The groove portion is provided with at least one through hole opening for a mounting member.

Abstract: Transport Layer Security (TLS) connection establishment between a client and a server for a new session is enabled using an ephemeral (temporary) key pair. In response to a request, the server generates a temporary certificate by signing an ephemeral public key using the server's private key. A certificate chain comprising at least the temporary certificate that includes the ephemeral public key, together with a server certificate, is output to the client by the server, which acts as a subordinate Certificate Authority. The client validates the certificates, generates a session key and outputs the session key wrapped by the ephemeral public key. To complete the connection establishment, the server applies the ephemeral private key to recover the session key derived at the client for the new session. The client and server thereafter use the session key to encrypt and decrypt data over the link. The ephemeral key pair is not reused.

Abstract: A control valve assembly includes a body having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. A portion of the body is formed from a first magnetic material. A sleeve is slidingly mounted to the body. At least a portion of the sleeve is formed from a second magnetic material. A magnetic circuit having a gap is defined within the control valve assembly. A solenoid is mounted to the body about at least a portion of the first magnetic material of the body. The solenoid is selectively activated to create a magnetic field across the gap in the magnetic circuit. The magnetic circuit causes the sleeve to slide, narrowing the gap and sliding from the first position to the second position to produce a pressure pulse in the wellbore, wherein the biasing member biases the sleeve back to the first position.

Abstract: A vehicle comprising: a coolant header tank defining a storage volume for storing a fluid coolant and having a minimum fluid level within the storage volume, the coolant header tank comprising a port connected to the portion of the storage volume that contains fluid when filled to the minimum fluid level; and a temperature regulating system configured to carry the fluid coolant, the temperature regulating circuit comprising a branch connected between an air collecting region of the temperature regulating system and the port of the coolant header tank to permit air to flow from the temperature regulating system to the coolant header tank, the temperature regulating system being configured so that the air collecting region is higher than a horizontal plane that is defined by the minimum fluid level.

Abstract: In one example, a circuit for controlling synchronous rectification includes a first current compensation module, a second current compensation module, and a control module. The first current compensation module is configured to provide a first current into parasitic capacitance at a drain pin when a drain of a synchronous rectifier draws current from the parasitic capacitance. The drain pin is coupled to the drain of the synchronous rectifier via a resistor. The first current compensation module is further configured to generate a triggering signal using the first current. The second current compensation module is configured to draw a second current from the parasitic capacitance when the drain of the synchronous rectifier provides current into the parasitic capacitance and generate an arming signal using the second current. The control module is configured to activate the synchronous rectifier using the triggering signal and the arming signal.

Abstract: An exercise device, comprising a substantially-spherical, relatively thin-walled housing having an opening formed therein whereby the hand of the user may be inserted through the opening into the housing, wherein said housing includes a cavity portion capable of receiving and retaining a removable weight.

Abstract: System and methods for audio editing are provided. In one implementation, a computer-implemented method is provided. The computer-implemented method includes presenting a visual representation of digital audio data as a frequency spectrum including a first visual region corresponding to a first time period and a first frequency range in the digital audio data. A first user input identifies a second visual region within the first visual region and corresponding to a second time period and a second frequency range. A second user input specifies one or more frequency modifications to the second visual region. The second time period and the second frequency range corresponding to the second visual region are modified creating a modified second visual region. The modified second visual region is mixed into the first visual region creating edited digital audio data.

Abstract: A box folding apparatus for folding box blanks into completed boxes is capable of increased production rates by utilizing two or more separate servo systems that independently control the various actuating drive mechanisms associated with the advancing and folding of the box blanks along the production line. Certain actuating drive mechanisms to be operating at different speeds in order to reduce the lag time normally associated with prior art solid drive box folding machinery which normally operate at a single speed. Critical actuating motions used in the process of folding and advancing the box blanks can be performed at a different speed than other non-critical actuating motions.
