Abstract: A system and method are provided which incrementally samples and delays a signal passed through a transmission channel thereto. A receiver section is provided with a delay stage including a sample storage portion having a plurality of capacitors. A switch portion selectively switches the capacitors to respectively store incremental samples of the signal received through the channel. A clock source is provided to generate a plurality of periodic clock signals progressively shifted by a predefined clock phase increment. The clock source drives the switch portion to synchronously cycle the capacitors through at least sample and readout modes of operation, which are mutually offset in time by a preselected number of clock phase increments. The received signal is collectively reconstructed from the incremental samples of the capacitors, such that the reconstructed signal is delayed by the preselected number of clock phase increments.

Abstract: A block-off plate assembly for preventing gasoline leakage near the outer surface of a carburetor bowl of the type used on motorbikes and all-terrain vehicles, comprising two components, the first being a custom-machined plate fabricated from a suitable rigid material. The plate further comprises a smooth, inner planar surface, a parallel, planar outer surface, and a circular channel, machined to a specific depth, into the inner surface. Left and right apertures, both equally sized, are through-drilled into the left shoulder and right shoulder, respectively, of the block-off plate to accommodate the insertion of a machine screw through each aperture. The second component comprises an elastomeric O-ring having dimensions corresponding to the circular channel, thereby serving to provide effective fluid-tight sealing of an orifice in the carburetor bowl.

Abstract: In one embodiment of the invention, a method is disclosed to generate a clock output signal with selected phase. The method includes selecting a phase delay for the clock output signal; charging a capacitor with a first weighted current during a first phase input clock, charging the capacitor with a second weighted current during a portion of a second phase input clock, and determining if a voltage across the capacitor is greater than or equal to a threshold voltage to generate a first edge of the clock output signal with the selected phase delay. The first weighted current may have a weighting of N out of M to charge the capacitor with a predetermined rate of change in voltage in response to the selected phase delay. The second weighted current may have a weighting of M out of M to charge the capacitor with a constant rate of change.

The dispensing opening may be a spout, and the brush applicator has a brush body with bristles and a cap for surrounding the dispensing opening. There are first threads on the container and second threads in the brush applicator with these threads part of a valve structure wherein the tightening of the threads effects a fluid seal between the cap and the dispensing opening, and loosening the threads allows variable fluid flow from the container into the brush applicator.

Abstract: A gear shift mechanism is for a gear mounted on a shaft within the housing of a power transmitting device. A shift rod is mounted through a hole in the housing parallel with the shaft and is capable of axial movement between a first and a second position to cause corresponding movement of the gear. A locking lever is pivotally mounted within a slot in the shift rod and has an extended end capable of extending beyond the interior surface of the shift rod. The locking lever is pivotally biased to cause the extended end to overlie the housing adjacent the hold when the shift rod is in the first position. A camming rod is also mounted within the shift rod and can be moved axially to pivot the locking lever against biasing to release the shift rod during shifting from the first position to the second position.

The writing lines are dived into segments, each segment consisting of an arrangement of circles, squares or other shapes. The segments are repetitive. If the pen or pencil is set down in a square or other shape and writing is then begun, part of the sound need not be written, because it is implied by the square chosen. There is also a neutral position when implied sound is not wanted.
