77 results about "Stress bone" patented technology

Bones are constantly attempting to remodel and repair themselves, especially during a sport where extraordinary stress is applied to the bone. Over time, if enough stress is placed on the bone that it exhausts the capacity of the bone to remodel, a weakened site—a stress fracture—may appear on the bone.

Method for stress and stability related measurements in boreholes

A method for the measurement of the stresses and pressure perturbations surrounding a well, and a system for computing the optimum location for initiating a hydraulic stress fracture. The technique includes using sensors attached to the wellbore casing connected to a data analyzer. The analyzer is capable of analyzing the stresses on the well system. Using an inverse problem framework for an open-hole situation, the far field stresses and well departure angle are determined once the pressure perturbations and stresses are measured on the wellbore casing. The number of wellbore measurements needed for the inverse problem solution also is determined. The technique is also capable of determining the optimal location for inducing a hydraulic fracture, the effect of noisy measurements on the accuracy of the results, and assessing the quality of a bond between a casing and a sealant.

Lightweight tile with tapered support

The present invention is directed to a lighweight the with a tapered support angle reverse, to the angle of the roof, a tile having uniform contact with the roof surface that does not require battens and can be walked on without the fear of breaking. This the can be fabricated in several materials including concrete, ceramic, porcelain or clay. By increasing the surface area of the underside of this tile with numerous cavities and ribs, the capability for dissipating heat is greatly increased. The lightweight tile has the option of incorporating a breathable, underlying cushioning / insulating With this system of interlocking and overlapping tiles, when the top tile overlaps the tile below the top tile cantilevers and lays flat on the tile below it, greatly reducing the vulnerability to stress fracture because of the reverse angle and supporting ribs structure of the tile.

Repair apparatus and method for pipe and fittings

Disclosed herein is a repair apparatus and method for pipe and fittings. In one form, the method relates to utilizing fabric-like material which is intermixed with an adhesive. In one form, the adhesive is a two-part adhesive which hardens to a semi-rigid state to avoid stress fractures through repeated expansion and contraction due to physical movement or temperature variation in the pipe and / or fittings. In one form the method and apparatus are particularly useful in thermoplastic pipes. In other forms, the method is particularly useful in metal pipes and fittings, or in non-pipe structures.

ActiveUS7726554B2Eliminate scoring and marking of sheet materialReduce impact stressDigitally marking record carriersPerforating toolsStress boneEngineering
A multiple punch and multiple die assembly has a workpiece protector which is a punch lifter that is operatively associated with each punch for supporting each of the punches in an inactive position as an active punch is moved by the ram to the active, i.e. operating position to thereby eliminate scoring or marking of the sheet material or other workpiece that is being punched. To eliminate the need for hand tools and hand assembly or disassembly, a manually moveable retainer on the punch assembly is provided that can be moved by hand between a punch-releasing and punch-retaining position for holding the punches within the multi-punch assembly during operation. To prevent stress fractures that formerly occurred in die carriers, support of each die is distributed between two different die components thereby reducing impact stress on the carrier as the ram drives the punch through the workpiece.

Method for making a golf club face

An improved face for a golf club head includes shallow and deep markings configured to provide a pleasing appearance when viewed head on, and to frame the central region of the impact surface of the face when viewed at address. Use of only shallow markings in the central region of the impact surface prevents existence of stress fractures resulting from use of deep markings in the central region. This allows for a face thinner than those incorporating conventional grooves in the central regions of their impact surfaces, resulting in both superior resistance to cracking and improved C.O.R. Specified methods of manufacture are particularly suited for making clubs incorporating these shallow and deep markings.

An improved submerged entry nozzle is provided which is useful in the casting of aluminum killed molten steel. The nozzle has an improved slagline sleeve or collar which surrounds the outer portion of the nozzle to protect it from corrosion during the casting process. The slagline sleeve is made from resin bonded zirconia / graphite which has been formulated so that upon curing of the resin to form resite, there is a reduction in the contractile tendency which results in a reduction in stress fracturing. The reduction of the contractile tendency and the resulting resistance to stress fracturing is achieved by adding an effective amount of calcium oxide to the resin-zirconia-graphite mixture which is used to form the sleeve.

Method for making hard pretzels that effectively absorb seasoning slurry

A method for making a hard pretzel product that effectively absorbs a seasoning slurry, such as an oil-based seasoning added after baking. In a preferred embodiment, three dough strands extruded simultaneously are cut and formed into a triad arrangement of three dough rods. Several process steps are used singly or in combination to promote the formation of a stress cracking at the intersection between these three rods in the triad formation. During the final drying stage and a seasoning stage in a seasoning tumbler, this stress cracking is sufficient to allow separation of the three rods into individual pretzel sticks. Each of these pretzel sticks has a longitudinal surface area in the proximity of the original stress fracturing which effectively absorbs a seasoning slurry.

Method and Apparatus for Providing Electrically Isolated Closely Spaced Features on a Printed Circuit Board

A method and apparatus for forming controlled stress fractures in metal produces electrically isolated, closely spaced circuit sub-entities for use on a metallized printed wiring board. A polymeric substrate has a layer of metal adhered to the surface, and the metal layer is formed into entities. Each entity has a fracture initiating feature formed into it, which serves to initiate and / or direct a stress crack that is induced in the metal. The entities are fractured in a controlled manner by subjecting the substrate and the entities to mechanical stress by a rapid thermal excursion, creating a stress fracture in the entity extending from the fracture initiating feature. The stress fracture divides each entity into two or more sub-entities that are electrically isolated from each other by the stress fracture. The resulting structure can be used to form circuitry requiring very fine spaces for high density printed circuit boards. The rapid thermal stress may be induced by a high intensity, strobed xenon arc lamp.
