Flawed Methods and Inaccurate Results Used to Show ARM CPUs as More Efficient
There used to be a thing called truth in journalism. It meant that when you published an article you should at the very least check your facts if you are presenting it as "news" in the world of editorial articles things are different as an editorial is nearly always an opinion based article with some facts thrown in for furn. What has happened though is that with the introduction of Blogs, Fan Sites and other venues for information some of the fact checking has gone out the window in the effort to be the first to report on a juicy bit of news. When an article hits one of the big sites it often gets spread around the net and becomes the "truth" simply by means of repetition. We have watched this many times (and it is something that Apple's PR and marketing thrive on).
Windows 8 is Here!... Now What?
The tablet wars are going to get very interesting now that Microsoft has pushed out Windows 8 and their "design point" device the Surface RT. Already this morning there are multiple articles about this new OS and hardware from both sides of the argument. It is interesting to see the comments that range across Facebook and other social networking sites about the new OS, and more importantly about Microsoft's Surface RT. This last product has created its own subset of fans and haters outside the general argument about Windows 8. So the big question is, where does Windows 8 and Surface RT stand in the market on the day of the launch, and where do they really fit in?
AMD trying to get the word out about FMA4 and XOP
AMD is an interesting company; on the one hand they have some incredible ideas and can really bring some great features to life. Where they sometimes have an issue is bringing them to market and conclusion. One of the reasons for this is their lack of funds. If you do not have enough money to push your products (like Intel and nVidia usually do) then you have to rely on the community to adopt and support your goals. We have watched this happen multiple times with everything from GPU based Physics (the integration of Ageia PhysX onto the X19xx series GPUs) to OpenCL. AMD shows off what is capable and then due to lack of support and money has to step back and watch as the "rich kids" run off with the toys.
There Is No Such Thing As The "Post PC" Era As They Are All PCs...
Since the rebirth of Apple in 1997 the PC market has had to listen to the constant drone of analysts foretelling the "post PC" world is upon us. It is a common statement made by Analysts that really do not even know what a "PC" is anymore. Well to help some of them do their jobs a little better let's go back and define some of this for them and then take a look at where the market is and why claims of a post PC era are quite simply a falsehood.
Asus shows off at CES 2012... Just a little
CES 2012, Las Vegas, Nevada – We found Asus in the Trump Tower near the top of the building. I honestly think they had the entire floor up there, but we were only there to see a small portion of what Asus has to offer to the consumer. Asus, as most of you know already is one of the leading manufacturers of computer components. They also have their own channel marketing team and make quite a bit more than just motherboards, GPUs, Audio cards and networking gear.
Intel Core Y for tablets
Intel plans to launch another line of processors specifically designed for tablets in the first quarter next year. This is a core chip from their Y series based on the Ivy Bridge architecture and in BGA packaging, while in the third quarter of next year Haswell versions of the same series should appear.
Windows 8 on x86/64 Tablets Could Be The Real Threat to Google and Apple
You would think today was a slow news day as we see people reporting on something we talked about almost a month ago (well really more than that). It seems that people are waking up from the haze of all of the news about Windows on ARM (Windows RT) and starting to realize that x86/64 tablets are going to be much, much more attractive to both consumers, businesses and both manufacturers and developers.
TSMC and Samsung to have 14/16nm FinFET early while Intel delays
According to recent rumors it seems that TSMC and Samsung will be able to push out 14nm full node and 16nm half node FinFET products earlier than anticipated. This is certainly going to be good news for many customers of the two foundry companies including Apple and nVidia.
Intel Already Working on 14nm Process; How Will They Deal With Leakage?
Intel is looking to the future even as their newest CPU, the 22nm Ivy Bridge, is taking something of a beating in the media. According to a few slides that have hit daylight Intel is already working on moving some of its FABs to 14nm in preparation for their next generation of CPUs. Of course this is not that big of a deal really, Intel has moved from one process to the next like clockwork (insert "Tick-Tock" joke here).
Rumors Point to 3x Performance Gain for 3D Graphics in Haswell, But 3x What?
One of the thing things that we find interesting in many leaks and even official documents about upcoming products is the use of percentages and multipliers without much real data. We saw this with Microsoft and their performance claims for Windows 8's new desktop and 3D graphics performance. They used a ton of percentages and yet forgot to list the hardware they were comparing or any of the raw numbers. Not too long after that we saw ARM claim a base 50% performance increase with their next generation Mali GPUs over their current generation Mali GPUs. Again we do not have any real numbers or the basis for these claims. Unfortunately for ARM even a 50% performance increase will not make their next gen faster than some of their competition.

The Algarve region
Carvoeiro was a traditional, small fishing village surviving on the tuna catches but has, not surprisingly, become an incredibly popular resort with visitors and has developed to keep pace.
It's one claim to fame, historically speaking, is that in 1554 a naval battle took place off Cape Carvoeiro when a Portuguese flotilla attacked the Turkish corsair, Xaramet, and destroyed his fleet. Today the most activity you are likely to see is people enjoying the beach and the local fishermen bringing in their catches!
