Abstract: A clip-on glasses assembly for mounting on primary glasses, comprising a pair of lens members, at least one grapple on each of the pair of lens members for engaging the outer edges of the primary glasses, and a bridge between the lens members configured to slidably receive the lens members to allow movement of the lens members between an open position and a closed position. An actuator bar having two ends, each end coupled to one of the lens members, allows a user to easily mount and remove the glasses assembly using only one hand. Moving the actuator bar toward the bridge forces the ends of the actuator bar apart and moves the lens members into the open position. The actuator bar is generally U-shaped and constructed from a resilient material. The actuator bar and/or separate springs bias the lens member toward the closed position. The bridge may further comprise a locking mechanism to maintain the lens members in the open position. An actuating mechanism comprising just the actuator bar can be affixed to other glasses assemblies to make those assemblies operable using only one hand.

Filed: 2002-08-06
Granted: 2011-10-25
Abstract: A process whereby a high viscosity hydrocarbonaceous material is fed to a gasifier for conversion to synthesis gas. The feedstock, steam oxygen, and recycled gasification system water are all fed into the gasifier through a four stream feed injector (2), which includes a central cylindrical conduct (4) and second (60, third (8) and outer (10) cylindrical conducts radically spaced from each other. This setup provides a center passage (12), and a first (14), a second (16), and an outer (18) annular coaxial concentric annular passage. The upstream ends of each conduit ave a flanged inlet nozzle (20) for the introduction of material. The feedstock in this design is sandwiched between two oxygen streams so as to provide better conversion for the exceptionally heavy feed. The further stream down the central layout (12) of the feed injector (2) provides the fllow path for the recycled water.

Abstract: A sediment removal system and method provides a versatile and controllable device for removing sediment from water in a focused manner that avoids generating unwanted turbidity. A suction pump draws water and sediment through a suction conduit and the injection of air into the suction conduit by air nozzles enables sediment to be removed from greater depths. The inclusion of water nozzles on an inlet opening enables hardened sediment to be dislodged such that it may be drawn into the suction conduit. A GPS receiver mounted to the suction conduit enables the location of the removal process to be tracked and a knife valve prevents backflow out of the suction conduit. The capturing of solid sediment by retention containers and the capturing of water containing suspended sediment by a tank enables the sediment and water to be transported to an appropriate location for treatment or disposal.

Abstract: Frequency-independent eigensteering in MISO and MIMO systems are described.  For principal mode and multi-mode eigensteering, a correlation matrix is computed for a MIMO channel based on channel response matrices and decomposed to obtain NS frequency-independent steering vectors for NS spatial channels of the MIMO channel. ND data symbol streams are transmitted on ND best spatial channels using ND steering vectors, where for ND=1 for principal mode eigensteering and ND>1 for multi-mode eigensteering. For main path eigensteering, a data symbol stream is transmitted on the best spatial channel for the main propagation path (e.g., with the highest energy) of the MIMO  channel. For receiver eigensteering, a data symbol stream is steered toward a receive antenna based on a steering vector obtained for that receive antenna.  For all eigensteering schemes, a matched filter is derived for each receive antenna based on the steering vector(s) and channel response vectors for the receive antenna.
