20130115540 | FUEL CELL OPERATION WITH A FAILED OPEN INJECTOR - A system and method for controlling hydrogen gas flow to an anode side of a fuel cell stack using a pressure regulator in the event that an injector that normally injects the hydrogen gas into the fuel cell stack has failed in a stuck open position. During normal operation, the control of the injector is determined based on the pressure of an anode sub-system and the position of the pressure regulator is determined based on a supply pressure between the pressure regulator and the injector. If it is determined that the injector is stuck in an open position, then the position of the pressure regulator is controlled to the anode pressure instead of the supply pressure. If the pressure regulator is an electrical pressure regulator, then it is pulsed to mimic normal system operation. Alternately, another valve, such as a shut-off valve, can be employed to provide the flow pulsing. | 05-09-2013 |

A method may comprise displaying a text caption including one or more blocks of text on each of a first device and a second device remote from the first device. The method may also include generating another block of text and replacing a block of text of the text caption with the another block of text. Furthermore, the method may include displaying the text caption on the second device having the block of text of the first text caption replaced by the another block of text. | 02-19-2015 |

20120018956 | SEAL ASSEMBLY - A seal assembly is disclosed for use between a housing and a rotatable shaft protruding exteriorly from the housing, with the shat being journalled for rotation in an eccentric cartridge which in turn is rotatably adjustable. The seal assembly comprises a circular flinger mounted on the shaft for rotation therewith. The flinger has radially outwardly projecting flanges defining an axial space therebetween. A seal carrier surrounds the flinger and has axially spaced first and second inner rims projecting radially inwardly into the space between the flanges of the flinger. Ring seals are carried by the seal carriers. The inner rims are resiliently urged to maintain the ring seals in contact with the flinger flanges. | 01-26-2012 |

20120307204 | DEVICE TO MEASURE FUNCTIONS OF THE EYE DIRECTLY - A device for accommodation training includes a primary light and a sensor supported by a housing and configured to be worn atop the head of the user to capture light reflected by the retina. One or more alignment lights may be provided, along with mounts for adjusting the positioning of the lights and sensor. A feedback signal such as an audible tone is produced as a function of the detected light, providing confirmation to the user that a desired control over the ciliary muscle has been achieved. | 12-06-2012 |

20100019153 | Air-Coupled Acoustic Thermography for In-Situ Evaluation - Acoustic thermography uses a housing configured for thermal, acoustic and infrared radiation shielding. For in-situ applications, the housing has an open side adapted to be sealingly coupled to a surface region of a structure such that an enclosed chamber filled with air is defined. One or more acoustic sources are positioned to direct acoustic waves through the air in the enclosed chamber and towards the surface region. To activate and control each acoustic source, a pulsed signal is applied thereto. An infrared imager focused on the surface region detects a thermal image of the surface region. A data capture device records the thermal image in synchronicity with each pulse of the pulsed signal such that a time series of thermal images is generated. For enhanced sensitivity and/or repeatability, sound and/or vibrations at the surface region can be used in feedback control of the pulsed signal applied to the acoustic sources. | 01-28-2010 |
20130030727 | Floating Ultrasonic Transducer Inspection System and Method for Nondestructive Evaluation - A method for inspecting a structural sample using ultrasonic energy includes positioning an ultrasonic transducer adjacent to a surface of the sample, and then transmitting ultrasonic energy into the sample. Force pulses are applied to the transducer concurrently with transmission of the ultrasonic energy. A host machine processes ultrasonic return pulses from an ultrasonic pulser/receiver to quantify attenuation of the ultrasonic energy within the sample. The host machine detects a defect in the sample using the quantified level of attenuation. The method may include positioning a dry couplant between an ultrasonic transducer and the surface. A system includes an actuator, an ultrasonic transducer, a dry couplant between the transducer the sample, a scanning device that moves the actuator and transducer, and a measurement system having a pulsed actuator power supply, an ultrasonic pulser/receiver, and a host machine that executes the above method. | 01-31-2013 |
