Title: Movable barrier operator operating parameter transfer method and apparatus
Inventor: GREGORI ERIC
IPC: E05F15/14
Filed: 2005-05-31
Granted: 2012-12-04
Abstract: Operating parameters as were previously learned by a first movable barrier operator (18) are transferred to a second movable barrier operator (10) such as, for example, to a replacement movable barrier operator. Pursuant to a preferred approach, such information transfer occurs via a receiver interface (13) that ordinarily serves to couple the movable barrier operator (10) to one or more remote user interfaces (11). Pursuant to one approach this transfer occurs during a learning mode of operation.

Abstract: In an earth drilling rig in which an air compressor and one or more hydraulic pumps are driven by the same engine, the intake throttle of the compressor is controlled by an electronic controller having a proportional integral derivative control. The controller minimizes unloading of the compressor, allowing the engine to operate more efficiently, the hydraulic system to provide more consistent power to drilling functions and the volume and pressure of compressed air to be optimized for the drilling conditions encountered. The electronic controller also operates a blowdown valve at the discharge side of an air receiver, and effects various overrides of the control system, for example when air discharge temperature approaches a critical level, or when an overpressure condition is detected.

Abstract: Improved processes have been developed for atom (or group) transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). In one improvement, the ATRP process involves polymerizing in the presence of a (partially) free radical-deactivating amount of the corresponding reduced or oxidized transition metal compound. In a further improvement, the ATRP process involves polymerizing in a homogeneous system or in the presence of a solubilized initiating/catalytic system. The present invention also concerns end-functional, site--specific functional and telechelic homopolymers and copolymers; block, random, graft, alternating and tapered (or "gradient") copolymers which may have certain properties or a certain novel structure; star, comb and "hyperbranched" polymers and copolymers; multi-functional hyperbranched, end-functional polymers; cross-linked polymers and gels; water-soluble polymers and hydrogels (e.g., a copolymer prepared by radical copolymerization of a water-soluble monomer and a divinyl monomer); and an ATRP process using water as a medium.

Granted: 2013-08-13
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a complementary regenerative torque system for a vehicle including an engine with an accelerator pedal position sensor.  The regenerative torque system selectively stores and supplies energy to the drive train of the vehicle to provide on demand complementary torque. The regenerative torque system may be hydraulic or electric in nature and may be disposed upstream or downstream of the transmission relative to the engine. A  regenerative torque control module is disposed between the accelerator pedal position sensor and the engine control module and intercepts the accelerator pedal position signal and modifies it in response to the mode of operation of the regenerative torque system and forwards the modified throttle signal to the engine control module. Likewise, the regenerative torque control module intercepts and modifies signals from the engine control module prior to broadcasting them to the rest of the vehicle's control modules.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring the use of consumable materials in packaging machines is provided. The system generally includes a plurality of packaging machines that are configured to selectively operate in first and second modes to perform different packaging operations, e.g., by using consumable materials at different consumable usage rates to form different packaging devices.  A controller in each machine controls the operation of the machine in the different modes and is configured to communicate the consumable usage data via a port. A    portable module can be electronically connected to each machine during a connection session to communicate with the controller and receive the consumable usage data. The data from the module is then received by a user interface that provides an indication to a user of the usage of the machines in the first and second modes, e.g., to indicate to the user which machines are being used to form which packaging devices and/or how much of the operation of the machines is being used to form each of the packaging devices.

Granted: 2014-02-11
Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel integrated PCR-free signal amplification polynucleotide detection system which combines a specific receptor, an optical transducer, and an amplification mechanism. This novel detection system is based on different electrostatic interactions and conformations between a cationic polythiophene (i.e. polymer 1) and single-stranded or double-stranded polynucleotides (such as ss-DNA or ds-DNA), and the efficient energy transfer between the triplex (complexation between the cationic polythiophene and ds-DNA) and neighboring fluorophores attached to ss-DNA or ds-DNA probes. It is to be understood that in the case of ss-DNA, triplex formation occurs via the hybridization of complementary ss-DNA strands, combined with complexation with the cationic polythiophene. The present detection system allows for the detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from samples in only a few minutes, without the need for nucleic acid amplification.

Abstract: A joining assembly includes a plastic support member having a receiving bore and a plastic threaded element having a central axis.
