摘要:
A base wager is received and an initial player hand and an initial dealer hand are dealt. If the initial player hand forms a target value hand, a target hand payout is issued and the game terminated, unless the initial dealer hand is also a target value hand, resulting in a push. A final player hand is formed by receiving at least one additional playing card to the initial player hand or standing. If at least one additional card is received, a determination is made whether the final player hand, which contains more than the initial quantity of playing cards, forms a player winning hand, in which case a player winning hand payout is issued and the game terminated. A final dealer hand is formed and any remaining base wagers are resolved by comparing the final player hand to the final dealer hand and the target value.

A miniature mass spectrometer that may be coupled to an atmospheric pressure ionisation source is described. Ions pass through a small orifice from a region at atmospheric pressure or low vacuum, and undergo efficient collisional cooling as they transit a very short, differentially pumped ion guide. A narrow beam of low energy ions is passed through a small aperture and into a separate chamber containing the mass analyser.

Methods and systems respectively provide for receiving a wireless signal coverage map request from a wireless device. A map is generated in accordance with the request and provided to the wireless device. The map includes symbology keyed to wireless signal services within a particular geographic area. Such symbology can be indicative of recommended areas and travel routes having particular types of wireless signal coverage, regions of poor or non-existent wireless signal service, areas presently experiencing heavy wireless signal usage, and so on. In this way, a wireless device user can seek to access specific wireless services and/or avoid suspect trouble regions within a geographic area.

摘要:
A microengineered multipole ion guide for use in miniature mass spectrometer systems is described. Exemplary methods of mounting rods in hexapole, octupole, and other multipole geometries are described. The rods forming the ion guide are supported in etched silicon structures defined in at least first and second substrates.

Methods, systems and computer program products of dynamic communication data routing by a multi-network remote communication terminal across a plurality of networks are provided. The multi-network remote communication terminal is delivered to a locality to receive communication services. The terminal is communicatively connected to a first network, a second network, the second network having a communication characteristic different from the first network, and to a user endpoint device positioned in the locality. Communication data directed to a target device from the user endpoint device is received at the terminal. A characteristic of the received communication data is determined. Routing of received communication data to the target device is allocated across the first network and/or the second network based on the determined characteristic of the received communication data and the communication characteristics of the first and second network. Routing of the received communication data is dynamically re-allocated based on a detected change in the characteristic of the communication data.
摘要:
A test bench for testing a hammer and hammer tool comprising: a bench frame; a load cell assembly mounted on the bench frame for absorbing the impact delivered by the hammer; and a movable mounting deck for securing the hammer to the bench frame and for moving the hammer with the hammer tool into a test firing position against the load cell assembly and delivering an impact force against the load cell assembly. The load cell assembly comprises a pneumatic air bag assembly constructed to dissipate the impact force of the hammer. Other aspects include a load cell assembly for testing a hammer and hammer tool and a method for test firing a hammer tool. Hydraulic hammers generating forces between 200 ft-lb and 12,000 ft-lb can be adequately test fired.
摘要:
A tiltable platform and container system employs a container on a tilted platform which when released will move rearwardly under the influence of gravity to an off-loading position. The container is loaded by a winch and cable attachable to the container to roll the container onto the trailer. The container is provided with individually vertically adjustable rear ground engaging means whose vertical adjustments are controlled by at least one pitch-sensitive switch which enables the container to remain substantially level during loading and unloading from a tilted platform.
摘要:
An integrated analytical device is described. The device includes a plurality of components which are initially mounted or provided on support submounts. The submounts are then packaged onto a microbench, with the alignment of the submounts relative to the microbench being determined by alignment features provided on the microbench.

Methods for preparing microparticles having improved flowability to facilitate processing in automated equipment. Microparticles are conditioned so that a flowability index of the microparticles is greater than about 60. The conditioning preferably includes maintaining the microparticles at a conditioning temperature for a period of time. The conditioning can be used with microparticles containing an active agent, and with placebo microparticles, and it is reversible.
