Patent EP-1279846-A3 (EP)
Inventor: BABIN BRIAN GEORGE
IPC: G01D11/24
Filed: 2002-07-25
Abstract: The invention concerns a self-lubricating bearing and, more particularly a self-lubricating
bearing which includes a race (15) and a bearing element (24) forming two mating bearing
surfaces. For applications in which the bearing may be subjected to environmental conditions
that could result in corrosion, one bearing surface may be formed from a corrosion resistant
metal, such as stainless steal, while the mating bearing surface is homogeneously formed with
the bearing element (24) from a composite material which includes Teflon. By homogeneously
forming the bearing element (24) from a composite material including Teflon, wear of the
bearing element will not affect the lubrication quality of the bearing.

Abstract: A wireless LAN base station scans frequency channels available
for use in a wireless LAN, detects a beacon signal of a near-by
wireless LAN base station, and thereby the number of the near-by
base stations in the wireless LAN is notified. The notified number of
the near-by base stations is recorded in a network table. A wireless
LAN base station which should determine a radio channel next is
determined, based on the recorded number of the near-by base
stations, using a wireless LAN base station having the smallest number of
near-by base stations as the starting point of radio channel
determining process, after the wireless LAN base station at the starting
point determines a radio channel. By repeatedly carrying out the
above-described operation, the radio channels of the whole wireless
LAN are automatically determined.

Abstract: A multi-functional apparatus and method for drilling fluid and cementing
operations to set casing in a wellbore for use on either top drive or rotary type rigs.
The apparatus and method includes a fill-up and circulating tool, a cementing head
assembly, and a wiper plug assembly. The fill-up and circulating tool comprises a
mandrel with a packer cup fixedly attached to a sliding sleeve disposed about the
outside diameter of the mandrel. The cementing head and wiper plug assemblies are
useable on any fill-up and circulating tool capable of being inserted into a casing. To
fill the casing, the assembly is lowered from the rig such that a portion of the fill-up tool
is inserted into the casing, the pumps are then actuated to flow fluid into the casing. To
circulate fluid, the tool is lower further such that the packer cup sealingly engages the
inside diameter of the casing to allow fluid to flow through the casing, into the wellbore,
and back to the fluid pumps. To cement the casing, the cement pump and hose
assembly is connected to the cementing head to allow cement to be pumped through
the fill-up and circulating tool and into the casing string. A cement plug assembly
comprising a plurality of wiper plugs is connected to the outlet of the fill-up and
circulating tool. The wiper plugs are then released at a predetermined time during the
cementing process to provide a positive seal at the bottom of the casing string.

Abstract: In a computer network, a representative computer
(11) requests performing a power-down process to the
other computers (21, 31, 41) and notifies the other
computers of a next power-up date and time whenever a
power-down date and time arrives. Each computer has a
power supply control device (12, 22, 32, 42) which
stores the power-up date and time. Each time a power-up
date and time comes, the representative computer
(11) is powered up and activated by its own power
supply control device (12) and normally instructs each
power supply control device (22, 32, 42) of the other
computers. However, if the representative computer
(11) cannot be activated for any reason, each power
supply control device (22, 32, 42) powers up its own
computer at the stored power-up date and time.

Abstract: An industrial lift truck (10) has a boom (20) that is raised and lowered by a first hydraulic
actuator (56) and a load carrier (24) that is pivoted with respect to the boom (20) by a second hydraulic
actuator (76). In the event that the supply of hydraulic fluid for powering the actuators fails,
the boom (20) may be lowered by gravity by draining fluid from the first hydraulic actuator (56).
To prevent a load from sliding off the load carrier (24) as the boom (20) descends, the load carrier (24)
is pivoted to maintain a substantially constant angular relationship to the ground. This
is accomplished by selectively conveying fluid drained under pressure from the first
hydraulic actuator (56) into the second hydraulic actuator (76). Changes in the position of the
boom (20) are sensed and, in response, the flow of fluid into the second hydraulic actuator (76)
is controlled to produce corresponding changes in the load carrier (24) position.

Abstract: When a request for processing is made after at least profile data which serves as input and profile attribute to be output have been specified, the case database, which stores case data in which a relation taking place between a plurality of piece of profile data is represented as a set of profile data, is retrieved in the case retrieval step for cases similar to profile data given as input. Next, in the dynamic learning step, significance of each of the attribute values for the attribute specified as output is calculated such that high significance is given to the attribute value which is characteristic of the set of case data retrieved in the case retrieval step. Further, in the recommended data determination step, the score of each piece of profile data in the profile database is calculated based on the significance, as calculated in the dynamic learning step, of each of the attribute values for the attribute specified as output, and profile data with high scores is recommended.

Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft einen Freigabemechanismus zur Freigabe des federvorgespannten Schaltzuges für getriggerte Bedienelemente von Fahrrad Gangschaltungen. Der formschlüssig wirkende Auslösemechanismus umfaßt eine Seilspule, die drehfest mit einer Zahnscheibe verbunden ist. Die Zahnscheibe ist mit Fang- und Haltezähnen ausgestattet und wird beim Freigabevorgang wechselweise von einem mit zwei starren Klinken bestückten Schiebeteil gehalten und somit in der aktuellen Gangstellung fixiert. 
     Beim Auslösevorgang wird das mit zwei starren Klinken versehene Schiebeteil von einem Betätigungselement aus der Halteposition in eine Fangposition verschoben. Die Zahnscheibe und damit auch die Seilspule wird vom vorgespannten Seilzug soweit gedreht, bis eine der beiden starren Klinken am Schiebeteil an einem Fangzahn der Zahnscheibe anliegt und diese arretiert. Wird nun das Betätigungselement freigegeben, so begibt sich das federvorgespannte Schiebeteil wieder in die Halteposition und die Arretierung durch die Klinke am Fangzahn wird aufgehoben. Die Zahnscheibe dreht sich nun solange weiter, bis die andere Klinke des Schiebeteils am entsprechenden Haltezahn der Zahnscheibe anliegt und den Freigabevorgang beendet. Mit einer entsprechend ausgebildeten Kontur einer Langlochführung wird die zur Freigabe erforderliche Betätigungskraft auf einen gewünschten Wert erhöht. 
     Der Vorteil dieser Freigabevorrichtung liegt in der sicheren, formschlüssigen Haltefunktion und in der einfachen und kompakten Ausführung des Schiebeteils und der Zahnscheibe. Der Auslösevorgang läuft dabei in stets kontrollierten Schaltetappen und mit hoher Präzision ab.
