摘要:
A fluid dispensing apparatus integrated within a pedal operated vehicle such as bicycles, tricycles, three-wheelers, four-wheelers and paddleboats is provided comprising a means for storing a fluid, such as water, a means for pressurizing said stored fluid, a means for controlling the release of said pressurized fluid in the form of one or more jets. In the preferred embodiment, the fluid is stored within one or more tanks or reservoirs, which tanks include a pump mechanism for pressurizing the tanks and the fluid stored therein. The pump mechanism includes pistons which are connected to the pedal cranks of the vehicle such that operation of the pedals so as to propel the vehicle simultaneously serves to reciprocate the pistons of the pump mechanism, thereby pressurizing the fluid tanks. Connected to the fluid storage tanks is at least one conduit or hose which is connected at its opposite end to a nozzle for dispensing the fluid. A trigger is incorporated with said nozzle so as to allow the user to alternatively release the pressurized fluid or stop the flow of said fluid. The nozzle may be incorporated on the handlebars or steering mechanism of the vehicle such that the fluid is released in the direction the vehicle is facing. A safety valve is also provided for the storage tanks to prevent the generation of dangerous pressure level.

In an automated teller machine (ATM) deploying a functionality for the purchase and transmission of electronic gift cards, pre-paid stored-value instruments, and/or cellular phone minutes, account recharging, or data recharging via the ATM graphical user interface (GUI). Additionally, the ATM having a functionality for the receipt, viewing, and redemption of gift cards, pre-paid stored-value instruments, and/or cellular phone minutes or data via short messaging service (SMS or other messaging service) delivery to a user device after being purchased and transmitted via the ATM GUI. Further, the pre-existing ATM being enabled to be remotely updated graded to augment enable the above-stated functionality in addition to its pre-existing ATM functionality. Further, the pre-existing ATM being enabled for remotely updating the ATM GUI.

A virtual regulator monitors and manages a plurality of database systems in a domain. Each of the database systems is tuned for a particular type of workload, and the virtual regulator or multiple virtual regulators running in parallel routes a set of one or more queries to a particular database system within the domain based on a cost function for each database system.

A disk drive having a single drive motor and multiple platters that incorporates two discrete data paths, actuators and heads to the disk platters. Utilizing the economy of very large capacity disk platters, two or more disk drives can be created within a single physical enclosure. These two disks will be share many common parts such as the drive enclosure and spindle motor, but will have the performance and appearance to the system as two or more independent disks. Instead of having one actuator arm, the virtual disks will have two or more actuator arms and two or more sets of digital electronics. The storage on all the platters is divided up among the actuators so that no storage location is shared, but all the actuators will operate concurrently. Each actuator will have exclusive use of a subset of the data storage. Disks normally only have one actuator connected to multiple heads, at least one per surface, which only allow a single data seek and data transfer at a time. The virtual disks will have two or more actuators, one for each virtual disk, improving performance for the capacity of the platters through concurrent data seeks and transfers to different data areas.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a dual antenna coil identification system, and more particularly, to an interrogator or reader for inductively coupling to a transponder and thereby extract data from the transponder. The magnetic field required to energize a transponder is generated by currents flowing through two essentially identical but opposite phased antenna coils arranged near the area where tags are to be read.
