Appl. No.:

09/986308

Inventors:

Hai Tran - Livermore CA 94550

International Classification:

F16L 3304

US Classification:

24279

Abstract:

A low profile pipe leak repair clamp for sealing a leak in a wide range of pipe sizes includes a flexible, circular metal band lined with a sealing gasket. The clamp a tightening assembly comprising a pair of open and close lugs and a nut and bolt for tightening the band around a leaking pipe. Each lug includes an open slot leading to an inner recess adapted to firmly engage a folded end of the flexible metal band, the recess being of such dimensions as to maintain each folded end in its original shape, thus preventing the metal band from being pulled from the slot upon tightening the clamp. Each lug has an upper jaw and a lower pressure jaw forming the slot and recess. The lower pressure jaw is arcuate at its end and its lower surface chamfered downward to the lower lug surface.

International Classification:

F16L 1700

US Classification:

24279, 138 99

Abstract:

A fabricated steel pipe repair clamp having a steel band and interlocking steel lugs having respective tension bars and tightening bolts or studs forming the tightening assembly. The tightening assembly comprises a welded stud lug assembly, and a tension bar lug welded assembly, each having a base plate, and a backup plate. The two folded terminals of the clamping metal band are welded between the base plate and the backup plate forming the respective lug bodies. The laminated weld forming the lug assembly results in a stronger lug body backup plate and provides an even clamping force. An alternative embodiment combines the base plate and the backup plate connected to form jaws. Another embodiment employs an offset backup plate to form the lugs to receive the band ends in a recess formed between the tensioner bars and between the studs shank portions.

Abstract:

Systems and methods for conducting designated reactions that include a fluidic network having a sample channel, a reaction chamber, and a reservoir. The sample channel is in flow communication with a sample port. The system also includes a rotary valve that has a flow channel and is configured to rotate between first and second valve positions. The flow channel fluidically couples the reaction chamber and the sample channel when the rotary valve is in the first valve position and fluidically couples the reservoir and the reaction chamber when the rotary valve is in the second valve position. A pump assembly induces a flow of a biological sample toward the reaction chamber when the rotary valve is in the first valve position and induces a flow of a reaction component from the reservoir toward the reaction chamber when the rotary valve is in the second valve position.

Abstract:

A smart selfie mirror includes a mirror, a lighting source, a camera, and a user interface for operating the lighting source and the camera. The mirror can be used to position oneself in a desired position relative to the camera. The lighting source may be used to provide illumination for purposes of using the mirror and to provide additional light when using the camera. The camera can be used to take a picture or record a video of oneself. In some embodiments, the smart selfie mirror includes a wireless transceiver for receiving commands from and sending data to a connected mobile device or the Internet.
