Abstract: A refuse collection vehicle has a chassis, an hydraulic fluid reservoir mounted on the chassis, and a body tiltably supported upon the chassis. The body has two opposed side walls along the interior of which rails extend. A bifurcated partition has an upper part suspended from the rails and a lower part tiltably suspended from the upper part. A tilt cylinder is mounted on the partition upper part and operatively linked with the partition lower part. Means are provided for moving the partition along the rails within said body. An extend trombone hydraulic line provides fluid communication between one end of the tilt cylinder and the cihassis mounted hydraulic reservoir and a retract trombone hydraulic line provides fluid communication between an opposite end of the tilt cylinder and the hydraulic reservoir. So constructed, the relative sizes of the forward and rear portion of the vehicle body may be altered and refuse separately discharged therefrom on an automated basis.

Title: Sealed beam high intensity discharge lamp system for aircraft
Inventor: PETRICK JOHN T
IPC: H01J61/34
Filed: 2000-12-20
Abstract: A system (10) for enabling successful use of HID lamps in aircraft, including, in particular, high power lamps for use as landing lights and taxi lights, utilizes a sealed beam HID (12) lamp which during normal operation has an external temperature considerably lower than the external temperature of a quartz halogen or incandescent sealed beam lamp of equivalent light output.  The lower external temperature arises in part from the use of a gas fill in the sealed beam. A detector (16) is provided to monitor the seal integrity of the sealed beam HID lamp and further to provide a response to seal failure resulting in disablement of the lamp. Exemplary means for accomplishing seal failure detection include radioactive detection, pressure monitoring, and chemical sensing, or other means wherein detection of a failed seal is followed by an electrical output used to terminate or preclude lamp operation.

Abstract: The present invention suggests the introduction of an additional protocol element for a preventive display of transmission costs in the case of Internet and on-line services, at least for the transmission of larger quantities of data, such as, for example FTP  files, sent by the provider, which can, at least, contain the scope of the data in the pending transmission, as well as other price criteria, optionally, which is recognized as such by the nodes (routers) that are involved in the transmission, and which may be expanded by its own proportional transmission prices, such that, ultimately, in the recipient's PC, on the browser for example, an evaluation of the protocol element, with a display of the costs, accordingly, appears on the screen, after which the subscriber can institute a transmission or disrupt it and optionally, take additional measures, such as, for example, activating the automatic instigation of the transmission at a later, more favorable time from the standpoint of costs. In particular, the introduction of the protocol element for all pending transmissions of data, including, for example, HTML pages, makes sense as an option that affords protection against the senseless delivery of large numbers of illustrated pages, especially in cases of rapid Internet access.

Abstract: An apparatus for creating microbubbles of gas in a liquid, and for using such created microbubbles to purify said liquid of undesirable materials therein. A  vertical pipe member is adapted to receive a liquid-gas mixture having gas bubbles of relatively large diameter therein. A series of horizontally-extending apertures are provided to permit the pipe member to expel such liquid-gas mixture radially outwardly from such pipe member. A plug means is provided in a lowermost distal end of the pipe member, so that such liquid-gas mixture is only expelled horizontally outwardly. The expelled liquid-gas mixture may contact the sides of a containment vessel. A baffle may further be provided in such containment vessel. In a refinement of the invention, a specific relationship is further specified between the exit area of the apertures and the interior cross-sectional area of the pipe member, in order to most suitably convert the gas bubbles in such liquid-gas mixture to microbubbles of a desired small size when expelled under pressure from such pipe member via such apertures. A limitation on the aperture maximum dimension , as a function of the pipe interior cross-sectional area and outer circumference, is also disclosed. A method of converting gas bubbles in such liquid-gas mixture to gas microbubbles, and for exposing such gas microbubbles to material entrained in such liquid-gas mixture so as to permit such gas microbubbles to physically or chemically react with such materials, is further disclosed.