Carvoeiro is very popular for family holidays as there is such a large choice of self-catering accommodation and has all the things you are likely to want in quite a compact area around the town centre. A lot of the accommodation is in new residential areas on the outskirts as the developments have spread, but it is all in keeping - this isn't an area of high rise hotels and apartment blocks.
Praia do Carvoeiro - Carvoeiro's 'Town Beach'The centre of Carvoeiro isn't very big and there are just two roads leading down into the town where they meet in a small square behind the beach. There is no parking in the square since it was given a re-vamp in 2009 so be prepared to find parking up one of the side streets away from the centre.
There are plenty of shops in the town for your everyday needs and because they are used to catering for British visitors you will be able to find most of your normal groceries. There is also a big Intermarché on the Lagoa road on the outskirts of Carvoeiro for even more choice.
The town beach, Praia do Carvoeiro is a beautifully sheltered sandy bay and spreads out just in front of the square with cliffs protecting it on either side. There are bars and cafés ideally placed around the square to still enjoy the view when you leave the beach!
Watersports like jetskis and pedaloes are available at the beach for those who like messing about on the water and there are a couple of diving schools based in Carvoeiro if you prefer to be under the water. The local fishermen also make use of their boats during the day to offer visitors the chance to take boat trips around the coastline and to see the caves.
ne thing you won't be short of in Carvoeiro is somewhere to eat and drink! There is a huge selection of bars, restaurants and cafés all within easy walking distance of the centre and with a wide choice of food. At a guess most visitors give up on the idea of self-catering when they see what's on offer!
The cliff tops around Carvoeiro offer plenty of scope for walking and some great views. You may also come across some 'algares' which are holes in the cliff where the sea has eaten it away from underneath - there are some near the lighthouse at Cabo de Carvoeiro - luckily they are fenced around and it just shows how fragile the cliffs can be. Also on the cliff above Carvoeiro are the remains of the walls of the Fort of Senhora da Conceição dating from the 17th century, inside which is the hermitage of Nossa Senhora da Encarnação (Our Lady of the Incarnation).
Carvoeiro: Fort of Senhora da Conceição The town beach is quite small when it comes to accommodating the numbers of visitors in Carvoeiro during the summer, but there are also some other lovely beaches within easy reach of the town, such as Praia da Marinha and Praia de Vale de Centianes.
Carvoeiro is also ideally situated for family fun days out. There are two water parks within easy reach - the closest being Slide and Splash at Lagoa and Aqualand just slightly further away at Alcantarilha. If water parks aren't for you then there is Zoomarine Sealife park at Guia and Krazy World at Algoz to choose from.
If you have something a little more relaxing in mind, then a trip to Silves is a lovely day out with it's Moorish castle and riverside walks. A walk around the castle walls allows you to have a bird's eye view of the town and surrounding countryside and there are lots of pavement cafés to stop for a cool drink afterwards! There are also boat trips to Silves up the Arade river from Portimão river front which give you about an hour to see a bit of Silves (before the tide is too low to return) for a different view of the countryside.
For the shoppers amongst you then either Portimão to the west of Carvoeiro or Algarve Shopping mall at Guia (near Albufeira) to the east (both about 15 minutes away) offer plenty of chances to spend some money! Even the non-shoppers can enjoy Algarve Shopping - there are plenty of seats in the sunshine and lots of restaurants and cafés in the food hall! It's open until late in the evening, so no need to miss out on beach time either!
Carvoeiro Tourist TrainIf you are venturing to Portimão from Carvoeiro by car, there are plenty of car parks, but the best advice is to use the first one you come to - it has a very confusing road system and much of it is along narrow, one-way streets with cars parked on both sides and a distinct lack of signs! The shopping is particularly good for leather goods, clothes and perfumes.
Twice a week the tourist train that runs around Carvoeiro ventures a little further afield to Ferragudo which is just along the coast on the opposite bank of the Arade estuary to Portimão. It gives you a couple of hours to explore the town before bringing you back.
Of course, there is absolutely no need to leave Carvoeiro at all as there is plenty to do and to see right on the doorstep - it really is a lovely spot and well deserves it's reputation as a top Algarve holiday destination.

No. liltifitii) Claims priority, application Great Britain, Apr. 14, 195i), 13,471/69 11 Claims. (Cl. 277-90) The invention relates to rotaiy contact seals for sealing relatively rotatable members and comprising two cooperating relatively rotatable seal rings which are adapted to be pressed into sealing contact by axial forces and slide one on the other.
Such seals are used for example as shaft seals, one of the rings being rigidly connected with one of the relatively rotatable members, say the shaft, and the other ring (hereinafter termed the axially movable seal ring) being connected to the other of the helatively rotatable members, say the casing, so as to have a limited freedom of axial movement in order to be capable of following axial displacements of the shait.
Such a flexible seal arrangement is generally aimed at in axial seals of the kind to Which the invention relates and a great deal of inventive endeavour has been exercised with the aim of producing an effective seal of this type.
