Filed: 2003-11-25
Abstract: A reciprocating saw is provided having a motor oriented within a housing for operably driving a saw bar and blade holder in a reciprocating motion. The blade holder has a longitudinal slot for receiving a saw blade, and a transverse aperture extending into the longitudinal slot for receiving a follower. A sleeve is pivotally mounted upon the body, and has a circum-axial cam groove formed therein cooperating with the follower. Rotation in a first lock direction urges the follower into the longitudinal slot for engaging the saw blade and rotation of the sleeve in a second unlock direction allows the follower to retract. A biasing member is included for biasing the sleeve in the first lock direction. The sleeve central bore is adapted to provide clearance for the follower such that the sleeve is permitted to axially translate relative to the body for assembly or disassembly of the blade holder.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système et un procédé utilisés pour évaluer le comportement animal. Ledit système comprend un module présentant des capteurs qui collecte une variété de données physiques et biologiques d'un sujet d'essai. L'interprétation des données est utilisée pour évaluer le comportement, la neurologie, la biochimie et la physiologie du sujet d'essai. Ledit module est utile pour observer les effets d'un médicament sur l'animal d'essai et fournir des informations sur la signature du médicament. Un autre avantage est la portabilité du module qui lui permet d'être utilisé dans des cages de laboratoire classiques. (INCERTITUDE CONCERNANT LADITE PORTABILITE). Ladite portabilité permet à l'animal d'être testé dans son propre habitat, cela peut réduire toute donnée erronée due au stress de l'animal lorsqu'il est déplacé vers une cage d'essai. De plus, la conception du module permet la collecte et l'interprétation parallèles de données de plusieurs animaux de laboratoire soumis à différentes expériences. La modélisation multidimensionnelle du sujet d'essai fondée sur l'interprétation des données par le système permet la reconnaissance de formes de la signature de médicament, et l'analyse prédictive de médicament.

Title: Pipe coupler
Inventor: MIKIYA TOSHIO
IPC: F16L37/23
Filed: 2004-03-25
Abstract: A female coupler suitable for use with a high pressure fluid is provided. The female coupler has locking members or balls adapted to be forced into engagement with a male coupler inserted into the female coupler by a sleeve or outer movable member. The sleeve is held by holding members or balls until the male coupler is inserted into the female coupler and a locking ball receiving recess formed in the exterior surface thereof is brought into a position for receiving the locking balls therein. Accordingly, the sleeve is prevented from moving to a position for forcing the locking ball into the locking ball receiving recess even if the male coupler is suddenly moved out from the female coupler, which is a problem that can occur in prior art female couplers. Further, the sleeve is provided with handle. An operator can grip the handle to hold the female coupler and align it with the male coupler, and advance the former towards the latter so that male coupler is inserted into the female coupler and, then, the sleeve is moved to the locking position.

IPC: H02H6/00
Filed: 2002-12-11
Abstract: Electrical power distribution circuits for motor vehicles incorporate a switching element for controlling the energization of the circuits. Current metering elements associated with each switching element indicate the current drawn by the respective electrical circuits. A microcontroller (48) is provided which provides an activation signal for the switching elements, often in accord with a pulse width modulated duty cycle. The microcontroller (48) implements a circuit protective algorithm which takes as inputs the indication of current drawn by a particular electrical circuit and the duty cycle. An equivalent D.C. current is estimated for determining a heat index for a hypothetical fuse suitable for protecting the circuit. When the heat index exceeds the rating for the fuse the fuse melts.
