Abstract: A method of collecting market research information is disclosed. A geographic database contains data entities that represent geographic features, such as roads, located in a geographic region. Advertising zones are defined within the geographic region. Users of mobile computing platforms are provided with geographically-related services that use the geographic database. As users of the mobile computing platforms travel in the geographic region, the locations of the mobile computing platforms are determined. Demographic information of the mobile computing platform is associated with the position of the mobile computing platform. A market research record identifies which of the mobile computing platforms are located within or passing through one of the advertising zones. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An inter-axle differential assembly 10 having a lubrication pump 50 is provided. The pump 50 is disposed between the input and output shafts 14, 30 of the differential within a bore defined by a side gear 20, 44 coupled to or integral with the output shaft 30. The pump 50 includes a housing 56 that defines first and second ports 60, 62 and includes an arcuate groove 165 in a radially outer surface. A pin 164 extends radially inwardly from the side gear 20, 44 and is received within the groove 165. The groove 165 and pin 164 cooperate to enable rotation of the entire pump 50 relative to the side gear 20, 44 and to thereby exchange the positions of the two ports 60, 62. In this manner, the assembly provides a reversible pump that provides lubricant only during relative rotation between the input and output shafts 14, 30 of the differential 10. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In packaging 10 comprising three layers of material 14, 16, 18 adhered together, the middle layer 16 has at east one portion 20 removed, defining a void inside the packaging. The three layers are the same size and shape. Partial cut-lines 22 extend width layers through all layers, at the edge of the packaging, to aid opening. A further perforation 32 may be applied to the two outer layers, substantially bridging the gap between the outer cuts. The first layer of the packaging is initially not completely joined to the middle layer, and can be folded back about a fold line 44 , to allow insertion of an object before closing. A tapered gap 56 maybe provided in the edge of the middle layer, connecting to the removed portion. One of the outer layers 14, 18 may be provided with a printed, perforated portion, overlying the void space in the middle layer. A method of producing said packaging comprises removing at least a portion from one of three layers, and laminating or bonding the layers together with said altered layer in the middle. The three layers may be provided as a single blank, and folded to position them on top of one another, the blank being pre-cut with the removed portion of the middle layer.

Abstract: A metal mold is disposed adjacent to the outer circumference of a base ring, and has a molding face in the inner circumference and a plurality of grooves for forming beads on the molding face along the circumferential direction. A coil for electromagnetic forming is disposed adjacent to the inner circumference of the base ring. When a momentary large current is applied to the coil in this arrangement, the diameter of the base ring is expanded by pressing the base ring toward the molding face of the metal mold such that the base ring is molded into a shape corresponding to the molding face by electromagnetic forming. Improvements such as a metal mold capable of degassing, a separable metal mold, roll-correcting after electromagnetic forming, application of momentary large current over several times, a metal mold with a cutting blade, use of a base ring with a large number of holes, and a metal mold with positioning means are then added. With these improvements, a highly accurate cylindrical ring with beads can be produced at low cost and with high productivity. <IMAGE>
