Title: Wrench for providing a fixed or adjustable maximum torque
Inventor: ANITUA ALDECOA EDUARDO
IPC: B25B23/142
Filed: 2009-11-12
Abstract: Wrench (1) for providing a maximum torque to an external part, characterised in that it comprises at least one elongated metal part (3) provided with a fixed end (4) and a pusher end (5), and which also comprises a torque-applying head (6) upon which the pusher end (5) acts, wherein the elongated metal part (3) is capable of bending when a torque is applied with the wrench, and wherein the elongated metal part (3) reaches a maximum bending point that determines the maximum torque provided by the wrench (1). The inventive wrench (1) is easier to use than conventional spring-based wrenches as the force required to adjust the torque is minimal and independent of the torque value to which the wrench is adjusted. It is also capable of providing higher torque values.

Abstract: A biological waste-water treatment using a biological reactor is described where the processes are conducted in an alternating and joint, aerobic zone, anoxic zone and aerobic zone arrangement. Raw waste-water is transferred to the aerobic zone and/or to the anoxic zone. The waste-water is also transferred from the last anoxic zone to the last aerobic zone, which acts as an exit from the biological reactor. In the process of external recirculation to the aerobic zone, sludge from the bottom of the secondary precipitation tank is moved to the aerobic zone.  In the process of internal recirculation the content of the last aerobic zone is divided between anoxic zone and aerobic zone. From the last aerobic zone, waste-water is transferred with the sludge to the secondary precipitation tank, where the clean waste-water is separated from the sludge on the bottom of the secondary precipitation tank.

Abstract: A system and method for repairing and reinforcing a pipeline includes a pair of opposing composite wrap bands that are located on the external surface of the pipeline and positioned a predetermined horizontal distance from a jointed section of the pipeline. A composite wrap is then applied over the bands to create a bridge that spans the bands and forms a cavity above the jointed section. A second pair of bands located on the external surface of the bridge provides structural support. An actuator within the bridge monitors the pressure within the cavity and activates upon the presence of internal pressure, indicating that a gasket failure has occurred. A fitting may also be inserted into the bridge in order to pressurize the cavity and test the repair.

Abstract: A device, such as a communication device or data processing device, is configured to transition between a locked and unlocked state in response to a detected action that is interpreted as a continuous or single action. In an embodiment a first input is detected at a first input mechanism of the device when the device is locked, then a second input is detected at the second input. If the inputs are determined to be continuous, for example if the second input is detected within a predetermined period after completion of the first input, the device is unlocked. The input may also be combined or interpreted as a password or security code. Conversely, if a detected action is interpreted as a continuous or single action by an unlocked device, the device may enter the locked state in response to the detected action.  Methods for implementing this transition between locked and unlocked states are also provided.

IPC: F28F3/08
Filed: 2010-05-21
Abstract: An annular design heat exchanger is formed from an arrangement of wedge-shaped stacks of wafers. Each wafer includes sheets of material separated by peripheral and supporting walls that define interior flow channels through which a first fluid can flow. Holes in the sheets provide inlets and outlets to the channels, and walls surrounding the holes mate with neighbor-ing wafers in the stack, forming integral inlet and outlet manifolds, while ensuring uniform spacing between the wafers. A second fluid can flow around the manifolds and through the spaces between the wafers in a counterflow pattern. In the annular assembly, the manifolds are oriented substantially axially, and the flow channels are oriented substantially radially. The heat exchanger can be formed from a ceramic material, and can be incorporated into an engine assembly or a heat-recirculating combustor.

In some embodiments, the control video stream is a lower bandwidth signal than the primary video stream. Furthermore, the fifth subsystem is capable of receiving and re-transmitting control video streams from a plurality of cameras simultaneously. The second subsystem allows remote access to the first subsystem, such as via the third subsystem, based on approved credentials.

Abstract: A method of predicting a degree of risk of early ovarian aging of a young female. The method includes analyzing the female's FMR1 gene, wherein the FMR1 gene has a first allele and a second allele; determining the number of triple CGG repeats on each of the first and second alleles; defining a normal range of triple CGG repeats; comparing the number of triple CGG repeats on each of the first and second alleles to the normal range. If the triple CGG repeat numbers for both of the first and second alleles are within the normal range, then the female is at minimal risk for early ovarian aging. If the triple CGG repeat number for one of the first and second alleles is outside of the normal range and the other one of the first and second alleles is within the normal range, then the first and second alleles are heterozygous and the female is at increased risk for early ovarian aging. If the triple CGG repeat numbers for both of the first and second alleles are outside of the normal range, then the first and second alleles are homozygous and the female is also at an increased risk for early ovarian aging.

Abstract: An agricultural combine has a header height control circuit supplied with hydraulic fluid from a closed center pump. The pump has a variable displacement. The pump displacement is controlled by a control line connected to the pump. The control line is supplied with fluid from the feederhouse lift cylinders that passes through a valve. The valve supplies hydraulic fluid at the feederhouse lift cylinders to the control line of the pump. Upon receiving fluid from the valve the closed center pump rapidly changes its outlet pressure to match the pressure in the feederhouse lift cylinders and thus reduces the response time of the closed center pump.
