20120248042 | OIL SANDS TAILINGS MANAGEMENT - A system and method for managing fluid mature fine tailings (MFT) containment volume in a tailings pond to a minimum, fixed steady-state volume by balancing the accumulation of the MFT in the pond with consumption of the MFT from the pond by one or both of spiking the MFT into coarse sand tailings forming a coarse sand beach with trapped fines which is segregating for forming a trafficable deposit or centrifuging MFT from the tailings pond and depositing the resulting centrifuge cake on the coarse sand beach. During the life of the oil sand operation, when the volume of MFT approaches the fixed volume of the tailings pond, MFT is consumed from the pond using both sand-spiking and centrifugation as required. Production of MFT in the pond is also reduced by diverting an underflow from a secondary flotation cell in an extraction plant from the tailings pond to a thickener where the fines-rich thickened tailings from the thickener are beached for subsequent dewatering and reclamation. | 10-04-2012 |

Advantageously, and despite the continued randomness of game outcomes, players tend to believe that the voting scheme impacts the game outcome by skewing the game outcome in the player's favor. Accordingly, the interactive nature of the game is attractive to players especially new and young players having grown up with interactive video games and also provides more experienced players with a new spin on old games. | 08-11-2011 |

20090025553 | ADSORBENT COATING COMPOSITIONS, LAMINATES AND ADSORBER ELEMENTS COMPRISING SUCH COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR THEIR MANUFACTURE AND USE - Using zeolites as the active adsorbent, adsorbent laminates have been fabricated with various sheet supports. These adsorbent laminates have been successfully operated for oxygen enrichment at high PSA cycle frequencies, such as upwards of at least 150 cycles per minute. Methods for making suitable adsorbent laminates are described. The methods generally involve forming a slurry comprising a liquid suspending agent, an adsorbent and a binder. Laminates are made by applying the slurry to support material or admixing support material with the slurry. The slurry can be applied to support material using a variety of techniques, including roll coaters, split roll coaters, electrophoretic deposition, etc. One method for making laminates by mixing support material with the adsorbent slurry comprises depositing the slurry onto a foraminous wire, draining the slurry material, and pressing the material to form a ceramic adsorbent paper. Spacers can be formed on adsorbent laminates to space one laminate from another. The spacer dimensions can be uniform, or can vary along a laminate, such as increasing in height from a first end to a second end of the laminate. Gas flow-through apertures also can be formed on laminates. The laminates are adjacent one another to define flow channel between adjacent bodies, whereby a portion of a gas flowing through the flow channels flows through the apertures to facilitate pressure equalization in the adsorbent structure. | 01-29-2009 |

20090193063 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LEGACY SYSTEM COMPONENT INCREMENTAL MIGRATION - A system and method for legacy system component incremental migration from a legacy system to a new system comprises a read-only ghost or shadow in the new system. When changes are made in the legacy system, the changes are incrementally and automatically migrated to the new system allowing the legacy system and the new system to maintain availability during the migration. The concept of “mastership” is used where a component exists in the “New System”, but is actually mastered in the “Legacy System”. By allowing a sub-component to exist as a read-only ghost or shadow in the new system, and still be mastered/edited in the legacy system, a one-way bridge is provided so that the two systems can interact. The synchronization of the legacy system component is managed so that the ghost component is automatically updated when changes are made to the legacy system component and there is little maintenance that the user needs to do to create the bridge between the two systems. | 07-30-2009 |
20110126171 | DYNAMIC NATIVE EDITOR CODE VIEW FACADE - A method, computer program product and system for providing for the editing of software code in a software model driven development process, the method including the step of providing a plurality of custom native software code editors each in a different software language. The method, computer program product and system also includes the step of moving one of the plurality of custom native software code editors into a code view display area depending on a user selected element, thereby allowing a user to edit the software code relating to the user selected element using the custom native software code editor moved into the code view display area. | 05-26-2011 |

20140014275 | TENSION LINK FOR A BELT SPLICER - There is a need for a tension-link for belt-splicer that is lighter and where damage to the link is more easily detected. The solution is a tension-link ( | 01-16-2014 |
20160089836 | AIR-COOLED BELT SPLICER - Cool-down time is menimized by the use of a cooler having integral fins of high surface area, and the use of high-efficiency fans. Heat-up time is minimized by the low mass of the cooler, and the prevention of transmission of heat to the housing. | 03-31-2016 |

20100263957 | Vehicle Hood Apparatus - A vehicle hood apparatus includes a hood member, an actuating mechanism, a vehicle collision detecting sensor, vehicle speed sensor, and a control unit. The actuating mechanism couples said hood member to the vehicle and is operable to position said hood member between a first position where said hood member is not shielding at least a portion of a windshield of the vehicle, and a second position where said hood member is shielding at least a portion of the windshield of the vehicle. The vehicle collision detecting sensor is operable to output a collision signal corresponding to a detected collision with the vehicle. The vehicle spend sensor is operable to output a speed signal corresponding to the speed at which the vehicle is moving. The control unit operates said actuating mechanism to move said hood member from said first position to said second position upon receiving said collision signal indicating a collision with the vehicle, and receiving said speed signal corresponding to a vehicle speed above a threshold speed. | 10-21-2010 |

20080252042 | Pivoting Hitch Assembly - A hitch assembly that comprises a coupling tongue with a first end and a second end, a substantially U-shaped clevis that is substantially flat in cross section, pivotally coupled to the second end of the coupling tongue by a hitch pin, and an opening formed by the coupling tongue and the clevis, sized to receive a towing member. The hitch assembly is particularly suited for connecting a tow strap or belt to a commercially available tubular trailer hitch receiver, for use in towing operations. | 10-16-2008 |
20110074133 | PIVOTING HITCH ASSEMBLY - A clevis pin combination comprises a clevis made of aluminum alloy; and a pin made of steel. This combination of parts and materials results in lighter weight and improved performance of maximum load carrying capacity over similar combinations of all aluminum or all steel. The clevis further comprises a first clevis leg having a first clevis aperture in a first clevis end and a second clevis leg having a second clevis aperture in a second clevis end. The second clevis end is spaced apart from the first clevis end forming an open end. A curved portion connecting the first clevis leg and the second clevis leg forms a closed end. The first clevis aperture and the second clevis aperture are axially aligned and the steel pin is sized to fit through the first clevis aperture and second clevis aperture allowing pivoting movement between the clevis and the pin. The clevis may be substantially U-shaped. At least the curved portion of the clevis may by significantly wider than it is thick, such that it is flat in cross-section. Alternatively, the clevis may by significantly wider than it is thick, such that it is flat in cross-section. The curved portion or the entire clevis may be formed of a single piece of solid aluminum bar stock bent into a U-shape, forming a weldless and seamless U-shaped clevis. | 03-31-2011 |
