| 20140306482 | BUMPER SYSTEM WITH PEDESTRIAN-FRIENDLY LOWER APRON - An apron for a vehicle front end comprises a unitary plastic component having a front structure and a rear structure joined by an offset portion. The front and rear structures extend at rearward downward angles and in generally parallel directions, and the offset portion extends at a rearward upward angle. The apron has a relatively constant vertical dimension, such that the angled structures define a wave-shaped envelope. Preferably, a horizontal plane extending from the tip of the front structure stays within the wave-shaped envelope, so that impact forces stay within the boundary in a manner providing improved impact strength and greater energy absorption during an impact. At the same time, the front structure provides a homogeneous structure that distributes local impact stresses uniformly and more widely into the rear structure, thus providing a more uniform impact resistance less sensitive to impact location. | 10-16-2014 |
| 20140312636 | BUMPER ENERGY ABSORBER WITH SENSOR AND CONFIGURED LOBES - A vehicle bumper system comprises a bumper reinforcement beam and an energy absorber with top and bottom rows of similarly-shaped spaced-apart crush lobes in alternating relation for uniform impact resistance across the bumper system. The illustrated top row of crush lobes provides a high first force-deflection curve for high impact forces, and the bottom row of crush lobes provides a lower second force-deflection curve, for pedestrian reduced injury. An elongated sensor is positioned under shear walls of the top and bottom crush lobes, and is retained by tabs on the energy absorber. This positively retains the sensor in position on the bumper system, with few (or zero) separate fasteners, while facilitating quick assembly and reliable operation of the sensor tube. | 10-23-2014 |

| 20130113236 | VEHICLE COWL COMPONENTS ADAPTED FOR HOOD/FENDER SEALING - A vehicle cowl component configured to extend between a hood's rear edge and a vehicle front windshield comprises a cowl and a seal, the seal including a U-shaped cross section attached to the under-hood edge and having upwardly extending front and rear curved walls, each of the curved walls having an unconnected free end. In one embodiment, the seal is two-shot molded onto the cowl, which eliminates secondary attachment operations. A method includes steps of first-shot molding a cowl, and then second-shot molding a U-shaped seal onto the cowl along an under-hood front edge. A modified cowl includes a seal with a downwardly extending wiper for sealing engagement with a body support structure under the cowl and seal. | 05-09-2013 |

| 20090078185 | Enhanced side-by-side mooring construction - The invention relates to a floating offshore structure anchored to the sea bed. The floating offshore structure comprises a hull having longitudinal sides and transverse sides, bow and stern anchoring points for mooring a tanker vessel alongside the offshore structure, a deck at a predetermined hight above sea level, hydrocarbon storage and/or processing devices being placed on the deck, a spacer member attached to the structure and projecting transversely from the sides for contacting a tanker vessel moored alongside the structure. The anchoring points of the structure comprise of quick release members, wherein the bow and/or stern anchoring points of the structure are situated on a deck which projects transversely from the hull of the structure substantially at the heights of anchoring points of the tanker vessel. | 03-26-2009 |

| 20090202194 | OPTICAL MEASURING DEVICE FOR DETERMINING TEMPERATURE IN A CRYOGENIC ENVIRONMENT AND WINDING ARRANGEMENT WHOSE TEMPERATURE CAN BE MONITORED - An optical measuring device for determining temperature in a cryogenic environment includes at least one optical waveguide provided with at least one fiber Bragg grating sensor that is interrogated by a light signal. The device includes a light injector that injects light into the at least one fiber Bragg grating sensor, and an evaluation unit that determines a temperature value from the modulated light signal emanating from the at least one fiber Bragg grating sensor. The device includes at least one jacket that non-rigidly encloses the optical waveguide, at least in the region of the at least one fiber Bragg grating sensor. The jacket has a larger coefficient of thermal expansion, at least at cryogenic temperatures, than the optical waveguide. A winding arrangement for use in a cryogenic environment is provided with such a device for temperature monitoring of a conductor of the winding arrangement. | 08-13-2009 |

| 20120061139 | Superconductive Connecting Device For The End Pieces Of Two Superconductors And Method For The Production Thereof - A superconductive connecting device of at least one embodiment is used to contact the end pieces of two superconductors, each of which includes at least one conductor lead that is made of a superconductive MgB | 03-15-2012 |
| 20120105063 | SUPERCONDUCTIVE MAGNETIC COIL COMPRISING REGIONS HAVING DIFFERING HEAT TRANSFER - A superconductive magnetic coil is located in a cryostat for cooling purposes which is filled only up to a certain fill level with liquid helium. A helium gas phase having a temperature stratification, in which, for example, temperatures are present that can lead to a collapse of the superconductivity, forms over said helium accumulation. The magnetic coil is therefore subdivided into at least two partial regions having differing heat transfer between the coil and the surrounding medium. In a first partial region of the coil, in the surroundings of which a sufficiently low temperature for cooling is present, the heat transfer is high, while the magnetic coil in a second partial region, in the surroundings of which the temperature of the cooling medium is above a critical value, exhibits heat insulation. Consequently, no heat is exchanged between the coil and the surroundings in the second partial region, while cooling of the coil takes place in the first partial region. | 05-03-2012 |
| 20120184446 | PROCESS FOR PRODUCING A CONNECTING STRUCTURE BETWEEN TWO SUPERCONDUCTORS AND STRUCTURE FOR CONNECTING TWO SUPERCONDUCTORS - A process produces a connecting structure between two superconductors, in particular magnesium diboride superconductors embodied as a superconducting core wire surrounded by normally conducting metal. A substance which reduces the melting point of magnesium is admixed to a substance mixture including magnesium and boron, and the exposed ends of the core wires are brought into contact with the substance mixture, which is caused to react in situ at a reaction temperature corresponding to the lower melting point to give magnesium diboride. | 07-19-2012 |
| 20130172196 | HIGH-TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTOR (HTS) COIL - A high-temperature superconductor (HTS) coil includes a coil winding with a superconducting material and a coil former for carrying the coil winding. When the high-temperature supercon-ductor (HTS) coil cools down from a room temperature to an operating temperature, the coil winding or the coil former counteract a thermal shrinkage of the coil winding in order to avoid or reduce a longitudinal compression of the superconducting material of the coil winding. | 07-04-2013 |
| 20130331269 | Coil System for a Magnetic Resonance Tomography System - A coil system for a magnetic resonance tomography system includes a plurality of coils for sending and/or receiving high-frequency signals. The plurality of coils is disposed in a receiving chamber between a tomography magnet and a lining of an opening in the tomography magnet and may be cooled by a cooling apparatus. When the coil system is in an operating state, the receiving chamber is filled with a cryogenic cooling medium. | 12-12-2013 |
| 20140312999 | WINDING SUPPORT, ELECTRICAL COIL AND METHOD TO PRODUCE AN ELECTRICAL COIL - A winding support has at least two parts on which to wind an electrical double coil in two winding planes situated in parallel, orthogonal to a winding axis. Each part has an annular structure with base areas that are identical for all of the parts, and an outer surface that is a band of the surface of a straight cylinder between the bases. Each part has a slit-shaped cut-out extending in a longitudinal direction over a portion of the length of the cylinder. The parts are adjacently connected with one another with a lateral separation therebetween in the direction of the winding axis, and with the cut-outs forming a common slit extending over both parts. An electrical coil has such a winding support, and a method to produce such a coil includes winding a conductor on such a winding support. | 10-23-2014 |
