Title: Method of increasing ph of high-density brines
Inventor: WALKER MICHAEL L
IPC: C09K8/54
Filed: 2002-07-11
Granted: 2009-12-22
Abstract: It has been discovered that carbonate powders and bicarbonate powders are useful to increase the pH and corrosion resistance of high-density brines, such as zinc bromide brines, without significantly reducing their densities.  The carbonates and/or bicarbonates should be water-soluble and may be sodium, potassium, magnesium and/or ammonium carbonates and/or bicarbonates and the like.

Title: A subscriber unit and method for use in a wireless communication system
Inventor: ODENWALDER JOSEPH P
IPC: H04B1/707

Granted: 2011-11-22
Abstract: A method and apparatus for high rate CDMA wireless communication is described. Variable data rates are generated using a set of different encoder, interleaver, and symbol repetition configurations. An encoder associated with each rate generates a variable number of symbols during each frame period. This variable number of symbols is repeated as necessary to form a constant number of symbols equal to a fixed number of symbols that can be then repeated a fixed number of repetitions before transmission. Where the constant number of symbols is not an integer multiple of the variable number of symbols for a particular rate, a subset of the variable number of symbols is repeated to fill in the remaining symbols necessary to equal the constant number of symbols.

Abstract: In an elliptical step exercise apparatus where stride length can be varied the various user programs can take advantage of this feature to provide for an enhanced workout. A control system can be used to implement a preprogrammed exercise routine such as a hill program where stride is shortened as the user goes up a simulated hill and lengthened as the user goes down the hill. In an interval training program, stride length can be increased and decreased at periodic intervals. In a cross training program, stride length can be decreased when the user is pedaling backwards and increased when the user is pedaling forwards.

Abstract: A highly automated non-confining system to continuously, or at selected time intervals identify, measure, monitor and manage the consumption behavior, substance intake, body weight and growth of individual animals in their usual production environment including range, pasture, feedlot, dairy and farm without disruption to typical behaviors in order to determine, analyze, model and predict a variety of conditions relating to animal health, productivity, efficiency and quality. A transmitter generally attached to the animal identifies the individual animal by a unique individual code. A weighing device measures animal weight while an animal is consuming substances. An antenna receives the unique signal from the transmitter and a transmitting and receiving device sends acquired signals to a computer and receives instructions from a computer. A computer acquires signals and modifications incorporated in the computer generate an event or interval measurement of an animal's weight and gain, growth rate and substance consumption, and the animal behavior affecting the measurement. A visual identification mechanism marks cattle that the computer system has determined require intervention. The system models and predicts animal health and growth, performance, carcass characteristics, feed utilization, manure and methane output.

Abstract: The lift system comprises a lift cage, a roller arrangement and a support and/or drive and/or guide element in the form of a belt (30). The roller arrangement comprises two rollers (10, 20) with axes (12 or 22) of rotation which are approximately parallel. The rollers (10, 20) have structured circumferential surfaces (13, 23) with parallel roller ribs (17.1) and roller grooves (17.2) and rotate in opposite sense when the lift cage is moved. The belt (30) forms an under-looping for support of the lift cage. It runs directly from the roller (10) to the roller (20). The belt (30) has a structured belt main surface (33) which is complementary to the structures of the rollers (10, 20). In a region (A) disposed between the two rollers (10, 20) the belt (30) is twisted about the longitudinal axis (32) thereof so that the belt main surface (33) comes into engagement with the circumferential surfaces (13, 23) of the two rollers (10, 20) when the belt (30) runs over the rollers (10, 20) rotating in opposite sense.

Abstract: The invention relates to a steam generator (1) in which the continuous heating panel of an evaporator (8) is arranged in a heating gas channel (6) which can be cross-flown in a more or less horizontal direction of a heating gas (x).  Said continuous heating panel of the evaporator comprises a plurality of pipes of a steam generator (12) which are connected in parallel to each other. Said pipes are constructed in such a way that they cross a flow medium (D, W) and are provided with the part of a more or less vertical down pipe (20) which can be cross-flown by the flow medium (D, W) in a downward direction and with the part of a rising pipe (22) connected downstream with respect to the down pipe on the side of the flow medium and which is more or less vertical and can be cross-flown by the flow medium (D, W) in an upward direction. The continuous heating panel of the evaporator (8) is arranged in such a way that one pipe of the steam generator (12) which is hotter than the other pipe of the steam generator (12) of the same continuous heating panel of the evaporator (8) has a flow medium (D, W) rate which is higher than that of the other pipe of the steam generator (12). The aim of said invention is to operate said steam generator in a relatively simple manner in association with a highly stable flow in the continuous heating panel of the evaporator (8). For this purpose, the flow medium (D, W) of the continuous heating panel of the evaporator (8) is supplied in such a way that the flow velocity thereof is higher than a minimum flow velocity predefined in the down pipe (20). The inventive steam generator (1) is extremely well adapted for carrying out said method and comprises another continuous heating panel of the evaporator (10) which is connected downstream with respect to the continuous heating panel of the evaporator (8) on the side of the flow medium.

Granted: 2013-05-14
Abstract: An ultrasonic interferometer for the characterization of the matter (solids, fluids & gases) in a medium is described, along with a method of using the same. The interferometer accurately determines the travel time of the multi-frequency ultrasonic signal in the matter that is being queried. By carefully selecting the design of the multi-frequency ultrasound signal, various properties of the material can be derived using a trainable classification system to classify or recognise the substance, or state of a process. The apparatus exploits the normally undesirable higher harmonics characteristics of the piezoceramic transducer to gain penetration through a spatial-frequency window that is not suitable for the higher frequency signals that are required to achieve the measurements.
