Abstract: A boom mechanism that is cooperable with a lift vehicle or base structure includes a tower boom and an upper boom liftable in a dependent relationship by a single lifting mechanism. The tower boom and the upper boom are respectively pivotally secured to an upright having a fixed orientation by a tower link or the like. A timing link is secured between the tower boom and the upper boom, and a lifting mechanism is secured between the upright and the upper boom. As the upper boom is driven by the lifting mechanism, the timing link secured to the tower boom causes the tower boom to pivot about a tower boom nose pivot, thereby raising both the upper boom and the tower boom in a dependent relationship. The construction helps to minimize the need for tail and frame counterweight by controlling a position of the platform in configurations of both forward and rearward instability. As a consequence, the gross vehicle weight can be considerably reduced.

Abstract: Methods for forming a thermoplastic film with an attached closure strip are disclosed. The thermoplastic film can then be used to produce zippered reclosable plastic bags. The methods include providing a thermoplastic film web (10) having a sealing surface (12, 13) and providing a closure strip (21) having a binding surface (26, 36), both being maintained in a non-melted condition at room temperature. A heated thermoplastic binder layer (28a, 28b) is then extruded and positioned between the sealing surface (12, 13) of the film web (10) and the binding surface (26, 36) of the closure strip (21) very quickly after extrusion. The hot freshly extruded binder layer (28a, 28b) transfers enough heat to the closure strip (21) and to the film web (10) to melt the binding surface (26, 36) of the closure strip (21) and sealing surface (12, 13) of the film web (10). Pressure is then applied to the film web (10) and the closure strip (21) to seal the closure strip (21) to the film web (10). An apparatus (40, 50) for practicing the method at high speed is also disclosed.

Abstract: An oxygen sensor has a sensor body formed of a crystalline material such as zirconia with first and second electrodes disposed on a single surface thereof. The electrodes are arranged to induce irionic oxygen transport in the body along current paths in the c rystalline material at the electrode surface. The electrodes may be interdigitated or juxtaposed porous electrodes that define an exposed surface pattern of ionic conduction for sensing, and the electrodes are preferably poisoned to inhibit cross sensitivity to reactive components, such as hydrogen, that may be present in the environment. The electrodes may effect electrode-limited superionic conduction in a thin slice of single crystal material, or a polycrystalline yttria-stabilized zirconia film sensing body, and operate at a relatively low temperature in the range of 250-400 °C, preferably about 300-350 °C, with negligible leakage current or cross sensitivity, allowing reliable measurement of oxygen concentrations in the ppb range. The oxygen sensor may be fabricated together with a heater such as a resistive heating element deposited on the back face of the sensor body, or the sensor body may be attached to a heater chip. One such heater chip includes both a heating electrode, and a resistive thermal device that may, for example, provide a feedback or control signal for controlling heating temperature in the desired range. The sensors may be lithographically formed in arrays with suitable lead pads, then scored and separated, and mounted on heater chips, providing a self-contained integrated unit of versatile application.

Abstract: The system determines whether a specific assembly of elements of a network are the possible cause of a degradation in the quality of service. The various elements of the network are associated with probabilities of being the cause of the degradation of the service quality, with reference to other services running over the same network.  The system for management of services is used to determine whether a specific assembly of elements of a network are the possible cause of a degradation in the quality of at least one service. It includes a system for determining the quality of other services, and thus determining the status of the elements, as a function of the quality of the other services, and as a function of the network elements providing the other services. The various elements of the network are associated with probabilities of being the cause of the degradation of the service quality. The probabilities are determined as a function of the ratio between the sum of the degrees of degradation of the services which use the network elements. These are assessed on a scale where 1 represents the service being un-satisfactory, and 0 being the opposite case.
