  • Publication number: 20110297252
    Abstract: An improved pilot valve assembly (14) for hydraulically controlling a pressure reducing valve (12) to maintain and further vary the outlet pressure (P2) of the pressure reducing valve (12) in response to increased flow (f) through the valve (12). The pilot valve assembly (14) comprising first and second movable valve members (100,102). The first and second moveable members (100,102) being acted on by a velocity head pressure sensed by a downstream Pitot tube (90) and a downstream outlet pressure (P2) in a balanced arrangement such that they move in response to both the velocity head and downstream pressure (P2) to open and close the pilot valve (14) and so main valve (12) to both maintain and vary the outlet pressure (P2).

  • Publication number: 20110070027
    Abstract: A principal catch basin defining a certain storage capacity, the catch basin situated below the level of the ground, having an upper level opening for receiving surface water drainage thereunto, and having side walls partially constructed of permeable geotextile fabric for allowing water flow into the permeable basin to serve as a collection for sub-surface drainage. The system would include the ability to automatically pump the drainage water out using the energy of a pressurized water system in conjunction with a venturi pump without the need of any electrical sensors or signals. In addition, there may be a plurality of collection basins which could be joined together as a system to pump the water from various locations through one transport line.

  • Patent number: 7751785
    Abstract: A system and method for wireless communication. The system can include a transmitter that transmits a data signal having a time period without data transmission. The system can also include a receiver including a first antenna, a second antenna, a switch that activates one of the first antenna and the second antenna, and a processor that estimates a first signal-to-noise ratio for the first antenna and a second signal-to-noise ratio for the second antenna during the time period without data transmission. The processor can control the switch to select one of the first antenna and the second antenna based on a comparison between the first signal-to-noise ratio and the second signal-to-noise ratio.

  • Patent number: 7475308
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for implementing deterministic based broken scan chain diagnostics. A deterministic test pattern is generated and is loaded into each scan chain in the device under test using lateral insertion via system data ports applying system clocks. Then each scan chain is unloaded and a last switching latch is identified. The testing steps are repeated a selected number of times. Then checking for consistent results is performed. When consistent results are identified, then the identified last switching latch is sent to a Physical Failure Analysis system.
