InactiveUS6849237B2Sacrificing abilityMonitor glucose levelImmobilised enzymesBioreactor/fermenter combinationsGlucose meter deviceHand held
A test apparatus having a base which performs a plurality of tests for different analytes in body fluids. A portable tester, such as a glucose meter, is detachably mounted to the base and provides a convenient and ergonomic hand-held instrument which a diabetic may carry to frequently monitor blood glucose levels. When mounted or docked to the base, the portable tester is data linked to the base. The invention provides a communications network among the base, the portable tester and another device such as a PC. The portable tester can therefore be kept small and inexpensive since advanced computing and data storage capabilities are provided in the base or a PC.

Self-grown monopoly compact grit
InactiveUS6616725B2Strong and more resilientProduced cost-effectivelyPigmenting treatmentOther chemical processesBoron nitrideSolvent
A self-grown monopoly compact grit and high pressure, high temperature process for preparing the same. The high pressure, high temperature sintered / synthesized monopoly compact grit is used in various industrial tools such as saw blades, grinding wheels, cutting tools and drill bits. Further, the monopoly compact grit of the present invention is produced from a seed of a mono-crystal of diamond or cubic boron nitride surrounded by either a self-grown crystal layer or an integrally bonded poly-crystalline sintered compact layer. The self-grown crystal layer is a new grown crystal structure where the seed crystal grows into a new phase through a normal diamond or cubic boron nitride synthesis process in the presence of a catalyst metal solvent. The compact layer is composed of about 50 to about 90 volume percent of diamond or cubic boron nitride, a typical binder material, which is a catalyst for crystal-to-crystal bonding, and a cementing agent which is a binding agent capable of forming stable carbide and nitride bonds.

Cable-stay cradle system
InactiveUS6880193B2Overcomes drawback and disadvantageEliminate needPipe supportsBridge structural detailsCable stayedBridge deck
A cable-stay cradle system (“cradle system”) for cable stayed bridges is mounted onto a cable stay, the opposite ends of which are attached to anchors on a bridge deck. The cradle system is disposed along the length of the cable stay and located in a pre-formed opening in a pylon. The cradle system includes axially spaced sleeve centering plates that have radially spaced holes through which the cable strands of the cable stay are threaded. The cradle system ensures that a distance from center-points of adjacent cable strands remains essentially constant along the entire length of the cradle system. The invention also provides a method of installing a cable stay including a cradle system, which includes the steps of threading the cable stay through the opening in the pylon so as to locate the cradle system in the opening, and attaching the cable stay to anchors on the bridge deck.

Turbine vane with divided turbine vane platform
InactiveUS20080298973A1Reduce leakageEasy to replaceEngine fuctionsBlade accessoriesTurbine bladeCooling fluid
A turbine vane with endwalls, wherein at least one endwall is formed from two or more sections configured such that the sections form releasable joints with a generally elongated airfoil of the turbine vane. The sections may be configured to both support the generally elongated airfoil and to establish cooling fluid flowpaths between the sections and the generally elongated airfoil to cool the aspects of the turbine vane proximate to the intersection of the endwalls and the generally elongated airfoil. In addition, the joints between the generally elongated airfoil and the sections may be formed from a connection system that enables forces to be transmitted from the generally elongated airfoil to the endwalls without creating stresses found in conventional turbine vane fillets at the intersection between the generally elongated airfoil and the endwalls.

Wireless reflective marker with internal light source
InactiveUS20060257204A1Cost effectiveOvercomes drawbackTraffic signalsRoad signsJet aeroplaneRoad surface
A marker for indicating boundaries or delineating traffic lanes in pavement such as roadways or airport runways is described. In an embodiment, the marker includes a high-strength plastic housing containing at least one retroreflective reflector, a light emitting diode (LED), at least one solar collector and a rechargeable battery. The retroreflective reflectors reflect light back to a light source, such as the headlights of a vehicle on a roadway or the light of an airplane on a runway. The LED can provide a light source that can be seen from greater viewing angles than the light reflected by the reflectors providing better visibility to operators of vehicles on curved roadways and allowing captains of airplanes to see the markers from the cockpit at closer range than if the markers used reflectors alone. In an embodiment, the marker also can include circuitry that controls the operation of the LED, the flow of current through the circuit and the charging of the battery.

A heavy-duty vehicle brake assembly with a sealing interface includes a brake shoe, which includes a shoe table mounted on a web and a brake lining mounted on the shoe table. The shoe table is coated with a zinc-rich coating to form the sealing interface between the brake lining and the shoe table. The sealing interface resists the formation of corrosion cells on the brake shoe table, which in turn reduces the build-up of significant rust between the brake shoe table and the brake shoe lining, thereby preventing cracking and potential dislodging of the lining, while also facilitating replacement of linings when they eventually wear. A method of constructing a heavy-duty vehicle brake assembly with a sealing interface is also provided.
