  • Patent number: 8245226
    Abstract: Migration of data relevant to, or associated with, one or more users from a prior operating system installation to a new operating system installation can be performed with reference to an archive of some or all of the data on a storage media made prior to the installation of a new operating system. Manifests associated with operating system components can be referenced to identify data to be transferred from those operating system components to new versions of those components. Independently generated manifests can also be referenced to migrate the files and data for one or more application programs, such as popular or commonly found application programs. User data and files to be migrated can be identified by loading registration database files from the offline operating system in the new operating system, or otherwise parsing a similar construct from the offline operating system.

  • Patent number: 7950309
    Abstract: A torque intensifying tool for tightening and loosening threaded connectors has at least one torque intensifier unit with a torque intensifier housing portion, an input and a first output and a second output, a drive connected with the input unit for transmitting a torque from the drive through the intensifying unit to a threaded connector, so that in one mode of operation the housing portion together with the first and the second outputs turn in the same direction, and in another mode of operation the housing portion together with one of the first and second outputs receives a turning force in one direction while the other one of the first and second outputs receives an equal turning force in the opposite direction, and so that one of the first and second output means turns in the one mode and in the another mode while the other of the first and second output means turns in the one mode and reacts in the another mode.

  • Publication number: 20070251359
    Abstract: A torque intensifying tool for tightening and loosening threaded connectors has at least one torque intensifier means having a torque intensifier housing portion, having input means and having a first output means and a second output means, a drive operatively connected with the input means for transmitting a torque from the drive through the intensifying means to a threaded connector, so that in one mode of operation the torque intensifier housing portion together with the first and the second output means turn in the same direction and the same speed and torque as the input means, and in another mode of operation the torque intensifier housing portion together with one of the first and second output means receives a turning force in one direction while the other one of the first and second output means receives an equal turning force in the opposite direction at a lower speed but higher torque than the input means, and so that one of the first and second output means turns in the one mode and in the another
