Title: Thermostatic valve and mixer tap with integrated TMV
Inventor: GRAHAM JARVIS MICHAEL WELLESLEY
IPC: F16K31/00
Filed: 2006-12-22
Granted: 2011-11-03
Abstract: There is described a mixer tap with integrated thermostatic mixing valve (TMV). The tap comprises in a single housing (10, 12): hot and cold water inlets; an outlet (24) for mixed water; hot and cold lever controls (16, 18) and a thermostatic mixing device (48) within the single housing to prevent water above a certain temperature being emitted from the common outlet.

Title: Method and apparatus for sending and receiving random access response in a wireless communication system
Inventor: ARNAUD MEYLAN
IPC: H04W74/08
Filed: 2008-12-17
Granted: 2011-11-03
Abstract: Techniques for supporting random access by user equipments (UEs) in a wireless communication system are described. In one design, a UE transmits a random access (RA) preamble for random access. The UE thereafter receives a random access response composed of a first part and a second part. The first part includes a list of N RA preamble IDs for N RA preambles being responded to by the random access response, where N ≥ 1. The second part includes N individual RA responses for the N RA preambles being responded to. The UE processes the first part to detect for an RA preamble ID of the RA preamble transmitted by the UE. If this RA preamble ID is not detected, then the UE skips the second part. Otherwise, the UE processes the second part to obtain an individual RA response for the transmitted RA preamble.

Title: Downhole filter tool
Inventor: KNOBLOCH BENTON
IPC: E21B43/00
Filed: 2009-05-12
Granted: 2015-07-23
Abstract: Apparatus for downhole filtration in a wellbore The apparatus has a diverter and a filter slidably mounted on a mandrel. The diverter has a circumferential wiper element between the mandrel and the casing within which the apparatus is run. When fluids are reverse circulated, or the tool is being pulled out, the diverter shifts to a downward position, wherein it seals against an upper end of the filter, filtering out solids in the fluids and retaining them in a chamber between the sleeve and mandrel. When running the tool into a wellbore, the diverter shifts to an upper position to permit fluids to bypass the filter sleeve. The filter sleeve bears against a spring loaded seat, which permits creating a gap between the diverter and an upper end of the filter sleeve to allow fluids to bypass the filter sleeve should the filter sleeve slots become plugged.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for the recovery, visualization and enhancement of latent fingerprints using Low Pressure Dye Vapor Deposition (LPDVD) are described. The LPDVD methods of the present invention provide for fine control over the deposition of a precursor in combination with a fluorescent dye, combination of dyes or a premixed dry solid compound of the precursor and dyestuffs (14), to make the latent fingerprints visible. The LPDVD process makes use of a heated carrier gas to dilute and carry the vapors into a vacuum chamber (30) where they condense onto the exposed surfaces of the article (32) being developed. The LPDVD process can be used to develop latent fingerprints on a wide variety of substrates, including metal, plastic, glass and thermal paper and has been shown to perform as well or better than conventional fingerprint development techniques on these surfaces.
