Chris Osgood earns the Save of the Week (December 27-January 2)
Jan 4, 2011, 6:23 PM EDT
It seems like a good general rule: you hit the 400-win mark and people tend to give you awards. That's what happened last week for Chris Osgood, who crossed that threshold and then received a goal of the night award and ultimately the goal of the week for December 27 through January 2nd.
The best part, though, is that the saves were very impressive.
Many people discount some of Osgood's accomplishments based on the fact that he played behind some outstanding teams in his years with the Detroit Red Wings. It's similar logic to those who try to downplay the achievements of Martin Brodeur. There's certainly some validity to the fact that the two teams were elite, especially if you judge goalies based on individual stats (such as save percentage) as much as – if not more than – more team oriented numbers like wins. (Admittedly, I tend to weigh save percentage more heavily.)
On the flip side, both Osgood and Brodeur flourished in great environments and it seems kind of silly to judge them too harshly for doing so. And when you watch sequences like the one Osgood produced below, it's clear that he wasn't just in the right place at the right time.
Take a look at the poll results before we get to the video.
As you can see, Osgood dominated the voting. Check out video of saves from his 400th win below.

Most goalie stats are team stats. The Hall of Fame is filled with players from really good teams. Coincidence?

Two weeks ago Eurocom added an Intel Core i7 990X processor option to its Panther 2.0 mobile server/workstation. Now the OEM has gone and fed its Panther the Xeon equivalent to that mighty chip, the six-core X5690. Like the Core i7 990X, the X5690 comes clocked at 3.46GHz on each of its six cores and has 12MB of L3 cache, but has two QPI links instead of one, supports ECC memory, and supports 40-bit physical address extensions instead of 36-bit.
Eurocom's Panther 2.0 laptop sits in a PC purgatory place located between a traditional laptop and a desktop system. These are known as desktop replacements, and in case there was any doubt that the Panther 2.0 qualifies, Eurocom has added an Intel Core i7 990X Extreme Edition processor option to the list of CPUs that include both Xeon and Core i7 parts.
Bragging about a 3DMark06 score is like, well, bragging about a 3DMark06 score. But hey, Eurocom didn't just score high on the dated benchmark suite, it set a new record for mobile performance with its new Panther 2.0 notebook, the company said.
When you're trying to figure out the next PC upgrade you should buy, there are at least two ways to go about it. Some people like going through lots of pages of benchmarks, analysis, galleries of the component in various states of disassembly, forum debate, and pictures of fluffy kittens. And that's great, when you have the time. But not everyone does. For people who want a quicker breakdown of choices like which Nvidia video card you should buy, we can condense that into just a couple of pages.

Had a weeks stay at the hotel. The staff were very helpful, courteous & nothing was too much trouble. The room was spacious with 2 bathrooms & a superb bed. We played golf while staying at the hotel & the hotel used their cars to ferry us to the courses & airport. Food was good in the hotel but it was also perfectedly situated for other eating establishments within walking distance of most tourists sites.

Redcoon will be acquired by Media Saturn.
Redcoon, one of Germany's biggest online electronics retailers, is under new management.
This morning, Redcoon, No. 71 in Internet Retailer's Top 300 Europe, was acquired for an undisclosed amount by Media Saturn Corporate Group, a consumer electronics retailer based in Ingolstadt, Germany.
Redcoon, which has been selling online in Germany since 2003, will operate as a separate Media Saturn subsidiary, the company says. Redcoon sells online in 10 countries and expects to generate revenue of about 402 million euros (US$570.7 million) in 2011, says Media Saturn.
The transaction is subject to regulatory review. Redcoon and Media Saturn didn't release an anticipated closing date. "Redcoon has prevailed in its strategy and with its customers very successfully," says Media Saturn co-CEO Rolf Hagemann. "The acquisition gives us access to the pure-player segment in Germany and nine other European countries."
In addition to Germany, Redcoon also operates web stores for online electronics shoppers in Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal and Spain. Redcoon has a base of more than 3 million customers and carries an inventory of more than 24,000 products, the company says. "By integrating into the Media Saturn group, our continued growth will be even stronger," says Redcoon CEO Reiner Heckel.
Media Saturn already operates online at MediaMarkt.de, No. 220 in Internet Retailer's Top 300 Europe. But the acquisition of Redcoon gives Media Saturn access to a bigger online customer base and a deeper inventory. "The company is already an established and reliable player in online retailing and will complement the online activities of Media Markt," says Hagemann.
The acquisition of Redcoons also gives Media Saturn access to new technology and an updated web design. In February Redcoon launch a redesigned web site with improved features such as advanced search and one-click shopping.

