Abstract: Appareil et méthode pour compacter un échantillon de matériau (12) constitutif du sol ou du revêtement routier, comprenant un moule (11) pour recevoir l'échantillon de matériau (12), et un marteau de battage (20) monté pour se déplacer dans une première extrémité ouverte du moule (11) de façon à exercer une force de compression axiale.  L'appareil de compactage comprend également une base (13) pour soutenir une deuxième extrémité (15) du moule.  Pendant le fonctionnement, le moule effectue un mouvement giratoire simultanément avec l'application de la force de compression axiale par le marteau de battage.  Le mouvement giratoire se produit en inclinant le moule (11) d'une position neutre initiale, où l'axe longitudinal central (11a) du moule (11) est colinéaire avec l'axe de compression (20a), à une position inclinée, où l'axe longitudinal central du moule (11a) est en déport par rapport à l'axe de compression (20a).  La base tourne ainsi par rapport au moule de façon à faire tourner le centre de la deuxième extrémité du moule autour de l'axe de compression (20a), exerçant ainsi un mouvement giratoire sur l'échantillon de matériau (12) comprimé de manière axiale.  L'action simultanée du mouvement giratoire et de la compression axiale simule le roulement d'un pneumatique de véhicule ou autre dispositif de compactage sur une surface d'un matériau.

Granted: 2007-02-06
Abstract: A ceramic thermal barrier coating layer (28) for a superalloy article (20) is caused to adhere to the superalloy article (20) by applying platinum to the superalloy article (20) and heat treating at a temperature of 1100°C to 1200°C for one hour. This causes aluminium to diffuse from the superalloy article (20) into the platinum to form a platinum enriched outer layer (24) which generally comprises a platinum enriched gamma phase (36) and a platinum enriched gamma prime phase (38). An alumina layer (26) is formed between the platinum enriched outer layer (24) and a ceramic coating (28). The platinum enriched gamma phase (36) and the platinum enriched gamma prime phase (38) in the outer layer (24) reduces the migration of transition metal elements to the ceramic coating (28) to enable a very pure alumina layer (26) to be formed.

Title: Channel and data link automatic restoration
Inventor: THIELER STEPHEN M
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 1997-08-20
Granted: 2002-01-22
Abstract: A communication switching system having a plurality of switch nodes with each of the switch nodes responsive to a failure of a communication link within a group of communication links to switch active calls from channels of the failed communication link to idle channels of other communication links within the group of communication links. If no idle channels are available within the group of communication links when the communication link fails, a predefined time is waited for a channel to become idle or a new communication link to be added to the group of communication links before the active channels are abandoned. Advantageously,the switching of the active calls to idle channels occurs quickly so that only amomentary interruption of the calls occurs. The group of communication links mayadvantageously be a non-facility access service (NFAS) group having a combination of ISDN BRI and PRI communication links. The calls can be either voice, video, or data calls.

Title: A method and apparatus for delivering data from an information provider using the public switched network
Inventor: SMITH DAVID B
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 1997-10-06
Granted: 2001-04-10
Abstract: The customer performs a search or otherwise defines selected data maintained by the information provider. Once the selected data is identified, the information provider maintains the requested data, typically by maintaining pointers identifying the data, but delays delivery of the requested data until the scheduled delivery time, such as a particular day and time requested by the customer or a non-peak period as determined by the information provider. When the information provider determines that delivery is appropriate, it makes a request for a suppressed ringing connection to a switching system. The switching system responds to the request for connection by creating a suppressed ringing connection where a silent alert tone or digital alert signal is transmitted to the customer premise equipment. The customer premise equipment includes a receiving system that receives one or more tones from the switching system over the suppressed ringing connection and becomes active. Upon being activated, the receiving system causes the customer'scomputer or portions of the computer such as a particular memory to power-up such that the computer can receive the data from the information provider.
