20110297592 | OIL SOLUBLE ADDITIVE INJECTION APPARATUS - A lubricant additive dispensing apparatus comprising a base providing a manifold distribution to present lubricant to a series of dispensing chambers. The dispensing chambers are fabricated having a porous sidewall formed in a tubular shape. Additive is stored within a reservoir formed by the tubular shape. A delivery piston is provided proximate and in fluid communication with the manifold. The lubricant applies pressure to the delivery piston. The delivery piston applies pressure to the stored additive. The pressure forces a small volume of additive to pass through the porous sidewall, blending the additive with the flowing lubricant. The reservoir can be formed between an outer tubular member and an inner tubular member. Lubricant can pass through an interior of the inner tubular member, existing a flow discharge port located proximate an end cap assembled to a distal end of the reservoir. | 12-08-2011 |

20120042214 | METHOD FOR DETECTING THE IMPENDING ANALYTICAL FAILURE OF NETWORKED DIAGNOSTIC CLINICAL ANALYZERS - A method of detecting impending analytical failure in a networked diagnostic clinical analyzer is based upon detecting whether the operation of a particular analyzer is statistically distinguishable based on one or more thresholds. A failure occurs when one or more components or modules of the analyzer fails. A method to detect such an impending failure is disclosed. Baseline data on a pre-selected set of analyzer variables for a population of diagnostic clinical analyzers is used to generate an impending failure threshold. Subsequently, operational data comprising the same pre-selected set of analyzer variables allows generation of a time series of operational statistics. If the operational statistic exceeds the impeding failure threshold in a prescribed manner, an impending analytical failure is predicted. Such detection of impending analytical failures facilitates intelligent scheduling of service for the analyzer in question to maintain high assay throughput and accuracy. | 02-16-2012 |

20140300051 | NUMBER GAMES AND WORD GAMES - A number game in which the object is to match a player's score to a target number, including a playing surface with a plurality of numbers therein and operators on the outside of the playing surface which includes at least one moveable playing piece. Whenever a playing piece is moved to one of the numbers on the playing surface, the player's score is changed based on that number and according to the mathematical function of the operator towards which the playing piece was moved. One embodiment of the invention is a word game in which each of the numbers on the playing surface has an associated letter. Movement of the playing piece from number to number in this version of the game necessarily also means movement of the playing piece to the number's associated letter. Each single play consists of a single continuous movement of the playing piece from letter to letter in an attempt to form a word. A temporary score is tabulated for each single play. When the single play results in a valid word being formed, the temporary score is added to the player's score. | 10-09-2014 |
