  • Publication number: 20160153298
    Abstract: A method for assembly of a first turbomachine part with at least one second turbomachine part, including an injection of a vulcanisable elastomer, preferably a silicone that can be vulcanised at ambient temperature called an RTV silicone, in an injection zone at the junction between the first and the second parts; local heating of the injection zone so as to vulcanise the vulcanisable elastomer.

  • Patent number: 9341539
    Abstract: A cargo container system is provided having selectively deployable and retractable support and/or wheel assemblies. The wheel assemblies are capable of being retracted upwardly while the landing assembly is capable of being deployed downwardly and/or retracted upwardly, e.g., during storage or shipment of the cargo container system (e.g., during sea travel or rail travel). At an appropriate time (e.g., the cargo container system is about to placed onto the ground or other surface by a crane or other suitable device), the wheel assemblies are then selectively deployed downwardly while the landing gear assembly is capable of being retracted upwardly and/or deployed downwardly, e.g., to provide a fully functional cargo container system/trailer/chassis combination that may be immediately capable of being engaged to a truck/tractor/chassis and driven away.

  • Patent number: 9244244
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a fiber optic cable includes steps of extruding a first jacketing material around strength members, over armor, and to form a cavity between the strength members and beneath the armor. The cavity is configured to support an optical fiber. The method further includes a step of co-extruding a second jacketing material with the first jacketing material to form a discontinuity of material, where the discontinuity is interior to the exterior surface of the fiber optic cable.

  • Publication number: 20150249624
    Abstract: A computer implemented messaging process that expands reply capabilities and employs functions for propagating and referencing content data in a messaging network is described. The invention expands comment replies to a special tier of nesting that renders replies to replies as subordinate initial content, which can extend from any nested replies in the network. Furthermore, the process includes functions for transforming special tier content into stand-alone content and special tier content-referencing that allows special tier content to be attached onto any and all existing content in the network.

  • Patent number: 8991846
    Abstract: The present invention reduces or eliminates suspension induced lower portion chain grow for rear derailer equipped bicycle drive trains using a pivoting mount for the common chain guide pulley. Attached about or near concentric with the chain ring and bottom bracket this mounting plate has a pivotally connected link to the suspension. The chain guide pulley is positioned to “take-up” or store some lower portion of chain length around the chain ring. Suspension activation creates pivotal movement of the guide mounting plate to relieve suspension induced chain grow by releasing some or the entire taken-up length of the lower portion of the drive chain.

  • Patent number: 8983254
    Abstract: Fiber optic assemblies include subunit cables wrapped in binders. The assemblies have small cross sections and low bend radii while maintaining acceptable attenuation losses. Stranding of the subunit cables allows ease of access to the individual cables during installation.

  • Publication number: 20140369657
    Abstract: An optical fiber assembly including an optical fiber ribbon and an optical connector is provided. The optical fiber ribbon includes a ribbon matrix, a first group of optical fibers embedded in the ribbon matrix, a second group of optical fibers embedded in the ribbon matrix, and a split in the ribbon matrix at a first end of the ribbon forming a space between a first end of the first group of optical fibers and a first end of the second group of optical fibers. The optical connector includes a body, a first array of openings defined in the body, and a second array of openings defined in the body. The second array is spaced from the first array. The bond between the ribbon matrix and the optical fibers prevents elongation of the split.

  • Patent number: 8867919
    Abstract: A multi-port accumulator apparatus for a radio-over-fiber (RoF) wireless picocellular system comprising a housing supporting a tail cable port and transponder ports. The tail cable port is optically coupled to the RoF transponder ports to provide for transmission of uplink and downlink optical signals between the tail cable port and each of the transponder ports. The tail cable port is also electrically coupled to provide power to each transponder port. The multi-port accumulator supports RoF transponders, one at each of the transponder ports. Each RoF transponder includes a directional antenna system forming a picocellular coverage sub-area, with the combined sub-areas constituting a picocellular coverage area for the multi-port accumulator. The multi-port accumulator permits quick installation and deployment of large numbers of RoF transponders without individually connecting each RoF transponder to downlink and uplink optical fibers in an optical fiber RF communication link.
