| 20110226503 | GAS INSULATED BUSBAR PARTICLE TRAP - A particle trap for a gas-insulated busbar (GIB) for high-voltage transmission systems. The particle trap is a circumferential cavity located and formed integral with a flanged end of the GIB's enclosure. In operation, particles present in a space between a central conductor and the enclosure of the GIB are guided to the particle trap by the presence of an electric field which exists between the central conductor and the grounded enclosure, and by the influences of gravity, mechanical vibration and gas flow. Once the particles enter the trap, the particles are immobilized. | 09-22-2011 |

| 20100013615 | Obstacle detection having enhanced classification - A method and system for sensing an obstacle comprises transmitting an electromagnetic signal from a mobile machine to an object. A reflected electromagnetic signal is received from the object to determine a distance between the object and the mobile machine. An image patch is extracted from a region associated with the object. Each image patch comprises coordinates (e.g., three dimensional coordinates) associated with corresponding image data (e.g., pixels). If an object is present, image data may include at least one of object density data and object color data. Object density data is determined based on a statistical measure of variation associated with the image patch. Object color data based on the color of the object detected with brightness normalization. An object is classified or identified based on the determined object density and determined object color data. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20110066262 | Apparatuses, Systems, and Methods for Apparatus Operation and Remote Sensing - A method and system for controlling an apparatus including receiving data indicative of an actual state of the apparatus, defining a first viewpoint relative to at least one of the environment and the apparatus, determining a first predicted state of the apparatus at time T, determining a first predicted state of the environment at time T, producing a first virtualized view from the first viewpoint, sending a first control signal to the apparatus after producing the first virtualized view, defining a second viewpoint relative to at least one of the apparatus and the environment, determining a second predicted state of the apparatus at time T+delta T, determining a second predicted state of the environment at time T+delta T, producing the second virtualized view from the second viewpoint, sending a second control signal to the apparatus after producing the second virtualized view, and changing the actual state of the apparatus based on the first control signal. | 03-17-2011 |

| 20080196855 | PRESS SECTION AND PERMEABLE BELT IN A PAPER MACHINE - A permeable belt, a belt press including a roll having an exterior surface and the permeable belt, and a method of drying or pressing a web with the permeable belt. The permeable belt can be tensioned to at least 30 KN/m. A side of the permeable belt has an open area of at least approximately 25% and a contact area of at least approximately 25%. This Abstract is not intended to define the invention disclosed in the specification, nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. | 08-21-2008 |
| 20080210397 | Press Section and Permeable Belt in a Paper Machine - A belt press for a paper machine, the belt press including a roll having an exterior surface and a permeable belt. The permeable belt has a first side and is guided over a portion of the exterior surface of the roll. The permeable belt has a tension of at least approximately 30 KN/m, the first side has an open area of at least approximately 25% and a contact area of at least approximately 10%. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20090165979 | ADVANCED DEWATERING SYSTEM - System for drying a tissue or hygiene web. The system includes a permeable structured fabric carrying the web over a drying apparatus. A permeable dewatering fabric contacts the web and is guided over the drying apparatus. A mechanism is used to apply pressure to the permeable structured fabric, the web, and the permeable dewatering fabric at the drying apparatus. This Abstract is not intended to define the invention disclosed in the specification, nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way. | 07-02-2009 |
| 20100170651 | PRESS SECTION AND PERMEABLE BELT IN A PAPER MACHINE - A pressing arrangement including at least one first fabric and second fabric both being permeable. A paper web is disposed between the first fabric and the second fabric. A pressure producing element is in contact with the first fabric. A support surface of a supporting structure is in contact with the second fabric. A differential pressure is provided between the first fabric and the support surface that acts on the first fabric, the paper web, and the second fabric, whereby the paper web is subjected to mechanical pressure and experiences a predetermined hydraulic pressure so as to cause water to be drained from the paper web. The pressing arrangement is structured and arranged to allow air to flow in a direction from the first fabric through the paper web and through the second fabric. | 07-08-2010 |
