Title: Portable low profile drive-over truck dump conveyor system
Inventor: EVINK DAVID K
IPC: B65G69/30
Filed: 2006-01-12
Abstract: A portable truck dump comprises a conveyor system mounted on an elongate frame to transport material from a first end of the frame to a second, opposite end of the frame. A grate is positioned over the conveyor system and is supported by first and second sides of the frame. A ramp extends generally perpendicular to the frame on each side of the frame next to the grate to provide a drive-over access for a material transport vehicle to deposit its load over the grate and onto the conveyor system. A first end of each ramp immediately adjacent to the frame is pivotally connected to the frame to allow the frame to be articulated towards the grate.  A second end of each ramp spaced from the frame is supported above but in close proximity to the ground. A support frame is associated with each ramp to provide a barrier along the ground adjacent to and at a level of the second end of each ramp. The barrier supports an earthen ramp which enables the material transport vehicles to drive onto and over the ramp to deposit material over the grate. The support frame maintains the integrity of the earthen ramp when the ramps are articulated towards the grate. The support frame may also provide a support surface adjacent to the ground for supporting the second end of each ramp.

Title: Nuclear magnetic resonance measuring method for solid samples
Inventor: MIYAKE MASAHIRO
IPC: G01R33/64
Filed: 2005-07-27
Abstract: In a nuclear magnetic resonance measuring method for solid samples, there are provided the steps of exciting a nuclear spin of a solid sample placed in a static magnetic field by allowing exciting pulses to pass through a receiver coil. A FID signal (Free Induction Decay signal) is received from the excited nuclear spin by applying reading pulses after a lapse of time Ä after applying the exciting pulses is finished. An Inversion Recovery IR - Nuclear Magnetic Resonance NMR spectrum is obtained by subjecting the FID signal to a frequency conversion process. The estimation of a constituent ratio of constituent substances of the solid sample is achieved by acquiring a plurality of FID signals while changing the period of time Ä, by calculating IR-NMR spectra based on these FID signals, by obtaining a longitudinal relaxation curve by plotting spectrum strength with respect to time Ä in a specific frequency of the TR-NMR spectrum, and by making a regression analysis while regarding the longitudinal relaxation curve as a total sum of a plurality of longitudinal relaxation curves differing in longitudinal relaxation time.