Three basic requirements are involved, viz:
(1) Leakproof connection must be maintained between the axially movable seal ring and the relatively rotatable member which carries it, whether this be the casing or the shaft;
(2) the axially movable seal ring must be so arranged that it can accommodate itself as far as possible to any untrue running of the mating seal ring;
(3) The said connection must be sufficiently strong to resist the pressure differential between the two sides of the seal, especially when the seal is required for use with medium or high fluid pressures, e.g., pressures above 59 lbs. sq. in.
If there is no pressure differential or a low pressure differential as is the casein many applications, the requirements (1) and (2) can be readily satisfied and the requirement (3) is not important, but when medium and high fluid pressures are involved the connection has to be made so strong that the flexibility sufliers badly and this is accompanied by an increasing internal friction. Provision is generally made for balancing the higher fluid pressures to some extent so as to avoid excessivecontact pressure between the rings. The balancing means, however, are effective only if the aforesaid connection between the axially movable seal ring and the casing or other part to which it is secured is sufliciently flexible and I free from friction and in this respect existing designs cannot be considered as satisfactory and the contact pressures between the sliding surfaces of the seal are therefore more or less out of control at medium or high fluid pressures.
The present invention aims at providing between one of the relatively rotatable members and the axially movable seal ring a connection which is nearly free of mechanical friction and the flexibility of which is largely independent of the pressure differential. Furthermore the invention aims to provide a connection so designed that a reliable mathematical treatment can be applied to determining its elastic properties, and consequently a strict control of the contact pressure between the co-operating sliding seal rings is obtainable for all operating conditions. Another important aim is to achieve a seal of a small axial extent which is also widely independent of the magnitude of the fluid pressure to be sealed. The improved seal may therefore be designed to permit of reducing the shaft length.
With these aims in view, in the improved rotary contact seal according to this invention, the axially movable seal ring is radially controlled by a circumferential set, or by one of two or more axially-interconnected oircumferential sets, of juxtaposed leaf springs which have their outer ends fixed and their inner ends free from one another so that they can act as beams fixed at one end and diaphragm sealing means supported by the, or each set of, springs for sealing the said ring to one of the said members or to a ring fixable thereto, but such as will leave the control of the elastic flexibility of the seal substantially to the said springs.
By juxtaposed We mean that adjacent edges of the springs are in contacting or near relationship. The presence of the leaf springs supporting the diaphragm enables a highly flexible diaphragm to be used since its function is merely that of sealing and little or no regard need be had to it in calculating the elastic properties which will ensure correct contact pressures between the seal rings for the estimated fluid pressures.
The seal may have a single set of springs and a single co-operating diaphragm, the inner free ends of the springs radially supporting the axially movable seal ring to which the inner periphery of the diaphragm is sealed and the outer ends of the springs being fixed, and the outer periphcry of the diaphragm sealed, to the said member or a ring fixable thereto.
However, the spring system may be of compound form, i.e., comprise two or more spring sets each with a cooperating diaphragm. An odd number of said spring sets may be provided each with a cooperating sealing diaphragm, interconnected by and sealed to further axially movable rings, so that the inner free ends of the springs radially support inner axially movable rings (one of which is the axially movable seal ring) and the outer ends of the springs are fixed to one or more outer axially movable rings save for the end set remote from that radially supporting the axially movable seal ring, which set is fixed to the said member or to a ring fixable thereto.
Alternatively, two spring sets each with a co-operating diaphragm may be interconnected by and sealed to an axially movable inner ring so that the inner free end of the springs'radially support said inner ring and the outer ends of the springs ofone set are fixed to the axially movable seal ring and of the other set to the said member or to a ring fixable thereto.
Still preserving an even number of spring sets and diaphragms at least two further sets of springs. and diaphragms intermediate the first two (just referred to) and at least one further outer axially movable ringand at least one further inner axially movable ring may be provided, the outer ends of the springs of said intermediate sets being fixed to said further outer ring or rings and the free inner ends of the springs of the several sets radially supporting the inner axially movable rings.
Whether the outer ends of a single spring set are fixed to a fixed member such as the casing of the apparatus or to an outer axially movable ring balanced by the fluid forces, the outer end portions must be positively con strained against fiexure so that the springs Will function, as shown in FIG. 3 of the accompanying drawings (hereinafter referred to). The springs should deviate very little from the straight line when the shaft occupies its normal axial position so as to avoid tendency to snap although they may be slightly preformed in order to give a light pro-load to the axially movable seal ring when in the position as shown for example in PEG. 1 of the drawings.
The fluid pressure applied through the springs may produce the contact pressure against the opposition of the opposing force on the axially movable seal ring, or vice versa.
Provision may be made for retaining the axially movable seal ring and the one of the relatively rotatable members to which it is connected from relative rotary movement.
In certain forms of the seal, the axially movable seal ring may be made up of component rings comprising one ring component having a hub section and a radial flange section and another ring component which is fluid-tightly fixed to the said flange and provides the contact seal face of the said ring concentrically between the inner and outer edges of the tree portion of the diaphragm and so that the radial flange provides an annular face to Which the fluid under pressure can have access to oppose the resultant fluid pressure applied through the diaphragm and springs.
The spring sections may be separate elements or they may project radially inwards from a continuous outer ring and be of truncated sector-like form separated from one another by radial slits or narrow slots, their free ends being arranged to bear on and radially support the axially movable seal ring or the other inner axially movable ring or rings, when present.
