Title: Tyre pressure warning device
Filed: 2011-03-10
Abstract: Under inflation is a common cause of catastrophic failure of pneumatic tyres. Consequently, efforts have been made to provide means to warn a driver when a tyre is under inflated. One approach is to use a pressure measuring device mounted onto an external threat of the vale stem. A problem with this is that there is a risk of it being blown off the stem by the air pressure within the tyre. Other systems include a sensor mounted within the tyre cavity which comprises a transmitter which transmits pressure information to a receiver within the cabin of the car. This overcomes the problems of the other solution but is expensive to implement. These problems are overcome by integrating the alert device with a tyre valve stem, which is usually formed as a separate piece to the tyre. The sensor can be mounted within the tyre cavity, and an alert means, such as a light, can be mounted to the portion of the stem lying outside of the tyre where it can be seen by the vehicle's owner.

Title: A method of manufacturing a basket
Filed: 2011-06-14
Abstract: A curved wire basket having a wire lattice base comprising two sets of parallel wires at an angle to one another to form the base lattice, and having a side wall with a curved portion, the wires proximate the curved portion 74 being angled to extend directly towards the perimeter of the base i.e. extending along the radius of the curve to avoid large gaps in the mesh. The basket is made by placing the first and second sets of straight wires on top of one another in a former or mould on top of a peripheral wire (49, Figure 6) and soldering them together. The wires are fastened together e.g. by welding to form a uniform mesh section. Wires having bent ends are welded to the mesh proximate the curved wall portion. The ends of the wires extending from the base are bent upwards to form the sidewalls and attached to a top frame (43, Figure 6) Wire bands (45-48, Figure 6) may be placed around the basket and welded thereto. The lattice may comprise square, rectangle or diamond shapes.

Title: System and method for range and velocity estimation in video data as a function of antropometric measures
Filed: 2011-12-22
Abstract: A system and method calculate a range and velocity of an object in image data. The range calculation includes detecting a contour of the object from the image data, forming a template from the image data based on the contour; and calculating a range to the object using pixel resolution and dimension statistics of the object. A three-dimensional velocity of the object is determined by calculating a radial component and an angular component of the velocity. The radial velocity component is calculated by determining the range of the object in two or more image frames, determining a time differential between the two or more image frames, and calculating the radial velocity as a function of the range of the object in the two or more image frames and the time differential between the two or more image frames. The angular component is calculated using spatial-temporal derivatives as a function of a motion constraint equation.

Title: Valve and method of operating a valve
Filed: 2012-09-26
Abstract: A valve typically used in an oil or gas well, having a moveable member such as a ball movable between open and closed configurations and having a cutting device arranged to shear against an anvil member when the ball is moving between the open and closed configurations; and having a sealing member providing a seat for seating of the moveable member when the moveable member is in the closed configuration. The anvil member and the sealing member are moveable relative to one another when the moveable member is moving from the open to the closed configuration, so that during opening and closing the sealing member is displaced away from the cutting device (typically the inner surface of the bore) as the cutting device engages the anvil member. The sealing member is pushed away from the moveable member and the anvil to a maximum separation from the movable member at the point on the stroke when the cutting surface of the moveable member is moving past the anvil member, so that the sealing member is moved out of contact with the ball when the cutting surface engages the anvil member, and moves back into contact with the ball when the cutting surface has passed the anvil member and the sealing surface of the ball is aligned with the sealing member.
