Title: Compression release retarder with valve motion modifier
Inventor: MEISTRICK ZDENEK SIDONIUS
IPC: F01L13/06
Filed: 1988-09-13
Abstract: A process and apparatus are provided to increase the retarding horsepower of a compression release engine retarder driven from the exhaust valve pushtube (122) or the fuel injector pushtube, the apparatus including a plenum (142) communicating with the exhaust valve slave piston (48) and the master piston (128) driven by a remote exhaust valve pushtube (122) or the fuel injector pushtube, a trigger check valve (154) located between the master piston (128) and exhaust valve slave piston (48) to deliver energy,resulting from the initial motion of the master piston (128) to the plenum (142). At a predetermined point in the travel of the master piston (128), the trigger check valve (154) is opened by the master piston (128) to permit the delivery of the energy stored in the plenum (142) to the slave piston (48), additional pumping capability being provided by a second master piston (138) while a control check valve (182), communicating with the second master piston (138) limits the intake of hydraulic fluid into the system, after working pressures have been attained, to that which may leak from the system. The process includes cyclically storing energy in the plenum (142), releasing the stored energy from the plenum (142) at a predetermined point in the travel of the master piston (128) driven by the exhaust or fuel injector pushtube and directing the stored energy to the slave piston (48) whereby the exhaust valve is opened rapidly at a predetermined time.

Title: Surgical prosthetic implant for vertebrae
Inventor: BRANTIGAN JOHN W
IPC: A61B19/00
Filed: 1992-09-04
Abstract: Surgical prosthetic modular implants used singularly or stacked together are provided to support and fuse together adjacent vertebrae or to totally or partially replace one or more vertebrae in a vertebral column. The implants are rigid annular plugs, dimensionally similar to normal vertebral bodies, have simplified oval or hemi-oval shapes with ridged faces to engage adjacent vertebral bodies to resist displacement and allow bone ingrowth and fusion and to interdigitate with the ridges of an adjacent plug for modular stacking to allow variability of ultimate implant height. The implants can be provided in sets of different thicknesses and are internally grooved to receive an upstanding connecting bar to bind together the individual stacked implants into a stable unit. The annular implants have ample spaces to allow ingrowth of blood capillaries and packing of bone graft and are preferably made of a radiolucent material, preferably biocompatible carbon fiber reinforced polymers or are alternately made of traditional orthopaedic implant materials such as nickel, chromium, cobalt, stainless steel or titanium.

Title: Quadrature mixer
Inventor: KASPERKOVITZ WOLFDIETRICH GEOR
IPC: H04B1/30

Abstract: Mixer arrangement (M) comprising first and second quadrature mixer stages (M, resp. M<sub>2</sub>) to which quadrature mixing signals are applied from an oscillator circuit (Fo), these two mixer stages (M, and M<sub>2</sub>) being coupled to a superposition circuit (So). To suppress interferences occurring in the output signal of the superposition circuit due to oscillator crosstalk or leakage and/or a d.c. offset of the mixer stages (M, and M<sub>2</sub>) which are supplied with mixing signals by the oscillator circuit Fa, the quadrature components of these interferences being in phase with the quadrature mixing signals are measured by means of first and second synchronous detectors (SD<sub>1</sub> resp. SD<sub>2</sub>) to which detection carriers are applied in an in-phase or an anti-phase relationship with respect to the quadrature mixing signals. After sign inversion these quadrature components are fed back to the inputs of the two mixer stages (M, and M<sub>2</sub>), resulting in an interference negative feedback.

Patent AU-3405393-A (AU)
Title: Non-pneumatic tire with ride-enhancing insert
Inventor: PAJTAS SCOTT ROBERT
IPC: B29C33/76
Filed: 1993-03-09
Abstract: The relatively harsh "ride" of a non-pneumatic tire ("NPT") is greatly improved by a ring of elastomeric material referred to as a "ride-enhancing insert" ("RI"). The RI is pre-positioned on the outer surface of a wheel rim on which the NPT is to be molded of elastomeric material, most preferably a polyurethane, which is peculiarly well-suited to survive normal use on various vehicles, particularly as a replacement for a conventional spare tire, or "minispare" in an automobile. The RI is surprisingly tolerant of stress and heat loads generated by operation of the NPT/RI. The RI has a large effect on the spring rate of the NPT when deflected over a cleat, and a reduction in spring rate when deflected over a smooth laminar surface. This is of particular importance since the deflection over a cleat is where the improvement in ride is most noticeable. The degree of ride-enhancement can be tailored by choosing the size and shape of the RI, along with the physical properties of the elastomer from which it is formed. <IMAGE>

IPC: F24F11/02
Filed: 1999-04-09
Abstract: An automatic control system for actuators and security devices in building automation. A wrist-held sensor and transmitter unit (11) transmits repeatedly, in the form of short telegrams, messages indicating the physiological condition of user to a receiver and control apparatus (12), which is placed in a monitored space either as a separate unit or a part of an appliance to be controlled. The receiver and control apparatus (12), or an information analyzer in data transfer communication therewith, uses the physiological condition of a user as a basis to conduct control selections and to control automatically the actuators and security devices in accordance with the physiological condition of a person who carries the transmitter unit (11). If necessary, the control selections can be influenced also by a piece of information indicating the location of a user. In addition to the automatic control of nearby equipment, the system is also applicable to monitoring the health of a user and to setting off alarms.

Title: Anti-theft brake or clutch pedal locking device
Inventor: VITO ROBERT A
IPC: B60T7/06
Filed: 2000-03-16
Abstract: A device to lock a brake or clutch pedal of a vehicle so as to deter theft of the vehicle includes a base for placement on the floor of the vehicle beneath the pedal of the vehicle being locked and beneath a pedal shaft supporting the pedal. The device includes a generally U-shaped housing with a second leg attached to the base, a first leg shorter than the second leg, and a cross member connecting the first and second legs to define an opening between the first leg and the base and a slot between the first and second legs to receive the pedal shaft and permit travel of the pedal shaft through the slot. A locking mechanism includes a locking pin and a lock. The locking pin is selectively movable on the U-shaped housing between a raised locked position sufficiently close to a lower side of the pedal shaft to prevent the pedal shaft from being operably depressed, i.e., depressed sufficiently to enable the vehicle to be started or clutch or brake to be used and a retracted position to permit travel of the pedal shaft through the slot and opening. The locking pin is on the end of a rod which extends through the second leg and a housing of the lock fixed to the U-shaped housing above the second leg. A handle at an opposing upper end of the rod is pitched and shaped to deflect blows. The lock has an upper face with a key opening. The upper face faces substantially oppositely away from the base at a transverse angle to the base and to a perpendicular angle to the base. A barrel type key lock cylinder is used. The lock housing has multiple, mostly non-rectangular lateral sides to discourage cutting. The housings around the rod are made from hardened metals. The shorter, first leg is welded on its three outer sides to the cross member and is generally U-shaped with a deflection in its own cross wall for greater strength.
