摘要:
A system that enables controlling motion over a network comprises an interface that receives motion control data that includes a time stamp from the network. Additionally, the system includes a motion control component that utilizes the received motion control data to update properties associated with the motion control component based at least in part on the time stamp. The system can also include a clock that is synchronized with disparate clocks associated with disparate motion control components located on the network.

Standardizing a mail processing system. An intelligient mail processing system provides a mail tracking code affixed to each mail piece and a mail tracking procedure using the mail tracking code. Tasks that comprise the mail processing system are identified, and the mail processing system is implemented through documentation and training. After implementation, testing insures compliance with the implemented mail processing system.

A method of analyzing the operation of a delivery system. The method includes: determining a seeding plan; placing a seed piece into the delivery system; tracking the seed piece through the delivery system to generate tracking data; storing the tracking data in a central repository; and analyzing the tracking data to determine one or more faults.

A gas generator comprising a pressure vessel containing a gas under a first predetermined pressure. An initiator housing closes one end of the pressure vessel and has an opening at the inner end thereof that is closed by an initiator rupture disk constructed to rupture at a second predetermined pressure in the initiator housing greater than the first predetermined pressure. A micro-gas generator or initiator is disposed within the initiator housing. A manifold closes the other end of the pressure vessel and has an opening at the inner end thereof closed by a manifold rupture disk constructed to rupture at a third predetermined pressure greater than the first predetermined pressure. Upon the firing of the micro-gas generator or initiator, the gas pressure in the initiator housing increases to or exceeds the second predetermined pressure to rupture the initiator rupture disk and create a pressure wave that travels through the pressure vessel to create a localized pressure at the manifold rupture disk that equals or exceeds the third predetermined pressure to rupture the manifold rupture disk and allow flow of cool pressurized gas through the manifold before the gas in the pressure vessel is significantly heated and pressurized by the gas flow from the initiator housing.

The invention includes a body defining a viewing aperture. An opaque substrate bearing a first image and a second image is disposed within the body and is movable between a first position in which the first image is disposed within the viewing aperture and a second position in which the second image is disposed within the viewing aperture. An output generator is coupled to the body and is configured to generate a first output associated with the first image when the substrate is disposed in the first position and a second output associated with the second image when the substrate is disposed in the second position.

A method of receiving a first set of target data points from a first data feed and receiving a second set of target data points from a second data feed arrangement. Comparing a time variable included in the target data points from the first set to the time variable included in the target data points from the second set to determine time matched target data points and further comparing a second variable included in the time matched target data points from the first set to the second variable included in the corresponding time matched target data points from the second set to determine fully matched target data points. Combining the first set of target data points with the second set of target data points when the fully matched target data points satisfies a predetermined threshold.

A method of connecting wells for the purpose of producing salt by solution mining. Two wells are drilled into the salt bed, one of which is drilled in the conventional manner, that is, essentially vertically and the other of which is drilled from a point on the surface a selected distance from the first well and is deflected in the direction towards the conventional well so that the bottom of the deflected well approaches within a selected distance of the bottom of the conventional well. After the two wells are drilled the salt is fractured by the use of a conventional high pressure liquid fracturing technique in one or the other or both of the two wells, so that a fracture for fluid flow between the two wells will hopefully be obtained. Thereafter the salt is mined by flowing fresh water down one well and withdrawing saturated salt solution from the other well, the water passing from one well to the other through the fracture zone where it dissolves the salt, creating a cavity.If it turns out to be impossible to form a fracture between the two wells, the deflected well is directionally drilled further towards the vertical well.If the wells still do not connect each is independently solution mined, forming enlarged caverns. When the caverns coalesce the formation can be mined by pumping fresh water down one well and removing concentrated brine from the other.

The present invention provides various aspects of a novel safety light that can be attached to a bicyclist or an athlete so as to define a well lit, safe distance to avoid collision by a motorist. The present safety concerns would find advantage in an easy to attach safety light that is much larger, more conspicuous and one that provides greater lumens. It would be desirable for athletes and the sports industry if there was provided an improved safety light system to provide a significant warning to let motorists know the safe distance that any motorist and/or his vehicle needs to avoid so as not to hit the cyclist or athlete.
