Abstract: An electric connector terminal assembly which allows numerous different terminal connector ends and wire diameters to be connected to a single size and type crimp cylinder using an rolled metal strip insert. Preferably, the metal strip is made of copper, and preferably the copper strip is coated with tin. The metal strip is then formed into a cylinder for insertion to the crimp cylinder. A method for connecting a crimp terminal to an electric wire is also disclosed. The method requires cutting a metal strip to form a plurality of parallel compliant members (e.g., fingers) connected to a base, rolling the cut strip to form a cylindrical insert, positioning the insert within a crimp cylinder of an electric connector with the fingers extending toward the mating end, inserting an electric wire within the cylindrical insert, and crimping the crimp cylinder to secure the electric wire within the cylindrical insert and crimp cylinder.

Abstract: An apparatus for adapting a single-track vehicle for use on a chairlift is provided. A first adapter portion may be configured to be removably coupled to at least a portion of a single-track vehicle. A second adapter portion may be pivotably coupled to the first adapter portion. A space formed between the first adapter portion and the second adapter portion may be configured to receive at least a portion of a chairlift seat of a chairlift.

Abstract: A method is provided of controlling a gas turbine having a shaft connecting a compressor to a turbine, as well as having a reheat system, and a gas turbine. The method includes the steps of: operating the engine using the reheat system to provide a mass flow rate of reheat fuel into a gas flow of the gas turbine engine downstream of an exit of the turbine; detecting a shaft break event in the shaft; and in response to this detection, maintaining the mass flow rate of the reheat fuel being provided into the gas flow downstream of the turbine exit, whereby the maintained mass flow rate of reheat fuel raises a back pressure downstream of the turbine and thereby reduces a rotational speed of the turbine.

Abstract: For multipathing using a network of overlays, a set of virtual network interfaces (VNICs) corresponding to a physical network interface (PNIC) is created in a first data processing system. A first virtual network interface (VNIC) from the set of VNICs is bound to a virtual machine (VM) executing in a first data processing environment across a data network from the first data processing system. During a data communication with a second data processing system, data is divided into a first portion and a second portion, the first portion using a first path from the first VNIC to the first VM to the second data processing system, and the second portion using a second path from the PNIC to the second data processing system.

Abstract: An LED headlamp for attachment directly or indirectly to a user. Generally speaking, the disclosed headlamp includes an adjustable strap for securing to a user (e.g., head, arm, jacket, backpack, etc.), an LED array detachably securable to the adjustable strap, and a battery pack coupled to the LED array via an input power port. Preferably, the battery pack is rechargeable and is hardwired to the LED array. Optionally, the array may include a connection port that can accept any of several different power sources for powering the LED array of the headlamp, including a DC battery pack (e.g., AAA, AA batteries), a portable charger, an AC connection, to a wall outlet, and a computer USB charging connection. Further, the LED array may include a range of from 4 to 30 LEDs; more preferably, the number of LEDs is in the range of from 8 to 20. The LEDs should be spaced to provide a broadband of illumination, as opposed to a focused beam.

Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus and method of communicating between a mobile device and a host computing device. One example method of operation may include sensing a wireless communication signal at the host computing device, establishing a wireless connection between the mobile device and the host computing device via the wireless communication signal, and migrating at least one application from the mobile device to the host computing device. The ongoing communication between the mobile device and the host computing device enables applications to be executed on one device and accessed via the other device, providing a user with the capability to operate more than one device at a time.

Abstract: A system for extending application programming interfaces provided by web service providers to interface with web services includes an application programming interface extender; a plurality of application programming interface extensions; and a catalog of the application programming interface extensions. The catalog logically links the application programming interface extensions with the application programming interfaces and provides an interface to first developers who upload the application programming interface extensions to the platform and second developers who develop applications which access the web services via the application programming interface extensions. The application programming interface extender receives requests to access given ones of the application programming interface extensions and routes at least some of the requests to the application programming interface extensions.

Abstract: Web API recommendations for a context of an application are provided. A ranked list of recommended Web APIs and a set of Web API recommendations regarding the context of the application is sent to a client device via a network. In response to determining that a selection of a set of Web APIs in the ranked list of recommended Web APIs was received, the set of Web APIs selected is added to the context of the application to generate a new context of the application. A display of a relationship among the set of Web APIs added to the new context of the application is sent to the client device via the network.
