20120056352Method for Stabilizing Strip During Winding - A method is disclosed for winding a composite strip onto a spool having a hub in which the strip includes a plurality of laterally spaced apart lengthwise extending rib portions upstanding from the base portion. The method comprises the steps of feeding the strip towards the hub of the spool; driving the fed strip through a roller set so as to plastically deform the strip to give it a curved base portion; and winding the deformed strip onto the hub to form spooled strip, the winding creating tension in the strip. The plastic deformation of the strip through the roller set substantially reduces the tension in the strip that would otherwise occur.03-08-2012

20110205026RADIO FREQUENCY IDENTIFICATION READER ANTENNA HAVING A DYNAMICALLY ADJUSTABLE Q-FACTOR - Turning now to the drawings, systems and methods for reading RFID transponders utilizing readers in which the Q-factor of the resonant antenna of the reader shifts over the course of the reader's interrogation cycle in response to the detection of data from FDX and HDX RFID transponders in accordance with embodiments of the invention are illustrated. One embodiment having a dynamically adjustable Q-factor, wherein the reader transmits an activation signal configured to activate half duplex and full duplex transponders includes a signal source configured to drive a resonant antenna and a dynamic switching circuit configured to set the Q-factor of the resonant antenna to a first value during the transmission of the activation signal. In addition, the dynamic switching circuit is configured to set the Q-factor of the resonant antenna to a second value below the first value during and/or in response to detection of a data signal from a full duplex transponder, the dynamic switching circuit is also configured to set the Q-factor of the resonant antenna to a third value below the second value when the RFID reader is not transmitting the activation signal, and the resonant antenna is multi-filar and the dynamic switching circuit is configured to control the Q-factor of the multi-filar resonant antenna by controlling the filars that are incorporated into the resonant antenna circuit.08-25-2011
20110210823HDX DEMODULATOR - Low noise mixers for use in RFID readers and RFID readers configured to receive data from ISO HDX transponders in accordance with embodiments of the invention are illustrated. One embodiment of the invention receives the HDX FSK signal using a resonant antenna, upwardly mixes the FSK signal to an intermediate frequency, filters the intermediate frequency FSK signal using at least one ceramic bandpass filter, and demodulates the filtered intermediate frequency FSK signal to produce a binary output.09-01-2011

20090211750Stuffing Box Apparatus - A stuffing box apparatus for sealing between a polish rod in a hydrocarbon production well comprises a tubular housing arranged for connection to the well which has a bore therethrough to receive the polish rod. Sealing members are supported in the bore of the housing in an upper stack and a lower stack of smaller outer diameter separated by an intermediate bushing. An upper bushing compresses the upper stack against the intermediate bushing. The lower bushing fixes the lower stack against the bottom of the intermediate bushing. Each of the bushings includes a counter bore formed at one end which receives a wiper member arranged for sealing engagement between the bushing and the polish rod.08-27-2009

20120125336ADJUSTMENT OF VENTILATOR PRESSURE-TIME PROFILE TO BALANCE COMFORT AND EFFECTIVENESS - The invention is a ventilator whose servo-controller adjusts the degree of support by adjusting the profile of the pressure waveform as well as the pressure modulation amplitude. As the servo-controller increases the degree of support by increasing the pressure modulation amplitude, it also generates a progressively more square, and therefore efficient, pressure waveform; when the servo-controller decreases the degree of support by decreasing the pressure modulation amplitude, it also generates a progressively more smooth and therefore comfortable pressure waveform.05-24-2012

20100037895DETERMINING SUITABLE VENTILATOR SETTINGS FOR PATIENTS WITH ALVEOLAR HYPOVENTILATION DURING SLEEP - A method and apparatus for determining suitable settings for a servo-ventilator to be used during sleep. Respiratory characteristics of a patient are measured during an awake learning period. With these measured characteristics, a target ventilation setting may be calculated by alternative methods. The calculated setting may then be used for enforcing a minimum ventilation during a treatment period where ventilatory support is provided with a servo-controlled ventilator.02-18-2010

An arousal index is determined for use in an outer loop of a control algorithm, the arousal index being a measure of the frequency of sleep arousals. The respiratory airflow signal in an inner loop of the control algorithm is monitored to detect an airway obstruction. If the arousal index is high, then the sensitivity of obstruction detection and/or the aggressiveness of the treatment is increased, and if the arousal index is low, then the sensitivity of the obstruction detection and/or the aggressiveness of the treatment is decreased09-02-2010

20100171518Method and apparatus for non-destructive detection of defects in composite laminate structures - The present invention provides a probe apparatus and method as described below for use as a non-destructive testing (NDT) device to detect and locate structural flaws in a composite laminate. In preferred embodiments, the method includes measuring effective thermal conductivity (Ke) of the laminate using one contact surface, non-invasively. The device is preferably portable and battery-operated. The thermal conductivity method on which the device is based is much simpler to use than the known devices for NDT and allows the utilization of a direct correlation between thermal conductivity and mechanical strength in the case of polymer composites. The device may also be used for process control in manufacturing and monitoring materials in service.07-08-2010
