Title: System and method for measuring the grip performance of a vehicle
Inventor: HALLIDAY DONALD R
IPC: G01M17/007
Filed: 1995-03-31
Granted: 1998-02-19
Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for measuring the grip performance of a vehicle through relation to a lumped-sum parameter derived from force and displacement measurements taken from selected elements forming the suspension of the vehicle. For at least one wheel of the vehicle, the magnitude and relative direction of the instantaneous load force vector acting on each support member thereof are measured. The load force vectors are resolved with respect to a relative plane into a first load force component, a second load force component normal to said first component, and a third load force component normal to said first and said second component. The load force components then are related to a common reference plane to derive normalized load force components, which normalized components then are summed to derive total normalized first, second, and third load force components which correspond to the instantaneous grip force developed between the wheel of the vehicle and the ground surface.

Patent AU-762565-B2 (AU)
Title: Quenching apparatus
Inventor: GARCIA RAUL JASSO SR
IPC: C10G9/14
Filed: 2000-03-23
Granted: 2003-06-26
Abstract: A quench nozzle design introduces quench oil tangentially into the quench tube which cools the hot gaseous pyrolysis products coming out of the hot radiant tubes in a pyrolysis furnace (in ethylene manufacture). Besides cooling the hot gases, the quench oil introduced into the quench tube by this nozzle design keeps the wall of the quench tube wetted, which is necessary to prevent coke deposition on the quench tube. The nozzle has one quench oil entry, which eliminates the need for any restriction orifice required to evenly distribute quench oil flows that would otherwise be required with several nozzle entries. Also, the one-nozzle oil introduction has a larger diameter than that required where more than one nozzle is employed in this service. The replacement of multiple nozzles with a single larger diameter nozzle eliminates plugging problems caused by coke solids or, coke solid precursors, present in the quench oil.

Patent AU-675793-B2 (AU)
Title: An internal combustion engine
Inventor: MERRITT DAN
IPC: F02B75/02
Filed: 1993-06-25
Granted: 1997-02-20
Abstract: An internal combustion engine has first and second cylinders (12, 14), the first cylinder (12) having a larger swept volume than the second cylinder (14) and the second cylinder being formed in the crown of the first cylinder. First and second pistons (16, 18) are reciprocable respectively in the first and second cylinders (12, 14), the second piston (18) being formed as a protrusion on the crown of the first piston (16). The first cylinder has an air inlet (25) and an exhaust outlet (27) whilst a first fuel source (34) provides fuel to the second cylinder (14). The second piston has a crown (35) which is spaced from and connected to the crown (36) of the first piston and which has an edge (37) which is relatively thin in the axial direction compared to the spacing of the first piston crown from the second piston crown. This defines a combustion space (20) between the piston crowns and a side wall (14a) of the second cylinder (14) when the pistons are substantially at the inner dead centre position. The combustion space (20) communicates with both cylinders (12,14) during part of the expansion stroke. A spark plug (52) is provided communicating with the combustion space. Inhibiting means is also provided for inhibiting ingression prior to the pistons (16,18) arriving at or adjacent the inner dead centre position. This can take the form of a gap (128) between the second piston crown (35) and the second cylinder side wall (14a) with a peripheral groove (39) in the second cylinder wall at its upper end to enable the fuel/air mixture in the second cylinder (14) above the crown (35) to bypass the piston crown when the latter is at its inner dead centre position and enter the combustion space (20). The geometrical compression ratio of the engine, being the ratio of the volumes within the cylinders available for occupation by gas at the piston outer and inner dead centre positions, is chosen to ensure that the pressure and temperature reached in said combustion space near the end of the compression stroke are insufficient to cause spontaneous compression ignition of the fuel used. The ignition process is started with a spark and allowed to continue by compression ignition. After the spark ignition process begins, the flame raises the pressure and temperature of the gas in the combustion space sufficiently to cause compression-ignition of the remainder of the vaporised fuel as it ingresses into the combustion space under the action of the smaller piston and mixes with more air. <IMAGE>
