  • Publication number: 20080093131
    Abstract: A robotic vehicle is disclosed, which is characterized by high mobility, adaptability, and the capability of being remotely controlled in hazardous environments. The robotic vehicle includes a chassis having front and rear ends and supported on right and left driven tracks. Right and left elongated flippers are disposed on corresponding sides of the chassis and operable to pivot. A linkage connects a payload deck, configured to support a removable functional payload, to the chassis. The linkage has a first end rotatably connected to the chassis at a first pivot, and a second end rotatably connected to the deck at a second pivot. Both of the first and second pivots include independently controllable pivot drivers operable to rotatably position their corresponding pivots to control both fore-aft position and pitch orientation of the payload deck with respect to the chassis.

  • Publication number: 20080038500
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing polypropylene bottles comprising, forming a polypropylene preform by injection molding, cooling the polypropylene preform to ambient temperature, preheating the preform article, wherein the temperature around the circumference of the preform article has a temperature delta of less than 5 degrees Celsius at any height along the preform, inserting the preheated preform into a cavity of a stretch blow molding machine, and stretch blow molding the preform into a polypropylene bottle at a rate of at least 1000 bottles per cavity per hour, wherein the polypropylene bottle has a wall thickness delta at any given height along the bottle of less than 30% of the average wall thickness at the given height. The invention also relates to the polypropylene bottle made from this process.

  • Patent number: 7165070
    Abstract: A method of retrieving information by navigating within a web browsing session. The information is stored on a server in a hierarchical tree comprising a root node, top-level child nodes representing information categories and leaf nodes representing information sub-categories. Each of the nodes has an associated information unit. Initially, an information unit associated with the root node is displayed in an information space. A user then performs navigation operations from the root node, by selecting a first top-level child node, traversing the leaf nodes and selecting a first leaf node. A first information unit associated with the first leaf node is subsequently displayed in the information space. This first information unit is stored, the navigation operations are repeated on a second top-level child node until a second information unit is displayed in the information space.
