Abstract: An engine including a fuel tank, a carburetor, a speed control lever, and a transport valve. The carburetor includes a throttle valve movable between a first throttle position and a second throttle position. The speed control lever is coupled to the throttle valve and is movable between a first position corresponding to the first throttle position and a second position corresponding to the second throttle position. The transport valve is fluidly coupled between the fuel tank and the carburetor, and includes a valve element moveable between an open valve position allowing fuel flow between the fuel tank and the carburetor, and a closed valve position preventing fuel flow between the fuel tank and the carburetor. Movement of the speed control lever to the second position moves the valve element to the closed valve position to stop fluid flow between the fuel tank and the carburetor.

Abstract: A flying punch and cutoff machine that performs an operation on a moving item that moves at a line speed includes a support assembly; a carriage assembly movably supported by the support assembly; a tooling assembly supported by the carriage assembly, the tooling assembly including a tool to perform an operation on the moving item; a roller rack and pinion mechanism supported by the support assembly and configured to impart motion to the carriage assembly; and a controller configured to control the roller rack and pinion mechanism so that a line speed of the carriage assembly and tool matches the line speed of the moving item so that the operation is performed on the moving item with that no relative motion occurring between the moving item and the tool.

Abstract: A method and an installation (10) for removing slag allows both slag removal and metal recovery from slag (60?) to be performed quickly and easily. The risk of slag fires is reduced.

Abstract: A system implements code trampolining techniques by generating custom trampoline functions, compiling the functions, and executing the compiled functions directly from a library when the corresponding native function is called. The native functions may be binary functions, such as functions in C++ code, or other languages. A code generator may read a set of functions to be implemented and generate code, such as binary code, for the destination function. In doing so, the code generator may generate code which matches the source function signature. The generated code may then be compiled into a shared library which is loaded by the process being instrumented. When the library is initiated upon subsequent calls for the native function, the trampoline mechanisms will be set up between the source function and the generated destination function to operate seamlessly with matching signatures.

Abstract: An engine including a fuel tank, a carburetor, a speed control lever, and a transport valve. The carburetor includes a throttle valve movable between a first throttle position and a second throttle position. The speed control lever is coupled to the throttle valve and is movable between a first position corresponding to the first throttle position and a second position corresponding to the second throttle position. The transport valve is fluidly coupled between the fuel tank and the carburetor, and includes a valve element moveable between an open valve position allowing fuel flow between the fuel tank and the carburetor, and a closed valve position preventing fuel flow between the fuel tank and the carburetor. Movement of the speed control lever to the second position moves the valve element to the closed valve position to stop fluid flow between the fuel tank and the carburetor.

Abstract: In an embodiment, for any structural change that is made to a relational database, a corresponding change is also made to the multidimensional database. In an embodiment, the system determines that a particular structure is not implemented on the multidimensional database system. Based on metadata that defines the structure that is supposed to exist in the multidimensional database, the appropriate structure is created.
