Abstract: A tire alarm device gives a warning against the runflat operation limit of a pneumatic tire (1) during runflat operation, the tire having a reinforcement layer (13) disposed in each sidewall (12) thereof for enabling the runflat operation. The device includes a tire temperature sensor (44) used to warn of the runflat operation limit, and the tire temperature sensor is disposed on the inner surface (12a) of one of the sidewalls (12) facing the reinforcement layer (13) therein. Embodiments of the device also include a tire inner pressure sensor (45), for detecting pressure in the cavity of the tire, and a speed obtaining means (50) for obtaining the running speed of the vehicle on which the pneumatic tire is mounted, wherein processing means (51) determines whether or not the tire has reached its runflat operation limit based on signals from the temperature sensor (44), the inner pressure sensor (45) and the speed obtaining means (50).

Abstract: A method of obtaining data for use by a receiver of a satellite positioning system or a GNSS comprises deriving the data remotely from the receiver by a server (200), using meteorological information and a regional or global three dimensional map of grid points from which it computes tropospherical delays by ray tracing through the refractivity field derived from atmospheric measurements of pressure, temperature and water data content, such measurements being available from meteorological bodies. When used to enhance position determined by a user receiver that includes a non-meteorological, climate based model (130) giving zenith delays and means (130′) to map them to particular inclinations, the server also includes a copy of such non-meteorological model (230) and provides its ray traced delay values as zenith delays. The sets of zenith delay values for corresponding grid points are compared in the server (260) and modifications developed (preferably in fractional form) by which the non-meteorological delay values require correcting to be accurate. The correction sets are reduced by image compression techniques (270) and transmitted via the satellites (1101 etc) of the GNSS at low data rate to the user receiver, which receiver simply applies the corrections to the Zenith delays derived by its own model. If a user position is known, the server may derive accurate tropospheric delay values directly for the receiver position directly for transmission.

Abstract: It has been surprisingly discovered that administration of nitrite to subjects causes a reduction in blood pressure and an increase in blood flow to tissues. The effect is particularly beneficial, for example, to tissues in regions of low oxygen tension. This discovery provides useful treatments to regulate a subject's blood pressure and blood flow, for example, by the administration of nitrite salts. Provided herein are methods of administering a pharmaceutically-acceptable nitrite salt to a subject, for treating, preventing or ameliorating a condition selected from: (a) ischemia-reperfusion injury (e.g., hepatic or cardiac or brain ischemia-reperfusion injury); (b) pulmonary hypertension (e.g., neonatal pulmonary hypertension); or (c) cerebral artery vasospasm.

Abstract: A drive device for a vehicle miniaturizable or enabling an improvement in fuel consumption, comprising a selector clutch (C0) and a selector brake (B0) as differential state selector devices for selectively switching between a differential state (steplessly variable transmission state) in which a power distribution mechanism (16) can be operated as an electric steplessly variable transmission and a fixed speed state in which the power distribution mechanism can be operated as a transmission with a fixed transmission gear ratio. In the high speed traveling area of the vehicle or in the high rotational speed area of an engine (8), the power distribution mechanism (16) is brought into the fixed speed state, and the output of the engine (8) is transmitted to drive wheels (38) exclusively through a mechanical power transmission route to suppress the loss of conversion between the power and an electric power so as to improve the fuel consumption. Also, in the high output area of the engine (8), the power distribution mechanism (16) is brought into the fixed speed state, and an electric reaction to be assured by a first motor (M1) can be reduced. As a result, the first motor (M) or the drive device (10) for the vehicle including the first motor can be further miniaturized.

Abstract: A rider surface maintenance vehicle with variable dynamic braking, in contrast to a mechanically-engaged braking system that uses a brake cable. A brake pedal engages a sensor that encodes the pedal position as an electronic signal. The electronic signal, along with the vehicle velocity, determines a machine deceleration rate, or braking rate, either by calculation, lookup table, or a combination of the two. The braking rate may be tuned so that the of the brake mimics or approximates the feel of a conventional mechanically-engaged brake that uses a brake cable. During stopping, once the vehicle passes below a threshold velocity, a parking brake is automatically engaged. The braking rate is converted to a duty cycle, and the braking is preferably accomplished by pulse width modulation (PWM) of an electrical load applied in parallel to the motor.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for treating a fluid to destroy, remove, or reduce undesirable agents, such as microorganisms, particles or ions, contained in the fluid and/or to inhibit the formation of scale are disclosed. The invention includes an apparatus for treating a fluid to destroy, remove, or reduce undesirable agents, such as microorganisms, particles, or ions, contained in the fluid and/or to inhibit the formation of scale. The apparatus can include an open fluid directional means or conduit. The preferred open fluid directional means is a conduit manufactured of resilient, corrosion-resistant material. The apparatus is attached to a power source and has a controller means. The controller means is desirably a microprocessor and can include a switching means for regulating the current to the apparatus. However, simpler circuits and components can be used for the controller means. The apparatus includes a field generating means. The field generating means forms a treatment field. The treatment field is a magnetic field and/or an electrical field in an effective dose sufficient to treat the fluid. The effective dose is determined by the exposure time(s) and strength(s) of the treatment field(s) and the concentration of contaminants present in the fluid subjected to the treatment.
