Abstract: A vehicle wheel hub lug bolt removal and installation tool and process for installing and removing wheel hub lugs is described. The tool and process are utilized to install and remove lug bolts to and from a wheel hub having a thickness dimension and spaced axially from a brake linkage on a vehicle. The tool may include a ram cylinder having a cylinder body and a piston rod movable along an operational axis. A wheel lug pad is releasably mounted to the piston and moves therewith along the operational axis. A rigid elongated tubular frame including an abutment surface at one end and a ram cylinder mounting surface releasably mount the ram cylinder with the piston rod positioned such that the operational axis intersects the abutment surface. The abutment surface includes a thickness dimension along the operational axis that is sufficient to permit insertion of the abutment surface between a wheel hub and brake assembly of a vehicle. A wheel hub receiving recess is formed by the frame between the abutment surface and wheel lug pad.

Abstract: A variable-incline ramp system guides a vehicle through the incline between a first site and a second site while at all times maintaining the vehicle in its natural horizontal orientation. The ramp system includes a separate set of rails for guiding the front and the rear of the vehicle. In profile, the two sets of rails form a parallelogram having one pair of sides of a length equal to the wheelbase of the vehicle. So long as these parallelogram sides are horizontally oriented, the vehicle travelling along the rails will maintain its normal orientation because its wheelbase axis will be parallel to the horizontal sides of the parallelogram. In one embodiment suited for use in marine settings, the rails are movably connected to the first and second sites such that as the site elevations change, the parallelogram is free to skew while still remaining a parallelogram with the same length sides.

Title: Method of preparation of chocolate crumb
Inventor: MILLER VAN
IPC: A23G1/56
Filed: 1996-12-23
Granted: 2000-08-15
Abstract: Chocolate crumb is prepared to be used later in the manufacture of milk chocolate. The present invention provides a process whereby only a portion of the sugar constituent of the chocolate crumb is first caramelized by being hydrated with a portion of the milk which is to be utilized in the process. That hydrated sugar with the milk is heated so as to caramelize the sugar and so as to substantially drive off the water constituent of that first portion of the milk. The temperature and the length of time for which the heating continues will govern the degree of caramelization. The then caramelized slurry batch is added to the remainder of the milk to be used, and dried so as to drive off the remaining water carried into the mix by the additional milk. That dried mix is thereafter mixed with anhydrous cocoa butter and anhydrous cocoa liquor in the proper amounts so as to form the chocolate crumb. This process provides a more economical way to produce chocolate crumb, since there is less requirement for large and expensive caramelization and heat exchange equipment, and the process is easier to control.

Title: Railway truck castings and method and cores for making castings
Inventor: CALLAHAN THOMAS R
IPC: B61F5/00
Filed: 1998-01-05
Granted: 2002-03-26
Abstract: Improvements in cast metal sideframes and bolsters for railway trucks are disclosed, along with improvements in the processes of casting such products and the cores used in the casting process. In one aspect, the cores are consolidated to provide two one-piece end cores, a one-piece center core, and a bottom center core for the sideframe and two one-piece end cores and a center core for the bolster. The consolidated cores may include cores to define various bolt holes. In another aspect, various cores may be made with step joints for interlocking support without weight-supporting chaplets. In another aspect, a locator boss may be formed on one or more of the cores for proper positioning of the core on the drag mold. Other improvements disclosed include providing a radial draft on the casting surrounding a bolt hole at a core parting or joint line so that nuts and washers may be evenly loaded. In the bolster interior, ribs may be straightened. In another aspect, core prints are used to support the cores on the drag mold surface. The core prints are connected to the core body through necks or bridges that define holes in the cast metal piece. The juncture of the core print and drag mold are spaced from a perimeter of the neck so that any metal fin formed at this juncture is on the exterior of the casting.

Abstract: A fish finder having two 1D transducer arrays vertically arranged on a ship's hull. Each 1D transducer array provides a beam having a narrow width on a plane parallel to a plane in the transducer arrangement direction, and a fan-like beam on a plane crossing the plane. Ultrasonics are transmitted toward and received from the target on the first plane, by using the fan beam of the first 1D transducer array, and received from the second plane perpendicular to the first plane by using the fan beam of the second 1D transducer array. While the beam direction of the first 1D transducer array is gradually changed, that of the second 1D transducer array is rapidly changed so that information concerning the 3D space below the water surface is obtained. The obtained information is subjected to ray tracing processing for 3D displaying of an image on a 2D screen. This arrangement enables quicker detection of fish schools.

Granted: 2004-10-19
Abstract: A computer control program directs a method whereby a computer reads a data entry record group from a data stream, wherein the data entry record group comprises one or more data entry records containing a key field containing an item. A key number representing the total number of key fields in the data entry record group is tallied, and a marker that allows for locating, and determining the size of, the data entry record group within the stream of data is recorded. The computer converts each item of the data entry record group to fixed length coded equivalence called an item indicator, and converts the item indicators to a fixed length coded equivalence called a signature. The computer creates a partial index record for each signature, and updates a combination cross-reference file and a raw data index, thereby classifying the data to allow for subsequent searching by persistent fast search methods.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a polymer optical waveguide and a method of fabricating the same. The polymer optical waveguide comprises a core formed of polymer containing fluoride (F) of a 12-37 wt.% o n the basis of total weight of the polymer, and having repeating units with at least two -C(=O)-N-C(=O) functional groups or at lea st four -N-C(=O)- functional groups; and a cladding in contact with the core and formed of polymer having a refractive index lower than the polymer for forming the core. If a core layer is etched according to the ICP etching method, the etch rate becomes at least three times faster than that of the conventional RIE etching method. Also, etching characteristics including uniformity of an etched plan e and vertical profile are improved, thereby reducing damage to an optical waveguide. Thus, the light scattering loss of the optical waveguide can be minimized. Also, the method for fabricating of a polymer optical waveguide according to the present invention is useful for mass production of polymer optical waveguides.
