Title: Inter-class schedulers utilizing priority guaranteed queuing
Inventor: ST-DENIS BERNARD
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1999-12-16
Granted: 2004-03-16
Abstract: Inter-class schedulers for digital link systems provide high efficiency utilization of limited bandwidth by employing queuing techniques refereed to as Statistical Priority Guarantee Queuing (SPGQ) and Generic Cell-Rate Algorithm Priority Guarantee Queuing (GCRA-PGQ). SPGQ "elevates" the priority of otherwise low-priority classes under prescribed circumstances in accordance with a statistical process. The SPGQ scheduler determines whether a number within a range produced by a uniform random number generator lies within a sub-range proportional to the programmed statistical guarantee for a given class. If the number lies within the sub-range associated with a given class, then the priority of that class is elevated to a higher priority when both are eligible to transmit. The GCRA-PGQ scheduler operates as a strict priority mechanism until a class requires bandwidth in excess of a GCRA "window" or threshold for that class. When that occurs, the service priority of that class is temporarily lowered.

Abstract: Electrical connectors 40, 104 including contact terminals that can be unmated without previously disconnecting power include main contacts 12, 112 and auxiliary contacts 16, 130 that are shunted by a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) resistor 6, 140 located between the main and auxiliary contact. The main contact 12, 112 will be disconnected first and the auxiliary contact 16, 130 can be longer than the main contact 12, 112. Arcing will not occur at the mating end of the main contact 12, 112, because the current will be shunted to the still connected longer auxiliary contact 16, 130. I2R heating will increase the resistance in the PTC resistor 6, 140, so when the auxiliary contact 16, 130 is disconnected, current will be below the arcing threshold. Multiple latches 54 A,B and 60 A, B or 180 and 196 permit only discontinuous mating of electrical connectors, so that the connectors can be disconnected without arcing for a range of currents.

Granted: 2010-01-26
Abstract: A lid lifting mechanism (24) for heavy vessel lids (14) provides for optimum mechanical advantage in counterbalancing the weight of the lid when pivoting the lid to an open position. The mechanism has a pivot arm (26) secured to the lid and a pivot mount (28) intermediate the length of the pivot arm where the pivot mount is secured to the vessel container (12). The pivot arm extends beyond the pivot mount (28) to provide a distal end (30). A pretensioned retracting device (32) is connected to the distal end by a connector (34) which can be selectively moved along the arm to increase or decrease the moment arm length. Such movement of the connector or the pretensioned device adjusts the extent of retracting device assist in pivoting the lid to a lid open position. This system provides for maximum mechanical advantage while adjusting for build up of material on the inside of the lid.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un pipeline asynchrone destiné à des applications à vitesse élevée et mettant en oeuvre des systèmes de verrouillage transparents simples dans son parcours de données et des petites unités de commande des systèmes de verrouillage destinées à chaque étage du pipeline. Les étages communiquent entre eux, au moyen de signaux de requête et de signaux d'accusé de réception. Chaque transition sur le signal de requête indique l'arrivée d'un nouvel élément de données distinct. Chaque étage comprend un système de verrouillage de données généralement activé, de manière à permettre à des données de passer à travers, ainsi qu'une unité de commande du système de verrouillage activant et désactivant le système de verrouillage des données. Le signal de requête et les données représentent des entrées pour le système de verrouillage des données. Une fois que l'étage a verrouillé les données, un signal réalisé est produit, lequel est envoyé à l'unité de commande du système de verrouillage, à l'étage précédent comme signal d'accusé de réception et à l'étage suivant comme signal de requête. L'unité de commande désactive le système de verrouillage au moment de la réception du signal réalisé et réactive le système de verrouillage des données au moment de la réception du signal d'accusé de réception provenant de l'étage suivant. Le signal de requête doit arriver à l'étage après la stabilisation des entrées des données, en vue d'obtenir un fonctionnement correct. Le pipeline asynchrone peut comprendre des éléments logiques, de manière à combiner des données, ainsi que des éléments de retard appariés destinés aux signaux de requête, d'accusé de réception et réalisés. Le pipeline asynchrone peut également comprendre des grilles logiques CMOS synchronisées. La conception du pipeline asynchrone met également en place des structures à fourchette et à connexion.

Title: A wall structure for use in a furnace or the similar and a method for its construction
Inventor: RUUD ANDERS
IPC: F27D3/04
Filed: 2002-04-24
Granted: 2011-07-05
Abstract: The present invention concerns a wall structure and a method for constructing such an anchored wall structure. The wall structure is designed for use in a furnace or the similar, where the structure is exposed to cyclical thermal load. The structure consists of a row of individual elements which are placed in the longitudinal direction of the structure and are arranged in one or more courses, one resting on the other. The individual elements may consist of bricks of refractory material and the wall structure may also be provided with internal flue gas ducts. The wall structure is also designed to be able to compensate for longitudinal changes and any vertical changes as a consequence of cyclical thermal load. The wall structure's longitudinal changes are compensated for in a connection (2) arranged at least one end of the wall structure. The structure's individual elements are fixed to each other in the horizontal direction by means of mutually interacting contact elements. This produces a structure which remains stable after repeated thermal cycles, and costs related to restoration and stoppages can be reduced.

Title: Explosively actuated tools
Inventor: ARNOLD AARON ANTHONY
IPC: B25C1/10
Filed: 2004-06-02
Granted: 2010-09-14
Abstract: An explosively actuated tool for driving a fastener into a substrate is of the type in which the tool is mounted to the end of a pole-like handle to permit manipulation and actuation of the tool from a remote position wherein actuation of the tool occurs by pushing the forward end of a barrel of the tool against the substrate using the handle and then pushing on the handle which loads and then releases the firing mechanism of the tool. A lock device is incorporated to prevent "air firing" of the tool by pushing the handle without the forward end of the barrel being pressed against the substrate. The lock device has a lock member which cooperates with the firing pin or firing pin spring support of the firing mechanism to lock one or other of those components unless the lock member is released by a prior displacement caused by retraction of the barrel when its forward end is pressed against the substrate.
