摘要:
A coating system that applies a coating of particles to a surface of an article. The coating system comprises a hybrid plasma torch which may include a cathode, a first plasma gas chamber, a first mixing chamber, a plasma generator for generating an arc column of plasma, a second mixing chamber for mixing a main gas, an at least partially ionized first plasma gas and a second gas that was mixed in the first mixing chamber, wherein the second mixing chamber is dimensioned to receive a plurality of powder particles suspended in a carrier gas, and an accelerator assembly for accelerating the mixture of the main gas, the at least partially ionized first plasma gas, the second plasma gas and the powder particles into a high-velocity stream and for directing the high-velocity stream against the surface of the article. A method of applying the coating of particles is also provided.
摘要:
A system and method for storing data in multiple locations on the basis of rules maintained by the system. The invention can enable data management, collaboration of data usage between users and the storage of data. The invention can be used for just-in-time location, retrieval, aggregation and delivery of a view of information that may not result in the information being moved from or stored other than from the approved location. Optionally, further assurance of data location may be periodically provided by a location audit service.
摘要:
A user interface for a microwave oven. The user interface including: a power input element for receiving user input to adjust a cooking power setting; a time input element for receiving user input to adjust a cooking time setting; a display element for displaying the cooking power setting and the cooking time setting; and a processor module that receives a first signal from the power input element that is indicative of an adjustment to a cooking power setting and a second signal from the time input element that is indicative of an adjustment to a cooking time setting; the processor being coupled to the display element to cause the display to present the user selected cooking power setting and the user selected cooking time setting; wherein: upon commencing a cooking cycle, user input applied to the power input module caused the user selected cooking power setting to be adjusted. The user interface can further include: a plurality of shortcut selection elements, each shortcut selection element is associated with a predetermined cooking profile having predetermined cooking settings. The user interface can further include: an “a bit more” selection element that causes calculation of a supplemental cooking setting.
