IPC: B60R21/213
Filed: 2002-06-11
Abstract: In a window air bag system in which an air bag (10) designed to be inflated into the shape of a curtain in a lateral region of a passenger compartment b y being supplied with gas from an inflator (22) is stored in a folded state along a pillar portion (32) and a roof side rail (31). A hollow energy- absorbing member (51, 52) is disposed along a longitudinal direction of the pillar portion (32) and the roof side rail (31) in such a manner as to be contiguous to a position where the air bag (10) is stored in a folded state between the pillar portion (32) and pillar garnish (42) for covering the pillar portion (32) and between the roof side rail (31) and a side rail garnish (41) for covering the roof side rail (31). The direction of deployme nt of the air bag (10) can thus be stabilized. By reducing the amount of the garnish (42, 41) protruding into the passenger compartment, spaciousness of the passenger compartment, good visibility, and considerable ease with which a passenger can get on and off the vehicle can be guaranteed.

Inventor: BAYCROFT JACKIE I
IPC: E21B33/068
Filed: 2003-12-19
Abstract: Method and apparatus for protecting a wellhead drive assembly has a housing having a polish rod seal and utilizes standard flanges adapted to fit between the existing stuffing box of any wellhead drive assembly and the standard flange of a well for extending the longevity of the existing stuffing box. In another embodiment, the housing, with or without a polish rod seal, protects the wellhead drive assembly and sealing components from damage due to flushing pressures. The protector housing introduces a sealing ring adjacent the well end that seals around a tapered rod coupler of the polish rod when so lifted for preventing high flushing pressure from being exerted directly onto seal elements thereabove. As in the first embodiment, a polish rod seal can be fit to the housing for protecting a stuffing box portion of the wellhead assembly in addition to the sealing ring used for protection during flushing operations.

Title: Intruder alarm
Inventor: LAWRENCE MALCOLM GRAHAM
IPC: G08B15/00
Filed: 2001-03-07
Abstract: An alarm system comprises plural movement PIR detector of which three such detectors are shown and designated by reference numerals (1, 2 and 3). An alarm control box (4) is connected to the movement detectors (1, 2 and 3) so as to receive an activation signal from a movement detector which has been actuated by moveme nt from an intruder within its range. Control box (4) is connected to an illumination controller (5) provided to energise lamp s (6, 7, 8 and 9) intermittently once an alarm activation signal has been received by control box (4). Controller (5) is equipped to alternate the illumination of a lamp (6, 7, 8, 9) so that, upon receipt of a signal from control box (4) designated for the energisatio n of a particular lamp, the lamp is first energised so as to illuminate it to a level which causes closure of the irises of the eyes of t he intruder (but without permanent eye damage) and then de-energised so that illumination is near zero for sufficient time for iris recovery (e.g. a period of 6 seconds). Thereafter, the same lamp (or another lamp in response to detection of the intruder by another of the movement detectors) is illuminated (again) so as to close intruder's irises. In this way> the intruder's eyes are unable to acclimatise to the changing light conditions and his movement about the space addressed by the alarm system is seriously imparied.

Abstract: A media system (10) comprising a broadcast system (100), a tele-communication system (110), a content processing system (120, 130), and a user terminal (150). While a media stream is broadcast, a group of content items associated with the media stream are generated.
