A weather and wear resistant rubber ID unit for a tire with a selected pattern on the ID unit is made by scanning a outer layer of the rubber unit with a laser beam from a high powered CO2 laser operated at a less than full power output, to ablate the outer layer in the form of the selected pattern to expose an inner layer of the unit which has a contrasting color. Loose and residue particles are ...

An ergonomic input device holder where a portable input device such as a tablet computer is attached to the top side and the user grips the input device holder by a pistol grip handle on the bottom side. The user's hand is furthermore supported by a pair of wrist supports and the wrist may optionally be strapped in place with straps, The handle and the wrist supports can be rotated to fit both rig...

An information handling system lock and carrying strap provides a carrying mode to transport the portable computer and a security mode to secure the portable computer to a fixed object. A cable has attachment devices coupled to each end and operable to couple to a portable computer so that the cable acts as a carrying strap. The cable further secures the information handling system to a fixed devi...

A modular carrying apparatus includes a base unit and an accessory unit. The base unit includes a first portion (or part) of a fastener and the accessory unit includes a second portion of the fastener. The base unit may removably couple with an object, while the accessory unit is configured to hold materials, for example, building materials, cooking materials, seamstress materials, art materials, ...

A cell storage maintenance and monitoring system includes a blood product storage container, such as a flexible bag, and a microporous membrane which may be attached to an inner wall of the blood storage container to form a contained space between the inner wall and the membrane. The membrane includes a plurality of pores, preferably filled with an erodible substance responsive to a selected chara...

Aluminum powder, neutron absorber, and third particle composed of oxide, nitride, carbide or boride are mixed, and preformed by cold isostatic pressing (CIP). Successively, by canning the preformed material, this preformed material is sintered by hot isostatic pressing (HIP). After sintering, the can outside and end face are machined by grinding, and the billet is taken out. Square pipes are forme...

Disclosed is a fire-protection and safety glazing laminate having a haze value less than 4 percent comprising (A) a plurality of high modulus layers laminated with (B) at least one fluoropolymer resin layer wherein (B) resides between (A). The high modulus layers comprise glass, polycarbonate or polyurethane. The fluoropolymer resin layer has a matte finish surface, an embossed finish surface or a...

In a process of generating a polyurethane foam by forming a mixture including isocyanate and polyol reactants, catalyst, and blowing agent, which mixture reacts exothermically to yield a rigid polyurethane foam, there is included in the mixture expandable polymer beads, made of a thermoplastic polymer (e.g., polystyrene or a polyolefin) that has a softening point at or below the maximum temperatur...

A method is presented for path planning after changes in task space. In one embodiment, the method is applied to planning a path for a robot arm. The method identifies areas in the configuration space which are affected by the changes in task space. Cost waves can then be repropagated in these affected areas to allow for planning in N dimensions and using space variant metrics. The method is also ...

A process prepares expandable propylene polymer beads by mixing propylene polymer melt with a volatile organic blowing agent and with a nucleating agent in an extruder, whereupon the extrusion and pelletization of the extruded takes place in a water bath under conditions of temperature and pressure at which practically no foaming of the pellets takes place.

In an electronic apparatus having brackets which are formed integrally with a case of the electronic apparatus, and which are used for attaching the case to a vehicle, a thin portion is disposed on the side of the brackets with respect to a partition wall which forms a space for housing a circuit board, and a member which forms the thin portion is thinner than the partition wall.

Borehole orientation information, typically azimuth and inclination, is derived from measurements of gravitational and magnetic components along a borehole axis (O) and transverse thereto. The transverse components are measured by a fluxgate (12) and accelerometer (14) arranged to rotate around the borehole axis (O) at a constant angular velocity (w). The calculations necessary to derive the desir...
