Filed:

Jan 3, 2002

Appl. No.:

10/038132

Inventors:

Grant William Ayo - Houston TX
David Eric Hanson - Katy TX
Barry Joe Beadle - Sprint TX
Anthony Allen Giacobbe - Spring TX
Mark Alan Payne - Houston TX

Assignee:

S S Trust - Commerce City CO

International Classification:

F16H 6138

US Classification:

477 54, 477 63, 477110

Abstract:

A system and method for the soft shift of a transmission connecting a power source to a well stimulation pump through a transmission. When it is desired to change gear ratios in the transmission, the transmission is caused to enter a torque converter mode from a lockup mode. The engine speed is adjusted according to a signal representative of the speed of the transmission output shaft. Once the gear ratio has been changed, the transmission is caused to enter a lockup mode from the torque converter mode.

International Classification:

F25D 3/08

US Classification:

624573

Abstract:

A thermally conductive polymeric drinking surface for a beverage container is provided. The thermally conductive polymeric drinking surface may be an insert for a bottle or other covering configured to be formed around the mouth of a drinking container, such as a cup. The high thermal conductivity of the drinking surface contributes to the transfer of the temperature of the contents of the container to the mouth or lips of the consumer by reducing the time and energy consumption of the chilling processes being applied via the beverage or an external cooling mechanism.

Appl. No.:

10/190939

Inventors:

Grant Ayo - Houston TX, US
David Hanson - Katy TX, US
Mark Payne - Houston TX, US

International Classification:

G01R001/04

US Classification:

324/156000

Abstract:

A hardened process controller is encapsulated within a block of translucent material. Changes in the way the process controller transforms electrical input signals are effected by sending an optical signal through a portion of the translucent block to an optical receiver also encapsulated within the block of translucent material. Included within the block of translucent material is a digital display and electrical componentry selected for low heat output.