To promote the flexing action of the springs without tendency to flex otherwise than in the intended direction the outer supports from which the springs flex may be tangential linear supports, e.g., each formed by the side of a polygonal edge provided by the ring to which the outer ends of the springs are fixed. Alternatively the said supports may be provided by a series of cylinders, rounded rods or needles or the like together defining a straight-sided polygon.
The springs may have straight inner edges, e.g., formed by tangentially truncating the sector like springs previously referred to, which are arranged to bear on straight supports formed by the axially movable ring they radially support. Where more than one spring set is provided each leaf spring of each set may be supported as before described. The leaf spring may be of laminate form.
The springs may be made stiffer in the region thereof adjacent to the outer supports about which they flex, e.g., by providing additionalblade springs fixed adjacent each spring section to extend within the said supports.
The springs at the outer fixed ends may be clamped with the corresponding margin of the diaphragm but this is not essential since the margin of the diaphragm may be separately secured, e.g., by turning the said margin towards the axis of, the seal and holding it by a peened lip.
' The inner periphery of the diaphragm may be held and sealed by providing it with a curved lip secured by a garter spring in an annular groove in the ring to which it is to be connected and sealed. Or a separate ring may secure or clamp an axial flange projecting from the inner periphery of the diaphragm to the corresponding ring.
In order that the invention may be the more readily understood, reference is hereinafter made to the several forms of construction thereof illustrated by way of ex-' ample in the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a longitudinal section through a rotary shaft seal,
FIG. 2 is a section II-II of FIG. 1,
FIG. 3 is a diagram of a single leaf spring section in connection with the axially movable ring,
FIG. 4 is a plan view showing the shape of the leaf spring section,
FIG. 5 shows the same section 11-11 of FIG. 1 as FIG. 2 but with Wider leaf spring sections,
FIG. 6 is a slightly modified design in which the fluid pressure acts on the diaphragm to tend to move the axially movable ring away from the cooperating ring,
FIG. 7 shows a longitudinal section of a rotary pipe union supplied with a seal according to the invention,
FIG. 8 shows end views to FIG. 7 (in general section VIII-VHI),
FIG. 9 is a part sectional elevation of a modified rotary shaft seal, and
FIG. 10 is a part section of another modification.
Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the rotary shaft 1, being one of the relatively rotatable members previously referred to, extends into a stationary casing 2 (being the other member) the interior 3 of which may be filled with a pressurised fluid. A sleeve ring 4 integral With a flange portion 5 is fixed to the shaft 1, the flange 5 beingprovided at its periphery with the. rotary sealing face 6. The co-operating sealing ring 7 is tightly fixed at the periphery of a non-rotating ring which consists of the flange portion 8 and the hub portion 9 through the bore of which the shaft 1 extends with an ample radial clearance 19, the ring 7, 8 and 9 being in this case the axially movable seal ring previously referred to. The inner edge of a flat diaphragm 11 of flexible material located on the pressure side of the springs 15 (hereinafter described) is tightly fixed to the hub 9, the fluidtight connection being obtained, by way of example, by
.means of a pre-moulded edge 12 of the diaphragm 11 fitting into a half circular groove of the hub 9 and pressed against the surface of the groove by a garter spring 13. The diaphragm 11 extends radially out to the circular wall of the casing 2 to which its outer margin is also tightly fixed. This is done in this example by suitably pressing the thicker margin 14 of the diaphragm 11 into a circular recess of the casing 2. In close contact with the external (low pressure) surface of the diaphragm 11 are a number of radial leaf springs 15 the outer ends of which are rigidly pressed against the end face 16 of a larger recess of the casing 2 by means of the spigot 17 of the cover 13. The inner ends of the springs 15 are loosely accommodated in a circular space between the diaphragm 11 and a small shoulder 19 of the ring 8, 9. As shown in FIG. 2 the radial leaf springs 15 may be formed by cutting or stamping narrow radial slots 20 out of a ring 21 of spring steel.
It'will be seen from the above description that the springs 15 are uniformly loaded by the fluid pressure obtaining in the space 3, via the diaphragm 11, the latter providing the fluid-tight connection between the casing 3 and the axially movable ring 7, 8, 9. The diaphragm 11 has to be sufliciently strong to be capable of bridging, under pressure, the gaps 20 which, in turn, should be as narrow as possible. Then the diaphragm 11 can be made so thin that its elastic properties do not influence the system. These properties are therefore exclusively determined by the shape and the thickness of the springs 15 as well as by the physical properties of the spring material.
