Abstract: A supplemental restraint for a primary vehicle restraint system for an auto-rack railroad car which reduces or eliminates movement of the vehicle in the auto-rack railroad car. The supplemental restraint is adapted to be positioned on a grating between the tire of the vehicle and the primary restraint. One embodiment of the supplemental restraint includes a body and an expander connected to the body. After the primary restraint is locked in place on the grating, the expander of the supplemental restraint is expanded. The expansion causes a more secure engagement between the tire and the primary restraint. This causes a high level of engagement between the tire and the primary restraint system indirectly through the supplemental restraint. The supplemental restraint also maintains a higher contact area on the tire regardless of the position of the primary restraint.

Abstract: In an output stage for a hearing aid (62), a reduction in the power consumption for low level input signals is obtained through the use of a tim e- averaging output driver (42), whereby the output transducer is subject to three different conditions of operations, this being obtained through the generation of three-state control signals for control of a H-bridge. The thr ee- state control signals are generated through the use of a time-averaging devi ce whereby the two-level output of a single bit Sigma-Delta modulator (21) is transformed to a set of control signals that, at any given time, can assume one of three states. In a preferred embodiment the time-averaging device is a delay (40).
Patent CA-2559068-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WILLIAMSON CHRISTIAN
IPC: C02F1/32
Filed: 2005-03-10
Abstract: An ultraviolet fluid treatment system having feedback control using a kinetic model and a reactor model that interact with one another. The kinetic model uses readily measured fluid properties upstream and downstream of a radiation zone to calculate the conversion of a target contaminant as it passes through the fluid treatment system. This obviates the need to measure the contaminant concentration directly, which generally is too slow to permit real-time control. A reactor model relates system operating cost to system operating parameters, such as electrical power consumption and/or rate of oxidant addition, where applicable. The reactor model is linked to the kinetic model and is used to optimize operating cost by adjusting system operating parameters based on a comparison between the conversion obtained from the kinetic model and the overall treatment objectives. A control center, an ultraviolet fluid treatment apparatus, and a method of treating a fluid are also disclosed.
