Title: Dry sump lubricated internal combustion engine with modular cooling system
Inventor: JOHNSON JOHN L JR
IPC: F01M1/12
Filed: 1994-08-22
Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure DRY SUMP LUBRICATED INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE WITH               MODULAR COOLING SYSTEM            The design of past vehicles having internal combustion engines has focused attention toward aerodynamic principles.  However, present day vehicles have done little to reconfigure the vehicle's engine systems in order to enhance the aerodynamics of the vehicle.  The present invention allows for enhancements of the aerodynamics of the vehicle by utilizing a dry sump means within a dry sump lubricated engine which eliminates a conventional oil pan and allows a replacing cover to be smaller and more shallow thereby lowering the overall profile of the engine.  The additional use of a separately mounted oil cooler reduces the heat load to a radiator thereby decreasing the necessary size for the radiator.  The smaller radiator decreases the vertical spatial requirements for the engine.  By lowering the overall profile of the engine, with both the more shallow cover and the smaller radiator, a vehicle hood can be manufactured with an increased slope.  The increased slope of the vehicle's hood enhances the aerodynamics of the vehicle by reducing air drag.

Title: Synthetic rutile production
Inventor: WARNER NOEL ALFRED
IPC: C21B13/00
Filed: 1993-05-21
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE    Hot metal is circulated by R-H unit in a closed loop path through first and second hearths and chambers. Titaniferous material containing iron oxide is introduced into first hearth and the iron oxide therein is reduced in a heating zone in the first hearth to iron to produce titania slag having a reduced iron content which is removed in chamber before the hot metal passes via an underflow weir into chamber at which coal is added and a proportion of the hot metal is removed.  The addition of coal is such that more than 2% by weight of carbon dissolves in the hot metal in the second hearth.  Coal ash slag is removed at chamber, whilst the hot metal containing the dissolved carbon is recirculated to the first hearth.

Title: Insulation displacement connector
Inventor: POISSANT SERGE
IPC: H01R11/20
Filed: 1994-11-23
Abstract: Insulation displacement connector having one housing enclosing surge protection and terminals connectable in line with other terminals in another housing which may be moved to bring the housings into a closed condition.  The second housing has insulation displacement terminals for connection with insulated wires as the housings are closed together to complete an electrical line through the assembly from one insulation displacement terminal to the other via the surge protection.  Surge protection and the insulation displacement terminals are thus in one assembly and are protected from the environment.  The housings have a detent assembled condition enabling relative positional adjustment before closing of the housings.  Electrical testing for the line circuit and for the surge protection may be performed upon the closed assembly.

Title: Ramp Weighted Correction with Oversampling
Inventor: GRAMLICH GARY A
IPC: G01S7/292
Filed: 1995-06-28
Abstract: A digital range correlator (50) for performing trian-gular ramp-weighted correlation relative to a reference word and providing an output data rate higher than the word rate.   Two correlator channels  (70,  80)  are provided. Channel 70 provides a ramp-weighted segment sum over a word segment, with N word segments per L-bit word, wherein each received bit of a received word segment is multiplied by a corresponding ramp weight, and the corresponding product is in turn multiplied by the corresponding delayed reference word bit.  The corresponding products over the word segment are accumulated to form a ramp-weighted word segment sum. Channel 80 provides a corresponding uniformly weighted word segment sum.   The respective ramp-weighted and uniformly weighted word segment sums formed over the two preceding word segments are stored in a shift register.  The ramp-weighted segment sums are scaled by +1 or -1 to represent the proper slope of the triangular weighting and accumulat-ed.   The uniformly-weighted segment sums are scaled by appropriate integers from 1 to N to represent the triangu-lar weighting, and accumulated with the accumulated ramp-weighted scaled segment sums, and with appropriate normal-ization  factors provide the correlator output signals. Digital Doppler or low pass filtering can be applied to improve the performance.

Title: Closed alignment sleeve for optical connectors
Inventor: ANDERSON JERRY MAX
IPC: H01R13/46
Filed: 1995-11-08
Abstract: A closed alignment sleeve has three lands equally spaced on the inside surface of the sleeve.  When a ferrule is inserted into the sleeve, the interference at the three lands causes the walls of the sleeve to bend to accommodate the ferrule.  In this manner, the closed alignment sleeve with three lands has a stiffness attained by the mechanism normally associated with the open sleeve. The closed alignment sleeve is symmetrical and the three lands act to center the ferrule within the sleeve.  The sleeve is formed from a thermoplastic which is much less expensive and much more compliant than conventional ceramic and which allows the sleeve to deform to the size of the ferrule.  Further, the envelope required to contain the sleeve is small enough to fit within a variety of optical connectors, including the SC connector.  In a second embodiment, a sleeve may be formed by deforming a metallic tube to have three equally spaced lobes separated by essentially straight sides.  The sides deform outwardly to accept an inserted ferrule and center the ferrule within the sleeve.  The sleeve may additionally have cut-outs for decoupling deformation at one end of the sleeve from deformation at the other end of the sleeve.