The acting forces are more clearly indicated in FIG. 3 which represents a diagram of the effect underlying the design of the seal according to the invention. As the diaphragm 11 is presumed to bear no influence on the system it is not shown in this diagram. Each spring 15 can be considered as an elastic beam rigidly fixed at its outer end between the parts 2 and 18 supported at its free end by the shoulder 19 of the sleeve 9. When uniformly loaded by the fluid pressure p the elastic deformation (deflection) of the spring 15 will be approximately as shown in an exaggerated scale. As the length l and the variable width b of the spring (see FIG. 4) are given the thickness required to withstand the working pressure, p can be determined. Also the supporting forces F and F can be calculated, the former being of less practical interest, but F is the force which would also act upon the two cooperating sliding surfaces if the ring 7 were to have the same diameter as the hub 9. For medium and higher pressure p it will be desirable to reduce the contact pressure, and this is done by adding the flange portion 8 to the hub 9 and by fixing the sealing ring to the periphery of this flange. Then, the fluid pressure acting upon the right hand side of the flange portion 8 opposes the force F so that the resulting contact pressure C is the difference between F and the pressure'load on the flange 8. As the force F is known the radial width r of the flange 8 can be so determined that any desired contact pressure C is obtainable by more or less balancing the force F It is a very favourable feature in this design that, due to the rigid fixing of the outer ends of the leaf springs 15, and in consequence of their tapered shape in the face view the supporting force F is considerably smaller than F pressure load on the springs need be balanced by the counterpressure on the flange 8 so that the radial extension r of the latter can be considerably smaller than the length l of the leaf springs 15. I
Following common practice a certain pre-loading is applied by the springs 15 to the relatively rotating sealing members 7 and 5 so that they remain in close contact while no fluid pressure is present.
In order to ensure the correct flexibility of the springs their fixed ends are supported along straight lines as indicated in FIGS. 3 and 4 by reference number 22. When a large number of narrow springs are used as shown in FIG. 2 a circular line 22 may be acceptable instead as the supporting section for each spring deviates very little from a straight line. However, a large number of radial slots are not desirable for higher pressures, and when ap plying a small number of wider springs as shown in FIG. 5 the supporting line 22 should be a polygon, the radial slots 259 matching with its corners. The shape of the shoulder 19 supporting the inner ends of the leaf springs is of lesser importance. in PEG. 2 the shoulder 19 has a circular shape. in PEG. 5 it is formed as a polygon in connection with the wider springs.
The axially movable seal ring 7, ti, 9 is held in its radial position relative to the shaft 1 by the inner edges of the leaf springs 15 which loosely touch the outer cylindricfl surface of the hub 9, see FIGS. 1, 2 and 5.
Means are provided to prevent rotation of the ring 7, 8, 9 under the influence of friction between the surface 6 and the sealing ring 7. By way of example the cover 13 is fitted with a radial rib 23 which extends into a radial groove 24 at the periphery of the flange 8, see FIGS. 1, 2 and 5 The features of the invention shown in FIG. 1 have been applied in FIG. 6 to a centrifugal pump. Let 25 be a part of the impeller shroud, then the pressurised fluid occupies the space 26 between the shroud 25 and the pump casing 27. As compared with FIGS. 1 and 3 the pressure now acts in the opposite direction upon the leaf springs H and the flange 8. Therefore the'flexible diaphragm lll is situated at the right hand side of the springs 15, and the shoulder supporting the ends of the springs 15 is represented by a spring ring 28 fixed in a groove at the outer end of the hub portion 9. It will be seen that, in this arrangement, the pressure acting upon the springs 15 will tend to lift the seal ring 7 off the cooperating contact face 6. This is prevented by determining the radial extension of the flange 8 so that the spring load is overbalanced, and a positive contact pressure of the desired magnitude is obtained.
In FIGS. 7 and 8 a seal according to the invention is shown applied to a rotary union which serves to prevent leakage when conveying a fluid through a stationary duct into a rotary machine. The pipe 29 which may be part of the rotary machine is supported by bearings one of which is indicated by reference number 39. The bearings are accommodated in a stationary casing 31 to which is fixed a cover 32. The latter includes a section 33 of the stationary fluid duct. In this example the seal shows some modifications the purpose of which is to ensure an easy manufacture and an improved assembly. Another object of this design is to improve the flexibility of the springs Therefore a relatively small portion of the total by using two layers 34, 35. The layer 35 is situated'at the low pressure side and it supports the main spring 34 in the region of the highest bending moments only. The outer ends of the springs are rigidly fixed between two strong rings 36, 37 the latter being pressed into a cylindrical recess of the former and secured by rolling the outer edge 33 of the recess against a chamfer of the ring 37. The flexible diaphragm 39 is provided with an outer'margin 40 of a conical shape which fits into a corresponding groove of the ring 37. The tight connection is obtained by rolling or pressing the thin outer wall 41 of the groove against the margin 46. The inner cylindrical edge 44 of the diaphragm 39 is tightly fixed to the hub portion42 of the ring 43 by means of a spring ring or a hose clip 45. The supports of the outer ends of the springs 34, 35 along straight lines as (FIG. 8) are ensured by small cylindrical needles 47 as used in needle bearings. The needles are located in a circular groove 48 of the ring 36. This arrangement ensures a very accurate support of the springs without requiring any difiicult machining. The ring 43 is secured against rotation by one or two elongated leaf springs 49 (FIG. 8) the inner ends of which bear against flat faces 50 at the outer surfaces of the hub portion 42. it will be seen from the above description that the new seal can be manufactured as a separate and self-contained unit which is suitably accommodated, in this example, in a recess of the cover 32. The central bore of the ring 43 forms a part of the fluid passage in this application.
