  • Publication number: 20240020435
    Abstract: Disclosed are a method of processing digitalized drawing and a compute program. One aspect of the present invention provides a method of processing digitalized drawing data by a computer, the method including: providing digitalized drawing having a line ID (S10); splitting the line ID into a plurality of topologies, which are smallest units that are mutually exclusive and do not overlap each other (S20); generating a pipe system network (PSN) by recombining the plurality of topologies, wherein the plurality of topologies are recombined such that a start point and an end point of the PSN are each independently Equipment, Branch or Header (S30); and generating a path item (PI) by arranging internal objects on the digitalized drawing existing between the start point and the end point of the pipe system network (PSN) and adding necessary information usable in a subsequent process (S40).

  • Patent number: 7976938
    Abstract: Disclosed is a decorative panel having a composite structure bonded by an elastomeric cementitious coating. The cementitious coating bonds together a foam core and glass fiber mesh to form a highly durable and lightweight decorative panel. The panel can further include a finish coat of a substantially maintenance free pigmented coating. The panel may be attachment to the exterior surface of barriers and bridges. The lightweight construction of the panel adds little weight to the structure it adorns while matching or exceeding the wear characteristics of the attached structure.

  • Patent number: 6374939
    Abstract: An engine mount assembly includes a vehicle frame bracket supporting an engine mounted bracket through an isolator. The frame includes three triangularly positioned tubes extending through a frame rail and defining openings for bolts that secure the frame bracket to the frame. Two longitudinally spaced upper tubes engage V recesses formed by a lip on the frame bracket that guides the bracket into longitudinal alignment with the frame openings during assembly. An inclined ramp on the face of the frame bracket helps position the engine laterally during assembly. Optional flanges on the upper tubes engage slots in the V recesses to prevent lateral movement of the assembly prior to installation of the mounting bolts through the frame tubes. A laterally elongated opening in an isolator support on the frame bracket allows final adjustment of the engine lateral position, if needed.
