20140114551 | LEAK AND BLOCKAGE DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEMS AND METHODS - A diagnostic system for a vehicle is disclosed. A first difference module generates a first difference based on a first pressure measured at a first secondary air injection (SAI) valve and a previous value of the first pressure. A first summer module generates a first accumulated difference based on a sum of values of the first difference generated during a predetermined period. A second difference module generates a second difference based on a second pressure measured at a second SAI valve and a previous value of the second pressure. A second summer module generates a second accumulated difference based on a sum of values of the second difference generated during the predetermined period. A fault indication module selectively indicates that a fault is present downstream of one of the first and second SAI valves based on the first and second accumulated differences. | 04-24-2014 |

20090314149 | METHOD OF CUTTING TARGET MEMBERS USING A CUTTING SAW DEVICE - A diamond wire saw and method provides a frame that includes a clamp that attaches to a target (e.g. piling, beam, tubular), an elongated toothed rack extending away from the mount and target, and a moving portion that carries the diamond wire and motor drives that advance the moving portion toward the target and along the toothed rack while driving the wire around roller guides. | 12-24-2009 |
20100005940 | ARTICULATING BAND SAW AND METHOD - An articulating band saw apparatus provides a frame that includes a vertically extending section having upper and lower end portions. An elevator moves between the upper and lower end portions of the frame. A first hydraulic actuator is supported on the elevator for movement therewith. A first arm provides arm end portions, the first arm supported by the first hydraulic actuator. An end of the first arm supporting a second hydraulic actuator that is spaced away from the first hydraulic actuator. The second hydraulic actuator supports a second arm. An endless band type saw is mounted on the free end of the second arm generally opposite the second actuator. The band saw is movable by articulation of the first and second actuators and resulting movement of the first and second arms. In one embodiment, the band saw is a diamond wire saw. | 01-14-2010 |
20100278602 | ARTICULATING DRILL METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CUTTIG OPENINGS IN NESTED STRINGS OF UNDERWATER PIPING AND/OR TUBING FOR OVERTURNED WELLS OR PLATFORMS - A method and apparatus for angularly drilling during a tapping procedure into a pressurized multiple strings of coaxially situated tubulars for wells and/or platforms which have overturned wherein the tapping occurs underwater via a diver or remotely operated vehicle. | 11-04-2010 |
20110138983 | ARTICULATING BAND SAW AND METHOD - An articulating band saw apparatus provides a frame that includes a vertically extending section having upper and lower end portions. An elevator moves between the upper and lower end portions of the frame. A first hydraulic actuator is supported on the elevator for movement therewith. A first arm provides arm end portions, the first arm supported by the first hydraulic actuator. An end of the first arm supporting a second hydraulic actuator that is spaced away from the first hydraulic actuator. The second hydraulic actuator supports a second arm. An endless band type saw is mounted on the free end of the second arm generally opposite the second actuator. The band saw is movable by articulation of the first and second actuators and resulting movement of the first and second arms. In one embodiment, the band saw is a diamond wire saw. | 06-16-2011 |
20110290091 | INTERNAL JACKET LEG CUTTER AND METHOD - An internal caisson/jacket leg cutter and method provides a frame having upper and lower end portions. The upper end portion has rigging that enables the frame to be lifted. Extensible arms are movably supported upon the frame. The arms extend and retract along generally radially extending lines. Extension of the arms enables them to contact the inside surface of a caisson/jacket leg and thus center and anchor the frame within the caisson/jacket leg interior. A cutting mechanism at the lower end portion of the frame includes one or more rotary cutters or milling devices that cut the caisson/jacket leg wall as these cutters traverse an arc shaped path, tracking the caisson/jacket leg wall. | 12-01-2011 |

20120234003 | EXHAUST TREATMENT SYSTEM FOR AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - An exhaust system comprises an exhaust driven turbocharger having an outlet and a flanged portion that extends about the outlet, an exhaust treatment device comprising a canister having an inlet cone that includes an integral inlet flange defining an the inlet opening configured to define a seal with the flanged portion that extends about the outlet of the turbocharger and a substrate disposed within the canister through which the exhaust gas flows. An exhaust gas passage, fluidly couples the turbocharger and the exhaust treatment device and allows for the passage of exhaust gas therebetween and a flow modifier comprising a radially inwardly extending wall portion extends from an inner wall of the exhaust gas passage and directs the exhaust gas away from an outer radius of the exhaust gas passage to evenly distribute the exhaust gas across the an inlet face of the substrate. | 09-20-2012 |
20130091832 | REINFORCED V-BAND CLAMP - A clamp includes a curved band having an inner surface, an outer surface, a first end, and a second end. The band is characterized by a substantially V-shaped cross-section in a radial plane of the band. The inner surface of the band defines the inside contour of the V-shaped cross-section. The clamp also includes a fastener configured to draw together the first and second ends such that the band may be tightened around adjacent flanges of objects to be clamped together. The inner surface is configured to squeeze the flanges together and clamp the objects. The band includes a reinforcement configured to stiffen the substantially V-shaped cross-section and minimize yielding of the cross-section when the objects are being clamped. An engine assembly that includes a first exhaust component and a second exhaust component having respective first and second flanges being squeezed and clamped together via the clamp is also disclosed. | 04-18-2013 |

20150021975 | SPINNER FOR VEHICLE WHEEL - A vehicle wheel spinning device comprising a ring shaped housing having a front and back ring forming a cavity therein is disclosed. The front ring has a series of decorative apertures formed therein. A spinning ring is rotatably mounted within said cavity. Various visual effects are produced by providing on the surface of the spinning ring facing the front ring of said housing at least one section of a contrasting color to the remainder of the surface. When the spinning ring rotates the colors show through said apertures during rotation of the spinning ring. The spinning device is attached to the front of a vehicle wheel in a manner that the housing rotates with the wheel and the spinning ring rotates separately from the rotation of the housing and continues to rotate for a time after the wheel stops rotating. | 01-22-2015 |
