Manufacturing productivity scoreboard

A system for displaying manufacturing productivity information, including a controller connected to a display device, a momentary actuator and a display. The controller records a plurality of cycle times between sequential actuations of the actuator and stores the cycle times in a library. The controller maintains a count of actuations that have occurred since reset of the timer and records time passed since the reset. The controller determines a median value of the cycle times and multiplies the median value of cycle times by the count of actuations to obtain a resulting value and subtracts the resulting value from the total time since the last reset to determine a value for total downtime. The controller activates the display to show the value for total downtime.

Local produced oil dehydrator

A portable, semi-portable, or permanent system for removing BS&W from crude oil at the local production or bulk storage site. A demulsifier is added to the crude as it enters a low shear pump which pumps the mixture through a plate and frame type heat exchanger where the incoming crude is preheated using outgoing heated and dehydrated crude. Then the incoming crude enters an oil-water separator where it is further heated by a secondary heater within the separator and passes through a special coalescing section. Water and basic sediment separate from the crude are discharged from the bottom of the separator. The heated dehydrated crude exits the separator, flows back through the heat exchanger where it is cooled as it preheats incoming crude, and then is pumped to clean oil storage. BS&W and flow monitors on the incoming crude and outgoing crude are used to control operation of the system.

Three dimensional tiled deck accessories

A modular system for creating multi-level areas on pedestal supported tiled decks for use as platforms, plinths, benches, seats, tables, planters and other accessories which utilize standard floor tiles for the visible horizontal surfaces. Standard floor tiles can be used through the use of an enabling component called a “frame”. Tiles fit in the frames. The system also uses square or rectangular box shaped modules which fit under or in the frames. A frame holds the modules together in a horizontal plane and supports additional modules in a vertical plane. The completed accessories appear to be built-in and to be a part of the deck but they can be easily relocated or expanded both horizontally and vertically. The accessories can be used on any deck, patio, rooftop or recreational surface.

Network telephone system and methods therefor

One embodiment of the present invention includes a telephony interface, a network interface and a local area network (LAN). The telephony interface provides connectivity between one or more netphones and an external telephone network such as a PSTN telephone system. The network interface provides connectivity between one or more computers and an external computer network such as the Internet. The local area network provides interconnectivity between the netphone(s), the computer(s), the telephony interface and the network interface. In some embodiments, there may be two or more netphones which can communicate with each other internally via the LAN, in addition to communicating with the external telephone network. Similarly, there may be two or more computers that can also communicate with each other internally via the same LAN, in addition to the external computer network. By combining both the internal and external connectivity needs of both the netphone(s) and computer(s), the entry cost of installing both the netphone(s) and the computer(s) is dramatically lowered. In addition, once the network infrastructure has been installed, the existing netphone(s) and computer(s) can be very easily relocated within the network, and new netphone(s) and computer(s) can be added to the network with minimal changes to the network.

Measurer and pip displacement processing program

The present invention provides a surveying equipment capable of freely transferring a marking point to a plurality of places in the vertical direction or the horizontal direction, without measuring a horizontal distance by using a measure, without moving this surveying equipment by one surveying equipment. The marking point on a floor surface 16 is collimated by a telescope of the surveying equipment. An oblique distance L1, a horizontal angle and a zenithal angle are measured, and a horizontal distance D1 up to the marking point from a machine point PO is calculated from these measured values, and the horizontal angle H1 and the horizontal distance D1 are set as an initial value. Afterwards, an oblique distance L, a horizontal angle H and a zenithal angle V are measured on a collimation point P by turning the telescope toward the vicinity of a transfer point P2 of the ceiling 18, and a horizontal distance D is determined from these measured values. A deviation ([Delta]D = D-D1) from the initial value of the horizontal distance and a deviation ([Delta]H = H-H1) from the initial value of the horizontal angle are also calculated and displayed. Here, when both deviations [Delta]D and [Delta]H become zero, the transfer point P2 is indicated by a laser pointer.
