摘要:
A device and method for protecting D.C. powered electronic equipment to be isolated from a D.C. marine power source for minimizing the interference of extraneous signals on the power signals along with a back-up D.C. power source for powering the electronic equipment in the event of the loss of operative power signals from the D.C. source. The device may include a remote indicator for signalling the marine vessel operator that the electronic equipment is being powered from the back-up power source and not the main power source.

Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods and computer program products for processing readable indicia for targeted data extraction and interaction manipulation. The invention receives an alternative interaction request from a user over a network that indicates the user's interest in a resource provided by a first entity at a first entity location. The invention generates tailored alternative interactions for the user based on selectively extracted interaction and resource data procured from competing entity systems. The alternative interactions are transmitted to the user in real-time, wherein at least some of the alternative interactions are not associated with the first entity. The user accepts or denies the one or more alternative interactions to trigger an interaction completion process on an entity system. Additionally, the invention may interrupt an in progress interaction to provide a user with alternative interactions before the in progress interaction can be completed.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a lubricating composition containing an oil of lubricating viscosity and a star polymer that has at least two inner blocks, at least one of which is in turn bonded to one or more outer blocks. The invention further relates to methods of lubricating a mechanical device with the lubricating composition.
摘要:
The present invention provides a process for preparing a polymer, employing the steps of: (1) contacting a free radical initiator; a chain transfer agent containing a thiocarbonyl thio group and a free radical leaving group; and a radically polymerisable monomer, to form a polymer chain; and (2) contacting the polymer chain of step (1) with at least one of a polyvalent coupling agent, a polymerization inhibitor, a grafting acylating agent, an amine and an oil of lubricating viscosity. The invention further provides compositions and uses for the polymer.
摘要:
The present invention provides a lubricating composition comprising: (a) an oil of lubricating viscosity; and (b) a crosslinked polymer derived from monomers comprising: (i) 0.001 wt % to 7 wt % of a di- or higher functional crosslinking monomer; (ii) 30 wt % or higher of a hydrocarbyl-substituted (meth)acrylic monomer, wherein each hydrocarbyl contains greater than 8 carbon atoms; and (iii) 0 wt % to 40 wt % of a hydrocarbyl-substituted (meth)acrylic monomer, wherein each hydrocarbyl contains 8 or fewer carbon atoms. The invention further provides a method of preparing the crosslinked polymer and its use in a lubricating composition for lubricating an internal combustion engine.
摘要:
A dual-aperture barcode scanner with tether-free housing. The scanner includes vertical portion including switches and a housing adjacent to but separated from the switches.
摘要:
A facial quality paper usable with a center feed roll dispenser. The paper has a plurality of perforations for permitting detachment of paper sections from the loose paper end of the roll. A linear density of six perforations or less per inch are formed along the detachment line to facilitate detachment of each paper section without permitting premature detachment of the paper section within the center feed roll dispenser. Alternatively, control over the separation strength is provided by one or more perforations comprising less than seventy percent of the base line. Separation control is provided by the number or perforations per linear inch, by the total ratio of perforations versus paper along the detachment base line, or by the perforation shape 1.
摘要:
Described are several preferred acid salts and complexes of N,N-dimethylpyridine (DMAP) and 4-(4-methyl-1-piperidinyl)pyridine (MPP) which are useful as curing agents or as accelerators in preferred epoxy resin curing processes. Also described are particularly preferred processes for forming cured epoxy resin materials which are advantageously employed in large production line scale operations, and curable coating compositions.
摘要:
A safety helmet for vehicular use constructed of two superimposed shells to take advantage of the physical properties of each of the materials for the shells and cancel out any disadvantages. The shells preferably are constructed of different plastic materials such as a fiberglass reinforced plastic and a tough plastic such as a polycarbonate.
摘要:
The invention provides a composition comprising: (a) a star polymer comprising: (i) a core portion comprising a polyvalent (meth)acrylic monomer, oligomer or polymer thereof or a polyvalent divinyl non-acrylic monomer, oligomer or polymer thereof; and (ii) at least two arms of polymerized alkyl(meth)acrylate ester; and (b) an oil of lubricating viscosity, wherein the core portion further comprises a functional group of formula (I): —CH2—C(R1)(C(═O)A)-Y— (I) wherein R1 is hydrogen, a linear or branched alkyl group containing 1 to 5 carbon atoms; A is nitrogen or oxygen; and Y is a free radical leaving group selected from the group consisting of one or more atoms or groups of atoms which may be transferred by a radical mechanism under the polymerization conditions, a halogen, an —O—N═ group and an —S—C(═S)— group. The invention further provides the use of the composition in an oil of lubricating viscosity as a dispersant, a viscosity modifier or a precursor to a dispersant viscosity modifier.
