Filed:

Oct 17, 2002

Appl. No.:

10/130336

Inventors:

Shaffiq Kassab - Encino CA 91436
Mark Hunt - San Diego CA 92101-1452
Robert Hunt - San Diego CA 92101-1452

International Classification:

B60Q 148

US Classification:

3409322, 34053911

Abstract:

An electronic parking meter system is used with parking enforcement personnel and a plurality of parking meters. The system may include parking meter units associated with a respective parking meter, a data unit for gathering data from the parking meter units, a first communication link for transmitting data between the parking meter units and the data unit, at least one parking enforcement unit associated with the parking enforcement personnel, and a second communication link for transmitting data between the data unit and the parking enforcement unit. The first communication link may be a unidirectional link, allowing the meter units to include a transmitter and be free of a receiver circuit or receiving functionality. In this manner, the meter units may be made relatively inexpensive, thus significantly reducing the overall cost of the system when connected with many meters.

International Classification:

H04J 1/16

US Classification:

370252, 370241, 370242, 725108, 709224, 714100

Abstract:

A method and system for providing automated diagnostics of networks using multiple virtual circuits are disclosed. For example, the method receives a ticket indicating a problem. The method then determines if the problem is associated with a configuration mismatch and determines if the problem is associated with at least one physical channel supporting a plurality of virtual circuits. The method then verifies status of each of the plurality of virtual circuits if the problem is not associated with the configuration mismatch or the at least one physical channel. The method then reports a result of verifying the status of each of the plurality of virtual circuits.

International Classification:

H04J 1/16

US Classification:

370242, 370252, 370216, 725105, 709232

Abstract:

A method and system for providing automated diagnostics of networks using multiple physical channels are disclosed. For example, the method receives a ticket indicating a problem and attempts to identify at least one physical channel of the network that is a potential cause of the problem. The method runs at least one diagnostic test on the identified physical channel and reports a result of said diagnostic test.

Filed:

Feb 16, 1994

Appl. No.:

8/197934

Inventors:

Thomas M. Dennis - Houston TX
Mark Hunt - Houston TX

Assignee:

Dennis Tool Company - Houston TX

International Classification:

E21B 1036

US Classification:

1754202

Abstract:

An improved bifurcated drill bit is set forth. It has a shank for connection with a chuck, a cylindrical head having an outer face, and duplicate cutter faces. Each cutter is formed of PDC inserts which are cylindrical (or segments thereof). The PDC inserts are formed from a circular disk or ring which has an alignment hole in the center. When mounted, the insert presents a PDC face which bears against the drill hole. The drill hole is formed by cutting action of the inserts. Impact and shock loading occurs at the PDC surface.

Inventors:

Thomas M. Dennis - Houston TX
Mark Hunt - Houston TX

International Classification:

E21B 1058

US Classification:

175428

Abstract:

A spade in a bit body is disclosed to have a planar body shaped with two intersecting cutting faces. The cutting faces extend to side faces defining spade width for cutting a hole to gauge. Inserts positioned in the body are at the comer of the spade. The inserts are formed of very hard material, and provide longer life.

US Classification:

148243, 148280

Abstract:

Methods of reducing an initial cross-sectional area of a hole in a component to a predetermined cross-sectional area including preparing a composition comprising at least an aluminum alloy with a melting temperature higher than aluminum, applying the composition to an interior surface of the hole, and then heating the component to cause a metal within the component to diffuse from the component into the composition and react with the aluminum alloy in the composition to form a coating on the interior surface of the hole. The heating step is performed to selectively modify the initial cross-sectional area of the hole and thereby directly attain the predetermined cross-sectional area thereof.
