  • MAGNETIC RESISTANCE TRAINER POWER MEASUREMENT
    Publication number: 20110195818
    Abstract: A magnetic resistance trainer includes an electrically conductive disk configured to rotate in response to power provided by a user of the trainer. The trainer further includes a magnet creating a magnetic field. The magnet is configured to be positioned proximate the disk such that the magnetic field induces eddy currents in the disk when the disk is rotating. Also, the trainer includes a sensor system configured to detect the change in the magnetic field caused by the eddy currents induced within the disk. The trainer additionally includes a processor configured to receive input from the sensor system reflecting the detected change in the magnetic field. The processor determines the power provided by a user of the trainer based on the input from the sensor system.

  • Frost protection system for condensate drain pipe
    Publication number: 20110192180
    Abstract: A frost protection system is described for a condensate drain pipe for a boiler, air-conditioning unit etc to protect an outdoors run of the pipe. The system comprises an outdoors temperature sensor, a heater, and a controller for activating the heater in dependence upon the temperature sensed by the sensor. The heater is in the form of a flexible line (for example an electrical cable with a resistive filament). The heater (or a connection for it) passes through a fitting in the pipe indoors, and the heater extends along the inside of the outdoors run of the pipe. In cold weather, the controller activates the heater to produce heat inside the drain pipe and thus reduce the risk of the condensate freezing.

  • Amino phosphine
    Patent number: 7994363
    Abstract: A new P-N-P ligand in which each phosphorus atom is bonded to two ortho-fluorine substituted phenyl groups is useful in ethylene oligomerizations. In combination with i) a source of chromium and ii) an activator such as methalumoxane; the ligand of this invention may be used to prepare an oligomer product that contains a mixture of hexenes and octenes. The hexenes and octenes produced with this ligand contain very low levels of internal olefins when produced under preferred reaction conditions.

  • Hydrocarbon based sulfur solvent systems and methods
    Patent number: 7988767
    Abstract: Contemplated configurations and methods for elemental sulfur removal from various gases, and especially well acid gases employ a hydrocarbon solvent that dissolves the sulfur to form a rich solvent and that is then regenerated by hydrotreating. Thus, sulfur is removed from the rich solvent as H2S that may then be processed (e.g., in Claus unit or absorption unit) while the regenerated solvent is routed back to the well and associated production pipes.
