Abstract: The disclosure describes vapour permeable retroreflective material for use on protective garments. The material may be formed in a non-continuous pattern that provides a high-level of retroreflective brightness, yet also provides adequate permeability to prevent exposure to trapped thermal energy and heated moisture. The non-continuous retroreflective pattern may include retroreflective regions and non-retroreflective regions arranged such that thermal decay through the protective garment is not substantially decreased in the regions corresponding to the retroreflective material. Rather, vapour permeation and thermal decay through the garment may be substantially the same as if the retroreflective material was not present

Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus, a system and a method for reducing standby power of an electronic appliance, and an apparatus for reducing standby power of an electrical outlet. The apparatus for reducing the standby power of the electronic appliance includes: a starting switch connected to an external power source for providing power from the external power source to the electronic appliance through a first channel, operating the electronic appliance by providing an operation signal for operating the electronic appliance to the electronic appliance, and disconnecting the external power source connected through the first channel;  and a power hold switch device connected to the electronic appliance through a second channel, the power hold switch device providing power from the external power source to the electronic appliance through the second channel when receiving a power hold control signal provided by the operating electronic appliance, and disconnecting power provided by the external power source through the second channel when receiving no power hold control signal.  As a result, with only one switch operation, the electronic appliance is connected to a power source, and operates at the same time. When a computer (i.e. the electronic appliance) changes from an operating state to a standby state, the power is automatically disconnected from the computer, so that the computer changes to a non-power consuming state. Accordingly, the standby power of the computer is cut by minimizing the standby state thereof so that it can be minimized.

Abstract: A radio-frequency identification (RFID)-based configuration detection system for automatically detecting, directing, and/or configuring the physical configuration of a complex system constituted by a set of one or more types of mateable components.  The RFID configuration detection system utilizes a set of mateable RFID tags arranged so that each mateable component includes at least one mateable RFID tag. Each RFID tag includes information about its associated component and is arranged so that when the components are mated, their associated RFID tags also are mated. The system uses at least one RFID reader to read RFID tag signals from the RFID tags. The RFID tag signals provide information about mating status of the component, as well as information about components themselves. An information processing system operably connected to the RFID reader receives and process information concerning the number and type of mated connections and thus the configuration. Changes to the configuration, such as mated connections being unmated, can be tracked to provide real-time configuration information.

Abstract: A cyclonic strainer for a well intake that provides for improved separation of gas and fluid in naturally flowing wells during mechanical pumping operations. The strainer includes an elongated member having a channel formed longitudinally therein. A plurality of apertures extend through the elongated member angled downwardly into the channel and away from a center of the channel allowing for a better shear between gas and fluids. The angle of the ports causes fluid to be forced in an opposite direction, resulting in gases and fluids shearing more quickly and cleanly, due to kinetic energy. The angle of the ports can be varied to accommodate different conditions in various well environments. In well environments in which gaseous conditions are extreme, it can be desired for the ports to be sloped southwardly or downwardly at a greater angle than for well environments in which gaseous conditions are not as extreme.

Abstract: The bed with automatic mattress lifting system (10) is a bed with a frame (12) and an internal drive system for rais-ing a mattress (15) above the frame (12), allowing the user to easily change the sheets (16) or other bed coverings, the mattress (15) rests on a mattress supporting platform (14), which, in the lowered position, is received within the frame (12). In operation driven motion of an internal rod caused by a drive system located within the frame (12) generates rotation in a lever arm (50). The lever arm (50) is secured to a shaft (40) that extends across the frame (12), and rotation of the shaft (40) causes a pair of supports (24) to rotate. Upper ends of the supports (24) are joined to a lower surface of the mattress supporting platform (14), thus driving upward movement of the mattress supporting platform (14). The sheets (16) cover both the mattress (15) and the platform (14), al-lowing the sheets (16) to be changed without having to manually lift the mattress (15).
