摘要:
A portable wireless andon communication system and method for use in manufacturing, assembly and other industrial settings. A transmitter station and receiver station are set up for immediate use by simply connecting each to a standard power source. A user needing assistance manually activates a switch at the transmitter station, thus turning on a light and transmitting a corresponding signal to the receiver station. The receiver station receives the signal and turns on a corresponding light and tone generator. The tone generator and light alert indicate to the proper parties the request for a response. A responding party scans transmitter stations for the corresponding light and provides assistance. The switch may be a sensor activated by a change in state indicating that assistance is required. The portable system is easily reconfigured if necessitated by layout changes in a manufacturing line.

A window position detection and anti-pinch system and method for detecting the presence of an obstruction between a window and window frame of a door assembly of a vehicle is disclosed. The system includes at least one sensing device disposed adjacent the window detecting the position of the window in the window frame and generating an output representative of the detected position of the window. A controller responsive to the output generated by the at least one sensing device compares the window position signal output against predetermined values to determine window position and whether an obstruction exists between the window and window frame.

This invention is a device for orally directing air while wearing an air mask. In the invention, a tube extends from outside the air mask, through the air mask, and into the mask wearer's mouth. The tube is fitted with means to seal its passage through the mask and may also include a one-way valve to prevent aspiration through it. In a preferred embodiment, the invention is manufactured separately from an air mask and may be reused after the air mask becomes worn out.

Multimodal optical spectroscopy systems and methods produce a spectroscopic event to obtain spectroscopic response data from biological tissue, either ex vivo or in vivo, and compare the response data with a model configured to correlate the measured response data and the most probable attributes of the tissue, thus facilitating classification of the tissue based on those attributes.
摘要:
A system for the wireless activation or deactivation of one or more switches associated with one or more communication indicators within an industrial or professional working environment. The system includes at least one portable, handheld transmitter comprising at least one manually operated switch and a signal transmitter. Further included is at least one fixed indicator assembly comprising a signal receiver, at least one automatically operational switch, and at least one indicator capable of audibly or visually communicating a condition to workers within the industrial or professional working environment. The wireless indicator switch system is a highly flexible combination of a lightweight, small key fob type transmitter paired with a flexible receiver circuit board for controlling a variety of industrial and/or professional working environment indication devices. The wireless indicator switch will allow the indication device to be placed at its optimal location while allowing the worker to remain at their location and still activate the device. With the key fob sized transmitter, for example, the operator can easily activate an indicator light without leaving the work station.
摘要:
A production facility utilizes a first high pressure separation zone, a second intermediate pressure separation zone, a first distillation zone, and a second distillation zone, where the vapor fraction from the second intermediate pressure separation zone and the overhead stream from the first distillation column are recompressed to about the first high pressure. Such a process can produce specification residue gas streams, natural gas liquid streams, and a stabilized condensate stream.

A tetrahedron shaped pipe section core connector and an optional end connector that enable the quick fabrication of a stable tripod base with a stable post support. The core connector is made by machining, molding, casting, or forging the material from which the pipe connector is constructed (typically metal or plastic). The core component (hereinafter the “knuckle connector”) provides four pipe connections oriented at 109.5° angles to each other, forming a regular tetrahedron shape. Pipe sections may be screwed or press fit into each of the four pipe connections. Three of these fitted pipes may be oriented to form a tripod base. The remaining pipe connection extends vertically up to form a post support. The body of the knuckle connector optionally incorporates one or more smaller apertures, preferably threaded, that extend through the wall of the body of the connector. These apertures provide attachment points for ancillary components.
