| 20110103715 | Bags of Life - A combination of shopping bags designed to be used instead of plastic carrier bags. The set start off as several slightly smaller subsidiary bags being carried in one main larger bag. The smaller bags collapse flat and fit within the larger bag. The front and back and bottom of all the bags are quite rigid, being lined with semi rigid/rigid material. The side panels are flexible and fold into the bag enabling the bag to easily collapse flat by pushing the bottom semi rigid/rigid panel up. The semi rigid/rigid section secured in the bottom of the bags flips up to allow them to fold flat. On filling, the bottom drops down to give the bag a boxy rigidity. When the bags are collapsed flat, they require no reshaping and they slide easily into the larger bag ready for reuse. | 05-05-2011 |

| 20080273995 | Apparatus for Inhibiting the Propagation of a Flame Front - Apparatus is described for inhibiting the propagation of a flame front ignited by a pumping mechanism drawing a waste stream from a process chamber. A combustion chamber comprises an inlet for receiving the waste stream exhaust from the pumping mechanism and means for generating a flame for burning a flammable component of the waste stream. A pressure detector detects a pressure at a location through which the waste stream is drawn by the pumping mechanism, and a flame detector detects the presence of a flame in th combustion chamber. A controller regulates the delivery of at least one process fluid to the process chamber if the detected pressure is greater than a pressure above which the flame front can be sustained by the waste stream, or if there is no flame present in the combustion chamber. | 11-06-2008 |
| 20090104353 | Apparatus For Treating A Gas Stream - In a method of inhibiting the deposition of aluminium within a vacuum pump during the pumping from a process chamber of a gas stream containing an organoaluminium precursor, chlorine is supplied to the gas stream upstream of the vacuum pump to react with the precursor to form aluminium chloride, which can pass harmlessly through the pump in its vapour phase. | 04-23-2009 |
| 20090208649 | Vacuum Pumping System - A vacuum pumping system comprises a primary foreline for receiving a gas stream from an outlet of a chamber, a first vacuum pump for evacuating the chamber, a second vacuum pump for evacuating the chamber, a first secondary foreline for conveying gas from the primary foreline to the first vacuum pump, a second secondary foreline for conveying gas from the primary foreline to the second vacuum pump, and valve means for selectively connecting a chosen one of the first and second secondary forelines to the primary foreline. The condition of the vacuum pumps is monitored during use. When both vacuum pumps are operating normally, the valve means is controlled to divert a first reactant-rich gas from the primary foreline into the first secondary foreline, and to divert a second reactant-rich gas from the primary foreline to the second secondary foreline, thereby inhibiting mixing of the first and second reactants within the vacuum pumps. However, in the event that the condition of one of the vacuum pumps indicates that one of the pumps is likely to fail during a current process within the chamber, the valve means is controlled to divert both the first reactant-rich gas and the second reactant-rich gas to the other vacuum pump, thereby preventing the potentially costly loss of a batch of substrates within the chamber. | 08-20-2009 |
| 20090301740 | Apparatus and method for inhibiting propagation of a flame front - Apparatus and a method are provided for inhibiting the propagation of a flame front that is ignited by a pumping mechanism which draws a waste stream from a process chamber. The apparatus comprises a foreline for conveying the waste stream which is drawn from the process chamber to the pumping mechanism. The foreline comprises an isolation valve for selectively isolating the pumping mechanism from the process chamber and a bypass positioned around the isolation valve. The apparatus further comprises a controller for actuating the isolation valve. The controller is configured to cause the isolation valve to be closed when the waste stream is initially drawn from the process chamber. During which time the waste stream is conveyed to the pumping mechanism via the bypass, the bypass comprises means for inhibiting propagation of a flame front therethrough. The controller is also configured to cause the isolation valve to be opened once a pressure within a region upstream of the isolation valve has been reduced below a value at which propagation of a flame front within the waste stream can be sustained. | 12-10-2009 |