The flexibility of the system can be further increased by replacing the single set of leaf springs by a bank (i.e., a larger number of layers) of very thin springs.
Another means yielding an improvement in this respect is to arrange a number of sets of springs in series, thus arriving at a design which could be called a compound embodiment of the invention. FIG. 9 is a diagrammatic drawing of a, compound seal including three sets of springs, through any larger number of sets could be used if required. Each set of springs 51, 52, 53 and the adjacent diaphragrns 54, 55, 56 are fixed at their outer ends and formed at their inner ends basically in the same way as shown in FIG. 1. Following the principle underlying this type of seal the first set of springs 51 with its diaphragm 54 are fixed to a ring which is located between the casing 2 and the cover 18, this ring consisting, by way of example, of two sections 57, 58 held together by rivets 59. A soft seal ring 663 prevents any leakage along the contacting surfaces of the casing 2 and the ring 57/58.
The inner ends of the springs 51 and 52 and the inner edges of the diaphragms 54 and 55 are connected with the axially movable ring 61 while the outer ends of the 53 and the diaphragm as are connected as in FIG. 1, with the axially movable seal ring viz., to the hub portion 9 of the ring 8 which carries the seal ring 7. It is advisable.
to give the outer ring a radial support, and for this purpose its section 62 is provided with a narrow flange 65 fitting loosely in the cylindrical section 66 of the cover 18. Thefluid pressurein the spaces 3 acts upon each set of springs in the same way as shown in FIG. 3. It will be seen that the forces F of the first two sets of springs 51, 52 balance each other, and so do the forces F of the second and third set of springs 52, 53. The final force P of the springs 53 is more or less balanced, as required, by the fluid pressure acting upon the end face of the ring 7, 8, 9. Thus, the contact pressure between the cooperating members 7 and 5 can be determined in the same way as for the simple seal (FIG. 1) but the axial flexibility expressed by the axial displacement (inches) per pound of contact pressure is n times as large as 7" that of the simple seal, "11 indicating the number of sets of springs used.
FIG. shows an example of a compound seal with two sets of springs 51, 52 and diaphragms 54, 55 the seal being applied to a rotary pump or compressor, similar to FIG. 6. Fluid pressure therefore obtains in the space 26 between the impeller shroud 25 and the casing 27, and also in the space 67 which communicates with 26. Again the first set of springs 51 and the diaphragm 54 are rigidly fixed to the stationary ring 57, 58 while the outer ends of the springs 52 and the diaphragm 55 are fixed between two rings 68,69 rigidly fixed to each other in a suitable way. The ring 69 extends radially inwards and carries near its inner edge the seal ring 7. The two diaphragms 54, 55 are made integral with a cylindrical section 70 so that no special fixing of the inner edges of the diaphragms to the ring 71 is needed. Considering now the acting forces it will be seen that the forces F (see FIG. 3) of the springs 51, 52 hearing against the shoulder 72 and the spring ring 73, respectively, balance each other. The contact pressure can be determined, in this example, as the difference between the force P of the spring 52 bearing upon the outer edge of the ring '69 and the counteracting pressure load on the end face of the ring 69.
It will be understood that in these compound seals each set of springs may consist of a number of thin layers which means a further increase in the flexibility. Furthermore the improved constructional details shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 can be applied.

Behind the crown
Perfectly poised with a permanent smile displayed, she nervously holds her breath as she awaits the opening number alongside girls from almost every country in Arkansas.
Kelsey Dow, a junior at the time, carried a sash across her body reading Craighead County as she danced her way across a brightly lit stage in a sparkly dress.
It was her first time to ever compete in the Miss USA pageant system, and her very first time to compete for the title of Miss Arkansas USA.
Although Dow competed in the pageant expecting nothing but experience, her world began to change as the contestants were steadily weeded out and Dow remained.
Winning wasnt in the cards for me, Dow said. It was my first time there, I didnt expect anything.
Dow continued through the pageant until there were only five girls left. As each runner-up was handed flowers and plaques, Dows practiced smile became shock as she realized she was the last one remaining with no award yet.
I think you could see the surprise on my face in the pictures of that night, Dow said. I came in thinking I had no chance, and I was crowned as Miss Arkansas USA at the end of it all.
Flashback 18 years and Dows toddler years began as most beauty queens do: with dance.
At the age of three, Dow had already become a mini-master of tap, ballet and jazz dance; the latter of which she would use in several pageants, and win.
Although she had the potential for a successful, and early, beginning in the pageant world, Dow wouldnt compete at a young age.
I wanted to do pageants when I was little, Dow said. My mom always told me that they were out of season.
Now, her family is her biggest group of fans, but it wasnt always that way.
They didnt see the educational aspect at first, Dow said. Its a lot of money and very time consuming. It wasnt until they saw the philanthropy and giving back that was involved, that they actually started to support the idea.
In fact, the Brookland natives first pageant wasnt until her ninth grade year at Nettleton High School.
Miss Raider, Dows first pageant ever, was open to high school girls at NHS.
