Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to a system and method which utilizes the benefits of both advertising and bidirectional connections to allow a client/receiving device to receive data, e.g. sensor measurements, from the source/transmitting device during device discovery and connection, thereby minimizing the amount of time during which data, e.g. measurements, are unavailable. The disclosed embodiments may further allow for reduced power consumption by a source device by minimizing data transmission during advertising.

Abstract: A system of detecting loading and unloading of mobile containers such as grain carts utilizes two low pass filters to determine whether the contents of the container are changing by subtracting one filter signal from the other, and using the sign of the difference. Weighing performance is improved by utilizing accelerometers to compensate for measurement dynamics and non-level orientation. Failure and degradation of weight sensors is detected by testing sensor half bridges. Loading and unloading weights can be tied to specific vehicles by utilizing RF beacons.

Abstract: Microbial oil and fat cleaning agent composition block for drainpipes and a method of producing the same. Specifically, such a composition block accommodated in a drain cap for the inlet of a drainpipe so that oils and fats adhered to the drainpipe are biodegraded by powdery microorganisms present in the composition block to maintain smooth flow of sewage, prevent oil and fats from adhering onto the drainpipe from the cleaning agent, thus cleaning the inside of the drainpipe and removing odors. The dissolved cleaning agent is discharged with sewage through the drainpipe and is collected in a water collector, and oils and fats adhered to the water collector are biodegraded by the cleaning agent to remove odor inside the water collector, prevent adhesion of oils and fats to the water collector and thus maintain excellent water quality.

Abstract: A coiled tube injection drive assembly having a pair of opposed, upwardly extending movable carriages positioned in opposed fashion so that portions of tubing may be vertically disposed and engaged between the movable carriages, each of the movable carriages comprising a respective gripper chain and associated bearing chain assembly, where the bearing chain is mounted on sprockets that are coaxially disposed between spaced apart gripper chain sprocket wheels so that the bearing sprockets are mounted about the same shafts as the gripper chain sprockets, without being directly mounted to rotate with those shafts. Other assembly features and related methods are also described.

Abstract: A method of providing enterprise applications with shared access to a data warehouse. A web service request is issued over a data network from a first client enterprise application to a second server enterprise application. A database query is then constructed at the second server enterprise application. It is then determined whether a response to the web service request will include the results of posing the database query against the data warehouse, or the SQL syntax necessary to pose the query. If the response is to include the results of posing then the second server enterprise application poses the query against the data warehouse and issues the results to the first client enterprise application. If the response to the request is to include the SQL syntax necessary to pose the query, then the second server enterprise application provides the database query syntax to the first client enterprise application.

Abstract: A magnetron actuator for moving a magnetron in a nearly arbitrary radial and azimuthal path in the back of a target in a plasma sputter reactor. The magnetron includes two coaxial rotary shafts extending along the chamber central axis and coupled to two independently controllable rotary actuators. An epicyclic gear mechanism or a frog-leg structure mechanically couple the shafts to the magnetron to control its radial and azimuthal position. A vertical actuator moves the shafts vertically in tandem to vary the magnetron's separation from the target's back surface and compensate for erosion of the front surface. The rotary actuators may be separately coupled to the shafts or a rotatable ring gear may be coupled to the shafts through respectively fixed and orbiting idler gears. Two radially spaced sensors detect reflectors attached to the inner and outer arms of the epicyclic gear mechanism for homing of the controller.

Abstract: A transportable multi-configurable self-ballasted modular solar power unit has a support frame and a solar module frame hingedly connected to it. A plurality of solar modules are mounted on the solar module frame and a selected angle is chosen to increase the efficiency of the solar modules. Support arms are used to keep the solar module frame at the selected angle. Four trailer jacks are attached to the perimeter of the support frame and are used to raise and lower the unit. The unit is raised and set on a trailer or a wheel assembly is attached. The unit can then be transported to the selected installation site. Once at the site, the trailer jacks are raised until the trailer can be rolled out from under it. The trailer jacks can be adjusted individually if the surface is not level.
