  • Patent number: 7218101
    Abstract: A pressure vessel penetration sidewall adjacent a tube installed in the penetration by a clearance fit is inspected by passing an eddy current probe having a pair of circumferential coils through the tube. Eddy currents are induced in the pressure vessel as the probe passes through the penetration tube and degradation of the pressure vessel adjacent the clearance is determined based upon the eddy currents induced in the pressure vessel by the probe.

  • Patent number: 5750934
    Abstract: A mouse cable holder (mouse hook) includes a base heavy enough to support a mast that suspends a computer mouse cable over a separate mouse pad. The mast is made of a single steel wire with an integral cable feed loop at its lower end and an integral mouse cable gripper at its upper end. The base can be slid over a table top to move the mouse cable holder to a desired position relative to the mouse pad. The base also serves as a spool to take up any excess cable between a computer and the mouse cable holder.

  • Patent number: 5156636
    Abstract: An apparatus for measuring an outside diameter of a cylindrical object moving along an axis includes a plurality of fixed transducer pairs for providing a continuous outside diameter profile of the moving cylindrical object. The sensors are located in a holder enveloping the cylindrical object. Temperature compensation for changes in temperature in the coupling medium include a wire reflector in an ultrasonic path at a fixed distance from a face of the sensor. Various types of outputs, including a continuous profile of the cylindrical object are provided. A method of measuring the outside diameter of such cylindrical objects while moving is also disclosed.
