Patent number: 8397774Abstract: An axle assembly includes a non-rotating component and a wheel hub supported for rotation relative to the non-rotating component about an axis. The wheel hub includes a hub air passage that has a hub inlet and a hub outlet to be fluidly connected to at least one tire. An air chamber is formed at least in part between the non-rotating component and the wheel hub. The air chamber receives air flow from an air source and directs air flow into the hub inlet. A seal assembly engages the wheel hub to seal the air chamber.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2011Date of Patent: March 19, 2013Assignee: ArvinMeritor Technology, LLCInventors: David Gregory Gonska, Tracy Gerard Ellis, Yenkai Brian Wang, Steven Ray Miller, Jeremy Tertzakian, Scott Arthur Jenkinson, John David Morgan, Norman Austin, Christopher J.

Publication number: 20120201428Abstract: Systems and methods which implement an image reconstruction framework to incorporate complex motion of structure, such as complex deformation of an object or objects being imaged, in image reconstruction techniques are shown. For example, techniques are provided for tracking organ motion which uses raw time-stamped data provided by any of a number of imaging modalities and simultaneously reconstructs images and estimates deformations in anatomy. Operation according to embodiments reduces artifacts, increase the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and facilitates reduced image modality energy dosing to patients. The technology also facilitates the incorporation of physical properties of organ motion, such as the conservation of local tissue volume. This approach is accurate and robust against noise and irregular breathing for tracking organ motion.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2010Publication date: August 9, 2012Applicant: University of Utah Research FoundationInventors: Sarang Joshi, Jacob Hinkle, Bill Salter, Tom Fletcher, Brian Wang

Publication number: 20100214873Abstract: The invention is directed to a system and method for automatic discovery of the physical location of at least one device in a data center, the device having an associated ultrasonic emitter. The system generally includes a plurality of ultrasonic detectors having known locations in the data center. A controller initiates the generation of an ultrasonic signal from an ultrasonic emitter associated with a device under test. Time of arrival circuitry generates time of arrival information associated with each ultrasonic detector based on the time of receipt of the ultrasonic signal. The controller determines the location of the device under test based on the known location of the ultrasonic detectors within the data center and the time of arrival information associated with each ultrasonic detector.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2009Publication date: August 26, 2010Inventors: Siva Somasundaram, Naim R.

Publication number: 20100138833Abstract: User interfaces called by a target application can be quickly and efficiently identified and stored for future resource coverage analysis. User interfaces of the target application that are accessed by users executing the target application on their computing device can be automatically tracked during execution of the target application. Information gathered on user interfaces of a target application and accessed user interfaces of the target application can be employed to generate one or more reports. Generated reports on user interface usage can be used to, e.g., identify the application resources to localize, prioritize the application resources to localize, discern application resource trends for, e.g., maintenance and upgrade activities, detect unused application resources, and select appropriate application resources for test scenarios.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2008Publication date: June 3, 2010Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Timothy C.

Patent number: 7450687Abstract: An accurate method for inversely verifying a therapeutic radiation dose delivered to a patient via an x-ray delivery system without involving any computational iteration was developed. The usage of it includes detecting the transmitted radiation dose image after passage through the patient, imaging the patient during treatment to anatomically record information of the patient, followed by inversely verifying through use of both the detected radiation image and the imaging data, the actual radiation dose delivered to the patient, and comparing the level of the dose delivered to a previously planned dose to determine whether the planned dose was delivered, or whether an overdose or underdose occurred.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2006Date of Patent: November 11, 2008Assignee: University of Medicine and Dentistry of New JerseyInventors: Inhwan Yeo, Brian Wang

Publication number: 20080126661Abstract: An apparatus for interfacing communication and computing devices to a vehicle's entertainment system, data system, and/or vehicle's diagnostics system to minimize driver distraction and to integrate the latest computing technologies for entertainment, information, and applications to the vehicle. Such an interface may be provided by hardware, firmware or software provided in the vehicle, computing and communication devices or both. The interface not only provides a link but also translates the data, commands and responses of one to data, commands and responses understandable by the other.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 13, 2006Publication date: May 29, 2008Inventors: Rocky Lin, Brian Wang

Patent number: 7255326Abstract: A single-and-continual shot changeover device for a nailing gun includes a trigger shaft positioned in an interior of a trigger body, a trigger inner member pivotally connected with an intermediate fitting stage of the trigger shaft, which also has two slide shaft stages at two sides of the fitting stage for two springs and two press buttons to fitting around respectively. The two press buttons are elastically pushed to shift outward to engage one of two—an upper and a lower—grooves of the two sidewalls of the trigger body. When the two press buttons are pressed inward, the trigger inner member can be shifted up and down to let the press buttons secured at either of the two limit grooves by means of the trigger shaft. Then the trigger inner member is controlled to separate or not from the safety connect rod for changing firing a single shot or continual shot.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2004Date of Patent: August 14, 2007Assignee: Bentley Fastening Tools Co., Ltd.Inventor: Brian Wang

Patent number: 7000817Abstract: A nailing gun applicable to oblique rowed nails of different specifications includes a nail box having its upper rear side pivotally combined with the head end of a muzzle to form a pivot and its intermediate portion combined with the arc-shaped guiding slot of the combining member of a handle. Thus, the nail box can be adjusted and positioned at a proper angle for loading oblique rowed nails of different specifications. The nail box has a U-shaped nail-guiding plate fitted in a nail head groove and having its upper end formed with an extending section extending upward and reaching the rear end wall of the muzzle. The extending section of the nail-guiding plate is able to guide oblique rowed nails to smoothly move in the interior of the muzzle whenever the nail box is adjusted at a slant angle for loading oblique rowed nails of different specifications.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2004Date of Patent: February 21, 2006Assignee: Bently Fastening Tools Co., Ltd.Inventor: Brian Wang
