The fitting comprises a body, an inlet at one end of the body, an outlet at the other end of the body, a fluid flow passageway extending between the inlet and the outlet through the body. The fitting also comprises a hydraulic test membrane bonded to the fitting across the fluid passageway, the membrane being sized and shaped to be manually punctured. There is also disclosed a method of making such a fitting. | 04-02-2009 |
| 20100311319 | ROOF VENT - A roof vent is provide. The roof vent comprises a top component coupled to a bottom component. The top component has a top wall, a side wall, a first louvered region disposed between said top wall and said side wall, and a top cylindrical baffle located inwardly of said first louvered region. The bottom component has at least a first cylindrical collar sized and shaped for mounting to a cylindrical exhaust stack of a first diameter, a second louvered region, and a bottom cylindrical baffle located below and inwardly of the top cylindrical baffle. The first louvered and second louvered regions are for helping to prevent insects, and moisture, such as snow and rain, from entering the roof vent. The top component may also be used separately from the bottom component to cover over aging or aesthetically unpleasing passive pot vents. | 12-09-2010 |
| 20110100485 | CENTRAL VACUUM INLET VALVE ASSEMBLY - A subassembly for use in a vacuum inlet valve assembly for a central vacuum system, the subassembly having a valve body with a wiring compartment and at least one press connection detent means and a reversible mounting flange for connecting to the valve body. The mounting flange includes an attachment portion, a mounting flange wall sized and shaped to cover an open side of wiring compartment and press catch connection elements sized and shaped to interact with the detent to secure the mounting flange to the valve body. Also disclosed is a vacuum inlet valve assembly comprising the above subassembly in combination with a cover plate having a rectangular door, a hinge located on a long side of the rectangular door, and a face plate with a vacuum connection opening. In an alternate embodiment the valve body includes a perimeter wall, attachment openings internal but adjacent to said perimeter wall and a snap fit cover to close an open wall of a wiring compartment. | 05-05-2011 |

| 20080267406 | Method and Device for Verifying The Integrity of Platform Software of an Electronic Device - A method for verifying the integrity of platform software of an electronic device is provided, the method comprising accessing a module of said platform software, obtaining a signature (S), obtaining a verification key (VK), said verification key (VK) corresponding to a signing key (SK), verifying if said signature (S) was derived by signing said platform software module with said signing key (SK), by using said verification key (VK), and establishing a positive verification of said platform software module if said verification is successful. The invention also provides a method for providing a platform software module to perform the aforementioned method, and a device on which the aforementioned method can be performed. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20110213971 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING RIGHTS MANAGEMENT AT FILE SYSTEM LEVEL - An approach is presented for providing rights management at file system level. A virtual file system rights management application receives a request to access a protected file. The rights management application binds the access request to the protected file in the file system, determines credentials associated with the request for accessing the protected file according to the binding and causes, at least in part, verification of the credentials according to a rights management system associated with the protected file. Based, at least in part, on the determination, the rights management application causes decryption of the protected content. | 09-01-2011 |

| 20090056412 | METHOD FOR CALIBRATION OF MEASURING EQUIPMENT AND MEASURING EQUIPMENT - A method for the calibration of measuring equipment, and measuring equipment. The measuring equipment comprises at least one first sensor, at least one second sensor and at least one reference piece. When the measuring equipment is calibrated, a moving web is supported against the reference piece and the reference piece with the moving web supported thereto is moved to different distances from the first sensor and the second sensor. Further, a distance between the first sensor and the moving web and a distance between the second sensor and the reference piece is measured at least for two different distances, and the first sensor and the second sensor are calibrated to be uniform in relation to the movement of the reference piece. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20100165344 | WEB MEASUREMENT - One measuring part of a traversing measuring unit measures at least one characteristic of a web with a first radiation type from a plurality of measuring locations during a traversing movement at successive moments in time. At least two measuring parts of an array measuring unit measure at least one characteristic of the web with another radiation type during each traversing movement at a plurality of different moments in time by directing the measurement to a plurality of measuring locations in the web at each moment in time. A signal processing unit is arranged to estimate at least one characteristic measured by the traversing measuring unit with at least one measurement of the array measuring unit. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100319866 | MEASURING OF WEB - Optical radiation sources functioning on different optical bands radiate on different optical bands and focus optical radiation on a region in a web surface as pulses in such a manner that illumination areas of the pulses overlap on the plane of the web. At most one optical radiation band is focused on the web from the direction of the normal. The spatial intensity distribution of at least one optical band differs from the uniform distribution and the intensity distributions of at least two different optical bands differ from one another in a predetermined manner. A camera forms still images of the web surface region on each optical radiation band. An image-processing unit determines the surface topography of the web on the basis of the images. In addition, a controller may control the paper manufacturing process on the basis of the determined surface topography. | 12-23-2010 |
