摘要:
A force sensor (50, 50′, 50a) generates a signal indicating the usage of a seat belt. A cylindrical housing (70, 70′) has a wall (72) and a bottom (74) which define an internal cavity (88). The bottom has an opening (76) through it. A cable anchor (90) is slidably received within the cavity and is connected to a cable (54). The cable has one end secured to the cable anchor and another end connected to an anchor point. A magnet (120) is connected to a top of the cable anchor and is movable with the cable anchor. The cable anchor is biased to resist motion of the cable anchor toward the bottom of the housing. A magnetic sensor (200) generates a signal indicative of the distance between it and the magnet. A sensor housing (180) is connected to the housing and is positioned on the housing to position the magnetic sensor a determinable distance from the magnet at a null position. A housing end cap (150) is secured to the housing for enclosing an open end of the housing. The magnet and the magnetic sensor are movable when a force of a determinable level is applied to the end cap causing the relative movement of the magnet and the magnetic sensor.

A force sensor (50, 50′, 50a) generates a signal indicating the usage of a seat belt. A cylindrical housing (70, 70′) has a wall (72) and a bottom (74) which define an internal cavity (124). The bottom has an opening (76) through it. A cable anchor (90) is slidably received within the cavity and is connected to a cable (54). The cable has one end secured to the cable anchor and another end connected to an anchor point. A magnet (120) is connected to a top of the cable anchor and is movable with the cable anchor.

摘要:
Techniques for enabling broadband data rates at mobile terminals in a beyond-line-of-sight communication system are disclosed. Forward link time-diversity transmission methods and a time-diversity transmitter based upon blockage characteristics are provided. The transmitter optionally supports selective time-diversity and can operate at Ku-band or higher frequencies. A forward link time-diversity receiver and methods for receiving a forward link time-diversity signal are also disclosed. The forward link time-diversity receiver optionally provides low-jitter or low-delay characteristics. A return link transmitter and return link transmit methods which avoid blockages are also disclosed. The return link transmitter can include a signal presence detector and blockage prediction filter.

摘要:
Atorvastatin lactone is prepared by hydrogenating tert-butyl isopropylidene nitrile to tert-butyl isopropylidene amine and condensing the amine with the diketone of atorvastatin to form acetonide ester. The diol protecting acetonide ester is deprotected to form a diol ester by dissolving the acetonide ester in methanol and treating with an acid. The diol ester is saponified to form a sodium salt. Methanol is removed from the reaction mixture by distillation. The sodium salt is reacidified to the free diol acid and atorvastatin lactone is formed from the diol acid. The atorvastatin lactone is directly dried without further purification.
摘要:
A fishing rod holder (10) is disclosed having a spool assembly (16), a web (18), and a handle assembly (20). The web may be substantially prevented from moving when holding fishing rods in place by a web locking means (46). The web locking means may prevent the spool from turning or a web pinch may be employed, among other embodiments.
摘要:
Techniques for improving data rates at mobile terminals that are subject to periodic channel interruptions in a beyond-line-of-sight communication system are disclosed, including improved encoding and decoding systems that identify blockages and modify receiver operation during blockages to reduce data errors. In certain embodiments, encoding, symbol mapping, interleaving, and use of unique periodic identifiers function to enable a series of packets that may be received in a blockage impaired channel with reduced errors.

摘要:
The invention relates to use of a composition comprising an inhibitor of adenylyl cyclase in the elongation of circadian rhythm, a method of extending the period of circadian rhythm in a subject, said method comprising administering to said subject an inhibitor of adenylyl cyclase, and to adenylyl cyclase inhibitor for use in the treatment of a disorder of the circadian rhythm. Preferably the inhibitor is a P-site inhibitor, preferably 9-(tetrahydrofuryl)-adenine. The composition may further comprise a JNK inhibitor.
摘要:
An information capture, processing and retrieval (“ICPR”) system shared by multiple buyers, suppliers and workers concurrently and a method of operating the same. In one embodiment, the ICPR system includes an order documentation subsystem configured to document orders for the suppliers and the buyers with respect to the workers. Each of the orders specifies a different method of time capture for the workers assigned thereto. The ICPR system also includes a time capture subsystem configured to receive the different methods of time capture from the workers positioned in one of anchored and untethered locations assigned to the orders. In a related embodiment, the ICPR system further includes a time approval and buyer tagging subsystem configured to allow the buyers to label time worked by the workers corresponding to the buyers with one or more tags, thereby translating approved time of the workers into custom, internal terminology of the buyers.
