An antenna for generating electron spin radiation corresponding to a signal from a radio frequency communications device includes a substantially cylindrical conductor, a first spiral-wound flat inductor, a second spiral-wound flat inductor and a reactive element. The first spiral-wound flat inductor is wound in relation to the second spiral-wound flat inductor so that when a current flows from the first signal terminal to the second signal terminal, a first magnetic field is generated from the first spiral-wound flat inductor and a second magnetic field is generated from the second spiral-wound flat inductor. The first magnetic field is in an opposite direction from the second magnetic field. The substantially cylindrical conductor is disposed so as to intersect the first magnetic field and the second magnetic field. The antenna may also be used to receive electron spin radiation.

A seating device with a foldable table is provided. The seating device comprises a seat assembly mounted on a plurality of legs, a table and a support structure having first and second telescoping arm assemblies fixed in an angular relationship and selectively releasable clamp assemblies associated with the first and second telescoping arm assemblies allowing said telescoping arm assemblies to selectively rotate and move longitudinally. The movement of the table is restricted and released by releasable latches.

A pump housing that contains a pump that draws fuel from an underground storage tank containing fuel to deliver to fuel dispensers in a service station environment. The pump is coupled to a double-walled fuel pipe that carries the fuel from the pump to the fuel dispensers. The double-walled fuel piping contains an inner annular space that carries the fuel and an outer annular space that captures any leaked fuel from the inner annular space. The outer annular space is maintained through the fuel piping from the pump to the fuel dispensers so that the outer annular space can be pressurized by a pump to determine if a leak exists in the outer annular space or so that fuel leaked from the inner annular space can be captured by a leak containment chamber in the pump housing.

A method and apparatus for monitoring and determining fuel vapor recovery performance is disclosed. The dispensing of liquid fuel into a tank by a conventional gas pump nozzle naturally displaces a mixture of air and fuel ullage vapor in the tank. These displaced vapors may be recovered at the dispensing point nozzle by a vapor recovery system. A properly functioning vapor recovery system recovers approximately one unit volume of vapor for every unit volume of dispensed liquid fuel. The ratio of recovered vapor to dispensed fuel is termed the A/L ratio, which should ideally be approximately equal to one (1). The A/L ratio, and thus the proper functioning of the vapor recovery system, may be determined by measuring liquid fuel flow and return vapor flow (using a vapor flow sensor) on a nozzle-by-nozzle basis. The disclosed methods and apparatus provide for the determination of A/L ratios for individual nozzles using a reduced number of vapor flow sensors. The disclosed methods and apparatus also provide for the determination of fuel dispensing system vapor containment integrity, and the differentiation of true vapor recovery failures as opposed to false failures resulting from the refueling of vehicles provided with onboard vapor recovery systems.

A gate valve (2) comprising valve body (4, 6) and a gate element (8) movable to selectively interrupt a flow passage through the valve body (4, 6). The gate element (8) is supported for rotation in a correspondingly shaped recess (14) in the valve body (4, 6). In one embodiment rotation of the gate element (8) is effected by drive means comprising a first member (10) mounted for rotation in the valve body (4, 6) and a second member (12) mounted for rotation in the gate element (8), the first and second members (10, 12) being linked such that rotational movement of the first member (10) is translated into rotational movement of the gate element (8) by the second member (12). In an alternative embodiment rotation of the gate element (8) is effected by a toothed rack (82).

A reamer for preparing a spinal upper facet to facilitate insertion of combined screw/washer implant, preventing bone damage and facet weakening, and also allowing possibility to place grafting so as to maximize implant stabilization. The reamer has shallow outer cutting surfaces to cut a groove for spike insertion; deep inner cutting surfaces to cut a cortical-penetrating bore for insertion of the screw, and a flat therebetween to limit penetration of these cutting surfaces.

An end-of-zone or line sensor placed at the end of a secondarily contained fuel piping(s) or network(s). The interstitial space of the piping network is coupled to a vacuum-generating source that draws a vacuum level in the interstitial space to monitor for leaks or breaches in the piping network. The end-of-zone sensors are coupled to the interstitial space at the far end of the piping network and vacuum-generating source. The end-of-zone sensors actuate when a sufficient vacuum level is detected. A control system monitors the status of the end-of-zone switches. If the vacuum-generating source is activated to draw a vacuum level, and the end-of-zone sensors react to indicate the vacuum level has reached the sensor, the control system knows that there is no blockage over the entire span of the piping network, and thus entire piping network can be properly monitored for leaks.

A submersible turbine pump includes a power head enclosed in a casing. A vacuum source associated with the submersible turbine pump draws a vacuum in the interior space of the casing. A pressure sensor may be used to monitor the vacuum in the interior space to detect a leak in the power head or the casing. If a leak is detected, an alarm may be generated and the submersible turbine pump may be deactivated.
