Title: Apparatus and related methods for automatically testing and analyzing tires
Inventor: INDORF WAYNE A
IPC: G01M17/02
Filed: 1997-10-15
Abstract: An apparatus and related methods for capturing a digital foot print image of a tire and for extrapolating load-deflection curves of the tire is presented. A frame carries a test pod that is coupled to a tire to perform various tests. In one application, a loading plate couples the tire to a transparent plate on the test pod where a camera captures a digital gray-scale image of the tire foot print. A processor converts the gray- scale image into a pressure map wherein each pixel of the digital image is correlated to a pressure value. In another application, the loading plate couples the tire to a sliding cover plate on the test pod, wherein the loading plate is incremented through a plurality of load values at predetermined inflation pressures. By using, two inflation pressures, the processor extrapolates further load-deflection curves for the tire at other inflation pressures. The apparatus also provides a unique way for imparting camber on the tire during the above tests. The data collected from the foot print image and load- deflection curves may be used to analyze the construction, operation, noise generation characteristics and performance of the tire.

Abstract: The inventive pumping plant can be used for pump engineering, the mining, petroleum and gas industries for extracting liquid from wells. Said pumping plant is provided with two cavities which are arranged in each hollow rod, isolated from each other, vacuumed or filled with a gas. Said roads are made of a low-density metal, for example corrosion-protected high-strength aluminium or titanium alloys. The internal cavities of said hollow rods comprise liquid-tight plugs which are rigidly connected to the end thereof in such a way that adapters are formed for connecting said hollow rods to demountable connectors. The hollow rods are provided with charging devices for filling the internal cavities with a pressure gas. Said charging device is arranged in the lower part of the hollow rod and a closer is disposed at the entry thereof in such a way that it is removable during filling the internal cavities with the gas. The fact that said pumping plant is provided with the rods which have low specific weight due to a correct material selection makes it possible to produce the rods with small external diameter, increase the depth of pumping by means of downhole sucker-rod pumping plants, decrease the load applied to a drive mechanism, reduce the size and weight thereof and to simplify the requirements to a balancing unit or do not use it at all.

Filed: 2005-07-21
Abstract: A locomotive (10) is operable in two or more distinct configurations, with the change in configuration being response to a configuration input signal (35). A  locomotive configuration is represented by the set of end use device control signals (13) that are generated by the locomotive control systems (22) in response to the respective set of operational input values (27). For a given set of operational input values, a first set of end use device control signals is generated when a configuration input has a first value, and a second set of end use device control signals is generated when a configuration input has a second value. The configuration input variable is responsive to an emission profile associated with the locomotive location. A value of a locomotive emission parameter corresponding to the emission profile is monitored and saved in a storage device (e.g., 104).

Patent CA-2579459-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DUFRESNE ROBERT P
IPC: H02B1/20
Filed: 2007-02-22
Abstract: Disclosed is a contact bar for use on a capping board of a given length in order to electrically connect a plurality of anodes and cathodes extending in spaced apart, alternate positions in adjacent electrolytic cells all along the capping board. The contact bar extends over the length of the capping board and is of a given average cross-section. This contact bar comprises a central core that is made of an insulating material and extends all over its length. This contact bar also comprises a plurality of contact pieces that are made of an electrically conductive material and are positioned in spaced apart positions all along the core, each of the pieces defining a segment on which only a short number of the anodes and cathodes are connected. Due to such a division of the contact bar into segments formed by the contact pieces that are no more an electrical contact with each other thanks to the core made of insulating material, any short circuit that occurs by accident is no more "transferred" to all the electrodes of the cells. It is actually transmitted only to the few electrodes in contact with the segment(s) to which is connected the electrode that may cause the trouble.

IPC: H04H20/00
Filed: 2005-10-13
Abstract: An apparatus for applying an anti-copy protection signal for use with switchable head recorders, such as Video Hi-FI recorders, is described. A high frequency pulsed signal is added to an original signal. The pulses interfere with the compensator circuitry such that the switching of the record head cannot adequately be masked on recording of a signal. On playback, the switching of the recording heads can subsequently be heard. In Video Hi-Fi recorders, the effect of the high frequency signals also interferes with the compressor-expander circuits to worsen the sound of the head switching.
