Abstract: A pallet assembly includes an upper deck (12) and a lower deck (14) spaced by a plurality of columns (16). The weight of the pallet is reduced without significant reduction in strength by providing only a single cross beam in each of the upper and lower reinforcement members and orienting them perpendicular to one another. The reinforcement members (50) are minimized for weight reduction and for improved performance in heat tests. The peripheral rail of the upper reinforcement member is reduced such that it rests on only an inwardly open recess on an inner corner of each of the corner columns. This reduces the size and weight of the upper reinforcement member, while still providing support to the upper deck. Additionally, the peripheral rails of both the upper and lower decks are reduced in length such that either ledge does not directly support them while the pallet is stored on a rack. As a result, in the case of sufficient heat source on the pallets, the pallets will eventually collapse without interference from the reinforcement members and at least partially smother the heat source.

Granted: 2012-05-01
Abstract: Methods and apparatuses to direct a drill bit of a directional drilling assembly are disclosed. The methods and apparatuses employ the use of bi-directional actuators that are capable of displacing a hybrid steering sleeve in positive and negative directions. The bi-directional actuators are capable of greater control and precision in their actuations than traditional "engaged-disengaged" unidirectional actuators, thereby allowing for more precise directional drilling operations. The bi-directional actuators are preferably driven by drilling fluids and may optionally be shielded to lessen the erosive effects thereof.

Abstract: Selon cette invention, divers modes de réalisation visent à répondre au besoin de réduire les délais de transfert associés aux transferts HRPD (données par paquets à haut débit) inter-AN (réseau d'accès)/1XEV-DO. Cette invention permet à un terminal d'accès (AT) (101) comprenant une session de données par paquets active d'effectuer un transfert intercellulaire avec coupure d'un réseau d'accès source (121, 221) à un réseau d'accès cible (122, 222) sans savoir à contraindre la session de données à passer en mode dormant. Contrairement aux approches de transfert intercellulaire avec coupure connues qui impliquent une coordination par un centre de commutation mobile (CCM), l'approche de cette invention utilise une signalisation entre homologues et aucune implication du CCM, telle que celle observée entre des réseaux d'accès source et cible ou PCF (131,132, 231, 232). Des informations de session de données du côté de la source sont par exemple transférées par le biais d'une nouvelle messagerie A13 à l'homologue côté cible de l'entité source pour réduire d'une manière générale la signalisation entre l'équipement source et l'équipement cible.

Abstract: Nanotube transfer devices controllably form a nanotube-based electrically conductive channel between a first node and a second node under the control of a control structure. A control structure induces a nanotube channel element to deflect so as to form and unform the conductive channel between the nodes. The nanotube channel element is not in permanent electrical contact with either the first node or the second node. The nanotube channel element may have a floating potential in certain states of the device. Each output node may be connected to an arbitrary network of electrical components. The nanotube transfer device may be volatile or non-volatile. In preferred embodiments, the nanotube transfer device is a three-terminal device or a four-terminal device.  Electrical circuits are provided that ensure proper switching of nanotube transfer devices interconnected with arbitrary circuits. The circuits may overdrive the control structure to induce the desired state of channel information.

Abstract: A surgical clip applying apparatus has a handle, a body extending distally from the handle defining a longitudinal axis, surgical clips disposed within the body and a movable member biased in the housing adjacent a wedge plate. An actuator longitudinally advances the wedge plate a predetermined distance to a distal most position. The wedge plate has an end between first and second jaw portions at the distal most position. The wedge plate end maintains the jaw assembly in the spaced apart position during loading of the surgical clip and the wedge plate end reduces torque and external forces on the jaw assembly during loading. The movable member holds the wedge plate in the distal most position during loading and is deflected at a conclusion of loading to release the wedge plate. The movable member allows a longitudinal proximal retraction of the wedge plate from the distal most position.

Abstract: An apparatus for developing and practicing golf skills that is readily portable and which can be used in relatively restricted or confined areas is provided. The apparatus includes a shot indicator mounted on a vertical shaft which is caused to rise on the vertical shaft during use as indicator of the effectiveness of the shot in terms of distance of flight which would have been attained by a golf ball if driven by a blow of equal force and direction. The shot indicator is caused to rise on the vertical shaft by a user hitting a target which is laterally spaced from the vertical shaft. A target support is rotatably attached to the vertical shaft at one end and supports the target at an opposite end. Rotation of the target support releases a compression spring which acts on the shot indicator causing it to rise on the vertical shaft.
