摘要:
The present invention is directed to processes of separating, analyzing and/or collecting selected species within a target sample by use of magnetic microspheres including magnetic particles, the magnetic microspheres adapted for attachment to a receptor agent that can subsequently bind to selected species within the target sample. The magnetic microspheres can be sorted into a number of distinct populations, each population with a specific range of magnetic moments and different receptor agents can be attached to each distinct population of magnetic microsphere.

A method for fabricating a rotor shaft using a welding process. The method includes positioning a first rotor shaft section adjacent a second rotor shaft section, and using a submerged arc welding process with an included weld preparation angle of between about 0° and about 30° to join the first and second rotor shaft sections together.

Bucket tip tenons requiring refurbishment are removed from the bucket tips by grinding. Groups of buckets are clamped on a rotatable table in positions adjacent an induction heating coil and a robotic welding arm, respectively. While one group is preheated, the other group of buckets is in a welding location, enabling the welding head on the robotic arm to sequentially apply weld buildup material to the bucket tips. After applying weld buildup material in multiple passes and sequentially to the bucket tips, the buckets are removed, stress-relieved and the weld buildup material machined to provide refurbished tenons. Upon removal of the buckets from the table, the table is rotated to locate the preheated buckets in welding locations and additional buckets are clamped to the table for preheating.

A portable proximity alert detector is provided for a user to determine when at least one companion comes within a predetermined range of the user. The device includes a receiving portion for wirelessly receiving a first signal encoded with a code identifying a companion and a transmitting portion for wirelessly transmitting a second signal encoded with a user identifying code. The device also includes a processor, a modulator operationally coupling the processor to the transmitting portion for modulating the user identifying code, and a demodulator operationally coupling the processor to the receiving portion for demodulating the companion identifying code. A first memory segment is operationally coupled to the processor for storing companion identifying codes received by the receiving portion. A second memory segment is operationally coupled to the processor for storing companion identifying codes of companions whom the user desires to contact. A third memory segment operationally coupled to the processor for storing the user identifying code. A user interface is operationally coupled to the processor through which the companion identifying codes of the companions whom the user desires to contact are programmed into the second memory segment. An indicator is provided for alerting the user when at least one companion identifying codes received by the receiving portion matches one of the companion identifying codes stored in the second memory segment.

Techniques for handling exceptions are disclosed. In an embodiment, an exception-handling scheme supports an embedded system. An exception handler records information related to the exception. An intelligent recovery agent determines if the erroneous process should be terminated, recovered, etc. The recovery agent also determines the most efficient recovery method, etc. A post-exception analysis tool identifies the cause of the exception.

The present invention relates to composite ceramic membranes for use in chemical processes such as the separation of molecules, sometimes referred to as molecular sieving, preferably in combination with chemical conversion of molecules selected from a composition of different molecules, e.g. the selective partial or full oxidation. The composite membrane of the invention offers a combination of molecular sieving and oxygen transport that makes the composite membrane suitable for the selective oxidation of hydrocarbons from a feed comprising a mixture hydrocarbons. The composite membrane of the invention comprises a first layer containing an oxygen transporting material (OTM), e.g. perovskite, and, in association with the first layer, a second layer, containing a molecular sieve layer, e.g. a zeolite.
摘要:
A stub shaft section adapted to be welded to a re-used end portion of a rotor shaft, the stub shaft section including a hollow cylindrical member having a substantially uniform inner diameter and first chamfered end adapted to form one side of a substantially V-shaped weld groove, and an integral backing ring extending axially beyond the chamfered end, the backing ring having a circumferential recess in a radially outer surface thereof. A related method of replacing a stub shaft on an end of a rotor shaft comprising: (a) providing a new stub shaft with a first chamfered end and an integral backing ring; (b) aligning the first chamfered end with a second chamfered end on the rotor shaft, with the integral backing ring overlapping the second chamfered end, and with the first and second chamfered ends forming a substantially V-shaped weld groove, with the integral backing ring overlapping the second chamfered end; (c) filling the V-shaped groove with weld material; (d) welding the stub shaft to the rotor shaft; and (e) machining the integral backing ring away from the stub shaft.

Techniques are provided for assigning a device to a desired network. In one embodiment, the device is connected via a network switch to the network. A value of a configurable parameter corresponds to a data speed that would be used to transfer the data between the device and the network. To assign the device to the network, the value of the parameter corresponding to a desired speed is set in the network circuitry of the device. The network switch, interfaces with the device, detects the speed, and, based on this speed, assigns the device to a corresponding network. Additionally, the switch can assign the data duplex based on a value of a configurable duplex parameter set in the network circuitry.
