Inventor: RICHARDS WILLIAM R
IPC: F03B3/12
Filed: 2009-06-16
Abstract: A banded turbine configuration has an integral outer band support structure capable of providing two point simple support for a multiplicity of blades. A large scale vertical array has a set of twelve 23m-diameter banded turbines with up to nine blades and resting on an Open Web Steel Joist (OWSJ) platform. The banded turbine configuration is supported off of a main shaft hub assembly, which is supported by forward and aft pillow block bearing assemblies. The banded turbine allows for a protective screen for bird- and bat-kill prevention. Each banded turbine employs DC  alternators to provide a switchable output which is subsequently fed to a dedicated set of high efficiency grid-compatible solid state invertors or, alternatively, to energy storage.

Abstract: A soft, spreadable honey product is formed by feeding the honey in raw solid form through a side feed chute into a container defined by a vertical rotating auger with a clearance between the flight and the container. The auger flight drives the material to one discharge end of the container with a closed discharge valve at the discharge end to cause the honey to be admixed within the container and the crystals to fracture and to interact with one another so as to grind them down making them smooth and small. The mixing action is carried out until the crystals in the honey are broken down sufficiently to form the honey into the soft, spreadable honey product and carried out without the use of any heat at any time and without filtering the product.

Abstract: A working alone personnel monitor having a processor housed within a body and connected to a timer which is set by the person for a selected time interval.  A display displays the expiration of time to the person as determined by the timer. Gas sensors carried by the body and in communication with the processor sense high gas levels. An audible alarm is connected to the processor which receives input from the timer and triggers the audible alarm prior to the expiration of the selected time interval to allow the person working alone an opportunity to reset the timer. The processor receives input from the gas sensors and triggers the audible alarm upon sensing excessive concentrations of a selected gas. A  communications module, which is connected to the processor, sends a distress signal at the expiration of the selected time interval.

Inventor: DELADURANTAYE PASCAL
IPC: G02F1/00
Filed: 2009-11-23
Abstract: A method and device are provided for generating bursts of sub-pulses, preferably in the picosecond range. Seed pulses are first generated, and then phase modulated to spread their spectral profile to several time-dependent spectral components. The phase modulated seed pulses are then spectrally filtered to remove spectral components and retain only selected ones, creating gaps in the amplitude profile of the seed pulses which therefore form bursts of sub-pulses. Various parameters such as the modulation amplitude, the modulation frequency, the spectral characteristics of the filters and the overall amplitude of the seed pulses may be controlled to provide a great versatility and adaptability.

Abstract: An apparatus for use with an elevator car is operable to selectively lock an elevator car door. The apparatus verifies that the elevator car door is closed, locks the elevator car door, and verities that a lock is engaged. Once conditions are inet, the apparatus signals an elevator controller that the elevator car can move through a hoistway. The apparatus further ensures that passengers can safely disembark from the elevator car by detecting the position of the elevator car relative to a designated landing zone within the hoistway, and confirming the elevator car is stopped at a landing zone prior to disengaging the lock.  The apparatus thus ensures that the elevator car door remains closed while the elevator car is in motion or between landing zones.
