Patent CA-2411632-C (CA)
Inventor: DRAKE THOMAS E JR
IPC: G01S17/89

Granted: 2013-09-17
Abstract: The invention is directed to an ultrasonic testing system. The system tests a manufactured part for various physical attributes, including specific flaws, defects, or composition of materials. The part can be housed in a gantry system that holds the part stable. An energy generator illuminates the part within energy and the part emanates energy from that illumination. Based on the emanations from the part, the system can determined precisely where the part is in free space. The energy illumination device and the receptor have a predetermined relationship in free space. This means the location of the illumination mechanism and the reception mechanism is known. Additionally, the coordinates of the actual testing device also have a predetermined relationship to the illumination device, the reception device, or both. Thus, when one fixes the points in free space where the part is relative to either of the illumination device or the reception device, one can fix the point and/or orientation of the testing device to that part as well. It should be noted that the results of the point and/or orientation detection may also be used in an actuator and control system. If the position of the testing device needs to be altered with respect to the tested object, the control system and actuator may use the results of this determination to move the testing device relative to the tested object.

Title: Proxy method and system for secure wireless administration of managed entities
Inventor: DOREE JIM
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2002-12-19
Granted: 2009-08-18
Abstract: A method, system and apparatus are described for avoiding the use of a web- server or generic security when providing network administration services remotely to managed entities using wireless technology. Instead a true Proxy device, not operating as a web-server, is used to pre-process all command traffic from wireless input devices (WID). The intervention between the WID and the managed entities of the Proxy isolating the managed entities from the WID, enhanced by encoding using a novel messaging protocol, further enhanced by a novel security model based on multiple pre-shared keys and algorithms together with identifiers and passwords that are not transmitted, achieves several bandwidth and security advantages including the ability to deliver TELNET services across the Internet and behind a firewall.

Abstract: A sensor module (110) includes a module case (112) coupled to a module cap (114). The module cap (114) provides an access into the module case (112) for one or more electrical conductors of a telemetry cable. Housed in the module case (112) and module cap (114) is a sensor electronics package (116), the module case (112) is constructed with a wall thickness that allows for wall flexure to provide damping of high-g shock input. The outer surface (126) may include a longitudinal ridge (128). The longitudinal ridge (128) provides a key-type fit to prevent inadvertent rotation after the sensor module (110) is inserted into the ground. Disposed between the module tip (120) and the sensor electronics package (116) is an isolator (115) for isolating the sensor electronics package from damaging mechanical shock axially induced in the sensor module (110). The isolator (115) may comprise one or more layers (115a) and (115b) of vibration-isolating material. A first isolating layer 115a adjoins the electronic package 116 and a second isolating layer (115b). The second isolating layer (115b) adjoins the first isolating layer (115a) and the module tip (120). The first isolating layer (115a) is manufactured from a material such as silicone, and the second iasolating layer (115b) is manufactured from a material such as high-damping polyurethane foam. A second, and similary constructed isolator (130) is disposed between the sensor electronics package (116) and the module cap (114). The sensor module (110) includes one or more MEMS accelerometers in an electronic package (116).

Abstract: A hydraulic liner hanger (100) is provided. The liner hanger comprises a tubular body (110). A plurality of slips (140) are disposed radially around the outer surface of the body. In one arrangement, each slip has wickers (144) for engaging the inner surface of a surrounding string of casing (50). Each slip is connected to a slip ring (120), the slip ring also being circumferentially disposed around the outer surface of the body. At least some of the slip members are received upon a wedge surface (150), or cone(s). In operation, an expander tool (200) such as a hydraulic setting tool acts upon the liner hanger, causing the slips (140) to be expanded into frictional engagement with the surrounding string of casing (50). The operator is then able to slack off the weight of the liner, allowing multiple slips to engage the casing and to suspend the liner therebelow.

Abstract: Coating-type compositions and methods using the compositions for making new forms of chip-type and other fried or baked snack and/or convenience food items, including sweet goods, which are externally coated with and/or directly incorporate the compositions into their dough matrix. The compositions significantly increase the crispness and tensile strength of the food item after it is cooked with them in place, and so change both the organoleptic and storage qualities of the foods as to provide a new form of the underlying product. Once sweet goods, the coating provides a stabilizing surface barrier for sugar toppings which prevents them from becoming tacky, moist, or wet, while adding crispness at the surface and simultaneously reducing moisture loss from the baked dough, greatly retarding staling. The coatings also provide a new and better way of applying seasonings and colorings to food products.
