  • Publication number: 20100307894
    Abstract: A universal serial bus (USB) interface is used to connect to a USB device. When the driving pole of the USB interface is pressed, the conductive washer of the USB interface is driven to move away from the first terminal and the second terminal of the positive differential signal pin of the USB interface, an electrical connection between the first and second terminals of the positive differential signal pin is cut. When the driving pole is loosed, the conductive washer returns back, to contact the first terminal and the second terminal of the positive differential signal pin, the first and second terminals of the positive differential signal pin are thus electrically connected.

  • Patent number: 7845236
    Abstract: A fluid dynamic polymer-based contact sensor measures ambient pressure based on the resistivity changes across the sensor under different ambient pressures. The pressure sensor may applied to airfoil structures such as wind turbine blades without impacting the blade structure and fluid dynamic characteristics. The sensor may also be applied to fluid measurements. The pressure measurements are used to measure blade performance with high fidelity. The pressure measurements are transmitted to processing to determine blade characteristics and environment including flow separation, stagnation point, angle of attack, lift and drag and wind speed. Further processing of the pressure distribution may identify wind shear, up-flow and yaw error.

  • Patent number: 7849112
    Abstract: To avoid the need for storing a tree quota identifier attribute for every file in a quota tree, a tree quota identifier is included in the file handle returned by the file server to a client in response to a directory lookup request. The file server discovers that the file is in a quota tree when searching along a path specified by the file pathname and finding a directory having a tree quota identifier. The file server responds to a client request for changing the storage resources used by the file by inspecting the file handle and upon finding the tree quota identifier in the file handle, using the tree quota identifier to index a tree quota database to find usage and limits for the tree quota. The file server checks the limits against any increase in the storage resources for the file, and updates the usage.
