Abstract: A modular heated surface system which can quickly be assembled from several pieces. The system can be designed to fit sidewalks and driveways of any size and includes durable surfaces for driving vehicles across the platforms. A drain assembly is included to ensure that the water produced from melted ice and snow is properly drained away from the heated surface. The system is powered by plugging the system into a standard 120V outlet.

Abstract: A tool for manipulating a transducer assembly. The tool had a shaft to space the transducer assembly from a handle end. The tool rotatably mounts the transducer assembly so that the transducer assembly can transmissively coupled to and follow an arcuate scanning path. The tool includes a guide member for following an edge of a component to be tested.

Abstract: A calibration block and method for sensitivity calibration. The calibration block has a curved calibration surface having a central axis and a surface for coupling to a transducer element of an angular scanning phased array ultrasonic testing scanner. The block is configured such that the surface positions the transducer such that its scanning axis is coaxial with the central axis of the curved calibration surface.

Abstract: Ultrasonic testing apparatus including a base member having an aperture formed therein and a search member arranged to be rotatably received in the aperture of the base member and having at least one array aperture arranged to receive an ultrasonic array holder.

Abstract: The present invention provides compounds of formula (I): a process for their preparation, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds and the preparation of said compositions, to intermediates and to use of the compounds for the manufacture of a medicament for therapeutic treatment, particularly for the treatment of inflammation, allergy and/or auto-immune conditions.

Abstract: We discovered that a) a single key can support a multiplicity of ordered groups, b) only a subset of each group needs to be visually represented on the face of a key, c) either multi-tap or predictive methods, or both, can be used to input members of each of the groups, and d) auxiliary keys are a convenient, effective and user-discoverable method to select ordered groups, and to perform the multi-tap function. The objects of: limiting multi-tap depth, reducing keystrokes per symbol, unifying focus, increasing discoverability, graduated discoverability, power, compact presentation, and seamless integration of multi-tap and predictive text methods, can all be achieved by exploiting these discoveries.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine simulator comprising a simulator rotor disc which has substantially the same maximum external dimensions as a rotor disc and is manufactured from a material which has a density of less than 220 kg/m3. The simulator rotor disc is manufactured from a foamed plastic material with a closed cell structure. The simulator rotor disc is provided with a cavity in flow communication with a source of simulator coolant fluid, at least one flow outlet, at least one heater unit and at least one thermocouple mounted within said cavity for the measurement of simulator coolant fluid temperature within said cavity.

Abstract: A saw handle for reducing the amount of vibration transmitted to a user during use of a saw. The handle includes a resilient material of lower durometer than the blade mount and is interposed between the blade mount and the user's hand in order to absorb and reduce the vibrations transmitted to the user. In one configuration, the resilient material is interposed between the blade mount and the handle in order to isolate handle from the blade mount. In another configuration, the handgrip is of a resilient material devoid of an internal structure. In yet another configuration, the handgrip is of a resilient material with an internal structure, where the internal structure may have an overlapping or non-overlapping configuration.

Abstract: A compound of formula (I): wherein A represents 2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-7-yl, 5-fluoro-2-methoxy-phenyl or 5-fluoro-2-hydroxy-phenyl; and R1 and R2 each independently represent hydrogen, fluorine or chlorine; or a physiologically functional derivative thereof.

Abstract: A leaf seal arrangement is provided in which within a housing there are edge portions to inter associate with non parallel chamfer edges in leaf seal elements. In such circumstances, deflection of the leaf seal elements in an outward direction or inward direction relative to a rotating shaft creates variation in a control gap X, XX between the edges and the chamfer edge. Such increase or decrease in the control gap X, XX adjusts the aerodynamic radial force that is presented to the leaf seal elements whereby those elements can be more accurately maintained at a desired leaf position for optimizing leakage whilst achieving better wear resistance performance.

Abstract: A touch sensor is disclosed. The sensor includes an electrically resistive layer that covers a touch sensitive area. The sensor further includes an electrically insulative layer that is disposed on the electrically resistive layer. The insulative layer has one or more open areas. Each open area exposes a portion of the resistive layer. The sensor also includes a plurality of electrically conductive segments that are disposed on the insulative layer. Each conductive segment makes electrical contact with the resistive layer through at least one of the open areas in the insulative layer. The conductive segments improve linearity of the touch sensitive area.

Abstract: This invention teaches that a single auxiliary key (1006) can support a multiplicity of ordered groups (1003-1004) and that only a subset of each group (1003-1004) needs to be visually represented on the face of a key, and that either multi-tap or predictive methods, or both, can be used to input members of each groups, and that auxiliary keys (1005-1007) are a convenient and effective method to select ordered groups, and to perform the multi-tap function. This invention teaches: limited multi-tap depth, reduced keystrokes per symbol, discoverability, graduated discoverability, compact presentation and seamless integration of multi-tap and predictive methods.
