In today's telecommunications networks, signals for live communications are established by connecting the initiator of the communications ("the Initiators") with the known and predetermined receivers ("the Receivers") they have chosen. Moreover, live communications can only be established within the limited time delays predetermined by network operators with respect to the time delay between the i...

This invention maximizes the energy potential for fossil fuel burning combustion engines. It does this by recovering the heat from the exhaust and turning it into mechanical or electrical energy through the use of steam technology. In addition, the residual heat can be recovered for hot water applications. This invention merges the 120 odd years of combustion engine technology (fossil fuelled, hyd...

A floating shoulder ring is arranged to occupy the J-space between pin ends of coupled pipe sections. The length of the ring is arranged to allow the pipe connection to approach the specified torque for shoulderless connections before the ring begins to function as an abutment between the approaching pipe ends. The torque accepted by the ring limits the radial force imposed by tapered threads on b...

The deck is removed, footings are cast in holes dug behind each abutment and a pier is provided on each footing. Substantially parallel and coplanar cambered beams are provided. Each beam spans between and is supported by the piers. A brace assembly reinforces the ...

A sensor system for detecting a collision between first and second parts moving relative to each other. The sensor system comprises at least one sensor for detecting a collision between the first and second parts, the sensor comprising first and second elongate conductive elements and a non-conducting spacing element partially extending between the first and second elongate conductive elements to ...

A vibrating tool comprising a hammer and valve that oscillate axially inside a housing to produce vibrations solely in response to fluid flow through the tool at an operating flow rate. The valve is supported by a spring that resists compression until a minimum operating flow rate is achieved, and hammer is also spring-loaded. When the valve strokes down and engages the hammer, flow through the ha...

An improved, hose occluding, pulley block employed as a component of a wave-powered, reciprocating hose peristaltic pump apparatus typically installed in a body of fluid upon which waves occur. It is characterized as a pulley block capable of occluding a peristaltic hose drawn either about or across a portion the pulley's face as previously described in my now published patent application No. PCT/...
