Abstract

A manufacturing/process control system information access provider architecture is disclosed. Manufacturing/process control system data provider flexibility is achieved through a user-configurable manufacturing/process control information portal server that comprises multiple selectable data provides (sources) and/or data types that a particular data provider accommodates. A user configures the portal server to deliver manufacturing/process control information associated with a controlled process environment, such as a food processing plant floor or an oil refinery reactor, to the user via a browser client over the Internet or a corporate intranet. Furthermore, an extensible architecture is provided that enables adding new components to the portal server. Such extensions include new data sources and new data types/handlers. The new architecture enables a user to select particular ones of the available data handlers and then their associated data sources thereby facilitating customizing the configuration of the portal server to the particular needs/interests of the user.

Abstract

In one embodiment, a combustor includes a nozzle coupled to the combustor body at or near the exhaust opening to choke the exhaust opening. In another embodiment, a combustor includes a diverting plate positioned radially inward of the inlet annulus and inlet channels for diverting flow of a mixture in an axial direction. In another embodiment, a combustor includes a combustor body including an outer shell at least partially defining a combustion chamber and extending axially from a hollow base toward an exhaust opening of the combustion chamber. The hollow base defines a passageway in fluid communication with the combustion chamber and includes an inlet annulus for axially directing a first fluid into the passageway and a plurality of inlet channels for radially directing a second fluid into at least one of the passageway or the combustion chamber, and the combustion chamber is free of any inner body.

Abstract

A tip assembly includes a tip having a nose portion. The tip defines a central bore. The nose portion includes a lip portion and defines a counterbore. The counterbore has a counterbore side wall and a seat surface. The counterbore is contiguous with the central bore. An insert member includes an inner surface, an outer surface and a side wall. The inner surface is opposite the outer surface. The side wall interconnects the inner surface and the outer surface. The insert defines a central aperture that extends from the inner surface to the outer surface. The insert is disposed within the counterbore such that the central aperture is substantially concentric with the central bore of the tip. The lip portion of the tip engages the outer surface of the insert.

Claim

What is claimed: 1. A cross head die assembly, comprising: a die holder; a tip holder disposed at least partially within said die holder; a tip assembly, comprising: a tip received at least partially within said tip holder, said tip having a nose portion, said tip defining a central bore, said nose portion including a lip portion and defining a counterbore, said counterbore having a counterbore side wall and a seat surface, said counterbore being contiguous with said central bore; and an insert member having an inner surface, an outer surface and a side wall, said inner surface being opposite said outer surface, said side wall interconnecting said inner surface and said outer surface, said insert defining a central aperture extending from said inner surface to said outer surface, said insert disposed within said counterbore such that said central aperture is substantially concentric with said central bore of said tip, said lip portion of said tip engaging said outer surface of said insert; and a die member received at least partially within said die holder, said tip being received at least partially within said die member. 2. The die assembly of claim 1, wherein said insert is constructed of a non-metallic material. 3. The die assembly of claim 1, wherein said insert is constructed of a material comprising synthetic diamond. 4.

Abstract

Embodiments are described for a method and system of applying data protection software mechanisms to network devices to auto-discover the networking equipment, save changes from memory (TCAM) to local storage, backup changes to protection storage, provide auditing and tracking history of changes, and provide the ability to deploy test/development copies of changes using software defined networking techniques. Embodiments include an efficient visual mapping aspect provided through a GUI to display the topography and backup/protection configuration of network devices in a system.
