A compressed gas powered gun provides recoil simulating the recoil of a gun firing gunpowder propelled projectiles. The valve assembly provides both consistent shot to shot pressure, and rearward gas pressure for generating recoil. Preferred embodiments of the compressed gas powered gun may include a mechanism for adjusting the amount of recoil provided. A trigger mechanism permitting semi-automatic operation, or full automatic operation at a user selectable cyclic rate, is provided. The air gun provides consistent gas pressure behind the projectile from shot to shot. A magazine and magazine indexing system for loading projectiles into the firing chamber in a manner contributing to the accuracy of the air gun is also provided.

An improved vacuum drilling system and drill bit includes a generally hollow vacuum drill bit with one or more chip inlets arranged proximate to one or more cutting surfaces. The drill bit also includes grooves along its exterior. When the drill bit is guided by a bushing or guide hole, the grooves serve to reduce the friction therebetween. The grooves can also convey air for cooling and improved chip collection.

A method and apparatus for use with a mobile body navigation system are provided for reducing an amount of position data, expressing successive positions along a route that has been traversed by a mobile body, which are recorded by a data recording section to subsequently provide a route display or are transmitted by radio by a data transmitting section. A position recording judgement section uses one or more judgement criteria to obtain an indication of the degree of accuracy of each of the vehicle positions that are calculated by the navigation system, and enables recording or transmission of only those data that express positions for which the judgement criteria indicate that the corresponding degree of accuracy is sufficiently high.

An acoustic transmitter with preferably a plurality of piezoelectric plates configured to optimized acoustic pressure output within a desired frequency range while meeting physical restrictions of LWD and MWD logging systems. The transmitter is disposed in a recess in the perimeter of a logging tool housing to reduce acoustic pressure waves transmitted directly along the tool housing and to optimize acoustic energy transmission into the borehole environs. In order to increase acoustic pressure output at a desired logging frequency range, the plurality of piezoelectric plates are connected electrically in parallel and fired simultaneously. The polarity of the plates and the wiring arrangement are such that each plate expands or contracts in a common direction during simultaneous firing by an applied voltage. The desired output frequency is obtained by selectively polarizing and dimensioning the plates within the plate assembly. The plate assembly is preferably disposed within an oil filled pressure housing that is pressure and temperature compensated.

The invention is a cable tensiometer that can be used on aircraft for real-time, in-flight cable tension measurements. The invention can be used on any aircraft cables with high precision. The invention is extremely light-weight, hangs on the cable being tested and uses a dual bending beam design with a high mill-volt output to determine tension.

A monopole acoustic transmitter with at least one disc assembly with a plurality of piezoelectric discs configured to optimized acoustic pressure output within a desired frequency range while meeting physical restrictions of LWD and MWD logging systems. The transmitter is disposed in a recess or “slot” in the perimeter of a logging tool housing to reduce acoustic pressure waves transmitted directly along the tool housing and to optimize acoustic energy transmission into the borehole environs. In order to increase acoustic pressure output at a desired logging frequency range, the plurality of piezoelectric discs in each of at least one disc assembly are connected electrically in parallel and fired simultaneously. The polarity of the discs and the wiring arrangement are such that each disc expands or contracts in a common direction during simultaneous firing by an applied voltage. The desired output frequency is obtained by selectively polarizing and dimensioning the discs within the one or more disc assemblies. Each disc assembly is preferably disposed within an oil filled pressure housing that is pressure and temperature compensated. The axis of the at least one disc assembly can be parallel or perpendicular to the major axis of the logging tool.

The present invention relates to a method for titration comprising guiding a sample to be titrated through a conduit, adding a reagent to said conduit at at least two entrance positions along said conduit in such a manner that said reagent will react with the sample within at least one individual sector of the conduit, defined as the space between two consecutive entrance positions or a final individual sector defined between a final entrance position and a sample exit point of the conduit, while at least one detection device positioned at the end of each sector of said conduit register the chemical and/or physical status. A pressure difference is provided between the reagent delivery device and the sample conduit such that the pressure difference measured between the reagent delivery device and the end of the final individual sector is controlled to be greater than the total pressure drop between the sample delivery point and the end of the final individual sector. The invention further relates to an arrangement for carrying out said method.

A method for detecting a beacon signal, by receiving a beacon signal and processing the beacon signal with respect to a local copy of the beacon signal. The processing including multiplying the beacon signal with a local copy of the beacon signal and integrating the result to generate a background noise filtered beacon signal output. The beacon signal output may be utilized to align an antenna with the beacon signal by adjusting alignment until the beacon signal output is either maximized or minimized, depending upon the function applied.

A method and system for determining a wait time (t_w) to be used between successive transmissions of packets of a content to achieve a selected target bandwidth B_T for the transmission. The wait time between successive packets of a content being transmitted is determined as a function of the selected target bandwidth (B_T) to be achieved during the transmission and the size (P) of the packets based on the algorithm

The invention provides bandwidth control at the source (the sending device) without relying on network Quality of Service (QoS) facilities.

The present invention provides a segmented pitch ring for use in a blade pitch system of a wind turbine. The segmented pitch ring is formed of a plurality of segments manufactured by different processes. In particular, one or more of the segments are formed by a rolling process, and one or more of the segments are formed by a casting process. The segments are arc-shaped or include arc-shaped sections that in combination define a substantially circular circumference of the pitch ring.
