Publication number: 20050119821Abstract: An engine protection system and protocol is implemented within an electronic control module. Various engine parameters, such as engine coolant level, coolant temperature, transmission fluid temperature, and engine oil pressure are monitored and compared to limit values to determine if a fault condition exists as to one or more of the parameters. The engine protection system includes visual and audible signals responsive to the parameters. An engine disabling mechanism is operative when any of the aforementioned parameters exceed predetermined limits for a predeterminable period. The electronic control module contains a memory function for recording the fault parameters as well as other identifying information. The electronic control module also includes an engine idle limiter feature. The engine disabling means is operative when the vehicle idling duration exceeds a second predeterminable period.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 2, 2004Publication date: June 2, 2005Inventors: Don Malone, Renald Baron, George Daniels

Patent number: 6685637Abstract: An ultrasonic diagnostic imaging system is described which enables the system operator to change the language of the graphical user interface without the need to restart the system. The software build for text, dialog boxes, symbols, icons, and other language-specific information contains this display information in multiple languages. By accessing a setup menu or other selection screen the user can change to one of the other languages stored on the system, preferably including all language-specific features. In the describe embodiments this change many be implemented without the need to reboot the system.

Patent number: 6180054Abstract: A ceramic hot-gas candle filter having a porous support of filament-wound oxide ceramic yarn at least partially surrounded by a porous refractory oxide ceramic matrix, and a membrane layer on at least one surface thereof. The membrane layer may be on the outer surface, the inner surface, or both the outer and inner surface of the porous support. The membrane layer may be formed of an ordered arrangement of circularly wound, continuous filament oxide ceramic yarn, a ceramic filler material which is less permeable than the filament-wound support structure, or some combination of continuous filament and filler material. A particularly effective membrane layer features circularly wound filament with gaps intentionally placed between adjacent windings, and a filler material of ceramic particulates uniformly distributed throughout the gap region. The filter can withstand thermal cycling during backpulse cleaning and is resistant to chemical degradation at high temperatures.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 1999Date of Patent: January 30, 2001Assignee: AlliedSignal Composites Inc.Inventors: Elizabeth Sokolinski Connolly, George Daniel Forsythe, Daniel Matthew Domanski, Jeffrey Allen Chambers, Govindasamy Paramasivam Rajendran

Patent number: 5518932Abstract: The process of preparing higher aluminum alkyls by olefin chain growth on alkyl aluminum is improved by using on-line flow-through calorimetry to determine the aluminum concentration of a process stream, such as the aluminum alkyl feed stream, by reacting a sample portion of the process stream with a molar excess of alcohol and measuring the change in temperature. The aluminum concentration of the stream can then be adjusted as required to maintain it within a selected range.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 1993Date of Patent: May 21, 1996Assignee: Albemarle CorporationInventors: Robert P.

Patent number: 5481114Abstract: The simultaneous selective detection of neutrons and X or gamma photons is disclosed, employing two scintillators. One scintillator uses a first doped scintillation detector that is sensitive to neutrons, while the second doped scintillation device is sensitive to X or gamma photons whereby the scintillations occurring at the two devices are in distinct and separate energy bands.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 1994Date of Patent: January 2, 1996Assignee: Commissariat a l'Energie AtomiqueInventors: Georges Daniel, Edouard Marienbach, Jean-Louis Szabo

Patent number: 5393981Abstract: An apparatus for the simultaneous, selective detection of neutrons and X or gamma photons including a photomultiplier, a first scintillator sensitive to the neutrons and a second scintillator sensitive to the x or gamma photons. The apparatus also includes an attenuating light guide (situated between the first and second scintillators) for guiding the photons produced by the first scintillator to the photomultiplier and for attenuating the radiation associated with these photons. The attenuating light guide facilitates the separation of the energy bands associated with each of the first scintillator, the second scintillator and the background noise of the photomultiplier. By separating energy bands, detection of each radiation element is less complex. The apparatus also includes a neutron filter (situated between the attenuating light guide and the second scintillator) which functions to reduce the occurrence of neutrons interacting with the second scintillator, thus facilitating energy band separation.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 1994Date of Patent: February 28, 1995Assignee: Commissariat a l'Energie AtomiqueInventors: Jean-Louis Szabo, Georges Daniel

Patent number: 5030436Abstract: Contaminants in spent nitric-sulfuric nitration acid can be removed by mixing the spent acid with urea and heating to 75.degree.-150.degree. C. Off-gas from the spent acid/urea reaction is passed through a Group IB, VB, VIB or VIII metal containing catalyst to decompose nitrous oxides and the so-treated off-gas is contacted with spent acid, denitrated spent acid, or fresh sulfuric acid, and optionally air (i.e. oxygen), to absorb oxides of nitrogen. The spent acid scrubbing fluid is then subjected to the same process for removing contaminants.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 1989Date of Patent: July 9, 1991Assignee: Ethyl CorporationInventors: J. Francis Steadman, Dennis J. Malfer, George A. Daniels, J. Keitt Hane, R. Woodrow Wilson, Jr.

Patent number: 4981102Abstract: A reactor having a heated liner for producing silicon by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and means for supplying a gas stream in the turbulent flow region. A gas stream including a silicon-containing compound is passed through a deposition chamber at turbulent flow rates for deposition of silicon on a non-reactive substrate liner heated above the decomposition temperature of the silicon-containing compound. Optionally, the liner is removable from the reactor for separation of deposited metal. Also optionally, the temperature of the liner in situ may be raised above the melting point of the deposited metal for melt out and recovery.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 1986Date of Patent: January 1, 1991Assignee: Ethyl CorporationInventors: Marcelian F. Gautreaux, Walter W. Lawrence, Jr., George A. Daniels, Gordon A. Hughmark

Patent number: 4085501Abstract: Method and apparatus are disclosed for making integrated optical circuits. A waveguide in the form of a thin layer of dielectric material is modified as to its coherent radiation transmitting properties by electron beam impingement thereon so as to modulate coherent radiation by mode conversion and mode guiding. Preferably the layer is of thermoplastic material which is locally charged by the electron beam and is heated to allow corresponding deformation due to the forces generated by the localized charging. When cooled, the deformations are frozen in but may be erased by subsequent reheating whereafter the deformation process may be repeated, thus allowing reuse of the device for a different optical circuit, or allowing its modification to form a different optical circuit.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 1975Date of Patent: April 25, 1978Assignee: Environmental Research Institute of MichiganInventor: George Daniel Currie

Patent number: T966001Abstract: a method for traversing a plurality of strands between two spaced rows of strand-restraining elements moving together in the same direction in substantially the same plane to form a web is implemented by a plurality of strand transfer members moving in a single closed path spanning the rows of strand-restraining elements so that the members pass between strand-restraining elements on one of the rows and above them on the other row. There is a means provided for moving each strand back and forth across the path into engagement with the strand transfer members and a means for disengaging each strand from each strand transfer member beyond the other row and depositing it as a loop around at least one of the strand-restraining elements.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 1977Date of Patent: January 3, 1978Assignee: E.