COLLEGE BOUND: In N.Y., George Willis writes of amateur golfer Beau Hossler's final U.S. Open score of nine-over, "It was a disappointing ending to a remarkable weekend for the 17-year-old high school junior from Rancho Santa Margarita, Calif." Hossler plans "to attend the University of Texas following his senior year and get his college degree." It is "doubtful any of the major manufacturers will offer Hossler a contract that will entice him to skip college," as those deals are "a thing of the past." CNBC's Darren Rovell said, "If this were 2003, there might be more pressure on him to turn pro. Someone might have been willing to give him $3 or $4 million in endorsements. But this is not that time" (N.Y. POST, 6/18).
ROUNDUP: On Long Island, Kimberley Martin reported Nike has "designed a signature shoe" for Jets CB Darrelle Revis called the "Nike Zoom Revis" (NEWSDAY.com, 6/15). Southern Utah Univ. track & field athlete Cameron Levins has "signed a professional sponsorship deal with Nike." Levins is the NCAA champion in the 5,000 meters and 10,000 meters race (RACERESULSTWEEKLY.com, 6/17).

Christian Benteke has buy-out clause in contract, Tim Sherwood reveals
Post comment
Tim Sherwood has revealed Aston Villa might have no choice but to let Christian Benteke leave this summer because of a buy-out clause in his contract.
All Articles
The 17-year-old winger has been a revelation at Anfield this season and played a key role in the 3-0 win over Wigan at the weekend.
But Sterling, who made his England debut earlier this month, cannot sign a professional contract until he turns 18 next month - potentially opening the door for other clubs to swoop.
Rodgers is unconcerned by that situation because he is confident that the player is enjoying life with the Reds.
"The message is very simple - any club wanting to sign him would be wasting his time," said Rodgers.
"Raheem is in a really good place here. He has been given an opportunity here this season and he is thriving on it and enjoying the work.
"He will tie himself down to a new contract because he wants to be here and he can be a 'great' at this football club.
"We want him to continue to grow, and why would you want to leave one of the biggest clubs in world football? So it's a no-brainer."

(b) an electric take-up motor cooperative with said web for winding said web into a rolled pack thereof, said electric motor being a type motor having a torque-speed relationship substantially corresponding to a constant for the product of motor torque and rotary speed for constant web tension and rectilinear speed, and
(c) means for applying a constant voltage to said electric motor which is such as to put substantially constant tension in said web at any given motor speed
said means for metering said web at constant rectilinear speed comprising:
(a) an electric supply motor, adapted to cooperate with a rolled supply web pack, for metering said web from said pack, and
(b) means for applying a variable voltage to said motor which is such as to cause said supply motor to apply a drag force to said web, said variable voltage being proportional to the difference between a constant and the quotient of the product of the speeds of said take-up and supply motors divided by the square root of the sum of the squares of such motor speeds.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said electric supply motor is a type motor having a torque-speed relationship substantially corresponding to a constant for the product of motor torque and rotary speed for constant web tension and rectilinear speed, and wherein said apparatus includes means for removing said constant voltage from said take-up motor and for applying to said take-up motor a variable voltage proportional to the difference between a constant and the quotient of the product of the speeds of said take-up and supply motors divided by the square root of the sum of the squares of such motor speeds, and for applying to said supply motor a constant voltage, whereby said take-up and supply motors reverse their respective functions and reverse the direction of web travel at constant rectilinear speed and tension.
3. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein said supply and take-up motors are substantially identical.
4. A capstanless transport system for transporting magnetic tape at a constant rectilinear speed and constant tension comprising:

