Abstract: A blowout latch is provided to latch a first panel to a second panel. The latch is coupled to the first panel and engaged with the second panel. The latch includes a biasing mechanism which is disengagable under pressure to move the first panel relative to the second panel. The latch may also be selectively disengaged with a lesser force than that required to overcome the biasing mechanism by bypassing the biasing mechanism. When manually disengaged, the latch maintains a biasing load on a bolt of the latch. A trigger of the latch is provided to bypass the biasing mechanism and disengage a roller assembly of the latch from the second panel. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Mechanical interfaces in a backup governing system for a variable
pitch propeller between stationary 12 and rotatable propeller sections are
avoided in a variable pitch propeller system 24 that includes a backup
governing system carried by the propeller hub 10 which is hydraulically
interposed between a main control for the propeller and a propeller blade
moving, double acting piston 34. The system includes a spool valve 68
including a spool 70 movable between a plurality of metering positions along
with first 90 and second 102 opposing springs applying oppositely directed
biasing forces to the valve member. A flyweight assembly 76 is connected to
the spool and applies a speed dependent valve positioning force to the spool in
opposition to a first of the springs and in addition to the second of the springs.
A piston valve 108 is operatively associated with the second spring and
operable to change the bias applied by the second spring to the spool. The
piston valve includes a valve seat 110 interposed between a transfer bearing
20 and the double acting piston and operable to control the flow of a fine pitch
stream (P f ) to a fine pitch side of the double acting piston. A fluid passage
interconnects the piston valve and the spool valve and is arranged so that
when the spool valve moves to a predetermined position, the fine pitch stream
is applied to the piston valve to initiate backup operation.

mounted on a substrate (124). When an object (10) passes in proximity to the light sensors (128) light energy (146)
from a plurality of light sources (142) is either reflected from the object (10) to the light sensors (128), or is
emitted directly to the light sensors (128). The light energy (146) is then converted to individual signals
and transmitted through circuit traces (126) in a printed circuit board (110) to a local controller. The

Abstract: A grand piano (1a) generates acoustic tones through vibrations of strings
(1f) and sound board (1g) so that the acoustic tones are converted to analog
audio signals at recording points (L/ M/ R) over the sound board (1g), and a
group of waveform data sets are produced from the analog audio signal
through sampling and analog-to-digital conversion; when electronic tones are
generated, delay parameters and volume parameters are determined on the basis
of differences between the recording points (L/ M/ R) and tone radiating
points (L/ M/ R) occupied by loud speakers (31/ 32/ 33), the sets of waveform
data series are sequentially read out from the group of waveform data sets and
are modified with the delay parameters and volume parameters so that the
electronic tones become close to the acoustic tones.

Abstract: Methods and systems for modifying DOCSIS-based transmission paths for communication in higher frequency and/or wireless environments, such as wireless terrestrial communication systems and satellite communication systems. An inner turbo-code is combined with a DOCSIS based Reed-Solomon ("RS") forward error correction ("FEC") coding scheme, to produce a concatenated turbo-RS code (other FEC codes can be utilized). In phase and quadrature phase ("I-Q") processing is utilized to enable relatively low cost up-converter implementations. The I-Q processing is preferably performed at baseband, essentially pre-compensating for analog variations in the transmit path. Power amplifier on/off control capable of controlling on/off RF power control of remote transmitters is modulated on a transmit cable to reduce the need for a separate cable.

Abstract: A system reduces the risk of eavesdropping on data used to access an establishment's computer network. The system comprises a personal area network (PAN) access device that couples a low power, low frequency modulated signal to a wearer and a personal area network receiver for receiving the modulated signal. The personal area network access device includes a personal data storage unit and a low power data modulator. The low power data modulator modulates a low power, low frequency signal with the data from the storage unit. This signal is capacitively coupled to the wearer's body so it may be emitted to a PAN receiver. When the wearer brings a body part such as a finger in proximity to or in contact with the PAN receiver, the receiver may receive the modulated signal. The signal may then be demodulated to obtain the user data so it may be encoded in data messages provided to a server of an establishment computer system. The user data may then be used to access marketing data for the customer or to implement a financial transaction. An advantage of the PAN transmitter is that it may be incorporated within a piece of jewelry such as a watch, necklace, or bracelet as a wearable computer. Transmission of the modulated signal by the low power, low frequency signal emitted by the wearer's body helps reduce the opportunity for eavesdropping as the signal is not radiated at a distance that facilitates undetected eavesdropping. Thus, access to marketing and financial transaction data for a customer is made more secure by a system of the present invention.
