Selection between the two-level output mode and the three-level output mode is performed at the quantization stage (8, 13) of the sigma-delta converter (2). Power consumption in the hearing (40) aid may thus be reduced without compromising the reception quality of the radio receiver (17). A controller (16) is configured to coordinate means (11) for output mode selection with the operating mode of the radio receiver (17).

Title: Header height control with closed center pump
Inventor: DENEAULT DUSTIN D
IPC: A01D34/74

Granted: 2017-04-20
Abstract: HEADER HEIGHT CONTROL WITH CLOSED CENTER PUMP Abstract of the Disclosure An agricultural combine has a header height control circuit supplied with hydraulic fluid from a closed center pump. The pump has a variable displacement. The pump displacement is controlled by a control line connected to the pump. The control line is supplied with fluid from the feederhouse lift cylinders that passes through a valve. The valve supplies hydraulic fluid at the feederhouse lift cylinders to the control line of the pump. Upon receiving fluid from the valve the closed center pump rapidly changes its outlet pressure to match the pressure in the feederhouse lift cylinders and thus reduces the response time of the closed center pump. | 110 116 112 -

Title: Glass packaging ensuring container integrity
Inventor: DEMARTINO STEVEN EDWARD
IPC: C03B27/04
Filed: 2013-02-28
Granted: 2016-11-17
Abstract: A strengthened glass container or vessel such as, but not limited to, vials for holding pharmaceutical products or vaccines in a hermetic and/or sterile state. The strengthened glass container undergoes a strengthening process that produces compression at the surface and tension within the container wall. The strengthening process is designed such that the tension within the wall is great enough to ensure catastrophic failure of the container, thus rendering the product unusable, should sterility be compromised by a through-wall crack. The tension is greater than a threshold central tension, above which catastrophic failure of the container is guaranteed, thus eliminating any potential for violation of pharmaceutical integrity.
