Abstract: Used in the automobile industry, and more specifically in the driver's cab heating system, the valve is installed between the link between the engine and the radiator and the cab's heating system. It consists of a housing unit (1) which has a circular compartment (2) which houses the rotor (25) which has a side wall which protrudes a few millimeters (28) and has attached to it, by means of an "8"- shaped lever (36), a sealing unit, consisting of an O ring (33) and its support (34). This sealing unit and the side wall (28) are responsible for blocking off the flow of liquid to the cab's heating system and the by-pass, respectively. The previously mentioned compartment has a tubular inlet (3) and outlet (5) and is attached by a linking channel (14) to the adjacent cavity (10), to which is attached an outlet tube (11) and a return opening (13) and the rotor (25) is operated manually by means of an external lever (42).

Abstract: A composite control valve is constructed by a valve housing, first and second diaphragms mounted to the valve housing and disposed to be opposed to each other, a negative pressure working chamber defined between the first and second diaphragms to communicate with a negative pressure generating section in an engine, a first control valve adapted to be opened and closed by advancing and returning of the first diaphragm, and a second control valve adapted to be opened and closed by advancing and returning of the second diaphragm. The first control valve is incorporated into an air vent system for a fuel tank, and the second control valve is incorporated into a fuel passage system extending from the fuel tank to a fuel supply section in the engine. Thus, upon stoppage of the operation of the engine, not only the fuel passage system but also the air vent system leading to the upper space in the fuel tank are blocked simultaneously, thereby preventing release of an evaporated fuel generated in the fuel tank to the atmosphere.

Abstract: Ripper point structure includes a nose with a tapered top that initiates lift and fracture of compacted soil layers. The tapered top with an included angle of about 100 degrees just forward of the parting wear shin creates a parting stress which increases until the center portion of the soil profile is cut by a sharp leading edge of the shin. In a winged embodiment, gently sloping ripper point wings gradually enter the fracture plane left below the lifted compaction layer and initiate a second fracture of the soil profile. The wings are spaced rearwardly from the point so that the point and wear shin have enough time to lift, fracture, and part the soil profile in contact with the shank prior to any wing action.

Granted: 2010-09-07
Abstract: The peritoneal function of a peritoneal dialysis patient is examined to evaluate the condition of the patient. An examining method comprises a step of alternately repeating introduction/drainage of a predetermined quantity of a peritoneal dialyzing fluid of an osmotic pressure and introduction/drainage of a predetermined quantity of another peritoneal dialyzing fluid of an osmotic pressure different from the former one, a step of examining the drain to determine the quantity of peritoneal dialyzing fluid staying in the abdominal cavity of the patient and the concentration of a solute of interest, a step of conducting a peritoneal equilibrium test, and a step of conducting a blood test to grasp the change of the state of the blood caused by the introduction and drainage. The blood test step is executed only once. The current states of the peritoneal dialysis capability and the water removal capability of the patient can be efficiently and accurately evaluated so as to carry out peritoneal dialysis most suitable for the condition of the patient.

Abstract: A multi-channel flat valve assembly comprises multiple fluid channels which are effectively defined within the multi-channel flat valve assembly by means of laterally or transversely spaced heat-sealed regions. Accordingly, when the dunnage or cargo air bag is inflated, whereby the forces acting upon the oppositely disposed plastic sheets defining or comprising the flat valve assembly would tend to cause separation of the oppositely disposed plastic sheets with respect to each other and cause the flat valve assembly to attain an OPENED state, the disposition or presence of the heat sealed regions defining the multiple fluid channels effectively intercepts the propagation of such forces whereby the flat valve assembly tends to remain in its CLOSED state so as to effectively preserve the INFLATED state of the dunnage or cargo air bag, or considered alternatively, the dunnage or cargo air bag does not undesirably or inadvertently achieve a DEFLATED state.

Abstract: In trains a dragging air hose can snag an object on the tracks and break. A broken air hose can lead to an emergency stop or an accident caused by faulty brakes. The present invention mounts a video camera opposite a lit screen, thereby contrasting the air hose profile against a white screen in all weather and lighting conditions. Machine vision algorithms locate the air hose in a captured image from a moving train, and compute its lowest point. An alarm condition is sent to a remote location. An optional car gap detector is laser based. It helps align the car gap with the data capture for the camera. Another subsystem can include a car coupler height detection algorithm.
