| 20080209885 | SCAVENGING PHOSPHORUS, SULFUR, AND LEAD FROM COMBUSTION EXHAUST USING TUNGSTEN COMPOUNDS AND LUBRICANT - The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for delivering tungsten into a fuel combustion system or to the exhaust therefrom. By the present invention, tungsten from the lubricant or the fuel will interact with combustion products and, in particular, phosphorus, sulfur, and/or lead from the combustion products. In this manner, the tungsten scavenges or inactivates harmful materials which have migrated into the fuel or combustion products, and which can otherwise poison catalytic converters, sensors and/or automotive on-board diagnostic devices. The present invention can also lead to improved durability of exhaust after treatment systems. A lubricant in accordance with the present invention is also disclosed | 09-04-2008 |
| 20080223018 | SUPPLYING TUNGSTEN TO A COMBUSTION SYSTEM OR COMBUSTION SYSTEM EXHAUST STREAM CONTAINING IRON - The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for delivering tungsten from a to a fuel combustion system or to the exhaust therefrom. By the present invention, tungsten from the lubricant or the fuel will interact with iron from the combustion process. In this manner, the tungsten scavenges or inactivates iron that can otherwise poison catalytic converters, sensors and/or automotive on-board diagnostic devices and/or reduce the operation of spark plugs. The present invention can also lead to improved durability of exhaust after treatment systems. Supplying tungsten acts to change the characteristics of iron deposits formed by combusting a fuel with iron. | 09-18-2008 |

| 20100229343 | Fastener Means - A fastener means comprises a body member including a receiving portion longitudinally formed therein, two clamping portions transversely extending from the receiving portion and two through-hole provided the clamping portions, respectively; a joint member coupled to the clamping portions of the body member in a pivotal manner including a cam portion defined on the distal of a second end of the joint member and a fixed hole provided through a second end transversely and correspond to the through-holes wherein the joint member is moveable between an unfolding position and a folding position; the cam portion restricts a pivot angle of the joint member as the joint member in the unfolding position; and a fixing member installed onto the clamping portions opposite to the joint member, with the fixing member selectively inserted into the through-holes and the fixed hole for fixing the joint member with respect to the support means. | 09-16-2010 |
| 20100229355 | Clamping Device - A clamping device includes a holding member which includes a space for allowing an item to be disposed therein, and a tightening mechanism which is operable to make the holding member clamp the item in the holding member. The space is varied in size depending upon the external diameter of the clamped item. Additionally, the tightening mechanism is provided for enabling a satisfactory securing condition for any sizes of items. | 09-16-2010 |
| 20100237213 | Hanger Means - A hanger means comprises a body member including two hanging ends, a pivoted portion between the hanging ends and two slide rails provided between the pivoted portion and hanging ends respectively; a fastener unit coupled to the pivoted portion for positioning the body member in a horizontal direction; two slide members respectively slideably disposed on the slide rails, with each slide member including a first receiving groove inserted by the related slide rail and a second receiving groove; and two hook members pivotally coupled to the slide members respectively, with a longitudinal direction of each hook member being perpendicular to the ground. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20100243849 | Telescopically Adjustable Support Brace - A telescopically adjustable support brace includes a first member and a second member operably moveable with respect to the first member in a telescopic manner. The first and second members are adapted to be positioned across two objects for maintaining a fixed distance therebetween. A quick-clamping device includes a collar moveably engaged in the first member and a quick-release device for selectively clutching the collar to the second member, and when the collar is clutched to the second member, the second member is adapted to be moved with respect to the first member by the collar. Further, an adjusting device is operable to move the collar with respect to the first member and the collar is thereafter adapted to move the second member with respect to the first member. | 09-30-2010 |
