Title: Orifice valve for bulk solids
Inventor: MICHAEL WERNER SHAWN
IPC: F16K3/00
Filed: 2007-02-09
Granted: 2011-07-21
Abstract: This invention relates to an orifice valve (10) having a moveable gate to control the flow of solids in a closed conveying system. The invention encompasses a valve housing (12) with two complementary sections (18), each of a unitary construction. A single plate is laser cut and bent to present a first planar surface (20), two opposed sidewalls (24) and an end wall (28). The sidewalls (24) include an integral flange section (26) which presents planar surfaces that are placed in facing relationship with the planar flange surfaces of a second section (18) so that the two form a closed cavity. A blade (40) is received in the cavity and is reciprocal between open and closed positions so as to accommodate the flow of material or to block the flow. Appropriate retainers hold the two sections in place. In the preferred embodiment a second end wall (30) is also integral with the housing section (18) and is formed from the same plate stock as the first planar section, the sidewalls (24) and the first end wall (28). The second end wall (30) extends perpendicular to the planar surface (20) of the housing (12) and is bent 180° to extend in a second direction that is parallel and opposite and is then bent again at an obtuse angle to extend in a third direction toward the planar surface (20) and finally is bent again at a second obtuse angle to extend in a fourth direction parallel to and in contact with the planar surface (20). A novel guide seal member (64) comprises spaced planar elements (66) which are adapted to be sandwiched between the two opposed flanges (26) of the housing sections (18), a second section which extends transversely to the planar elements (66) and presents a bearing surface (68a) across which the blade moves (40), and a third section which extends transversely to the planar elements (66) at the opposite end thereof and overlaps the flanges (26). A shim is received between the spaced planar elements (66) of the guide seal member (64) to insure proper spacing of the housing sections (12).

Title: A multifunctional restrictive valve
Inventor: BROWN MICHAEL
IPC: G05D23/02
Filed: 2007-04-23
Granted: 2011-07-28
Abstract: A multifunctional restrictive valve for controlling the flow of water therethrough. The valve has a main body (802,820) with a flow channel through the main body. The main body receives water upstream thereof"' through an inlet port and passes it out through an outlet port at the downstream end of the body. A flow control assembly is located in the flow channel and includes a temperature sensor/actuator (822) acting on a piston (814) to move, when the temperature sensor heats up the piston, to block water flow control ports. The flow -control assembly also includes an override feature wherein the piston is located within a slide (808) and the flow control ports are located in the slide. By moving the slide away from the piston when the piston is blocking the flow control ports, the temperature sensor and piston may be overridden and flow may resume through the main body.

Title: Method and apparatus for copying objects in an object-oriented environment using a multiple-transaction technique
Inventor: HEROLD STEVEN D
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2009-06-02
Granted: 2014-09-18
Abstract: A large number of objects, such as objects representing beams and columns in an object- oriented enterprise engineering system, may be copied in a model database by partitioning the objects according to certain criteria into a number of ordered small copy groups and copying the objects in each group as an atomic operation. Objects that are to be copied are organized into the ordered groups, and the groups are copied in order, such that all predecessors of a given object are copied into the database before, or in the same small operation as, the given object. If a large copy operation abnormally terminates before all the small copy operations have been completed, the model database is, nevertheless, left in a consistent state, and the copy operation may be resumed from the point of interruption. Furthermore, the number of objects that may be copied is not constrained by the amount of memory available in the system.
