Abstract: Aluminum alloy compositions are disclosed, which include small amounts of calcium that result in improved surface properties of the cast aluminum. The calcium, and up to 0.25% grain refiners, are added along with alkaline earth metals, transition metals and/or rare earth metals to the aluminum alloy as a melt. The addition results in improved appearance, substantially reduced surface imperfections and reduced surface oxidation in cast ingot aluminum and aluminum alloys. The addition of small amounts of these additives, surprisingly were found to substantially eliminate vertical folds, pits and ingot cracking in more than one ingot casting technique. The additions also improved the appearance of the ingots, including reflectance. As a result, the ingots could be reduced or worked essentially right out of the casting without first conditioning the surface by, for example, scalping. Also disclosed is a method of improving the surface properties and preventing surface imperfections and cracking of cast aluminum alloys. The method includes the steps of adding calcium to a molten aluminum alloy that is essentially free of Be casting the aluminum alloy using any commonly used technique.

Abstract: A hole opener and method for using same which allows for a greater number of cone cutters (135) to be attached to the hole opener. The support structure provided by the present invention uses a barrel which is attached to the drill stem (105) to effectively increase the diameter of the drill stem (105) so that additional cutters (135) may be attached to the hole opener. Using the barrel structure, the structural integrity of the tool is not compromised, and a support structure for the cutters (135) is provided. The cone cutters may be removable from the barrel. The removable structure is provided by placing a bolt (305) inside the segments (140) which is used to mate the segment (140) with a pocket (145) attached to the barrel. This results in a very versatile tool in that the same boring head may be used for boring various types of materials. The barrel structure of the present invention also provides a means for trapping cones (135) inside the barrel to prevent the cone cutters (135) from being left inside the hole. The tapered shape of the hole opener allows it to be forced back to the point of entry after drilling in order to displace debris. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for an adaptive set management in a communication system are disclosed. Certain levels of an imbalance between a forward link and a reverse link are always present in a communication system. Although severe levels of an imbalance cause a detrimental effect on quality of communication and throughput, the imbalance is an issue only if it degrades throughput by one rate on the forward link. Consequently, an adaptive set management evaluates an imbalance among sectors in a subscriber station's list in accordance with the quality metric of the forward link and the reverse link, and removes from the subscriber station's list only a sector that causes severe imbalance. Although retaining a sector in the subscriber station's list may improve throughput, it may negatively affect other functions of the communication system, e.g., power control. Therefore, a method of power control is modified if a level of imbalance affecting the power control is detected.

Abstract: A stent for maintaining an open passageway through a body lumen, such as the prostatic urethra of a male patient, includes a coil segment and a flexible polymer material encapsulating the coil segment. The coil segment defines a lumen extending therethrough and includes a distal portion, a middle portion, and a proximal portion. Both the distal and proximal portions of the coil segment have a greater outer diameter in comparison to the middle portion, so as to enhance retention of the stent after placement within the patient's body. The coil segment is made from a wound element that includes one or more spaced windings. The flexible polymer material is disposed between adjacent spaced windings to form an imperforate flexible webbing that encapsulates the coil segment and prevents the growth of tissue between the windings and into the coil segment's lumen when the stent is placed within the patient.

Abstract: A sonic drilling head includes a spindle which is both rotated and vibrated at sonic frequency to effect ground penetration of members such as drill rods, etc. Two pairs of rotating eccentric masses are mounted in a sine generator housing. The pairs of masses have intersecting axis. A spiral bevel gear and drive shaft rotate the first pair of masses which engage the second pair of masses so that the pairs of masses are driven in opposite directions. Rotation is imparted to the spindle through a geared bearing isolated by a pack of precision disc springs, which also cooperate with a second set of precision disc springs to isolate the vibrations of the rotating eccentric masses from an outer housing of the sonic drill head.

Abstract: A syringe plunger driver system capable of capturing syringes of widely varying sizes comprises a pair of asymmetric plunger retainer arms pivotally mounted to plunger driver. The system includes a low profile driver having a length that exceeds its width so that it may be mounted adjacent control modules and other operational modules. The arms are biased towards each other and one arm is longer than the other with a notch on an inside edge to receive the tip of the shorter arm when capturing small syringe flanges. A rotation knob mounted to the front surface of the low profile driver forces the arms apart when rotated to a first rotation position. A force sensor (94) is mounted in the driver to detect occlusions in the fluid line. A processor monitors the force sensed by the force sensor and provides an alarm if the force exceeds a threshold. The driver includes a force concentrator (84) that defines a pushing surface (71) adapted to press against a plunger flange so that the force applied to the plunger flange is concentrated at a defined location for more accurate measurement.
