Filed:

Mar 18, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/378526

Inventors:

Charles C. Conner - Hemet CA, US

International Classification:

G01L 7/16
G01D 11/24
G01B 5/30

US Classification:

73754, 73431, 73763, 73784, 173 4, 173 11, 173 20, 702 42, 702 43

Abstract:

A novel displacement instrument that can be used to measure the density or modulus of an aggregate pier upon which a multistory building or parking garage can be built. The aggregate piers are often 35 feet or deeper. These aggravate piers are constructed by adding lifts of approximately 12 to 18 inches of aggregate at a time and tamping it into the pier forming hole. Each lift of aggregate is being tamped or struck by a force of approximately 15,000 psi or greater. The displacement instrument allows aggregate piers to be constructed having a density or modulus that is consistent from the bottom of the hole to the top of the hole. The displacement instrument would be mounted on the side plate of a hydraulic breaker that is mounted on the end of a boom of a crane. The displacement instrument need not be permanently installed on the side of the hydraulic breaker and it is freely removed and installed on another crane.

Inventors:

Charles C. Conner - Laguna Niguel CA

International Classification:

G08B 2100

US Classification:

340568

Abstract:

An identification marking system for objects involves giving each object its own electronic name tag. The electronic name tag can be specific amount of ferrite material that has been added to the object. An electronic reader system then measures the effect said object has on an identifying circuit as the object passes in close proximity to the identifying circuit. The measured effect is then compared to a pre-established value. The value on the electronic reader system becomes the electronic name tag for this specific object. It is not necessary to add ferrite to the objects to be identified. Most materials have a measurable effect on a variety of electronic circuits. An electronic name tag may well be established by simply placing an object in the vicinity of a particular circuit and measuring the results. The results are then compared to a pre-determined set of values. The results of this comparison will provide an electronic name tag for this specific object.

International Classification:

A63F 13/30

US Classification:

463 42

Abstract:

This invention relates to fantasy leagues or contests to enable the ability to select or change players in real time during the contest. The ability to select or change players is accomplished by synchronization of real event game clocks to a master time clock. Synchronizing the master time clock to the real event game clock provides a chronologically correct method to enable prospective selections or changes. The synchronizing of clocks allows for specific amounts of actual player time to be selected by the fantasy operator during the actual event or prior to its start. The ability to play players in specific amounts of time results in the operator being able to select or change players in an endless number of combinations for teams in leagues or contests.
