An optical fibre assembly 10 for blown installation, comprises a fibre unit 12 having at least one optical fibre 14. The unit has a coating comprising an external layer 18 of a material containing hollow glass beads 22 at least some of which project from the outer surface 24 of the external layer. The coating also has an inner, buffer layer 16 of a material having a lower modulus of elasticity than that of the material of the external layer and an intermediate layer 20 of material disposed between the external and inner layers.

This invention relates to an improved solenoid operated fluid control valve particularly adapted for use as a vacuum control switch in a motor vehicle. One aspect of this invention is the provision of a coil assembly adapted to be wound and terminated using completely automated processes. This feature is provided through the use of a bobbin structure having protruding coil winding posts which position the start and finish ends of the coil wire. Terminal members are installed onto the bobbin and have terminal contact portions which can be folded onto the wire. Another feature of this invention involves means for reducing noise generated from actuation of the valve device. In conventional solenoid employing a "C" frame member, direct mechanical contact exists between the "C" frame member and another component of the magnetic circuit of the solenoid. In accordance with this invention, a thin annular layer of encapsulation material is provided between bores of the "C" frame member and the associated components of the magnetic circuit. This layer of encapsulation material prevents direct mechanical coupling with the "C" frame component, thus reducing noise generation. Means for calibrating the valve assembly according to this invention are also provided comprising driving a pole piece member into the coil bobbin bore as electrical and fluid control signals are applied. The pole piece motion is stopped once a change in state of the valve is observed, whereupon the desired physical parameters of the valve are provided.

A system for selectively positioning one end of a treadmill running machine at one of the plurality of locked positions in order to provide an inclined running surface. A support assembly having a ground engaging roller disposed between a pair of arms is pivotally connected to the frame of the treadmill for swinging movement between a retracted position adjacent the frame and one of a plurality of downward, extended positions. So that the treadmill may be easily raised and lowered to a desired operating position, a gas spring is provided for each of the arms of the support assembly. The upper end of each gas spring is securely connected to the frame, while the lower end is pivotally attached to its respective arm. To maintain the support assembly in one of its extended positions, a slide-tube assembly having a releasable clamping sleeve is associated with each of the arms and pivotally connected to the frame and arm to accommodate the swinging movement of the support assembly.

A stationary exercise apparatus intended to simulate the action of pedaling a bicycle includes a base and a flywheel mounted on the base for rotation about a vertical axis. The flywheel is coupled in driven relationship to a pair of pedal cranks mounted on the base. The pedal cranks are mounted for rotation about a horizontal axis as in a conventional bicycle. Preferably, the flywheel is mounted directly below the pedals on a shaft whose upper end is formed to be a worm, the worm being driven by a drive gear attached to the pedal cranks. The orientation and location of the flywheel add to the stability of the exercise device as well as aiding in the outward appearance of the device.

Vehicle operating conditions are computed and the instant variable cost of operation is displayed, enabling operators to learn to operate the vehicle in ways that maximize value, minimize fuel consumption, and reduce or avoid operations that are excessively costly or wasteful. The display quantity is termed “Dynamic Fuel Cost” or DFC, usually measured and displayed in currency (such as Dollars or Euros) per hour. Once every second or so, up to six modes of vehicle operation are detected, including steady speed, acceleration, deceleration by coasting (reduced power or parasitic drag), regenerative braking (in vehicles so equipped such as hybrids), friction braking, and zero speed idling. Then DFC is computed and displayed to the operator. Operators can choose to operate the vehicle in ways that maximize the value of their time and minimize fuel consumption and resulting emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases.

Methods and corresponding systems are provided for determining a ply count of a multilayer material is provided that includes: placing the multilayer material between an emitter and a detector of a gauge; emitting at least one pulse of ionized radiation from a source associated with the emitter; detecting a number of particles emitted from the emitter passing through the multilayer material placed between the emitter and the detector; and translating the number of particles detected into a ply count using a computing device.
