Title: Air intake flow device for internal combustion engine
Inventor: ROBLEY SPENCER H JR
IPC: F15D1/02
Filed: 2003-09-16
Granted: 2005-05-17
Abstract: An air intake flow device to manipulate the airflow in an air entry chamber of a positive displacement internal combustion engine. The air intake flow device is comprised of a skirt defining an air flow passageway, multiple vanes extending into the airflow passageway from a first leading edge at the surface of the skirt. The configuration of the vanes direct the airflow into a vortex like configuration which is understood to improve air intake across the intake valve into the combustion chamber and thereby improve oxidation of the fuel. The airflow device is preferably constructed in a fashion so that the installer of the device can readily adapt its configuration by applying hand pressure from a first manufactured configuration to second installation configuration. Thus, the device is suitable for adaptation to various air entry chamber shapes.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for assembling a fluid conduit assembly and testing the fluid conduit for leaks. Clipping devices support fasteners at a position remote from the conduit. According to the invention the fasteners can be loaded into clip nests provided by the clipping devices while leak testing of the conduit is performed. The performance of these steps simultaneously effectively eliminates the conventional requirement of pre-loading installation fasteners into the leak testing apparatus, and thus reduces the overall time required for the testing and assembly of fluid conduits by approximately one third. If the leak test is successful, all of the fasteners are then moved to the conduits and closed to integrate the conduit assembly.

Title: System and method that facilitates customizing media
Inventor: SATER NEIL D
IPC: G10L13/02
Filed: 2003-02-26
Granted: 2012-11-20
Abstract: The present invention relates to a system (100) and method for customizing media (e.g., songs, text, books, stories, video, audio...) via a computer network, such as the Internet. A system (100) in accordance with the invention includes a component (110) that provides for a user to search for and select media (132) to be customized. A customization component receives data relating to modifying the selected media and generates a customized version of the media incorporating the received modification data. A distribution component delivers the customized media to the user. The present invention solves a unique problem in the current art by enabling a user to alter media (132) in order to customize the media (132) for a particular subject or recipient. This is advantageous in that the user need not have any singing ability for example and is not required to purchase any additional peripheral computer accessories to utilize the present invention. Thus, customization of media (132) can occur for example via recording an audio track of customized lyrics or by textually manipulation of the lyrics and/or graphics. In achieving this goal, the present invention utilizes client/server architecture such as is commonly used for transmitting information over a computer network such as the Internet.

Abstract: A self-propelled swabbing device and method for use in removing liquid to surface from within an installed wellbore casing. The device includes a longitudinally extending plunger sized to fit within the wellbore casing, and includes an internal surface defining an internal flow passage extending longitudinally therethrough. The device further includes a seal between the plunger and the casing and a valve stem having a valve operative to be shuttled between an opened position and a closed position to seal the internal flow passage. The stem extends longitudinally through the plunger to form a piston and sealed chamber maintained at a pressure below that desired for closing the valve. A biaser is further provided for biasing the valve in the opened position until a set pressure is reached, at which point the valve is shuttled to the closed position and flow through the internal flow passage is stopped. The device may include snap-closed and snap-open magnetic devices for ensuring that the valve remains either fully closed or fully open.
