Title: Spoke edge geometry for a non-pneumatic tire
Inventor: CRON STEVEN M
IPC: B60C3/04
Filed: 2011-08-16
Abstract: The present invention provides improved spoke edge geometry for a non- pneumatic or hybrid tire that is less prone to fatigue when used. The present invention also provides a way to manufacture such geometry in a mold, In particular the spoke edge geometry is provided with a reduced cross-section that reduces the bending stresses locally and allows a unique mold construction that changes the placement and orientation of potential flash and reduces other potential molding flaws when a liquid such as polyurethane is introduced into the cavity of the mold to form a spoke. This change results in a reduction in the possibility of a stress riser being found near the edge of the spoke, enhancing the durability of the tire.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a process for extracting bitumen from poor oil sand ore involving mixing the poor oil sand ore with heated water to produce a slurry, and conditioning the slurry to yield a poor ore stream. In a separate train, good oil sand ore is mixed with heated water to produce a slurry, and conditioned to yield a good ore stream. Both the conditioned poor ore and good ore streams are combined in specified proportions to yield a blended slurry which is then fed to a primary separation vessel to produce primary bitumen froth.

Title: Travel process prediction system, computer readable medium and travel process prediction appartus
Inventor: YANO KOICHI
IPC: G06Q50/10
Filed: 2011-12-13
Abstract: Provided are a travel process prediction system and a computer program with which it is possible to reliably predict the time required for travel. When travelling objects, such as travelers, travel by using a transportation means, an information acquiring device (2) acquires, for example, the passage time instant at which each travelling object passed each waypoint in an arrival/departure facility, transportation-means specifying information indicating the transportation means, and situation information indicating the situation. A travel process prediction device (1) stores the acquired pieces of information in association with one another, and finds a regression equation that represents the relationship between: a passage time instant at a specific waypoint that a travelling object is scheduled to pass, the lapse of time between the passage of two specific waypoints, or a comparison result obtained by comparing a passage time instant with the boarding-complete time instant at the transportation means that a travelling object is scheduled to use; and items included in said transportation-means specifying information or said situation information. The travel process prediction device (1) calculates the predictive value of a future passage time instant, lapse of time, or comparison result by substituting, into the regression equation, the specifics of the transportation-means specifying information or the situation information to be predicted.

Abstract: A Hockey Goalie saves shots of a puck to the net. The puck is usually shot by a person operating a hockey stick and taking that shot. With the invention of the Puckmaster there will be a portable device that can store indoor or outdoor pucks in a tall cylindrical chamber. The pucks will be stored on top of each other in the chamber and only one will be released at a time. The pucks will drop one at a time into the main body of the Puckmaster and the pucks are then propelled out by electronic or battery power one at a time towards the goalie net. The location of the exit chambers allow a variation in shot from upper net to lower net and left, center, right side. As one puck leaves the chamber and is propelled forward the next puck drops down ready for the next shot. The timings are set so that the goalie can't predict when or where the next shot will come out.
