Abstract: The exercise apparatus disclosed herein is used to simulate skating or roller blading movement in a user, and thereby exercise and tone the muscles used for skating. The apparatus inlcudes a pair of sleds or shuttles which include a pedal adapted to support the foot of a user standing thereon. The shuttles are movable along a respective guide assembly consisting of one or more rails which curve away from each other extending from proximate forwardmost ends, outwardly and rearwardly. The rail assemblies are provided in a substantially mirror arrangement and curve downwardly from their respective forwardmost ends to a lowermost distal portion. A guide member is provided to assist in positioning and maintaining the shuttles in sliding movement along each guide assembly, whereby the reciprocal sliding movement of the shuttles along an associated guide assembly acts to guide the feet of the user in skating or roller blade movement.

Abstract: An ergonomic cable tie installation tool includes a generally pistol-shaped housing including a grip which depends from a barrel. Pivotally connected to the lower region of the grip is a trigger linkage of a trigger mechanism. The trigger mechanism also includes an intermediate linkage pivotally connected to the trigger linkage. The intermediate linkage is supported in the housing. The intermediate linkage is, in turn, connected to a tensioning mechanism also supported in the housing. The tensioning mechanism couples the intermediate linkage to the cable tie. Pivoting the trigger linkage toward the grip, normally by the hand of a user, causes the intermediate linkage to pivot resulting in the tensioning mechanism producing an increased tension in the cable tie. The trigger linkage is oriented relative to the grip such that pivoting it toward the grip requires the stronger fingers of the user's hand to travel more than the weaker fingers thereby improving the ergonomics of the tool. The trigger linkage may also make the respective travel distances of the stronger and weaker fingers more uniform also improving the ergonomics of the cable tie installation tool. Moreover, the trigger mechanism may provide for the tension force applied to the cable tie to increase as the trigger linkage is increasingly pivoted toward the closed position. Methods of operating the tool also provide improved ergonomics of the tool.

Filed: 2003-05-20
Granted: 2010-07-20
Abstract: A detailed linkage analysis is performed on the Ehd1 domain on a population separated on a large scale which is essentially required in map base cloning. As a result, an Ehd1 gene promoting rice earing (flowering) is successfully isolated. It is also found out that the earing time of rice can be altered by transferring this gene. Based on these facts, it is expected that the newly isolated and identified Ehd gene would be usable in promoting plant flowering.

Abstract: L'invention concerne en règle générale la manipulation de matériaux et en particulier un dispositif de distribution de matériaux sous forme de poudre fine, du type toner. Selon un aspect, l'invention concerne un dispositif de distribution comprenant: un corps de dispositif (10) a extrémité d'admission (14) et extrémité de sortie (16); un passage de transport (12) entre les deux extrémités, sachant que la section transversale interne à l'extrémité d'admission (22) du passage de transport (12) est égale ou inférieure à celle de l'extrémité de sortie (16) du passage de transport (12); au moins deux connecteurs hermétiques (18, 20), aux extrémités d'admission (14) et de sortie (16), ou près d'elles, sachant que le dispositif à l'utilisation peut être relié de façon hermétique à des récipients remplisseurs et non remplis, respectivement. Il s'agit d'une configuration qui, dans la connexion hermétique entre le dispositif et le récipient non rempli, assure une étanchéité par rapport à l'air, de manière à déplacer l'air contenu dans ce récipient, par le biais de la poudre du récipient remplisseur, et à l'écouler dans le passage de transport durant l'opération de remplissage. Cette technique est très avantageuse car elle induit une agitation de matériau dans le passage, réduisant les risques de bouchage et d'encombrement.

Granted: 2014-10-14
Abstract: L'invention porte sur un élément d'ossature dont une des parties de l'âme comporte une série de fentes élargies pendant le processus de fabrication. L'élargissement des fentes crée dans l'âme des vides, et des parties métalliques d'âme pouvant servir d'entretoises. Les vides ainsi créés peuvent servir à faire passer les câbles, et les tuyaux sanitaires et de chauffage. Les éléments d'âme peuvent être conçus pour réduire les transferts thermiques entre l'extérieur et l'intérieur d'une paroi comportant l'élément d'ossature tout en présentant les caractéristiques adéquates requises d'éléments structuraux. Cet élargissement des fentes, qui n'implique pas d'augmentation du volume des matériaux constitutifs, permet une réduction substantielle des coûts de fabrication.

Title: High velocity method for deposing diamond films from a gaseous phase in shf discharge plasma and a plasma reactor for carrying out said method
Inventor: VIKHAREV ANATOLIY LEONTIEVICH
IPC: C23C16/511
Filed: 2003-09-18
Granted: 2012-06-26
Abstract: The invention relates to carbon deposition by decomposing gaseous compounds with the aid of the SHF discharge plasma and can be used, for example for producing polycrystalline diamond films (plates), which are used for producing output windows of power SHF sources, for example gyrotrons. Said invention ensures a high speed deposition of the high quality diamond films (having a loss-tangent angle .delta. equal to or less than 3x10 -5) on supports whose diameter is equal to or higher than 100 mm. For this purpose, a SHF discharge is initiated in a gas mixture which is arranged in a reaction chamber and contains at least hydrogen and hydrocarbon. Afterwards, said gas mixture is activated by producing a stable nonequilibrium plasma with the aid of SHF radiation having a frequency f which is many times higher than a commonly used frequency of 2.45 GHz, for example 30 GHz. In order to localise the plasma, a standing wave is formed near the carrier and plasma layers are formed in the antinodes thereof in such a way that the sizes thereof are adjustable.

Title: Audio based methods and apparatus for detecting a channel change event
Inventor: DENG KEVIN K
IPC: H04N9/00
Filed: 2003-08-29
Granted: 2012-03-13
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for detecting a channel change event are disclosed. The disclosed methods and apparatus detect a channel change event by monitoring an audio signal of an information presentation device such as a television system. The monitored audio signal is tested for certain characteristics indicative of a channel change event. In some information presentation devices, changing channels produces an audible "pop" sound. In other information presentation devices, the "pop" sound produced by changing channels is muted by the information presentation device. Once a channel change event is detected, an audience measurement system may automatically determine what program is on the information presentation device.  Alternatively, an audience member may be prompted to manually enter what program is on the information presentation device.
