A method and apparatus for depositing a coating material on a surface of a substrate by an ion plasma deposition process using a hollow cathode is disclosed. The cathode may be a substantially cylindrical hollow cathode. A plasma arc is formed on the outer circumference of the cathode to remove coating material from the cathode, which is then deposited on a surface of a substrate. An internal arc drive magnet is contained within the hollow bore of the cathode and cooling is provided to the magnet during operation.

An injector assembly for delivering flowable material to a medical implant, including a tube having a first end and a second end, a connector member and a port connector, where the connector member is coupled to the first end of the tube and the port connector is coupled to the second end of the tube, the connector member being configured to attach to a material delivery mechanism and the port connector being configured to attach to the medical implant. When the material delivery mechanism is actuated, the flowable material passes through the tube to the medical implant. A method of using an injector assembly to deliver a flowable material to a medical implant and bone surface is also described. A kit containing various sized parts for an injector assembly is also described.

Driver's Blind Spot Terminator comprises a three-piece sun shield which is easily secured to an existing automobile sun visor and filters the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays, thus eliminating blind spots comprising interchangeable and fully adjustable sun shields which are secured to the vehicle sun visor by way of a flexible support arm. Each sun shield is a geometrically shaped unit manufactured of optical glass or shatterproof material. The first shield comprises a clear, polarized lens designed to filter the sun's harmful ultra violet rays. The second shield is tinted in any number of hues including blue, and other embodiments in gray and green respectfully. This shield is designed to provide shady comfort while also blocking the sun's rays. The third shield is an amber colored shield designed for use during foggy or snowy conditions.

A system for restoring or regenerating an article, such as turbine blade or vane for a gas turbine engine, includes a first cathode and a second cathode operably disposed in a deposition chamber. The first cathode includes a first deposition material substantially similar in composition to the material of a residual substrate. The second cathode includes a second deposition material able to form an environmental coating on a restored/regenerated component. The first and second cathodes may be sequentially operated without interrupting the vacuum conditions in the deposition chamber. A method for restoring or regenerating an article includes utilizing the first cathode to deposit a layer of first deposition material onto the residual substrate and subsequently applying the environmental coating utilizing a common deposition chamber, and without interrupting the vacuum conditions between depositions.

An assembly for connecting two adjacent liquid collection basins is provided. The assembly includes a flume for connecting a first liquid collection basin to a second liquid collection basin. The flume comprises a generally rectangular structure having a top section, bottom section and two side sections, with an inward flange along one side of the flume and an outward flange along an opposite side of the flume. The flume is inserted through an opening in a wall of the first collection basin, through an opening in the wall of the second collection basin and affixed to each wall, in some embodiments with the use of a support frame.

A casting system and method for producing a metal casting is provided. The metal casting can comprise a fine-grain, homogeneous microstructure that is essentially oxide- and sulfide-free, segregation defect free, and essentially free of voids caused by air entrapped during solidification of the metal from a liquidus state to a solid state. The casting system can comprise an electroslag refining system; a nucleated casting system; and a cooling system that cools the metal casting so as to cool a liquidus portion of the metal casting. The metal casting is cooled in a manner sufficient to provide a microstructure that comprises a fine-grain, homogeneous microstructure that is essentially oxide- and sulfide-free, segregation defect free, and essentially free of voids caused by air entrapped during solidification from a liquidus state to a solid state.
