Abstract: The present invention relates to a pneumatic tire having a rubber component comprised of (a) 100 parts by weight of at least one elastomer containing olefinic unsaturation; (b) 10 to 120 phr of carbon black; (c) 10 to 120 phr of silica; and (d) 0.1 to 10 phr of N,N?-(m-phenylene) bismaleamic acid.

Abstract: A method and system for generating a management solution for a client having an organization. The method comprises the steps of providing a pre-defined solution of documentation, executable code, and installation aids, having pre-determined processes, roles and skills, and tool function; assessing the impact of implementing said solution within said organization of said client; building a training plan of needed training in response to said impact; and defining a client data processing infrastructure needed to implement said pre-defined solution at said client.

Abstract: Evaporative cooling apparatus monitors light and heavy temperature averages to minimize cycling of the apparatus on-and-off when the apparatus is being turned on in the morning when the ambient temperature is rising and is being turned off in the afternoon when the ambient temperature is falling. The apparatus is suspended above the ground and includes a hollow housing with a top portion and a bottom portion, a fan mounted in the top portion of the housing to direct air flow through the housing downwardly toward the ground, and nozzles mounted inside the housing to direct water droplets into air flowing from the fan through the housing. The apparatus also includes a hollow, tapered member which captures a portion of the air flow from the fan and directs the airflow into a central area of the housing to insure that air flowing through the central area moves downwardly toward the ground.

Abstract: An internally threaded (23) collet nut (22) is placed onto the first cable (12) and a first cable (12) is inserted into a collapsible collet (20) on a connector body (18). The collet nut (22) and a breakaway nut (30) are engaged with simple wrenches to establish a reactive torque between the collet nut (22) and the breakaway nut (34) to break away the breakaway nut (34) from the connector body. An enlarged end (16) of the second cable (14) is placed into the interior of a retainer nut (30), which is threaded onto the threaded section (19) of the connector body (18) to abut the collet nut (22), thereby connecting the two cables (12 and 14).

Abstract: Disclosed is an improved double acting piston actuator proportionally controlled by a pulse duration modulated control valve having a gas metering orifice in the actuator gas supply line to decrease gas consumption. The orifice reduces gas pressure applied to the actuator in proportion to the rate of gas use. The actuator has maximum gas consumption at mid range where actual load is a minimum and minimum consumption at actuator extremes where the load is maximum. The orifice thus supplies maximum pressure only when needed and reduces pressure and consumption under no load conditions.

Abstract: A double lens headband supported sports goggle system having a fixed main lens and an outer auxiliary lens, the latter being pivotally harnessed to the headband for selective use in conjunction with the main lens or for storage thereabove or below against a wearer's head without detachment from the system.