While most beauty queens have a team composed of hair, makeup and pageant specialists, Dow only had someone to fix her hair.
I had a hairstylist, thats it, Dow said, laughing at the past memory. Luckily, she had done other girls hair for pageants, so she showed me how to walk on stage. After that, I practiced almost every day at home.
For the high school pageant, Dow said she prepared like crazy especially for the onstage question portion.
It worked.
Only a freshman in high school, and fresh to the pageant world, Dow won the competition, beating even the experienced upperclassmen.
It was my first pageant ever, and I won it, Dow smiled.
The Miss Raider Pageant was a precursor to the Miss Northeast Arkansas competition, which she placed First Runner-Up; second place in the pageant world.
Astoundingly, Dow didnt give up on her goal. The following year she returned to take the title, sash and crown.
Finally attaining her long-time goal of being a beauty pageant queen, Dow steadily competed, and won, several small town pageants including the District Fair Queen.
As her college life began, and busy schedule grew, Dow continued to compete.
In only her first year at ASU, she was sponsored by her sorority, Alpha Gamma Delta, and competed in the Miss ASU Pageant, placing Second Runner-Up.
Not discouraged, she came back to the competition her sophomore year, this time sponsored by the Kappa Alpha Order.
Her personalized platform, Texting and Driving: It can wait, moved the judges and audience as she told the heartbreaking story of sorority sister Hillary Davidson.
Davidsons father, Paul, was killed in a car accident where the other driver was texting and lost control of the vehicle.
Davidson rose to action, fighting for Pauls Law, named for her father, which now regulates cellphone usage while driving in Arkansas.
While the personal and localized platform drew the audience in, its easy to say that her kick-ass jazz routine won the show (and the Overall Talent Award).
Leaving the crowd and judges thinking Hot Gam, Dow triumphed that year and took home the title of Miss ASU.
Miss ASU is a preliminary to the Miss Arkansas America pageant, which Dow left with not just one, but two, awards.
As a newcomer to the Miss Arkansas America pageant, Dow won the Alpha Award in the evening gown portion, meaning she was the best of the new pageant competitors. But, she also took home the overall evening gown award, meaning she beat out every girl in that category both rookies and veterans.
After taking home two awards, but no title, Dow went on to compete in Miss Arkansas USA, which she won.
Although the beauty queen competed for both titles, the pageant systems are very different.
According to Dow, the America organization is focused on education, where contestants usually become doctors or lawyers.
However, the USA system is based more on opportunities involving modeling and acting.
Unfortunately, with a schedule packed with modeling, acting and travel, Dow didnt have many options when it came to college.
I won in January, and I had to drop my classes before we started back, Dow said. I was going to constantly be on the go, and I knew I couldnt help my scholarships if I stayed enrolled. So, I put them on hold.
And on-the-go she was. For a year, Dow went across the country modeling, acting and making appearances at several events.
My favorite part was going to all of the school and seeing the girls who thought we were princesses, Dow said. I had never been a role-model before, and I was one to these little girls.
In the final months of her journey, Dow made her last pageant attempt in a long trip to Las Vegas.
Dow, along with several other contestants, was on more than one TV show during that period.
From The Today Show to Live, with Regis and Kelly, with several in between, Dow met quite a few famous characters.
But, at the end of the day, it was a competition, which is exactly what Dow prepared for.
In a whirlwind night, girls were slowly released and Dow remained. Finally, during the announcement of the Top 16 contestants, Dow was shocked once more, along with almost the rest of Arkansas.
To the surprise of almost everyone, Dow took home the Fan Favorite Award, meaning she had the most fan votes of every contestant.
I really didnt expect it at all, Dow said. In hindsight, I remember being really nervous and a body guard patted me on the back and said youll be OK.
After the competition, Dow was approached by Miss USA representatives who told her that she won by a landslide. They wanted to know how she did it.
In reality, it was all thanks to my mom and sister, Dow said. They put paper slips in Sonic bags and with movie theater tickets everywhere. It also helped that I was really involved with the Miss USA system, so I got to know a lot of people.
Flash forward a year later and there is no sparkling trophy case in Dows room. In fact, there is no special display showcasing any awards from her over 20 titles.
Surprisingly, her pristine crowns and satin sashes sit in her attic, gathering dust in their original boxes.
Im not Toddlers and Tiaras, Dow laughed. I dont have a pageant room.
In the absence of a display, the quiet blondes personality is what actually shines through.
Everyone thinks Im really outgoing because I do pageants, Dow said, who is now in her final year of obtaining a degree in communication disorders. Actually, Im really shy.
Even though she is done with her time competing in pageants, she said she enjoys another side of the life.
Im still involved with pageants, Dow said. Only instead of competing, Im on the other side: Judging.

VIDEO: Olaf, Marshmallow and More Featured in FROZEN Hotel Suite
The Hotel de Glace in Quebec City now has a FROZEN-themed suite, featuring Anna and Elsa's bedrooms, Olaf the snowman, and the abominable snowmonster Marshmallow. Watch the video below with FROZEN directors Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee to learn more!
The FROZEN suite at the Hotel de Glace will close March 23, 2015.
