Abstract: A gearbox is drivingly coupled to a seed meter by a drive element. The drive element comprises a drive shaft on which is mounted a multifaceted sleeve. The multifaceted sleeve is pinned to the drive shaft by a cotter pin. The cotter pin provides torque protection by defining a torque transmission limit. The multifaceted sleeve is driven by a gearbox output. The gearbox output is provided with a hexagonal opening into which the hexagonal sleeve is received. The drive shaft is provided with a drive coupling. The drive coupling comprises an annular axially extending bore having aligned transversely extending apertures passing therethrough. The drive coupling is coupled to the spindle of the seed meter.  The spindle is received in the bore. A readily releasable pin extends between the drive shaft and spindle.

Abstract: A mass spectrometer is disclosed wherein a relatively energetic pulse of ions having a relatively narrow spread of mass to charge ratios are ejected from a quadrupole ion trap T2 and received in an ion trap TO upstream of a Time of Flight mass analyser. The ions are collisionally cooled within the ion trap TO and are pulsed out of the ion trap TO and into an extraction region 3 of the Time of Flight mass analyser without substantially exciting the ions. This enables improved operation with the Time of Flight mass analyser. According to another embodiment parent ions are fragmented and the resulting fragment ions are stored in two ion traps having different low mass cut-offs. The trapping system enables MS/MS experiments to be performed with a very high duty cycle.

Abstract: Un système qui permet de sécuriser un travailleur sur une structure surélevée comprend les éléments qui suivent. Un filin d'ancrage souple extensible à travers la structure; des crochets, aux extrémités opposées du filin d'ancrage souple pour engager la structure; et un dispositif d'entreposage de filin pour entreposer de manière libérable une partie du filin d'ancrage souple, afin de régler la longueur du filin et sa tension pour engager les crochets en position d'ancrage avec la structure et fixer le filin d'ancrage à la structure. Une extrémité de filin de contention est raccordable de manière libérable au filin d'ancrage souple. L'extrémité opposée du filin de contention est raccordée à un harnais que le travailleur peut porter. Le système est un équipement léger et fiable facilement transportable et utilisable par un travailleur pour le sécuriser sur une structure surélevée, comme un conteneur à marchandises, afin d'effectuer un travail en toute sécurité. Ledit système agit soit pour empêcher un travailleur de trop se rapprocher du bord de la structure ou, si le filin de contention est suffisamment long, le système agit pour stopper une chute, si un travailleur glisse sur le bord de la structure.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for utilizing a downhole deployment valve (DDV) to isolate a pressure in a portion of a bore are disclosed. Any combination of fail safe features may be used with or incorporated into the DDV such as redundant valve members, an upward opening flapper valve or a metering flapper below a sealing valve. In one aspect, a barrier or diverter located in the bore above a valve member of the DDV permits passage through the bore when the valve member is open and actuates when the valve member is closed. Once actuated, the barrier or diverter either stops or diverts any dropped objects prior to the dropped object reaching and potentially damaging the valve member. In another aspect, the tool string tripped in above the DDV includes an acceleration actuated brake that anchors the tool string to a surrounding tubular if the tool string is dropped.

Abstract: A wireless communication system has a central computer (36), one or more access points (34) and personal badges (32) that communicate with the one or more access points (34). The central computer (36) includes a database indexed by either user identification codes or badge serial numbers. When a user activates a badge (32), the central computer assigns the badge so that any message for the user is directed to the badge. The user may also access his personal data section in a central computer database through the badge (32) while the activation is valide. When the user deactivates the badge, the central computer (36) deletes the association and returns the badge (32) to a non-user-specific state. Where docking stations are available to rest the badges (32) not being used, the badges (32) may be configured so that they are activated when decoupled from the docking stations and deactivated when coupled to the docking stations.

Abstract: A pallet assembly includes an upper deck and a lower deck spaced by a plurality of columns. In one embodiment, the columns are snap-fit into the upper deck and the lower deck. 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 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.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système et un procédé permettant de filtrer des signaux dans un système de télécommunication. Ledit système permet de diminuer les exigences en taille du matériel et de la puce par le biais de la connexion sélective d'un filtre le long de voies de l'émetteur et du récepteur d'un émetteur-récepteur. Lors du fonctionnement, des signaux générés par le contrôleur sont destinés à connecter le filtre le long de la voie de l'émetteur, lorsque l'émetteur-récepteur est en mode de transmission, et à connecter le filtre le long de la voie du récepteur, lorsque ledit émetteur-récepteur est en mode de réception. Ledit contrôleur permet de générer des signaux supplémentaires servant à régler au moins un paramètre du filtre en fonction de la voie connectée ou encore du mode fonctionnel dudit émetteur-récepteur. Dans une variation, le contrôleur permet de régler les paramètres d'éléments supplémentaires couplés au filtre de manière à contrôler le traitement des signaux de l'émetteur et du récepteur. Ce système et ce procédé sont, notamment, appropriés pour contrôler le filtrage de signaux au niveau de l'extrémité avant de l'émetteur-récepteur possédant une architecture de conversion directe et, généralement certains sont adéquats à la réalisation des applications de multiplexage temporel.