1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates in general to web transport systems and, in particular, to a capstanless transport system for use in metering a web, such as magnetic tape, at constant speed and constant tension.
2. Description Relative to the Prior Art
What is perhaps the most relevant prior art for the present invention is the disclosure of U.S. Pat. No. 3,733,529, issued May 15, 1973, and the corresponding publications "Reel-to-Reel Drive Design for a Cassette Recorder" and "Audio Cassettes Become Digital with Novel Reel-to-Reel Drive" appearing in "Computer Design" of August, 1973, and in a trade publication, respectively. U.S. Pat. No. 3,733,529 teaches, in a capstanless magnetic tape transport system employing take-up and supply motors for driving, respectively, take-up and supply reels, the generation of a control signal corresponding to ##EQU1## where ω1 and ω2 represent the speeds of the take-up and supply motors, respectively. The signal ##EQU2## as taught in the patent, is equated with a signal representing a constant tape speed, the error therebetween being used to control the speed of the system `take-up` motor. Tape tension is maintained by applying to the supply motor a calculated variable "drag" signal that decreases with increasing supply motor speed. By virtue of the teaching of U.S. Pat. No. 3,733,529 the following system performance characteristics have been obtained, as noted in the publication "Audio Cassettes Become Digital With Novel Reel-to-Reel Drive":
(1) tape tension--�0.75 oz.
(2) tape speed variation--�5%
(3) flutter--3%.
Whereas the above-referenced prior art regulates `take-up` by means of the indicated speed control signal, the invention, in a capstanless tape transport system employing take-up and supply motors, employs that same speed control signal to regulate the `supply` motor drag for tape speed control, employing for take-up a motor having a torque-speed characteristic that corresponds to a constant for the product of take-up torque and speed. Such a technique enables a five-times increase in tape speed accuracy, a six-times improvement in flutter, and a one and one-half-times increase in tension regulation over such a prior art.
The invention will be further described with reference to the figures, wherein:
FIG. 1 depicts a torque-speed curve used in the practice of the invention;
FIG. 2 is a schematic block diagram of a tape transport system employing the invention;
FIG. 3 shows a family of curves useful in describing another embodiment of the invention; and
FIG. 4 is a schematic block diagram depicting a presently preferred embodiment of the invention.
Before addressing specific hardware, the following analysis is presented in the interest of clarifying the workings of the invention:
In a capstanless tape transport system employing a take-up motor and a supply (drag) motor for driving, respectively, take-up and supply reels, constant tape speed requires reel angular velocities ω to be inversely proportional to respective tape pack diameters D . . .
Also, for constant tape tension, the torques T of the motors must vary directly in proportion to respective tape pack diameters . . .
Thus, for constant tape speed and tension, a torque-speed characteristic of
results, and is plotted as a solid line in FIG. 1. Given such plot, it is a prime concept of the invention to select a take-up motor having a corresponding torque-speed characteristic, whereby by use of an appropriate supply motor drag control for maintaining constant tape speed, the take-up motor will inherently be forced to an appropriate speed, with complementary torque for constant tape tension. (In other words, the supply motor drag effectively sets the speed of the take-up motor for constant tape speed, and the take-up motor inherently provides the proper amount of torque for constant tape tension.)
To identify a motor having a torque-speed characteristic that matches the "solid line" curve of FIG. 1, consider the following:
Given empty and full reel speeds of ω1 and ω2, the requisite torques at those speeds for the take-up motor will be T1 and T2, respectively. Thus, the slope K of the dashed line α closely approximates the slope of the ideal torque-speed curve within the operating range of interest. Such a slope, in the case of a permanent magnet DC motor, corresponds to the ratio of the motor free-running speed divided by its stall torque. By selecting, for purposes of take-up, a permanent magnet DC motor with the appropriate ratio of free-running speed (point 1, FIG. 1) to stall torque (point 2, FIG. 1) . . . i.e. a motor having a torque-speed curve such as curve β . . . and suitably adjusting the excitation of the take-up motor, take-up as per the dashed line curve α of FIG. 1 will occur.
Referring now to FIG. 2, a tape transport system 8 according to one embodiment of the invention employs a permanent magnet take-up motor 10 which rotates a tape pack 12 so as to pull tape 14 past a record/play head 16. The take-up motor 10 is one having a torque-speed characteristic the slope of which substantially matches the slope of the curve that corresponds to the product of tape pack torque multiplied by tape pack rotary speed when the tape 14 is run at predetermined constant speed and tension. By suitably metering the tape 14 to the tape pack 12 so that the tape 14 has a predetermined constant linear speed, the take-up motor 10, to which a constant voltage E1 is applied, inherently adjusts its torque to keep the tape tension constant.
To assure proper metering of tape at the predetermined constant speed, the invention in a presently preferred form thereof provides a speed control signal ##EQU3## (derived by conventional means 17 from the rotary speeds ωA, ωB of the take-up and supply motors, as taught in U.S. Pat. No. 3,733,529) and equates such signal (difference circuit 19) with a reference tape speed signal, E2, to produce an error signal for so controlling the "drag" of a supply motor 18 that the tape 14, fed from a supply tape pack 20, is metered out at constant tape speed. As in the teaching of U.S. Pat. No. 3,733,529, signals corresponding to the rotary speeds ωA, ωB of the take-up and supply motors 10, 18, respectively, may be provided by a variety of "tachometer" techniques such, for example, as detecting--via bridge circuits 22, 24--the back electromotive forces (emf's) of the motors in question.
It will be appreciated that, whereas the teaching of U.S. Pat. No. 3,733,529 calls for the application of the output of the difference circuit 19 to "drive" the take-up motor 10, the present invention calls for the application of the output of the difference circuit 19 to "drag" the supply motor 18 . . . the take-up motor 10, by virtue of its specific torque-speed characteristic, being free-running save for the reining which it experiences from the supply motor drag. Use of the invention as disclosed above has resulted in the following performance data:
(1) tape tension variation--�0.5 oz.
(2) tape speed variation--�1.0%
(3) flutter--0.5%
which, it will be appreciated, is a significant improvement over the published performance data of the system of U.S. Pat. No. 3,733,529.
Reference should now be had to FIG. 3 which depicts a family of torque-speed curves for a transport system as in FIG. 2, assuming variable tape speed while keeping tape tension constant. Although each such curve in the family is a rectangular hyperbola, all such curves have shapes characteristic of given, but different, constant tape speeds. With tape packs of certain predetermined sizes, the empty and full reel torques which will be required, regardless of tape speed, will be as defined by the FIG. 3 dashed lines associated with the limits T'1, T'2. Since the slope of each of the curves is different between the T'1, T'2 limits, it is apparent that use of a permanent magnet motor as taught above is only practical for a system characteristic of a single tape speed. This is so because of the fact that varying the excitation of a permanent magnet motor has the effect of "shifting orthogonally" the torque-speed curve for such a motor . . . which is to say that there is only one good match between the slope of a permanent magnet motor torque-speed curve and the required system torque-speed parameters. ("Orthogonal shifting" is reflected in the starred notation of FIG. 1.)
Of the various types of motors which are known, a series-wound DC motor has associated therewith a family of torque-speed curves which is similar to and characteristic of the family of curves of FIG. 3. Thus, it is within the contemplation of the invention to replace the permanent magnet motor 10 of FIG. 2 with a series-wound DC motor, thereby to effect (by suitable excitation) the transport of tape at various predetermined speeds. Permanent magnet and series-wound DC motors are alone practical for take-up according to the invention . . . and are generally described, and claimed herein, by and under the expression "motor having a torque-speed relationship substantially corresponding to a constant for the product of motor torque and rotary speed for constant web (tape) tension and rectilinear speed".
For a tape transport system in which the tape is taken up (solely) under control of the motor 10, the design of the supply motor 18 is of little concern, so long as it meters tape at the predetermined tape speed. In the event, however, that the transport system is to be a reversible one, e.g. one in which the motors 10, 18 switch their respective functions, it is essential that both motors be selected, for example, as taught in connection with FIG. 1. For a tape transport in which the tape is to move first one way, then the opposite way, but always at constant speed, the motors 10, 18 would preferably be identical. (See FIG. 4 in which the motors A, B are identical and in which a switch S is provided for converting, at end-of-tape, the normal take-up motor A to a supply motor, and for converting the normal supply motor B to a take-up motor, the speed control for regulating the "supply motor" and the signal E1 being both switched at that time.) For a tape transport in which the tape is to move first one way at one speed, then in the opposite way at a different speed, both motors would have to be selected as taught, for example, in connection with FIG. 1 (i.e. each motor would have to have a torque-speed relationship corresponding to a desired constant tape speed at constant tape tension) and the control voltages E1, E2 would have to be selected accordingly.
The invention has been described in detail with particular reference to certain preferred embodiments thereof, but it will be understood that variations and modifications can be effected within the spirit and scope of the invention.

