Abstract: A modular spray gun that can be configured and built to operate using a selectable spray process.   The modular spray gun includes a gun body, an extension and a selectable spray atomizing component.   The basic gun body and extension are used to configure a spray gun that can operate as an air spray gun, an airless spray gun, an AAA gun or a HVLP spray gun.   The modular extension can be selected to allow circulating or non-circulating operation.   The modular extension also permits a variety of spray nozzle assemblies to be mounted thereon depending on the selected spray process to be used with the specific gun.   The modular gun body allows selective connection of an atomizing air supply and additional components specific to a particular spray process.   An indicator device and/or a relief valve is provided for spray guns using a an HVLP spray process to provide an indication that the spray gun is in compliance with the maximum nozzle air pressure limit, usually less than 10 psi. A new air valve seal assembly is also provided.   The modular gun design can accommodate electrostatic and non-electrostatic versions.

Title: Procede et appareil de calcul de la vitesse d'un terminal dans un systeme de communication hertzien
Inventor: VAYANOS ALKINOOS H
IPC: H04W64/00
Filed: 2001-10-29
Abstract: L'invention porte sur des techniques visant à calculer la vitesse d'un terminal dans un système de communication hertzien. Le déplacement du terminal entraîne un effet Doppler affectant la fréquence des différents signaux émis ou reçus par le terminal. Un procédé de cette invention consiste d'abord à déterminer les positions du terminal, d'une station de base et de chacun des satellites. Selon un autre procédé, il est également possible de déterminer une vitesse résiduelle de variation de pseudo-distance pour chaque satellite, par exemple, à partir (1) d'une erreur de fréquence de bande de base estimée englobant l'effet Doppler propre au déplacement du terminal et (2) d'un effet Doppler estimé propre au déplacement du satellite. On construit ensuite un ensemble d'équations en fonction des positions déterminées du terminal, de la station de base et des satellites et des vitesses résiduelles déterminées de variation des pseudo-distances pour les satellites. Il est donc possible de calculer la vitesse du terminal à partir de l'ensemble des équations.

Abstract: A gas separation membrane is formed from a copolyimide produced by copolymerization of monomers which include o-tolidine sulfone, at least one other hydrophilic diamine and 2,2-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl) hexafluoropropane dianhydride. One or more additional aromatic dianhydrides can optionally be included. The novel membrane exhibits an excellent combination of high selectivity of gases to be separated from a gas mixture, high permeability and strong solvent resistance to hydrocarbon chemicals. The membrane is therefore useful in separating gases from gas mixtures in which vapor or liquid hydrocarbon contaminants are present, for example in the separation of carbon dioxide from methane and/or nitrogen in the purification of natural gas.

Abstract: One-piece lining for ladles, tundishes and similar receptacles used
in the iron and steel industry characterised by an insulating and
heat resistant stucco, with suitable thickness. 
     Said lining avoids as much as possible steel and/or cast iron
infiltrations in the ladles walls, causing a longer lifetime of the
tundishes; reduces the oxidation of the walls; improves the
refractory structure; finally, thanks to its "monolicity" and
thermal insulation, it avoids the steel temperature reduction.

Abstract: A method and mechanism for ensuring quality control in printed biological
assays is provided. A multi-ejector system having a plurality of individual drop ejectors is
loaded with a variety of biofluids. Biofluids include at least a carrier fluid, a biological
material to be used in the testing, and markers, such as fluorescent dyes. Data regarding the
biofluid loaded in each of the drop ejectors is stored along with an expected signature output
of the biofluid. Particularly, the signature output represents signals from individual ones of
the fluorescent markers included within the biofluid. Once a biological assay consisting of
the biofluid drops has been printed, a scanner capable of detecting the markers scans the
biological assay and obtains signature output signals for each of the drops of the biological
assay. A comparing operation is undertaken to compare the obtained signature output
through the scanning operation, with the expected signature output signals for the biofluid
loaded in the corresponding drop ejector. The biological material itself may also be tagged
with a marker to ensure its inclusion in the biofluid. By the comparing operation, it is
possible to verify the biofluids were loaded in the proper drop ejector, including the proper
biological material, and that the drop ejectors are functioning properly.
