Title: Rolling mill finishing section
Inventor: SHORE T MICHAEL
IPC: B21B39/18
Filed: 2002-01-02
Granted: 2005-12-20
Abstract: In a single strand hot rolling mill finishing section a plurality of multi-stand prefinishing rolling units are arranged along and are selectively shiftable onto and off of a first pass line segment. A multi-stand finishing rolling unit and a multi-stand post finishing rolling unit are arranged sequentially along a second pass line segment. A switch and associated delivery guides are selectively operable to direct products from the first pass Line segment to the second pass line segment either at a location upstream of said finishing rolling unit, or alternatively, at a location between the finishing rolling unit and the post finishing rolling unit. With this arrangement, final rolling in the post finishing rolling unit may be preceded with or without rolling in the finishing rolling unit and with or without rolling in one or more of the prefinishing rolling units.

Abstract: An open forklift truck is provided having an elongated windshield that protects the operator from wind chills experienced when operating the truck in a cold storage environment. The windshield is a laminate having a plurality of heating elements disposed therein that are electrically connected to a control and are energized when the windshield falls below a predetermined temperature to prevent condensation from accumulating on the windshield when the truck is moved into a warmer environment. Accordingly, both sides of the windshield are maintained at a temperature greater than the dew point of the warmer environment.

Granted: 2004-11-30
Abstract: This invention is a method for nondestructively determining the deterioration of determining ferromagnetic materials by quantifying the change in brittleness with aging of the materials. This invention supposes acquirement of an embrittlement coefficient b by measuring a magnetic susceptibility .CHI. b of ferromagnetic materials under a magnetic field having a specified intensity H.  And the coefficient b of the ferromagnetic materials is calculated by putting the intensity H and the susceptibility .CHI. b into an equation: b = .CHI.b H2. By the coefficient b, a correlation between the coefficient b and a referenced embrittlement factor of materials like said determining materials is obtained previously. Said coefficient b of said determining materials in the initial and the deteriorated states is acquired. The factor corresponding to the coefficient b is obtained from the correlation. It is possible to quantify the change by comparing the values of the factor in the initial and deteriorated states.

Title: Scalable internet engine
Inventor: SMITH PHILIP S
IPC: G06F9/50
Filed: 2001-06-28
Granted: 2005-08-30
Abstract: A scalable Internet engine (100) is comprised of a large number of commercially available server boards (134) each arranged as an engine blade (132) in a power and space efficient cabinet (110). The engine blades (132) are removably positioned in a front side (112) of the cabinet (110) in a vertical orietation. A through plane (130) in the middle of a chassis assembly within the cabinet provides common power and control peripheral signals to all engine blades. I/O signals for each engine blade are routed through apertures in the through plane to interface cards positioned in the rear of the cabinet.  The scalable engine (100) can accommodate different types of server boards in the same chassis assembly because of a common blade carrier structure.  Different types of commercially available motherboards (200) are mounted in the common blade carrier structure that provides a uniform mechanical interface to the chassis assembly. A specially designed PCI host board that can plug into various types of motherboards has a first connector (205) for connecting to the through plane and second connector for connecting to the interface cards.

Granted: 2011-03-22
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système d'ancrage pour fixer un cathéter de dialyse sur un patient, qui comporte un coussinet d'ancrage et un élément de retenue. Le coussinet d'ancrage se fixe sur la peau du patient grâce à une couche adhésive située sur une face du coussinet. L'élément de retenue se place sur la surface du coussinet d'ancrage située du côté opposé à la couche adhésive, et comprend une base, un couvercle et un point adhésif. Une rainure située sur la base permet de recevoir une partie de site en Y d'un cathéter de dialyse, où les lumières se réunissent de façon distale par rapport au site d'insertion. Une tige dépassant de la base en direction du couvercle vient se positionner entre les deux branches distales du cathéter de dialyse. Le couvercle se referme sur la base, fixant le site en Y entre la rainure et la tige. La fermeture du couvercle met aussi au moins une partie du cathéter en contact avec le point adhésif. Ce contact entre l'élément de retenue, le point adhésif et le cathéter permet d'empêcher un déplacement accidentel du cathéter sur le patient. Un mécanisme de verrouillage est placé sur l'élément de retenue afin de maintenir le couvercle en position fermée sur le site en Y du cathéter fixé à la base.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des marqueurs de surveillance électronique de produits et des procédés de fabrication et d'utilisation correspondants. Dans un aspect, elle concerne un marqueur hybride désactivable intégré qui peut être utilisé dans des systèmes de surveillance d'articles à harmoniques magnétiques ou à radiofréquences. Le ou les élément(s) du marqueur générant les harmoniques est inséré dans un circuit résonant à radiofréquences en tant que partie active du circuit. Le marqueur est désactivé par un autre élément fait d'un matériau à coercitivité magnétique élevée. Placé dans un champ d'interrogation à radiofréquences, le marqueur hybride provoque une augmentation de l'absorption du signal transmis de manière à réduire le signal dans la bobine réceptrice du système de surveillance à radiofréquences. Placé dans une zone d'interrogation d'un système de surveillance d'articles à harmoniques, le marqueur génère des harmoniques élevées de la fréquence d'interrogation qui peuvent être détectées par le récepteur du système de surveillance. En outre, les fonctions radiofréquences et harmoniques du marqueur hybride peuvent être désactivées au moyen d'un processus unique. De plus, l'invention concerne l'utilisation d'un matériau à pâte conductrice pour faire imprimer des circuits à radiofréquences, ce qui permet de réduire les coûts du processus de fabrication.

Granted: 2010-09-28
Abstract: An in situ process for conducting regeneration of spent hydrocarbon synthesis catalyst. Regenerated, but not yet re-activated, catalyst (15) may be introduced into an operating HCS reactor (1) that has catalyst rejuvenation means (14). Any combination of a fresh, activated catalyst, a fresh, passivated catalyst or short-term or long-term deactivated catalysts may already be present in the HCS reactor (1). The regenerated, but not yet re-activated catalyst is activated in the HCS reactor (1) with rejuvenation means (14) at normal process conditions. The HCS reactor (1) receives syngas through the inlet line (3) and releases liquid hydrocarbons through outlet line (4) and gaseous hydrocarbon and unreacted syngas through the offgas line (2).  Catalyst is removed from the HCS reactor (1) through the slipstream line (5) and into a filtration unit (6) which is fed with a stripping fluid (7). The filtered catalyst proceeds to the regeneration unit (9) which is fed a regenerative fluid (10). The regenerated catalyst is returned to the HCS  Reactor (1) through the catalyst return line (11) where it is reactivated.
