  • Patent number: 11914993
    Abstract: An aggregate representation of a collection of source code examples is constructed. The collection includes positive examples that conform to a coding practice and negative examples do not conform to the coding practice. The aggregate representation includes nodes corresponding to source code elements, and edges representing relationships between code elements. Using an iterative analysis of the aggregate representation, a rule to automatically detect non-conformance is generated. The rule is used to provide an indication that a set of source code is non-conformant.

  • Patent number: 6071272
    Abstract: This invention relates to a method for treating erectile dysfunctionality by injecting pharmacological agents into the corpora cavernosa of the penis. The present invention employs an improved method for injecting pharmacological agents into the corpora cavernosa of the penis which does not require a hypodermic needle and the attendant problems associated with the use of hypodermic needles to inject pharmacological agents into the penis and to provide a new treatment option to many patients with erectile dysfunctionality.

  • Patent number: 5412921
    Abstract: An I-beam structure is made from discarded tire belts wherein the beam web is constructed from two car or truck tire belts joined centrally along their lengths tread to tread. Flange members are made of a single ply of truck tire belts joined end to end or of a two ply laminated structural material wherein each ply is a continuous car tire belt, and the two plies are bonded tread to tread along their lengths. The flange forming members are attached to the web by adhesive or vulcanization bonding which may be reinforced with mechanical fasteners.

  • Patent number: 5340630
    Abstract: A two ply laminated structural material is made from used vehicle tires, such as steel belted radial automobile tires. Each ply consists of a plurality of individual tread bearing tire belts joined end to end. The individual belts are made from tires by removing the tire sidewalls and transversely cutting the annular remainder. The individual belts are joined so as to provide a continuous structural belt capable of carrying a load in tension. By bonding two such belts together thread to thread using adhesive or vulcanization, a structural material is obtained having sufficient stiffness and strength to be used in the manufacture of a variety of rubber products.

  • Patent number: 5316815
    Abstract: A tubular rubber structure is made from a plurality of tire sidewalls joined together in a stacked array over which a tire, being split or having a sidewall removed, is fitted and secured to it. A further structure is made from two tires and up to about 20 sidewalls. The structures have a variety of uses as energy attenuators, erosion stabilizers and as a means for tire disposal.

  • Patent number: 5294273
    Abstract: A composite belt of used vehicle tires having their sidewalls removed is obtained by joining individual belts in end to end relation by forming tapered belt ends which are overlapped and chemically bonded together. The overlapping of belt ends is accomplished so as to provide a high degree of strength to the joint enabling the composite belt to be used as a substrate for the further manufacture of rubber products.

  • Patent number: 5054541
    Abstract: A prefabricated ground coil assembly for use in association with a ground source heat pump comprises a flexible pipe configured as a double spiral. The outermost turns of the spiral are provided with an inlet connection and an outlet connection for heat exchange fluid, respectively. The turns of the spiral are interconnected by flexible constraining means so that the assembly is extendible axially from a nested annular configuration to an elongate coniform configuration in which the turns of the double spiral are supported in predetermined space relation by the flexible constraining means. The assembly is easy to install, and can be installed in a relatively shallow pit which occupies only a small ground area.
