摘要:
A seal assembly for a fluid pressure control device includes a guide element having a scaling surface and a first guide surface. A throttling element assembly includes a throttling element positionable within a fluid flow path, the assembly defines a mating surface adapted to seal with the sealing surface, and a second guide surface sized to slidingly engage the first guide surface. A relief void is formed in at least one of the guide element and the throttling element assembly adjacent the first and second guide surfaces to receive loose solid material, to thereby prevent disruption of the seal formed between the sealing surface and the mating surface.

A method and apparatus are used to simultaneously display a virtual dealer and a dynamic visual background image in connection with a multi-player video platform simulating and effecting play of a casino table card game. The dealer imagery is in the foreground and the background is behind the dealer. The background is either a live video feed from the casino, live feed from another location or event or pre-recorded image sequences. The various videos are keyed or masked and layered together using known video production technology.

Split packing followers for use with valves are disclosed. A disclosed packing follower includes a first member having a first portion of a flange and a first portion of a curved wall extending substantially perpendicularly from the first portion of the flange to define a first portion of a cylindrical member. The disclosed packing follower further includes a second member separable from the first member. The second member includes a second portion of the flange and a second portion of a curved wall extending substantially perpendicularly from the second portion of the flange to define a second portion of the cylindrical member. The first and second members include complementary interlocking structures that are configured to mechanically couple the first and second members to form the packing follower.

Fluid pressure reduction devices for use in gas and liquid handling systems are disclosed. An example fluid pressure reduction device includes a plurality of cylinders, each having an inner diameter surface and an outer diameter surface and a plurality of apertures that extend from the inner diameter surface to the outer diameter surface. The cylinders are arranged in a nested configuration so that a substantial portion of the inner diameter surface of one of the plurality of cylinders is in contact with a substantial portion of the outer diameter surface of another one of the cylinders. Portions of the apertures of one of the cylinders overlap at least portions of the apertures of another one of the cylinders to form a process fluid flow path.

An automated gaming system comprises a gaming table and an upright video display panel. The system comprises a table having an upper surface, the upper surface having a video display surface that provides a continuous field of video display and at least two different player positions. There is a processor in information communication with the upright video display panel and the video display surface. The processor directs video display on both the upright video display panel and the video display surface. The same or a separate processor provides game rules for the play of at least one casino table card game without the use of physical cards on the table. Each player position has an individual intelligent player processing board dedicated to that position. Communication between the automated gaming system and a host casino computer takes place from the intelligent player processing boards in one form of the invention.
