Abstract: In an oil mist generation system, an oil slinger is disposed in an oil tank and is rotated by a crankshaft, the oil contained in the oil tank being scattered by the rotation of the oil slinger so as to generate an oil mist. The oil mist generation system includes a drive gear provided on the crankshaft, and at least three oil slingers supported on three support shafts and simultaneously driven by the drive gear, the three support shafts being arranged around the drive gear.      Therefore, besides a circular shape, various shapes can be imparted to the peripheral wall of the oil tank.

Granted: 2012-08-21
Abstract: L'invention concerne un objectif (1) destiné à des disques optiques pour la mise au point du faisceau de lumière provenant d'une source lumineuse. L'aberration de coma de troisième ordre de l'objectif survenant lorsqu'un disque optique (2) est incliné selon un angle d'unité, est supérieure à celle survenant lorsque l'objectif est incliné selon un angle d'unité. L'objectif est monté sur une commande qui incline l'objectif selon l'inclinaison du disque optique. L'ouverture numérique de l'objectif est importante. La fabrication et l'assemblage de l'objectif sont facilités. L'aberration de coma de troisième ordre survenant lorsque le disque optique s'incline du fait de son gauchissement peut, par ailleurs, être corrigée par inclinaison de l'objectif, ce qui diminue l'astigmatisme résiduel après correction.

Abstract: A system and method for improving the response time of text-to-speech synthesis utilizes "triphone contexts" (i.e., triplets comprising a central phoneme and its immediate context) as the basic unit, instead of performing phoneme-by-phoneme synthesis. Prior to initiating the "real time" synthesis, a database is created of all possible triphones (there are approximately 10000 in the English language) and their associated preselection costs. At run time, therefore, only the most likely candidates are selected from the triphone database, significantly reducing the calculations that are required to be performed in real time.

Abstract: This invention relates to a flat triangular-shaped urinary drainage type collection chamber that is worn close-coupled to the wearer's urethral catheter, in the crotch region, without the use of interconnecting tubing, suspended between the wearer's legs and partially supported by the wearer's undergarments. The device includes an inlet tube with one-way inlet valve, an outlet tube and valve with extendible discharge tube and waist encircling suspension straps. Because of its shape and concealed location, liquid sloshing is limited while no restriction on movement and wearing apparel is necessary.      By gentle upward hand pressure, most or all of the contained liquid waist can be expelled through the outlet tube to suitable waist facilities when the outlet valve is opened and chamber allowed to remain in place.

Abstract: In industrial belted conveying systems, it is common to have a pull chord extending longitudinally along the conveyor, sometimes one chord on each side of the conveyor, said chord being attached to a trip mechanism, or safety switch. A  number of serious accidents have occurred in the industry due to unprotected nip points at the return idlers under these conveyors. Accidents were the result of these pull chords not being easily accessible for manual activation of the safety features. In this invention, a primary pull chord is placed near the nip point, inserted through guides, and linked to one or more secondary longitudinal pull chord(s). The primary pull chord may be sleeved with a semi-rigid, pliable rod as additional support between the guides. Further, this semi-rigid rod may be encapsulated in a lightweight foamy tube to give it bulkiness. In the event of an inadvertent incident, the primary pull chord is entrained into the nip point, pulling the secondary longitudinal pull chord which then trips the safety switch, automatically disabling the conveyor drive.

Abstract: A valve-gate mechanism for use with gas-assisted plastic injection molding systems. A moveable pin mechanism is positioned in a bushing or machine nozzle to regulate the injection of plastic material into a mold cavity. The pin mechanism has an outer pin member and an inner pin member. Movement of the inner pin member relative to the outer pin member allows gas to be injected into the plastic in the mold cavity. A spri ng member, such as a Belleville washer, biases the inner pin member to a closed position relative to the outer pin member. Gas pressure from the gas source overcomes the force of the spri ng member allowing gas to enter into the mold cavity.
