Abstract: Methods and systems for cable inspection operate by generating a relative motion between an electrical cable including multiple wires and a magnetic field. The generating a relative motion comprises operating a magnetic field generator comprising a torus that defines a gap in which the magnetic field is concentrated, and wherein generating the relative motion further comprises moving at least one of the magnetic field generator and the electrical cable such that the electrical cable is translated longitudinally through the gap. An electrical signal induced in the wires is measured responsively to the magnetic field. A variation in the electrical signal is sensed due to the relative motion. In response to the variation, a defect is detected in the electrical cable.

Abstract: The present invention provides a wind turbine generator and a blade pitch angle control method thereof in which an aerodynamic imbalance of a wind turbine rotor at the time of shutdown is further reduced, the maximum load of a wind turbine is further reduced, and the wind turbine generator can be reduced in weight and cost. The wind turbine generator includes a collective pitch angle controller 11 that produces a collective pitch angle demand that is common to blade pitch angles of wind turbine blades, an individual pitch angle producing unit 13 that produces an individual pitch angle demand inherent in each wind turbine blade, multipliers 21 to 23 that multiply the individual pitch angle demand by the individual pitch angle gain, an individual pitch angle gain producing unit 14, and adder 24 to 26 that add collective pitch angle demands to the output of the multipliers 21 to 23 and supply the same to pitch actuators 31 to 33 inherent in the wind turbine blades. When shutdown is performed, the individual pitch angle gain is adjusted such that a individual pitch angle gain is reduced gradually and reaches to zero by the individual pitch angle gain producing unit 14 after first set time.

Title: Solar panel assembly
Inventor: RIZZO NATHAN
IPC: F16M11/00
Filed: 2010-05-13
Granted: 2018-02-27
Abstract: The present invention is a ballasted solar panel mounting system primarily for mounting solar panels to a roof. The mounting system reduces waste space by positioning the first and/or the last row of bases beneath the panel. This potentially provides room for an additional row of panels and generation of a greater amount of electricity per square foot of area. Additionally, the mounting system uses bases with upwardly extending posts that are integrally connected to the bases that support ballasts. Thus, all assemblies that require attaching one part of the system to another is done at an elevated level to reduce the amount of bending required by the installers. Moreover, the unique system for installing solar panels can be installed without a jig. In some instances, it can be installed with only a single reference line (e.g., chalk line). Additionally, the bases are configured to be stackable for inexpensive storage and distribution.

Abstract: A safety system (16) for a truck loading dock (14) with an elevated platform (18) provides an alarm (26,28) that warns of a hazard at the loading dock such as a forklift operating inside the truck (24) or a falling hazard that may exist due to the dock door (20) being open while a truck is not present at the dock. In cases where a dock's open doorway (12) is protected by a barrier (22) that can be opened or closed, the alarm (26) can be de-activated by closing the barrier. In some embodiments, the safety system includes a remote body sensor (70) that detects when someone (32) or something is near the doorway. In response to the body sensor, a second, more pronounced alarm can warn of more imminent danger where someone on the platform may be too close to an open doorway when a truck is not present.

Abstract: A cyclonic debris evacuation apparatus and method for removing debris in a pumping system. The apparatus includes a valve rod, a cyclone component, cup component, ring component, and ring coupler component. The cup component is composed of a high density poly-fiber material that helps in creating a positive seal between the cup component and barrel interior during pumping operations, helping to direct solids into the cup component and thereby preventing them from travelling southward in the direction of the barrel and causing damage. The cup component can include a specialized leading edge adapted to direct solids into the cup component. The apparatus can include a carbide ring that prevents solids from traveling further down onto the pump plunger section. The carbide ring can incorporate ports that feed into a main channel flow.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un clou à tête entièrement ronde, ayant une tête décalée qui est configurée avec un gousset formé d'un seul tenant entre une surface inférieure de la tête décalée et une partie supérieure d'une tige. La tête du clou est relativement mince, et la tige est positionnée radialement hors du centre de la tête ronde de telle sorte qu'aucun talon n'est formé à un point tangentiel à la fois à la tête et à la tige. Le gousset a une surface bombée s'effilant radialement d'un arrondi au niveau du talon zéro jusqu'à une conicité au niveau de l'orteil. Le gousset renforce la jonction de la tige avec la tête, supporte l'orteil de la tête et distribue la force d'une charge sur la tête à travers un axe longitudinal de la tige, empêchant l'orteil de se courber ou de faire ressort et empêchant la tige de faire ressort vers les contraintes de la charge appliquée.

Abstract: An obstacle to achievement of a rotary internal combustion engine is, since a cylinder has a well hole structure, a difficulty in constructing a starting point for a physical action that enables combustion pressure of fuel to be transferred to a blade of a rotor. According to the rotary internal combustion engine of the present invention, in the cylinder, being timed to rotation of the rotor blade, the shutoff valve is inserted into the cylinder to stop up the cylinder space in a radial direction and then fuel and air are injected for combustion into the sealed layer formed between the shutoff valve and rotor blade and combustion pressure generated therein directly provides rotation to the rotor and working shaft, with the shutoff valve as a starting point for a mechanical action.
