  • Patent number: 8930754
    Abstract: A distributed architecture and method for maintaining the integrity of data streams within a multi-pipelined processing environment. The architecture comprising a communications network for carrying a plurality of data streams and a master processor adapted to process one or more messages in at least one of the data streams, the message processing including the creation of one or more data packets within the stream, each packet encapsulating at least a transaction summary of the data that has been processed. The architecture further comprising at least one slave processor per master processor adapted to emulate the transactional state of the master processor by regenerating the data stream as a result of processing the one or more data packets, whereupon in response to an error event on the master processor, the slave processor acts to avoid interrupting the data stream by generating one or more successive data packet(s).

  • Patent number: 8701525
    Abstract: A nut driver bit is designed to install nuts onto threaded shafts, such as all-thread rods and bolts. The nut driver bit may be driven by a power drill which causes a driver end of the nut driver bit to rotate. The driver end may contact a nut, thereby causing the nut to rotate. The driver end may be covered in with a contact grip for gripping the nut during use. A worker may install and spin a nut on a threaded shaft without requiring their fingers to manually rotate the nut. The nut driver bit may drastically reduce the time required to install nuts onto threaded rods.
