Abstract: Card-handling devices may include a card-shuffling apparatus, a card output portion, and/or a card input portion. The card input portion may include a card rotation device. The card rotation device may be configured to receive and rotate cards about a minor axis of the cards. The card-handling device may include a card-shuffling apparatus including a carousel having at least one hundred compartments each configured to hold between one and ten cards and arranged radially about the carousel. The card-handling device may be positioned at a gaming structure with a playing surface. The card-handling device may include a card output portion for receiving shuffled cards from the card-shuffling apparatus. The card output portion may be configured to receive the cards where major faces of the playing cards are oriented in a plane substantially transverse to the playing surface.

Abstract: Aspects herein include monitoring devices for filtration systems. An embodiment of the monitoring device can include a first fluid conduit and a first pressure sensor, wherein the first pressure sensor is in fluid communication with the first fluid conduit. The monitoring device can also include a second fluid conduit and a second pressure sensor, wherein the second pressure sensor is in fluid communication with the second fluid conduit. The monitoring device can also include a control circuit in electronic communication with the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor. The monitoring device can also include a housing, wherein the first pressure sensor, the second pressure sensor and the control circuit are all disposed within the housing. Other embodiments are also included herein.

Abstract: Airline operator-customers manage aircraft maintenance data for fleets of commercial aircraft using a suite of electronic maintenance tools that are delivered to the customers over the Internet and viewed with a web browser. The maintenance tool suite includes an authoring module that allows customers to create, edit and manage both OEM originated aircraft maintenance data and the customers' own data within a fully integrated environment running as a web application over the Internet. The authoring module combines workflow, XML authoring and editing, import/export of the data, change reconciliation, and publishing of airline customer authored documents, airline customer authored changes, OEM Temporary Revisions, and OEM aircraft maintenance documents into a single integrated web application using XML as the maintenance document format. The use of XML as the native format of the aircraft maintenance data allows the customers to reuse the data in a variety of ways.

Abstract: A cartridge valve assembly (19) including a sleeve valve (49) fixed within a valve housing (17), and a spool valve (47) moveable both axially and rotatably within the sleeve valve. Rotation of an input (35,39) causes rotation of a cam member (43) and the spool valve, and the engagement of the cam member (43) with a cam surface (57) results in axial movement of the spool valve within the sleeve valve. The spool and sleeve valves define a neutral axial and rotational position (FIG. 5), and rotation from neutral in a first direction (FIG. 6) communicates fluid from an inlet port (21) to a first actuator port (25), and rotation from neutral in a second direction (FIG. 7) communicates fluid from the inlet port to a second actuator port (27). In either case, the axial movement of the spool valve (47), relative to the sleeve valve (49) is the same. The spool valve defines a load holding land (97) which, in the neutral position (FIG.

Abstract: A compressed natural gas solenoid controlled valve is mounted in the threaded opening of a pressure vessel which contains the gas. The valve includes a valve body having a head which is exposed outside of the pressure vessel and a neck which is located within the pressure vessel. A solenoid poppet valve is mounted to the inner end of the neck. A valve seat is mounted in a bore within the valve body, and provides a flow passage which extends between an orifice at the inner end of the valve seat and an outlet port which is located in the head of the valve body. The solenoid poppet valve includes a seal for closing the orifice, a bias spring which biases the seal toward the seat to close the orifice, a plunger which is connected to the seal, and a solenoid coil which, when energized, moves the plunger so that the seal moves out of engagement with the seat and permits flow of compressed gas from the interior of the pressure vessel to the outlet port.
