Title: Product on demand delivery system having an agitator assembly
Inventor: MARIMAN NATHAN ALBERT
IPC: A01C7/08
Filed: 2003-07-28
Abstract: A product on demand delivery system directs product from a main hopper to an application unit. An air pump directs pressurized air to a plurality of air supply hoses. The air supply hoses are coupled to air inlets located on the nozzle assembly of the main hopper. Opposite the air inlets are corresponding product outlets for receiving the air streams and product entrained in the air stream. The product outlets are coupled to product supply hoses that are in turn coupled to auxiliary hoppers located on the application units. The corresponding air inlets and product outlets have baffles extending above the air inlet and outlets. Gaps are formed between adjacent baffles. An agitator assembly having radially extending fingers is located above the baffles. The radially extending fingers extend into the gaps formed by the adjacent baffles.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un mécanisme de différentiel permettant dans les virages à la roue externe au virage de rouler plus vite que la roue interne tout en maintenant la vitesse de cette dernière à la vitesse du roulement. Cette différence entre les vitesses des deux roues de traction est limitée à une valeur crête, fonctionnelle des dimensions de véhicule. Le mécanisme est constitué d'un ensemble de pignonnerie en train hypocycloïdal comme illustré dans la figure (1), il répond à la répartition de la quantité du mouvement développée dans les corps de véhicules par effet de la force centrifuge engendrée le long des virages afin de permettre aux roues de traction d'avoir des vitesses différentes et ceux en fonction des paramètres qui régissent les virages. En d'autre terme, le mécanisme a habilité à recevoir un surplus à la vitesse de roulement et à le communiquer à la roue externe au virage. Le mécanisme inventé fait en sorte que, d'une part, la puissance motrice et le couple moteur soient équitablement répartis entre les deux roues de traction quelque soit le virage ou l'état du terrain (adhérence) et d'autre part, la roue externe au virage soit en mesure d'acquérir une puissance supérieure à la puissance motrice.

Abstract: A retroreflective coating system and a method of providing the coating system on a substrate are disclosed. The method includes applying a color-providing composition, such as a pigmented basecoat composition, and applying a clearcoat composition. After application and cure, the color-providing composition forms a color-providing film layer, and the clearcoat composition forms a clearcoat film layer. The color-providing composition and the clearcoat composition are cross-linkable. Either one, or both, of the color-providing composition and the clearcoat composition include retroreflective microspheres. The color-providing composition is applied to the substrate to form an uncured film layer of the color-providing composition. Next, the clearcoat composition is applied wet-on-wet to the uncured film layer of the color-providing composition such that an uncured film layer of the clearcoat composition is formed on the uncured film layer of the color-providing composition.

Abstract: A pivotable folding utility table includes a table top having a pair of support pedestals pivotally attached thereto. A first pivotal support brace including a distal end and a proximal end attached to the first support pedestal. A second pivotal support brace including a distal end and a proximal end attached to the second support pedestal. The distal ends of the first and second pivotal support braces pivotally attached to a retaining assembly preferably mounted in relation to the table top. Specifically, the retaining assembly includes a cross-brace member operably disposed through openings formed in the distal ends of the first and second pivotal support braces, thus providing a pivotal engagement in relation to the table top. Alternatively, a second retaining assembly including a cross-brace member may be mounted in relation to the table top, wherein the distal end of the first pivotal support brace pivotally engages the first retaining member and the distal end of the second pivotal support brace pivotally engages the second retaining member. In addition, the first and second support pedestals may comprise at least one support leg, wherein each support leg of the first and second support pedestals are laterally offset from each other so as to permit an offset displacement of the support legs when the support pedestals are disposed in a collapsed position.

Title: Turbo recuperator device
Inventor: BUNKER RONALD SCOTT
IPC: F02C7/18
Filed: 2003-12-18
Abstract: A device and method for recuperating a gas turbine engine comprises a compressor [10] being configured to receive a coolant fluid stream, to compress the coolant fluid stream and to discharge the compressed coolant fluid stream to a turbine [14]  in fluid communication with the compressor [10]. The compressed coolant fluid stream undergoing thermal exchange within the turbine [14], exit the turbine [14]  thereafter. A source of a working fluid stream [44] is in fluid communication with the turbine [14]. The working fluid stream [44] is fluidly isolated from a portion of the coolant fluid stream and undergoing thermodynamic expansion through the turbine [14]  to extract energy therefrom. Where desired, the entire coolant fluid stream is fluidly isolated from the working fluid stream [44]. At least a portion of the coolant fluid stream is channeled downstream of the turbine [14] to supply a preheated process fluid stream to another process.

Abstract: Carbon steels of high performance are disclosed that contain a three-phase microstructure consisting of grains of ferrite (11) fused with grains that contain dislocated lath structures in which laths of martensite (13) alternate with thin films of austenite (14). The structure includes the ferrite grains (11) fused with martensite-austenite grains (12), and each of the martensite-austenite grains (12) is of the dislocated lath structure, with substantially parallel laths (13) consisting of grains of martensite-phase crystals, the laths separated by thin films (14) of retained austenite phase. The microstructure can be formed by a unique method of austenization followed by multi-phase cooling in a manner that avoids bainite and pearlite formation and precipitation at phase interfaces. The desired microstructure can be obtained by casting, heat treatment, on-line rolling, forging, and other common metallurgical processing procedures, and yields superior combinations of mechanical and corrosion properties.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne, d'une part un système de pompage extracardiaque d'appoint de la circulation sanguine, y compris le débit cardiaque, chez un patient, sans qu'aucun composant n'en soit relié au coeur du patient, et d'autre part les procédés d'utilisation correspondants. Un mode de réalisation du système extracardiaque intravasculaire (10) utilise une pompe (32) à conduits d'entrée (50) et de sortie (52) calibrés et configurés pour pouvoir s'implanter en intravasculaire par un vaisseau non-primaire, ce qui fait qu'il peut se placer à l'endroit voulu à l'intérieur du système vasculaire du patient. Le système comprend une pompe subcardiaque qui peut être mue directement ou électromagnétiquement depuis l'intérieur ou l'extérieur du patient. La pompe est configurée pour opérer en continu ou en mode pulsé, en synchronisme avec le coeur du patient, ce qui réduit potentiellement la pression diastolique du coeur. Selon un autre mode de réalisation, le système est disposé extracorporellement, le conduit d'entrée et le conduit de sortie étant branchés par voie percutanée sur un vaisseau non primaire de façon à faire circuler le sang arrivant dans et partant du vaisseau non primaire ou le sang circulant entre le vaisseau non primaire et un autre vaisseau sanguin à l'intérieur du système vasculaire du patient.
