Abstract: A safety electric outlet receiving an electrical plug having a first live standard sized plug blade and second neutral standard sized plug blade including an outlet housing having at least two slots permitting the admission of the first and the second plug blade. A live side power supply coupled to the outlet and a neutral side of the outlet is provided. A first set of contacts coupled to the live side power supply and in a normally open state and supported on a first live side lever. A second set of contact is coupled to the live side through the first set of contacts and couples to the neutral side of the circuit in a normally open state supported on a second live side lever. A third set of contacts is coupled to the second and to the neutral side of the circuit in a normally open state on a first neutral side levers. A fourth set of contacts is coupled to the third set of at least four pairs of contacts and thereby couples the third set of contacts to neutral, the fourth set of contacts in a normally open state and supported on a second neutral side levers, where the insertion of standard sized plug prongs in their respective sides, the live side prong engages the first and second live side levers and couples the first and second sets of contacts to couple the powers supply on the live side of the circuit to neutral and the neutral standard sized plug prong engages the first and second neutral side levers to engage the third and fourth of sets of contacts to the neutral side of the circuit and complete the circuit.  Failure to admit a standard sized plug blade on either the live or neutral side of the outlet would result in a failure to complete the circuit and only couple the respective side to neutral.

Title: Process of making ceria-based electrolyte coating
Inventor: BERGHAUS JORG OBERSTE
IPC: C01F17/241
Filed: 2009-02-25
Abstract: It has been surprisingly found that injecting ceria-based particles (mean size less than 200nm) suspended in a combustible organic solvent into a plume having a maximum temperature between about 2,600°C and 4,000°C to impart a mean temperature to the particles from about 2,6000C to about 3,800°C, and to accelerate the particles to a mean velocity between about 600 to 1000 m/s, produces a thin, uniform, dense, crack-free, nanocrystalline ceria-based coating, which may be applied on porous cermet or metal substrate, for example. The physical environment of a high-velocity oxyfuel (HVOF) thermal spraying gun suitably deployed using standard fuels produces these conditions. The method of the present invention is particularly useful for the cost-effective fabrication of ceria-containing electrolytes for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs).

IPC: H04L27/26
Filed: 2009-03-26
Abstract: Techniques for sending low reuse preambles in a wireless network are described. In an aspect, a base station sends a low reuse preamble on reserved frequency resources to allow terminals to detect the base station even in the presence of strong interfering base stations. The base station generates the low reuse preamble to include a pilot portion and a data portion. The base station determines frequency resources reserved for sending low reuse preambles by base stations. The base station then sends the low reuse preamble on the reserved frequency resources, e.g., at a pseudo-randomly selected time. A terminal detects for low reuse preambles sent by the base stations on the reserved frequency resources. The terminal recovers information for a base station from a detected low reuse preamble.

Abstract: Complementary Links (CLs) are user defined, customized Quick Links (QLs) which can be invoked by a user and which can be activated as visible icons during a session on the device. This facilitates easy switching between the current application and another application which can be complementary to the current session or can be any user preferred destination. When the user exits the current session with a QL the current session is minimized as an Interrupt icon and when the user completes the complementary session they can get back into the main session by clicking on the Interrupt icon which then restores the original session.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for command communication between wireless devices are described. In one implementation, a data gathering device (such as a continuous glucose monitor) and a monitoring/control device, which communicate data samples through a frequency hopping protocol, utilize a dedicated command frequency for the transmission of non-data instructions and acknowledgements. A command mode is described where the command frequency is regularly listened to by a device to determine if pairing or other instructions are being sent. In another example, when communications are disrupted or corrupted, the devices revert to using the command frequency in order to reacquire a paired link between the devices. The command frequency is also used for a flight mode, where the data-acquisition device goes into a low-, or no-power transmission mode and remains in the mode, storing sampled data, until instructed to leave the flight mode over the command frequency.

IPC: F25B29/00
Filed: 2011-04-20
Abstract: A modular heating and cooling unit comprising an independent set of headers for each of the heating a cooling loads and the source. A bank of these modular units provides a system that is capable of incremental simultaneous heating and cooling and redundancy. Valves in the internal piping of the unit eliminate the need for valves in the headers between units. This substantially reduces the overall footprint of the unit. Because of the parallel flow between the heat exchangers and the heating and cooling load, the modules can be operated in cooling mode and heating mode in any order.

Abstract: An audio encoder for encoding an audio signal comprises a first coding branch (400), the first coding branch com-prising a first converter (410) for converting a signal from a time domain into a frequency domain. Furthermore, the audio encoder comprises a second coding branch (500) comprising a second time/frequency converter (523). Additionally, a signal analyzer (300/525) for analyzing the audio signal is provided. The signal analyzer, on the hand, determines whether an audio portion is ef-fective in the encoder output signal as a first encoded signal from the first encoding branch or as a second encoded signal from a second encoding branch. On the other hand, the signal analyzer determines a time/frequency resolution to be applied by the con-verters (410, 523) when generating the encoded signals. An output interface includes, in addition to the first encoded signal and the second encoded signal, a resolution information identifying the resolution used by the first time/frequency converter and used by the second time/frequency converter.

Title: Methods of treating the near-wellbore zone of the reservoir
Inventor: ZAVOLZHSKIY VICTOR BORISOVICH
IPC: E21B43/27
Filed: 2011-06-27
Abstract: The invention describes a method for treating near-wellbore zones involving the steps of injecting a magnesium metal with a catalyst into the desired area of the formation to be treated. Subsequently, combustive-oxidizing solution (COS) is injected into the zone of the formation to be treated. The COS initially reacts with the magnesium, which in turn initiates a vigorous oxidation reaction of the COS. The reaction gases and heat produced by the COS oxidation reaction are harnessed to enhance the productivity of the well by creating fractures in the treatment zone and by melting of paraffin and resin deposits in the treatment zone. As a final step, acid is injected into the formation to react with the formation thereby further enhancing the porosity of the fractures. In one embodiment, the COS uses ammonium nitrate as the oxidizer, and in another, urea or ethylene glycol may be added as a reaction fuel.
