摘要:
A development tool enables a device database to be created, managed, and deployed to a device as part of the a device project. The device database may have an installation property which provides logic for installing the device database at the device. Additionally, stored procedures and triggers may be registered with the device database. The registered stored procedures and triggers may be embedded in the device database and deployed to the device along with the device database.
摘要:
A composite biomaterial having a continuous metal sheet with arcuate members that define a first fenestration pattern, and a polymer layer over at least one surface of the continuous metal sheet. The arcuate members elastically stretch to allow the continuous metal sheet to bend in more than one axis without buckling or wrinkling.

摘要:
A method and apparatus of combining multiple exposure images by applying a transfer function to pixel output signals from pixels in a pixel array, the pixel output signals from each pixel including at least a first pixel output signal generated in response to a first exposure time and a second pixel output signal generated in response to a second exposure time.

Valve guides are formed on a U-shaped sheet metal rocker arm by the horizontal displacement inwardly of surface metal from the outboard portion of the rocker arm. A rocker arm body made by forming a steel flat blank into a U-shape cross-section comprising sidewalls that connect a pad end and an opposite socket end. The pad end is defined by a central section and two outboard surfaces. The valve guide walls are formed by displacing material from the outboard surface portions of the pad end and forcing it centrally. This changes, i.e., diminishes, the thickness of the outboard portions of the pad end of the rocker arm which are not aligned with valve contact central surface. The valve contact area defined by horizontal surface and by the vertical sides of the formed guide extensions is created by a tool having a width to accept a known valve stem diameter. The valve guide extensions are parallel to and offset from the pad end rocker arm sidewalls and are created to have the proper thickness as well as suitable height to survive in the rocker arm application. The surface extremity, i.e., height as well as the thickness of the valve guide wall, is determined by the amount of material displaced from surfaces of the outboard portion of the pad end of the rocker arm. Valve guide extension height and thickness dimensions can be achieved that were not attainable by known prior art methods.
摘要:
A laminar jet for a hydrotherapy tub having a water inlet adapted for attachment to a water circulation system, a flow inducer section and a cap having a water outlet at one end of the cap. The cap may be rotated so the jet directs a substantially laminar water stream from the water outlet substantially parallel to tub surface. The jet cap may be locked in a desired position. A bathtub may have a number of laminar jets which may be direct water streams toward convergent zones and may simulate natural laminar flows. The zones or streams may be associated with recesses, channels or protrusions on a tub wall or directed to or around an object or occupant in the tub. The jet may be optimized for laminar flow by CFD, including streamline adjusting, eliminating negative pressure drop, and maximizing volumetric flow.
摘要:
A method of filling a container with a product. The container may be pressurized. An outer container is provided. Product and/or propellant is disposed in the outer container. An inner container is disposed in the outer container. The inner container expands upon the insertion of product and/or propellant therein. This expansion provides for pressurization of the contents of the outer container, which pressurization is useful for dispensing the contents of the inner container, and/or outer container. This method may be performed in a variety of sequences.

An anti-tipping feature for a roller follower is provided that is positioned at the socket end of a Type II roller follower. The anti-tipping feature is designed to fit around the plunger of a lash adjuster. The feature has legs that extend down around the plunger to provide stability for the roller follower. Tipping of the roller follower is controlled by the formed legs that extend down the plunger. The length of the legs and clearance determine the amount of roller follower tipping. The valve guide wall height can be shortened enough to still provide valve containment and reduce moving mass which comprises a key component to engine performance.
