Patent number: 11965452Abstract: A method for detecting a contaminant in a vehicle coolant system during service includes contacting a chromophore impregnated strip and a heat transfer fluid sample, where the chromophore impregnated strip includes a complexing agent selected to form a complex with the contaminant that causes a color change in the chromophore impregnated strip and thereby indicates the presence of the contaminant in the heat transfer fluid sample.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2023Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: GM GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS LLCInventors: Thomas J. Chapaton, Nicholas Paul William Pieczonka, William Reginald Collin, Ratandeep Singh Kukreja

Publication number: 20180006528Abstract: A power generating rack includes a frame; a number of parallel spaced apart rollers; and a generator in communication with the rollers for converting the energy of rotation of the rollers into electrical energy. The frame supports a vehicle such as a car, truck and bicycle in such a way that the driving wheel of the vehicle is positioned between a pair of rollers and as the driving wheel rotates so too do the rollers which energizes the generator.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 3, 2017Publication date: January 4, 2018Inventor: Reginald William BREWSTER

Patent number: 8399009Abstract: The invention provides a high performance porous bioceramic composite that has a high compression strength resulting from the ability to compression form a bioceramic precursor material and a pore forming agent under a high pressure load prior to sintering and/or removing the pore forming agent. Methods of making and using the same are also provided. Optionally, a biopolymer and/or therapeutic agent may be infused into the pores thereby forming the bioceramic composite.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2010Date of Patent: March 19, 2013Assignee: Warsaw Orthopedic, Inc.Inventors: Ian Robert Dunkley, Reginald William Smith

Publication number: 20040203172Abstract: A method and apparatus for a gas detection system comprises a sample cell containing at least one aperture and a substrate. The substrate comprises a chemiluminescent material that produces photons upon exposure to a fluorine-containing compound. A photo-detector is positioned to receive at least a portion of the photons, wherein the photo-detector generates an electrical output signal relating to a concentration of the fluorine-containing compound.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2003Publication date: October 14, 2004Applicant: URS CORPORATIONInventors: Curtis T. Laush, Thomas Chi-Tung Huang, Brett Geoffrey Wilson, Reginald William Hunter

Patent number: 5388918Abstract: A split bearing cage assembly comprising two cage parts assembled and held together by means of components in the form of dowels (3) extending through and located in apertures through both cage parts. The apertures are located and aligned such that, when the dowels are inserted into the apertures, the relative alignment between the dowels is such as to present resistance to the separation of the two cage parts so assembled. The apertures can be straight drilled holes and the dowels can be aligned so as to lie on the surface of a cone.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 1993Date of Patent: February 14, 1995Assignee: The Torrington CompanyInventor: Reginald Williams
-
Patent number: 5205656Abstract: A housing for a ball or roller bearing includes a first annular part and a second annular part which removably mate together to define a volume in which a bearing is housed and held. The two parts are provided with lugs and corresponding mating components so that when the two parts are offered up to one another and turned relatively to one another, the two parts interlock, O-rings being provided to preload the assembly. One of the parts is provided with a grease nipple.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 1991Date of Patent: April 27, 1993Assignee: The Torrington CompanyInventors: Peter T. Cornish, Reginald Williams

Patent number: 4090821Abstract: A governor device for rotary grinders and the like is disclosed. The device prevents the dangerous overspeed of the grinder by throttling air to the motor as the grinder speed approaches overspeed. Throttling action is accomplished by means of allowing a resilient split ring or segment to expand radially out against air inlet orifices by means of centrifugal force. The split ring is assisted outwardly by means of an auxiliary mass means disposed within radially extended slots of an internal cage means.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 1976Date of Patent: May 23, 1978Assignee: Ingersoll-Rand CompanyInventors: Robert Earl Barrows, Reginald William Pauley

Patent number: 4023627Abstract: This invention relates to power tools and more particularly to an air-operated power tool commonly used for automotive or other assembly operations for installing threaded fasteners. The device of this invention shuts off the power tool as it approaches the stall condition. Motor rotation is sensed by transferring a small mass of air in proportion to the speed of the motor but independent of the air expanded to operate the motor. The air transferred is utilized to create a signal which through an air-operated valve shuts the power tool off when the speed is reduced below a predetermined amount as when the torquing cycle is nearing completion.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 1975Date of Patent: May 17, 1977Assignee: Ingersoll-Rand CompanyInventors: John Madison Clapp, Reginald William Pauley