Elsanna 3-sentence fic prompt (you don't have to if you don't like it, though): from otpprompts, 'Person A, a hockey player, hits Person B, a spectator, in the face with a hockey stick, gives them a broken nose and accompanies them to the hospital, apologising the whole time'
I'll always like Elsanna. It's my OTP of OTPs. :) Sorry if my recent posts have you confused–I haven't come across much Elsanna on my dash lately. Unless you mean the prompt itself? In which case…
…Huh. I've actually been meaning to get to this at some point. Might expand on it in a longer drabble, but for now you'll have to settle for 3 sentences. More to keep myself from taking too much time, haha.
Elsa had never gone to any sporting events during her school career–mostly because there were none available for figure skating–but at Rapunzel's mention of a hockey game nearby, she figured she might as well–better late than never, as the saying goes.
Of course, she never expected to get hit in the face with a cute redhead's hockey stick and subsequently accompanied to the hospital by said redhead, who was stammering apologies and blushing so much, Elsa couldn't really fault her for the broken nose she now had.
Especially with her shy offer of buying her dinner later.
Epilogue: One date turns into many others, and Anna has a habit of kissing Elsa's nose despite it having been fully healed for a while now. At some point, Elsa wants more than just nose-kisses and gives Anna a real kiss.
Everything spirals from there.

