Abstract: Stabilizer compositions useful for protecting clear polyvinyl chloride and other clear halogen-containing polymer compositions used in the manufacture of exterior weatherable products against discoloration and degradation caused by exposure to ultraviolet light and weathering in addition to heat comprising a latent mercaptan which degrades during processing of the composition at an elevated temperature to liberate a free mercaptan, in combination with a synergistic amount of a free phenyl salicylate compound. The latent mercaptan may be the sole heat stabilizer additive in the stabilizer composition, but the free mercaptan released during processing may also synergize the activity of organic-based or metal-based heat stabilizers such as metal salts and organometallic stabilizers such as organotin carboxylates and organotin mercaptides in the polymer composition. Clear polyvinyl chloride and other clear halogen-containing polymer compositions containing these compounds are also provided which exhibit improved ultraviolet light stability and weatherability without detracting from their thermal performance.

Abstract: A non-contact inspection system has one or more pairs of non-contact sensors, pointing at the braking surfaces and a non-contact sensor pointing at the outer diameter of a disc. The non-contact sensors can be inductive sensors, capacitive probes and/or laser sensors. A controller is connected to each sensor for signal processing and measurement output. The system measures various features and characteristics, such as braking surface thickness variation, lateral run-out, flatness, parallelism and diameters. Measurements are made while the disc rotates at a specified speed or while the disc is stationary. The pairs of non-contact sensors continuously measure the distance from the sensor or calibrated surface to the pointed surface. Thereby the run-out and thickness variations can be calculated from the measurements at different radii. By combining the measurements on the same braking surface, the flatness and parallelism are calculated. The other two sensors continuously measure the distance from the sensor or the calibrated surface to the pointed surface. A diameter can be calculated knowing the center of the disc. The lateral run-out, thickness variation, flatness and parallelism can be measured on each brake disc within the turning center for final inspection and/or statistical process control. The diameter measurement and its run-out can be fed back to the turning center to monitor and compensate tool wear.

Abstract: The present invention provides a wave generating apparatus for generating waves in for example beds, chairs and the like. In one aspect the device includes a motor driven crankshaft to which are attached several longitudinal beams. The beams mounted on the crankshafts are offset with respect to each other in such a way as to produce a phase shift between the beams. Each beam is provided with several links pivotally attached at one end to each beam and the links are spaced apart along each beam by a distance equal to the desired wavelength of the wave being produced. The other ends of each link is attached to a flexible membrane which forms a support surface of the bed or chair. The links from the different beams are interleaved at equal phase intervals so as to produce a travelling wave in the flexible membrane so that a complete wave passes during each full rotation of the crankshaft assembly. In another embodiment the motor is replaced by a generator and the mechanical movement of the flexible membrane driven by a fluid for example is converted into other forms of mechanical or electrical power.

Abstract: Various systems and methods providing high speed decoding, enhanced power reduction and clock domain partitioning for a multi-pair gigabit Ethernet transceiver are disclosed. ISI compensation is partitioned into two stages: a first stage compensates ISI components induced by characteristics of a transmitter's partial response pulse shaping filter in a demodulator, a second stage compensates ISI components induced by characteristics of a multi-pair transmission channel in a Viterbi decoder. High speed decoding is accomplished by reducing the DFE depth by providing an input signal from a multiple decision feedback equalizer to the Viterbi based on a tail value and a subset of coefficient values received from a unit depth decision-feedback equalizer. Power reduction is accomplished by adaptively truncating active taps in the NEXT, FEXT and echo cancellation filters, or by disabling decoder circuitry portions, as channel response characteristics allow. A receive clock signal is generated such that it is synchronous in frequency with analog sampling clock signals and has a particular phase offset with respect to one of the sampling clock signals. This phase offset is adjusted such that system performance degradation due to coupling of switching noise from the digital sections to the analog sections is substantially minimized.