With the recent news of a FROZEN-themed ride popping up in Walt Disney World's Epcot, Elsa's crossover into ABC's ONCE UPON A TIME, rumors of a FROZEN stage adaptation, video games and much more, Disney's hit animated musical is still snowballing success.
About Disney's FROZEN:
Walt Disney Animation Studios, the studio behind "Tangled" and "Wreck-It Ralph," presents "Frozen," a stunning big-screen comedyadventure. Fearless optimist Anna (voice of Kristen Bell) sets off on an epic journey-teaming up with rugged mountain man Kristoff (voice of Jonathan Groff) and his loyal reindeer Sven-to find her sister Elsa (voice of Idina Menzel), whose icy powers have trapped the kingdom of Arendelle in eternal winter.
Encountering Everest-like conditions, mystical trolls and a hilarious snowman named Olaf, Anna and Kristoff battle the elements in a race to save the kingdom.

Today is National Coming Out Day.
"For small creatures such as we the vastness is bearable only through love."
I have all the feelings.
I remember being a very confused teen. I was sad, angry and again, confused. No one said adolescences was easy.
Today I'm eternally grateful to be surrounded with support and love. That I am very fortunate to be able to be who I am. I'm reminded that sadly this isn't true for everyone. That there are still people who are forced to deny who they are for many reasons, many in fear they will be abandoned. Or worse, be seriously hurt and killed over who they are.
I hope today encourages people to be true to who they are and know they are loved and they matter, That you are never truly alone. And, thank you to Mr. Kameny and everyone who ever did and does continue to fight for the rights of all LGBTQA individuals.
So today, once again I come out as Queer and Proud.
Plus, closets are for fabulousness, not hiding in.

My background is in Graphic Design, but I have been sewing for over 50 years. When my kids were small, I designed & sewed clothes for them. Later, I also started making original clothes designs for my dogs. A few years ago, I decided to start turning those original designs into Digital PDF patterns that others could use and enjoy.
Now, I enjoy designing & sewing for my grandchildren and my two papillons, Jasper & Lily. I am continually dreaming up new designs, so new patterns are added to the shop frequently. Each of my patterns is designed, digitized & written by me. All patterns go through thorough testing before being released to ensure a quality product for you.

It's just two weeks into the 2014 Moore League baseball season and it's been anything but predictable.
Had someone said after four games that Wilson would hold a three-game lead over perennial power Lakewood, one might call you crazy.
The Lancers (7-5, 1-3) have lost three consecutive league games (Wilson, Jordan, Poly), a statistic so foreign that longtime area fans can't be sure the last time it's happened. The Lancers scored just one run in each of those losses.
Poly (6-8, 2-1) used a solid tag-team effort on the hill from Josh Rios and Paul Estrada to escape their game with the Lancers last week, a 2-1 thriller, but it was a first-inning call that had as much to do with the outcome as anything.
Lakewood's Caleb Lew came to bat with the bases loaded and two outs in the bottom of the first inning and hit a ground ball to third.
The throw to first ended up in right field, and two Lancers crossed the plate. But the home-plate umpire, after hesitating, called Lew out for runners interference to end the inning, take the runs off the board and set off a protest at home plate by longtime Lancers coach Spud O'Neil.
"Our guy was out of the base line, but the first baseman had plenty of room to make the play and didn't, so based on that, I think it was the wrong call," O'Neil said. "With the final score 2-1, that obviously was as big a play as any."
Wilson (14-4, 4-0) is off to its best start since 2007 thanks to dual aces Tyler Radcliffe (4-1, 1.08 ERA) and Josh Goldberg (3-1, 0.50 ERA) and a miniscule team ERA of 1.02.
The Bruins hold a one-half game lead over Millikan (6-8-1, 3-0) and face the heart of their first-round league schedule when they face Poly on Friday and Millikan next Wednesday. Poly (6-8, 2-1) is third, followed by Jordan (6-4, 1-2), Cabrillo (1-6, 1-2), Lakewood (7-5, 1-3) and Compton (1-7, 0-4).
Will Johnston has been a huge spark for coach Andy Hall, with 12 scoreless innings out of the bullpen. Mickey Miladinovich (.423), Max Cauble (.348), Chris Betts (.345) and Goldberg (.340) are off to solid offensive starts.
"We're playing a tough and busy schedule and getting as battle-tested as possible," Hall said. "We're very confident in the depth of our pitching staff, and we feel like we have several guys we can go to in big moments."
Many thought Millikan's chances of competing for a league championship were dashed when sophomore ace Spencer Steer went down with a torn labrum.
Steer might not be able to pitch this year, but his bat has been key to the Rams' quick 3-0 league start.
He's hitting .406 and Millikan's team ERA of 1.59 has coach Scott Glasser's program looking up. Junior pitchers Jacob Alcorn (1.46 ERA) and Jacob Hughey (1.35 ERA) will need to come up clutch over the next two Wednesday night late games at Blair Field when the Rams take on Lakewood and Wilson, respectively.
Without question, the area's greatest early-season story is first-year Jordan coach Roger Penticoff's instant transformation of a Panthers program that for many years toiled around the league's cellar.
