Abstract:
A checking device for checking automotive suspension system comprises a rod and a work piece fixed on the rod. The work piece includes a work surface for pressing against a tread portion of the wheel. Rotating the rod can make the wheel and the suspension system connected thereto sway in a direction different from the forward rotating direction of the wheel. Then the user can find out the faults by the abnormal sound made by the respective components of the suspension system, so that the checking device for checking automotive suspension system is capable of reducing the time for finding out the faults in the suspension system.
Abstract:
A bearing dismounting device includes a body, a rod, several clamping arms, a tightening element, and an adjusting element. Each of the clamping arms is pivotally installed around the body. The center of the body has a through hole for the rod to mount therein. One end of the rod has a positioning part, and its other end has an operating part. Each of the clamping arms extends a buckling part. The central position on the outer side of each of the clamping arms has an accommodating part. The tightening element surrounds the accommodating parts of the clamping arms. Both ends of the tightening element have an adjusting element, respectively, for urging against the tightening element, thereby positioning the clamping arms.

Abstract:
An improved side bearing for railway cars is provided that achieves improved tracking and curving by the limitation of rock of the railway car. The side bearing comprises a base with a generally upwardly extending wall portion. A cap comprising a top section with generally downwardly extending wall portion is provided. The cap extends into or around the wall section of the base. A spring is provided within the base that extends to the underside and supports the cap. A base insert is provided of varying thickness to support springs of the same preselected height to provide preselected varying load capacities.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided for dynamic selective memory mirroring in solid state devices. An amount of memory is reserved. Sections of the memory to select for mirroring in the reserved memory are dynamically determined. The selected sections of the memory contain critical areas. The selected sections of the memory are mirrored in the reserved memory.
Abstract:
The invention relates to comb polymers which comprise, in the main chain, repeating units which are derived from polyolefin-based macromonomers, and repeating units which are derived from low molecular monomers which are selected from the group consisting of styrene monomers having 8-17 carbon atoms, alkyl(meth)acrylates having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, vinyl esters having 1-11 carbon atoms in the acyl group, vinyl ethers having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, (Di)alkylfumarates having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, (Di)alkylmaleates having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group and mixtures of said monomers. The molar branching degree lies in the region between 0.1-10 mol. % and the comb polymer represents the sum of at least 80 wt. %, in relation to the weight of the repeating units, on repeating units which are derived from polyolefin-based macromonomers, and repeating units which are selected from low molecular monomers which are selected from the group consisting of styrene monomers having 8-17 carbon atoms, alkyl(meth)acrylates having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, vinyl esters having 1-11 carbon atoms in the acyl group, vinyl ethers having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, (Di)alkylfumarates having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, (Di)alkylmaleates having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, and mixtures of said monomers.
Abstract:
According to aspects of the present invention, metal oxide powder, such as yttria and alumina powder (feed material), is processed using a plasma apparatus. The process generally consists of in-flight heating and melting of the feed material by the plasma apparatus. The plasma apparatus contains a plasma torch with required power supply and cooling systems, a powder feeder, a chamber to collect the powder and a dedusting system. The heated powder forms molten spherical droplets that are rapidly cooled under free fall conditions. The plasma densification process removes some impurity oxides, modifies the morphology of the particle and increases the apparent density of the powder.
Abstract:
A method, a computer program product, and a system for generating and applying patches to a computer program concurrently with its execution. It provides full support for function pointers, transparent to the programmer and nearly transparent to the concurrent loader. A reference to a function pointer is translated into a sequence of processor instructions called function descriptor instead of translating it into an address. The purpose of the function descriptor is to jump to the memory location of the sequence of instructions generated by the compiler for the procedure referenced by the function pointer. The function descriptor is masked as a static data variable and therefore preserved during the application of a concurrent patch. The address for the jump to the procedure is updated by the regular relocation process during the application of a concurrent patch.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a low density and porous zirconia (ZrO2) powder partially alloyed with one or more of yttria, scandia, dysprosia, ytterbia, or any of the oxides of lanthanide or actinide. The total amount of alloying oxides should be less than about 30 weight percent. The powder is manufactured by controlled sintering or light plasma densification of physically agglomerated, or chemically derived zirconia composite powder that contains proper amounts of yttria, scandia, dysprosia, ytterbia, or any of the oxides of lanthanide or actinide, or any combination of the aforementioned oxides. The resulting coating from use of the inventive powder has a monoclinic phase content of less than 5 percent.
