摘要:
A pipe conveyed charge system, for example a junk shot, having a self-contained activating charge which may be activated by mechanical force applied through the pipe. The initiating charge is pressure actuated, and fluid pressure in the pipe is used to fire the charge. The system includes a circulating crossover coupling an explosive charge to a pipe string and including circulating ports directing fluid flow downhole to clear debris from the borehole. A ball, or other blocking material, is conveyed down the drill pipe to block circulating ports to facilitate raising pressure in the pipe to a sufficient level to fire the activating charge.

A stereotaxic instrument is coupled to a split-screen imaging system to provide a split-screen image of the skull of the brain research subject animal along with an image of the X, Y and Z coordinates of the electrode tip (or other tool tip) being used. In addition, a third split-screen image of a recording graph displaying electrical activity recorded by an electrode may be shown. The imaging system may be a microscope/computer system or digital camera/computer system. The split-screen images may be displayed on a computer monitor or in a microscope. The system can be utilized with motor driven shift mechanisms or with manual shift mechanisms. The system allows experiments to be conducted with the subject enclosed within a Faraday cage. Remote and automatic cell searching experiments may be conducted as well.

A method for reducing false detects may include emitting an infrared light beam from a primary emitter to a primary monitor detector, measuring a first voltage value using a primary receive detector and setting a primary smoke alarm flag corresponding to a primary channel if the first voltage value is above a first threshold value. The method may also include measuring a second voltage value using a secondary receive detector, setting a secondary smoke alarm flag corresponding to a secondary channel if the second voltage value is above a second threshold value and setting an alarm indicating a smoke condition if the primary smoke alarm flag and the secondary smoke alarm flag are set.

An adjustable shoulder anchorage for a vehicle seat belt system comprises a length of webbing secured in the vehicle to extend generally upright in the region of the shoulder of the user of the system, and a connector having a running loop for the belt integrally formed therewith or secured thereto and movable to a selected position along the webbing. The webbing extends through a slot in the connector and reverses its direction around fixed and movable transverse bars of the connector between which the webbing is snubbed to securely hold the connector in the selected position.

The embodiments described herein provide in one aspect a cylindrical carrying case comprising a top panel, a bottom panel, a side panel, a graphic display cover and a strap. The top, bottom and side panels can be configured to define an interior volume and an outer surface of the carrying case. The top, bottom and side panels are substantially inflexible and the top panel is releasably attached to the side panel to define a top opening for inserting items in, or removing items from, the interior volume of the carrying case. The graphic display cover comprises a continuous, transparent panel and is conformable to the shape of the outer surface of the carrying case. The graphic display cover is releasably coupled to the outer surface of the carrying case to form a pocket having at least one opening. The strap has a length and first and second ends attached to the carrying case.

A gaming device presents a paytable with entries showing a range of outcome values. When the outcome displayed by the gaming device matches an entry on the paytable showing a range of outcome values, an audiovisual clip is played and the player is informed as to which precise value within the range of values is the actual outcome value. The particular audiovisual clip shown may provide an indication of where within the range the precise value lies by virtue of the particular clip's importance. The audiovisual clip is repurposed from its original purpose for use in the gaming device, and may be a clip from a movie, motion picture, television show, or the like.
摘要:
A flexible electronic display device containing a plurality of fields for displaying information is disclosed. The electronic display device comprises an active area having at least one field comprising a series of interleaved characters that can be selectively activated such that different messages are readable depending upon which characters are activated. The active area can comprise additional fields.
摘要:
In accordance with some embodiments, a plurality of outcomes are generated and used to create a video presentation of representative outcomes. The video presentation is recorded onto a tangible medium (e.g., DVD or CD-ROM) or otherwise provided to a player (e.g., player may access the video presentation online). This allows a player to purchase a video presentation of (e.g., predetermined) outcomes in a jurisdiction in which gambling is legal yet view the presentation at the players convenience (e.g., from any jurisdiction and at any time). The outcomes on the DVD or CD ROM may be viewed on a video display generated by a primary output device (e.g., a personal computer or a DVD player). In addition, the player may purchase or otherwise obtain an accessory device that interacts (e.g., augments the outcomes) with the game play recorded on the tangible medium.
摘要:
In accordance with some embodiments, a plurality of outcomes are generated and used to create a video presentation of representative outcomes (e.g., for a blackjack game, for a video poker game) for one or more players. The video presentation is recorded onto a tangible medium (e.g., DVD or CD-ROM) or otherwise provided to one or more players (e.g., a player may access the video presentation online). This allows one or more players to purchase a video presentation of (e.g., predetermined) outcomes in a jurisdiction in which gambling is legal yet view the presentation at the player's convenience (e.g., from any jurisdiction and at any time). At least one player who is associated with such a video presentation may subsequently redeem it for a redemption value associated therewith.
