| 20130059394 | INDICATOR SYSTEM FOR FIBRE OPTIC SENSOR - The invention provides an optical sensor, e.g a fibre optic sensor, for determining the presence or amount of an analyte in a medium, the sensor having an indicator provided in the form of a fluid. In one aspect, the sensor contains either a solution of the indicator itself, or a solution of a support material which is bonded to the indicator. Dendrimers are examples of suitable support materials. | 03-07-2013 |

| 20100142102 | Low Force Low Oil Trip Mechanism - A circuit breaker for a transformer includes means for interrupting circuitry in the transformer upon a fault condition in the transformer (the “fault interruption means”). The circuit breaker also includes means for interrupting the circuitry when a level of dielectric fluid in a tank of the transformer is unacceptably low (the “low oil trip means”). The fault interruption means includes a magnet, metal element, and first actuator. Upon the fault condition, the magnet and metal element separate, moving the first actuator to cause the electrical circuitry to open. The low oil trip means includes a float, insulating rod, and second actuator. When the dielectric fluid level drops to an unacceptably low level, the float and insulating rod drop, moving the second actuator to cause the circuitry to open. The low oil trip means operates independently of the fault interruption means, opening the circuitry without separating the magnet and metal element. | 06-10-2010 |

| 20120013341 | Method and Apparatus for Electrically Cycling a Battery Cell to Simulate an Internal Short - A test apparatus and corresponding method for simulating an internal cell short and initiating thermal runaway in a battery cell is disclosed whereby the cell is internally heated through rapid charge and discharge cycles at high currents. The magnitude of the selected current may be modulated to simulate a cell short with the desired power profile without unrealistically heating neighboring cells or interfering with the thermal environment of the cell within the module. | 01-19-2012 |

| 20110061971 | RESCUE ARRANGEMENT - The invention relates to a rescue arrangement for effecting a rapid descent from a higher level to a lower level. The rescue arrangement comprises guiding means which extend between the higher level and the lower level, as well as carrying means which are connectable to the guiding means for carrying a person or another object from the higher level to the lower level along the guiding means. Magnetic braking means, which comprise a series of permanent magnets, are located on the guiding means or the carrying means for slowing down the carrying means at least near the lower end of the guiding means. | 03-17-2011 |

| 20080255504 | USER INTERFACE FOR CONFIGURING AN INVASIVE CARDIOLOGY DIGITAL SIGNAL AMPLIFIER AND METHOD OF USE - Certain embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for catheter input management. Certain embodiments provide a user interface system facilitating catheter monitoring. The system includes a virtual catheter input module (CIM) corresponding to and representing a physical CIM that is adapted to be connected to at least one catheter. The system also includes a configuration module establishing a catheter configuration for the virtual CIM based on a plurality of configuration settings for a catheter channel. At least one catheter channel is assigned to a virtual input port on the virtual CIM. The configuration module applies the catheter configuration for at least one catheter channel when a catheter is connected to a physical input port on the physical CIM corresponding to the virtual input port on the virtual CIM. | 10-16-2008 |

| 20100252648 | Climate Processor - A climate processor having virtual estuaries which enable large strips of land to act like real water estuaries thereby providing a means of climate control overhead. Said estuaries are also used to prevent polar isotherm migration, melting ice shelves, vortical storm formation and migration from lateral coastal airflow. Said estuaries are formed between two parallel-laid thermal belts formed from artificial surface whitening and jet contrails. The surface whitening can be laid down as a foam or gel and deployed overhead as a high level aviation propellant. The belts may be applied daily and dissipate as the day progresses and subsequently warms. Commercial aircraft flights may be readjusted based on the placement of the artificial estuaries. Also claimed are an aerial deployment system for the foam, a high-level aviation propellant system, a carbon trading system for commercial airlines, a “Russian Doll” gas mixing device and a range of suitable foams. | 10-07-2010 |
