20090304465 | L-Valve Construction for Controlling Solids Flow in a Liquid Medium Using Standard Pipe Fittings - A new valve is designed for the transport of solids using a motive fluid. The valve includes an inlet conduit for carrying solids, where the solids are fed through gravity. The solids are carried by fluid transport out an outlet where the outlet conduit has a smaller diameter than the inlet conduit carrying the solids. The conduit should be sufficiently smaller to prevent instability in the flow. A second inlet provides the source of motive fluid to drive the transport of solids. | 12-10-2009 |

Once the shell clears the end of the artillery tube, the pressure aft of the shell drops from the high pressure inside the tube to atmospheric pressure outside the tube. The high pressure gun gasses stored in the chamber act over the top surface of the piston to drive the piston aft against the much lower pressure behind the projectile to deploy the fabric fairing attached thereto to reduce the base area of the projectile creating or extending the boat-tail of the shell, hence reduce aerodynamic drag. The aft driven piston engages a locking mechanism that locks the piston in a deployed position. | 02-03-2011 |

20130073257 | METHOD, DEVICE, AND SYSTEM FOR MONITORING A COMPONENT - A system includes a sensor configured to provide a signal related to an operating condition of a component, a memory for storing values representative of the operating condition, and a processor coupled to the sensor and to the memory. The processor is programmed to calculate a first value of the operating condition during a first period of time based on the stored values, calculate a second value of the operating condition during a second period of time using the first value, and determine a status of the component using the second value. | 03-21-2013 |

20080252780 | CAPTIONING EVALUATION SYSTEM - A captioning evaluation system. The system accepts captioning data and determines a number of errors in the captioning data, as well as the number of words per minute across the entirety of an event corresponding to the captioning data and time intervals of the event. The errors may be used to determine the accuracy of the captioning and the words per minute, both for the entire event and the time intervals, used to determine a cadence and/or rhythm for the captioning. The accuracy and cadence may be used to score the captioning data and captioner. | 10-16-2008 |
20150208139 | Caption Extraction and Analysis - Methods and systems are disclosed for real-time metatagging and captioning of an event and caption extraction and analysis for such event. The method for the real-time metatagging and captioning and caption extraction and analysis of an event may include embedding metatag information in a caption file provided by a captioner. The embedded and/or extracted metatag information may allow a user to access additional information via the text of the captioned event. Data, words, or phrases can be provided by the captioner during captioning or, post-captioning, extracted from the one or more segments of the caption transcript. Metadata based on said providing and/or extracting is provided. The metadata is stored in a metadata archive, where the metadata is associated with the caption transcript. | 07-23-2015 |

20090149152 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MAINTAINING AVERAGE POWER OF A BASEBAND SIGNAL - A method and device maintains constant average power of a baseband signal. The baseband signal to be power amplified is received into a processing device that measures a first average power of the baseband signal. Peak reduction is performed on the received baseband signal. A second average power of the baseband signal is measured after peak reduction. Gain compensation is determined based on the difference between the first and second average power measurements. The gain compensation is applied to the baseband signal after the peak reduction in order to maintain a substantially constant average power of the baseband signal. | 06-11-2009 |

20110225831 | Rotary Knife For Drywall and the Like - A utility knife with a replaceable circular blade mounted to rotate on the end of the handle. The upper half of the blade is shrouded by the end of the handle, and freely rotates therein. A spacer with a roller end is mounted to be adjusted toward and away from a workpiece to adjust and control the blade's depth of cut. The handle includes a storage compartment for spare blades and has a pivoting cover. For use as a drywall knife, the blade has a continuous edge and a thicker central body that presents discontinuous “points” or edge bodies to the workpiece along the sides of a the cut made by the continuous edge, designed to push apart the paper cover or sheath on the drywall as it makes a cut, and to keep the blade rolling freely as it makes a cut. A tape measure can optionally be incorporated into a rounded handle portion. | 09-22-2011 |
