Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120110847METHOD FOR SERVICING A TURBINE PART - According to one aspect of the invention, a method for in situ repair of a turbine part is provided. The method includes the steps of accessing the turbine part while assembled to other turbine components, wherein the turbine part comprises a region with a structural flaw near a hole in the turbine part, wherein the hole is configured to flow a cooling fluid and welding the structural flaw without performing a heat treatment of the turbine part, wherein welding the structural flaw comprises laser welding that maintains a structure of the region.05-10-2012

20090089095Clinical Information Acquisition and Processing System - A system for acquiring and processing data for use by a clinical information system includes an interface processor for automatically receiving patient clinical data from multiple different sources. The interface processor parses clinical data received from an individual source to identify data elements indicating clinical data type as well as an associated time, stage, value and unit of measure. An adaptive data processor automatically adaptively processes the clinical data received from the individual source to provide processed clinical data accommodating absence of a value of at least one of the data elements by substituting at least one of, (a) a null value, (b) a zero value and (c) a default value for an absent data element. A storage processor stores the processed clinical data in a repository and retrieves a selectable plurality of the data elements for reproduction in an adaptively selectable presentation.04-02-2009

20110127477HOIST SYSTEMS - A hoist system includes a drive system and a shaft in rotatable connection with the drive system. The hoist system also includes a flexible first hoist member operatively connected to the shaft at a first longitudinal position thereon so that it can be wound around the shaft or unwound from around the shaft upon rotation of the shaft. The first hoist member extends from the shaft in a first direction. The hoist system also includes at least a second flexible hoist member operatively connected to the shaft at the first longitudinal position so that it can be wound around the shaft or unwound from around the shaft upon rotation of the shaft. The second hoist member extends from the shaft in a second direction, different from the first direction, so that the first hoist member and the second hoist member are wound around the shaft upon rotation of the shaft in a first or forward direction and are unwound from around the shaft upon rotation of the shaft in a second or reverse direction. The first hoist member and the second hoist member are wound on top of each other when the shaft is rotated in the forward direction. The hoist system also includes a first guide member spaced from the drive shaft on a first side of the drive shaft. The first hoist member passes around at least a portion of the first guide member and extends downward to be operatively connectible to an object to be hoisted. The hoist system further includes a second guide member spaced from the drive shaft on a second side of the drive shaft. The second side is different from the first side. The second hoist member passes around at least a portion of the second guide member and extends downward to be operatively connectible to an object to be hoisted.06-02-2011

20090246269IDENTIFICATION AND USE OF GPRC VARIANTS IN THE TREATMENT AND DIAGNOSIS OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE - The invention relates genes that are deregulated in Parkinson's disease tissues and the corresponding proteins are identified. These genes and the corresponding proteins are suitable targets for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Also, the invention relates to compounds and their uses, particularly in the pharmaceutical industry. The invention more specifically relates to new uses of compounds that activate the B2 bradykinin receptor, for treating neurodegeneration involving oxidative stress and, more particularly, Parkinson's disease. The invention also relates to corresponding methods of treatment, and can be used in human subjects for preventive or curative treatment, either alone or in combination with other active agents or treatments.10-01-2009

20100064104Integrated-circuit implementation of a storage-shelf router and a path controller card for combined use in high-availability mass-storage-device shelves and that support virtual disk formatting - An integrated circuit implementing a storage-shelf router used alone, or in combination with other storage-shelf routers, and in combination with path controller cards, to interconnect the disks within a storage shelf or disk array to a high-bandwidth communications medium through which data is exchanged between the individual disk drives of the storage shelf and a disk-array controller. In various embodiments, the present invention provides virtual disk formatting by a storage shelf router and the storage shelf in which the storage-shelf is included, to external computing entities, such as disk-array controllers and host computers. By providing virtual disk formatting, a storage-shelf router can provide to a disk-array controller, and other external computing entities, the disk-formatting convention expected by the disk-array controller, even though disk drives and other storage systems that do not conform to the expected formatting conventions may be included in the storage shelf and interconnected to a disk-array controller and other external processing entities via an interface provided by a storage-shelf router. Virtual disk formatting, in addition, allows a storage-shelf router to format a disk drive differently from the disk formatting expected by external computing entities, so that the storage-shelf router can transparently include additional information into disk sectors, such as additional error detection and error-correction information.03-11-2010
