摘要:
It has been discovered that a mechanical flotation system (10) having only two cells (18, 20) can be nearly as efficient as one having more cells, yet provide an apparatus with a considerably smaller footprint, significantly reduced capital and operating costs, as well as be resistant to floating oil recovery platform wave effects. The dual-cell mechanical flotation system (10) has, in sequential order, an inlet chamber (16) and two gasification chambers or cells (18, 20), each with at least one gas ingestion and mixing mechanism (32), and a discharge chamber (24). A common primary skim collection channel (40) atop the partition (44) dividing the gasification chambers (18, 20) efficiently channels away the bulk of the floating collected matter. At least one baffle (60) depending from the top of the vessel (12) near the primary skim collection channel (40) helps dampen the action of the fluid containing the suspended matter when the vessel (12) is affected by wave motion against the floating oil production platform. The liquid or froth levels (50, 66, and 76) can be intermittently raised for collection or otherwise lowered during periods of excessive turbulence (e.g. pitch or roll) to prevent clarified liquid from being collected with suspended matter.

It has been discovered that a mechanical device may be used to effectively displace a first undesired gas from within a liquid with a second desired or at least inert gas. The device is a vessel that receives the liquid containing the first gas and passes the liquid through a series of gasification chambers. Each gasification chamber has at least one mechanism that ingests and mixes a second gas into the liquid thereby physically displacing at least a portion of the first gas into a vapor space at the top of each gasification chamber from which it is subsequently removed. There is an absence of communication between the vapor spaces of adjacent chambers. The ingesting and mixing mechanisms may be a dispersed air flotation mechanism, and may be a conventional depurator. The liquid now containing the second gas and very little or none of the first gas is removed from the vessel for use.

An active network system for a host device with a host processor, comprises a wireless port including a first physical layer/medium access control (PHY/MAC) device. A first wired port includes a second PHY/MAC device. A secondary processor communicates with the wireless port, the first wired port and the host processor. The secondary processor, the wireless port and the first wired port support network functionality when the host processor is an inactive mode. The network functionality includes at least one of access point functionality, router functionality, repeater functionality, point-to-point functionality and point-to-multipoint functionality.

A method and system for automatically analyzing graphics processing unit (“GPU”) test results are disclosed. Specifically, one embodiment of the present invention sets forth a method, which includes the steps of identifying the GPU test results associated with a first register type, creating a template document associated with the same first register type, wherein the template document is pre-configured to store and operate on the GPU test results of the first register type, filling the GPU test results in the template document, aggregating the GPU test results associated with the first register type to establish a common output, and determining a suitable register value from a passing range of register values based on the common output without human intervention.

A mediation server (30) includes a second request receiving unit (35) that receives first store information for identifying a store visited by a user as a visited store and second store information for identifying a designated store designated as a place to purchase an item recognized by the user at the visited store from a mobile terminal (10) of the user, a response information generating unit (36) that compares the first and second store information and determines whether the visited store and the designated store match, and generates bargaining information indicating a specified service offered for the item by the visited store when the two stores do not match, and a response information transmission unit (37) that transmits the generated bargaining information to the mobile terminal (10).
摘要:
A system for the accelerated re-provisioning of data over cable service interface specification (DOCSIS) configuration files between a DOCSIS provisioning server and a plurality of network nodes that are configured according to the DOCSIS configuration files is provided. The system includes: a memory; and a caching entity configured to monitor transmissions from the provisioning server of the configuration files to the network nodes so as to both store the configurations files in the memory and to pass-through the configuration files to the network nodes; the caching entity being further configured to monitor requests to the provisioning server for respective ones of the DOCSIS configuration files from the network nodes, the caching entity being further configured to determine for each of the requests whether the requested configuration file has been previously requested node such that if the caching entity determines that the requested configuration file has been previously requested the caching entity retrieves the previously requested configuration file from the memory and returns the retrieved-from-memory configuration file to the network node.

An exercise apparatus includes a machine body, a transmission device, and a resistance adjusting device. The transmission device is operably disposed on the machine body and includes a rotatable resistance load. The resistance adjusting device includes an adjusting member operably disposed on the machine body, a retarding member connected to the adjusting member and disposed to be brought into contact with the resistance load for retarding rotation of the resistance load, and a force sensor that is disposed between the adjusting member and the retarding member and that is operable to generate a sensor output dependent upon resistance to rotation of the resistance load applied by the retarding member as a result of operating the adjusting member.
