Abstract:
A fan brake system for controlling an industrial fan system, the fan brake system including a fan brake having a brake pad movable on the fan brake to selectively engage the fan system. An actuator including a motor can be operable to cause the fan brake to perform a braking procedure on the fan system to resist rotational movement of the fan system. A controller can be communicated with the actuator, the controller operable to selectively cause the actuator and the fan brake to perform the braking procedure, wherein the controller is operable to monitor and control power being supplied to the motor of the actuator during the braking procedure to maintain a torque output of the motor according to a predetermined torque profile during the braking procedure.
Abstract:
An oscillator unit for a vehicle detector includes an oscillator circuit for generating vehicle detector loop signals in response to enabling control signals from a vehicle detector control unit, a gain control circuit for maintaining the amplitude of the oscillator output signals within a limited range, and a clamping circuit for eliminating ringing of the oscillator output signals when operation of the oscillator circuit is disabled. The gain control circuit eliminates random amplitude changes in the vehicle detector loop signals generated by the oscillator circuit caused by changing environmental conditions experienced by the vehicle detector loop. The clamping circuit provides immediate clamping of the oscillator circuit operation to eliminate ringing when the control signal switches to the off state. The few additional circuit components which provide the gain control and clamping functions add very little to the overall cost of the oscillator circuit.

Abstract:
A shipping strap assembly protects the isolator mechanism of a vibratory screening machine against exceeding its elastic limits. The isolator mechanism is pivotally connected between shafts on the machine frame and the machine basket. The protective assembly includes a distally narrowing boss on at least one of the shafts. A rigid strap has two apertures, one contoured to receive and ride on the boss and the other contoured to receive the other shaft, spaced to maintain the distance between the shaft axes within an elastic limit of the isolator mechanism. The narrowing boss provides leeway for easy manual alignment of the mechanism shafts with the strap apertures, and the narrowing boss and contour of the other aperture facilitate restoration toward its normal load length, of an elastically distorted mechanism.
Abstract:
A method of hydraulically fracturing a subterranean formation penetrated by a wellbore comprises: providing a diverting fluid comprising a carrier fluid, a first superabsorbent polymer and a second superabsorbent polymer, the second superabsorbent polymer having a shape, or a composition, or a combination thereof different from that of the first superabsorbent polymer; injecting the diverting fluid into the subterranean formation; and injecting a fracturing fluid into the formation after injecting the diverting fluid. A viscosity modifying agent can be present in the diverting fluid. Superabsorbent polymers can also be used to develop a temporary filter cake at the formation face to reduce or eliminate the fluid leakoff out of the wellbore.
Abstract:
A shaker has a side frame member disposed on the side of the shaker and a seal disposed about the side frame member. The side frame member has a top, a side, and a bottom. The seal conforms to the shape and dimensions of the side frame member and is constructed and arranged to substantially cover the side frame member.
Abstract:
Embodiments of systems, apparatuses, and methods for performing a range mapping instruction in a computer processor are described. In some embodiments, the execution of a range mapping instruction maps a data element having a source data range to a destination data element having a destination data range and storage of the of the destination data element.
Abstract:
A waste container for disposing sanitary waste, such as soiled diapers, comprises a canister having a storage space, an opening at an upper end and a bottom at a lower end. A retainer frame is pivotally attached to the canister and has an aperture for inserting a trash bag through the aperture and folding an upper edge of the trash bag over the retainer frame. A retainer is pivotally attached to the canister and has a rim that inserts into the aperture of the retainer frame to retain the trash bag. A lid having a hole which aligns with the aperture of the retainer frame is pivotally attached to the canister for allowing the lid to pivot between a closed position covering the opening and an open position. A sliding door is coupled to the lid and is slidable between a closed position and an open position.
