Abstract: The device has a pipe (5) made of transparent material located between annular sealing pads (7). A camera cart (22) is connected to the device. The camera (24) is rotatable so that it can be aimed at the piping joint. The sealing pads sit in annular holders (6) of U-shaped cross-section, attached to the side ends of the transparent pipe. The device is positioned with the sealing pads at either side of joint. Hence the test space has a small volume and is filled in the shortest time with a minimum amount of test material, e.g. compressed air. A first air pressure pipe (11) discharges into the pads through the wall (14) of the holders. A second air pressure pipe (19) leads into the test space (18) by way of the transparent pipe or the main body. A pipe leads off from the second air pressure pipe to the pressure sensor (16). An electromagnetic valve (17) is arranged before the branching. An electric lead feeds from the pressure sensor to a display and processing electronics.

Abstract: A disk array controller enables a consistent, coherent memory image of
the data storage space to all processors across hot-plug interfaces. To external
processes seeking to read or write data, the memory image looks the same
across the hot-plug interfaces. The disk array controller has two identical
controllers (54a, 54b), each with its own non-volatile memory (62a, 62b), to
maintain redundant images of disk array storage space. A hot-plug interface
(64) interconnects the two controllers. Each controller has an AutoRAID
memory transaction manager (82a, 82b) that enables sharing of CRC-protected
memory transactions over the hot-plug interface between the two controllers.
The AutoRAID memory transaction managers also facilitate ordered execution of
the memory transactions regardless of which controller originated the
transactions. Mirrored read and write transactions are handled atomically across
the hot-plug interface.

Abstract: A clutch assembly for disposition in a motor vehicle drive line
includes an internal reaction force circuit. The clutch assembly
includes a multiple disc friction clutch (120B) disposed adjacent an
operator assembly (168,212) which selectively applies force to the
friction clutch to selectively transfer torque therethrough. The clutch
components are disposed between fixed stops (132,234) on an elongate
member (130b) which functions as a reaction force member to self-contain
the reaction force from the clutch operator. The clutch finds
application in motor vehicle drive line components such as a rear
(secondary) axle in which it is disposed in pairs to independently
control torque supplied to each axle and in applications where it is
advantageous to contain or ground the reaction force generated by and
associated with the clutch operator compactly within the clutch
structure rather than its housing.

Abstract: A method for providing secure remote control commands in a distributing
computer environment. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, a network
administrator or network management software creates a shutdown record, including an
index or time stamp, for powering down a specified network computer(s). Prior to
broadcast over the network, a secure one-way hash function is performed on the shutdown
record. The result of the one-way hash function is encrypted using the network
administrator's private key, thereby generating a digital signature that can be verified by
specially configured network nodes. The digital signature is appended to the original
shutdown record prior to broadcast to the network. Upon receiving the broadcast
message, the targeted network computer(s) validates the broadcast message by verifying
the digital signature of the packet or frame. The validation process is performed by
decrypting the hash value representation of the shutdown record using the network
administrator's public key. A one-way hash function is also performed on the original
shutdown record portion of the received message. If the two values match, the broadcast
message is determined to be authentic and the shutdown control code is executed. The
invention insures that the shutdown command was neither modified in transit nor
originated from an unauthorized source.
