Abstract: An inner damping member (20) is axially engaged with an outer housing. The outer housing (10) is connectable to a tensioner arm (11). A wegde member (3 0) connected to an immoveable mounting member (40) is axially engaged with an inner portion of the inner damping member. The outer housing is axially moveable relative to the wedge member. A spring (50) bears upon and urges th e outer housing away from an end cap (60). The end cap comprises a rod (70), which extends axially within the wedge member and has an end connected to th e inner damping member. The rod transmits a spring load force from the end cap to the inner damping member such that the inner damping member radially expands against the outer housing in response to the spring load force, thereby creating a frictional force between the inner damping member and the outer housing which damps an outer housing movement in proportion to the spring force.

Abstract: The invention relates to an authentication arrangement, which is based on a capacitive fingerprint sensor. The invention also relates to a manufacturing method of such a fingerprint sensor. One essential idea in implementing this invention is to fabricate a capacitive fingerprint sensor on a plastic substrate (363) with an embedded integrated circuit chip (380). The invention also describes a way to create two or three dimensional forms for electrode structures (321, 322, 325, 365, 366) that can be used to optimize the performance of the sensor. When the three dimensional structure is designed to follow the shape of a finger, a very small pressure is required when sliding the finger along the sensor surface. This way the use of the sensor is ergonomic and the measurement is made very reliable. The inventive fabrication method describes the way, how to connect and embed an integrated circuit containing measurements electronics with a batch processed larger scale electrode configuration that is used for capturing the capacitive image of the fingerprint.

Abstract: A sensor dispensing instrument is adapted to receive a generally circular sensor pack containing a plurality of blood glucose sensors. Each of the sensors are disposed in sensor cavities, each of which is in fluid communication with a corresponding desiccant cavity and has a support wall that assists in directing the sensor as its being ejected from the cavity. The sensor pack is loaded on an indexing disk in the instrument such that when a slide actuator on the instrument is moved toward a testing position, a feed mechanism engaged by the slide actuator moves a knife blade thereon toward one of the sensor cavities. The knife blade pierces a portion of a foil covering the sensor cavity and engages the sensor disposed in the cavity to thereby eject the sensor from the sensor cavity. The continued sliding of the slide actuator toward its testing position results in the sensor being completely ejected from the sensor cavity and disposed in a testing position with a testing end of the sensor projecting from the instrument. Once the blood analyzing test is completed, the slide actuator is moved in the opposite direction towards its standby position. As the slide actuator is moved away from its testing position, the indexing disk with the sensor pack thereon is rotated so that the next one of sensor cavities is positioned so that the sensor therein can be used for the next blood glucose test that is to be performed. The instrument includes circuitry to obtain test data from the sensor pack and to display testing data.

Abstract: A coherent laser radar or lidar device (2; 20; 84; 90) for measuring wind speed is described that comprises a transmitter for transmitting a beam of light to a remote probe volume (6; 54), a receiver for detecting back-scattered light and an analyser for calculating wind velocity at the remote probe volume from the Doppler shift in frequency of the detected back-scattered light. The analyser is arranged to monitor for the presence of, and/or to ensure the calculated wind speed is corrected for, any Doppler frequency components of the detected back-scattered light that arise from back-scatter off cloud located at a range greater than the range of the remote probe volume. It is described how the lidar (2; 20; 84; 90) may be scanned and wind velocity components calculated by fitting the scanned line of sight velocity values to a predetermined function. Furthermore, it is outlined how an initial fit may be performed to determine which points are to be used in this calculation. The incorporation of a back scatter profiling means, such as ceilometer (82), is also described. A wind turbine (902) incorporating such a device (90) is also described.

Abstract: A fluid handling system for drilling cuttings utilizes a constant and gravity managed liquid level between a substantially atmospheric separator and a shale shaker to maximize fluid residence time within the separator and ensure substantially all of the gas entrained in the cuttings is evolved and passed to a flare thus preventing evolution of the gas at the shale shaker. Solids from the separator are combined with liquid recirculation from and returning to the shale shaker. Optionally, a vacuum degasser is positioned between the separator and the shale shaker and separated gases are passed from the degasser to the flare. This method and system is particularly applicable to balanced, underbalanced and air drilling operations where the flow of gas is intermittent and unpredictable.
