Abstract: A negative pressure wound therapy apparatus that can include a wound dressing, a fluid collection device, a vacuum pump comprising a pump motor, and tubing can be powered by auxiliary power sources such as high efficiency batteries, photovoltaic panels or cells, fuel cells, combustion generators, human powered generators, or other mechanical, electrical, or chemical power sources such as hand operated dynamos or wound springs, or any combination of the foregoing. Additionally, the apparatus can include a high efficiency pressure controller for controlling the output of the vacuum pump. In some embodiments, the pressure controller can control the pump without using a processor, and can have other features such as an intermittent delay function and an anti-stall mechanism to reduce the energy consumption of the apparatus.

Title: Apparatus and methods to reduce castouts in a multi-level cache hierarchy
Inventor: SPEIER THOMAS PHILIP
IPC: G06F12/08
Filed: 2008-01-30
Granted: 2013-07-30
Abstract: Techniques and methods are used to reduce allocations to a higher level cache of cache lines displaced from a lower level cache. When it is determined that displaced lines have already been allocated in a higher level, the allocations of the displaced cache lines are prevented in the next level cache, thus, reducing castouts. To such ends, a line is selected to be displaced in a lower level cache. Information associated with the selected line is identified which indicates that the selected line is present in a higher level cache. An allocation of the selected line in the higher level cache is prevented based on the identified information. Preventing an allocation of the selected line saves power that would be associated with the allocation.

Inventor: TAYLOR GEOFFREY L
IPC: A47C31/12
Filed: 2009-03-13
Granted: 2016-01-05
Abstract: An adaptive cushion method and apparatus (20) for minimizing forces on body parts of a person on a chair or bed includes an overlay cushion (21) having a plurality of individual air bladder cells (22), each having thereon a novel stretchable piezoresistive force sensor(33), and an electro-pneumatic control system (20A) for inflating and deflating individual cells to pres-sures measured by a transducer (44). Force concentrations sensed by the force sensors are minimized using a novel algorithm by varying the inflation pressure in a first cell while measuring the sum of the forces exerted on all cells, repressurizing the first cell to that pressure for which a minimum total force was obtained, repeating the cyclical variation in pressure and re-inflation to a minimum force-obtaining pressure for each of the remaining cells, and repeating the sequence for all cells until the force varia-tions are minimized below a predetermined threshold value.

Abstract: The invention relates to a feed device (200) for a high-pressure roller press (100) for the high-pressure communinution of materi-al to be ground (104), said feed device feeding the material to be ground (104) in a controlled manner into the roller nip (103) between two rollers (101, 102) of the high-pressure roller press (100). According to the inven-tion, the feed device (200) has at least two rotary valves (230, 231), the position of which is variable independently of each other. In a refinement of the invention, the feed device (200) also has a shaft (202) which is va-riable in height above the roller nip (103). By means of the rotary valves (230, 231) which are variable independently of each other and by means of the height-variable shaft (202), the feeding behaviour of the feed device (200) can be varied during the starting of the high-pressure roller press (100) and during the operation of the high-pressure roller press (100) in order thereby to prevent the high-pressure roller press (100) from vibra-ting and to ensure optimum operation of the high-pressure roller press (100).

IPC: E21B43/27

Abstract: The invention describes a method for treating near-wellbore zones involving the steps of injecting a magnesium metal with a catalyst into the desired area of the formation to be treated. Subsequently, combustive-oxidizing solution (COS) is injected into the zone of the formation to be treated. The COS initially reacts with the magnesium, which in turn initiates a vigorous oxidation reaction of the COS. The reaction gases and heat produced by the COS oxidation reaction are harnessed to enhance the productivity of the well by creating fractures in the treatment zone and by melting of paraffin and resin deposits in the treatment zone. As a final step, acid is injected into the formation to react with the formation thereby further enhancing the porosity of the fractures. In one embodiment, the COS uses ammonium nitrate as the oxidizer, and in another, urea or ethylene glycol may be added as a reaction fuel.

Abstract: An infrared emitter (34) at least partially defines an interior space that at least partially contains convective prod-ucts of combustion. A burner (32) provides a mixture of combustible gas and primary air to the combustion, while secondary air is also provided to the combustion. A first side of the infrared emitter is in opposing face-to- face relation with the interior space so that the first side of the infrared emitter is exposed to, and heated by, the convective products of combustion. As a result, a second side of the infrared emitter emits infrared radiation. Static gauge pressure, measured at a location that is within the interior space and adjacent to the first side of the infrared emitter, may not exceed about 0.009 inches water column while the burner is operat-ing. Excess air present in gasses exhausted from the interior space may be less than 300% while the burner is operating.