| 20110017140 | METHOD OF TREATING A GAS STREAM - A method is described of treating a gas stream exhausted from an atomic layer deposition (ALD) process chamber to which two or more gaseous precursors are alternately supplied. Between the process chamber and a vacuum pump used to draw the gas stream from the chamber, the gas stream is conveyed to a gas mixing chamber, to which a reactant is supplied for reacting with one of the gaseous precursors to form solid material. The gas stream is then conveyed to a cyclone separator to separate solid material from the gas stream. By deliberately reacting a non-reacted precursor to form solid material upstream from the pump, reaction within the pump of the non-reacted precursor and a second non-reacted precursor subsequently drawn from the chamber by the pump can be inhibited. | 01-27-2011 |

| 20120128475 | Vortex Enhanced Wind Turbine Diffuser - A diffuser for a wind turbine where slots in said diffuser wall entrain air to enter into the diffuser with a swirl that is counter to the internal swirl created as a reaction to the turbine blades rotation as it extracts power such that the internal swirl and the externally introduced swirl cross over each other thereby causing vortices to form between them that energizes the internal flow and helps to prevent it from separating from the internal duct wall. Such a diffuser would beneficially consist of a radial array of repeated segments each comprising a radial portion of a duct with a wing emerging from behind said duct leading edge and spiraling out and backwards and connecting back onto the wing of the next segment round such that each segment's wing connects to the trailing neighboring segment wing just as the leading neighbors wing connects onto it, and that a gap is left between the spiral arms to permit external air to flow between the trailing edge of one segment wing and the leading edge of the adjacent wing. | 05-24-2012 |

| 20120014794 | AUTOMATIC PITCH CONTROL FOR HORIZONTAL AXIS WIND TURBINES - A self setting and self powered system for adjusting the blade angles of a wind turbine such that they have a high angle of attack when parked to promote early start up, move to their ideal setting angle for normal running, can respond to gusts and lulls with appropriate changes, and feathers the blades to limit the rpm and reduce loads in storm conditions. The system balances the thrust loads on the turbine against centripetal forces generated by masses reacting to the rpm, increasing the blade pitch with gusts to increase torque and hence rotational acceleration and reducing blade pitch in lulls to conserve rotational momentum, and uses springs to establish the starting position and the rpm limit appropriate for the generator mechanism. | 01-19-2012 |

| 20090326865 | Rapid Data-Based Data Adequacy Procedure for Pipeline Integrity Assessment - A method and system for evaluating the sample coverage of ultrasonic or radiography (UT/RT) measurements of pipeline wall thickness for statistical validity. A data library contains distributions of in-line inspection (ILI) measurements for other pipelines, calibrated to correspond to UT/RT measurements as needed. The data library for these ILI-measured pipelines also includes statistics generated from Monte Carlo simulation, by way of which various sample coverage levels sample the ILI measurements, for determining whether a measurement exceeds a given threshold or meets another premise related to determining the extreme wall loss measurement for the pipeline. A pipeline with sampled UT/RT measurements is used to identify one or more ILI-measured pipeline datasets that are most similar, and the statistics from those most similar pipeline datasets determine whether the sample coverage of the UT/RT measurements is sufficient to draw conclusions about the extreme value of wall loss in the sampled pipeline. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20100030491 | Estimating Worst Case Corrosion in a Pipeline - A method and system for estimating the worst case corrosion in a pipeline for which pipeline wall thickness measurements are limited to sampled ultrasonic or radiography (UT/RT) measurements. A data library contains distributions of in-line inspection (IL) measurements for other pipelines, calibrated to correspond to UT/RT measurements as needed. These ILI datasets are randomly sampled multiple times, to obtain multiple sample sets from each ILI dataset. Candidate statistical distributions are evaluated for each sample set to determine which of the candidate statistical distributions most accurately estimates the worst case corrosion measured by ILI. A discriminant function is then derived from sample statistics and pipeline descriptors associated with the sample sets, along with the best candidate statistical distribution for that sample set. Sample statistics and pipeline descriptors for the pipeline with sampled UT/RT measurements are then applied to the discriminant function to determine the best one of the candidate statistical distributions for extreme value estimation, and the worst case corrosion is then determined using that best statistical distribution. | 02-04-2010 |