NCAA women's notebook: Coaches say Summitt tops in basketball
ROSEMONT, Ill. — Tennessee coach Pat Summitt, whose team beat Tennessee-Martin 72-49 in Saturday's first game, has received a lot of attention this week at the NCAA Tournament and deservedly so. She is a women's basketball icon, the John Wooden of college women's hoops.
She stopped to autograph basketballs and programs for fans after her team's victory and was praised extensively by her fellow coaches.
BYU coach Jeff Judkins has known Summitt ever since his Cougars were beaten by Tennessee in 2002 in the NCAA Tournament.
"She is a legend," Judkins said. "I think that every coach respects what she has done and the way that she runs her program. We were fortunate enough to play them in 2002 in the Sweet Sixteen. We learned a lot, that we had ways to go and had to do some things better."
DePaul coach Doug Bruno, who says he's lost 19 or 20 straight games against Tennessee, and will get another chance Monday night, calls Summitt, "the greatest coach in the history of our sport."
"Not just the greatest women's coach," he said. "This is a thousand wins. She doesn't get recognized without it being qualified — she's won a thousand women's games. She's won a thousand college games. She is the winningest coach in the sport of college basketball and she helped bring this sport, which is still a work in progress."
NO CHANCE: When a reporter asked Tennessee-Martin coach Kevin McMillan if he could ever see a mid-major women's team winning the NCAA Tournament some day, she wasn't expecting his frank response.
"No," he said, referring to the difference in scholarships (15 for women, 13 for men) as the main reason why.
"The higher teams in the power conferences have the better players. Then men don't want to do that. They want to spread it around. Something is going to have to be done concerning the scholarships. But we have already voted it down, which is interesting."
COMPETITION IN TOWN: Not only is Chicago hosting the NCAA women's tournament, it has also been a hotbed for presidential politics this weekend.
The top three presidential candidates, President Barack Obama, Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum, were all in town Friday. The Republican primary is set for Tuesday.
In fact, on Friday, Romney wasn't far from where the BYU basketball team is staying as he spoke at the Pancakes Eggscetera restaurant in Rosemont to 100 or so supporters. Santorum spoke at a gathering a few miles away at a school in Arlington Heights, while Obama spoke at a fundraising luncheon in downtown Chicago.
Then there were the St. Patrick's Day festivities in downtown Chicago Saturday, which attracted thousands who saw the green-dyed Chicago River and watched the annual St. Patrick's Day parade.
NCAA NOTES: BYU had a nice contingent of fans among the 4,161 in attendance, including President Cecil Samuelson and athletics director Tom Holmoe. ... This was BYU's ninth NCAA appearance and first since 2007. The Cougars are now 3-9 all-time in NCAA games. ... BYU only played seven players for the first time all year Saturday as Stephanie Vermunt and Jennifer Hamson were the only players to join starters Kristen Riley, Lexi Eaton, Kim Parker, Haley Steed and Dani Peterson.

No more eating wetas, drinking his own urine and almost freezing to death on TV show Man vs. Wild for Bear Grylls.
The British adventurer and star of survival show Man vs. Wild, has been fired by US cable television network Discovery Channel in a contract dispute.
Grylls, 37, who was dropped into hostile places to survive by eating insects, wading rapids and drinking his urine, has hosted the TV show since 2006, becoming a celebrity around the world.
But Discovery Channel said today that "due to a continuing contractual dispute with Bear Grylls, Discovery has terminated all current productions with him."
Grylls was in New Zealand to film two episodes for his show on the South Island when the devastating earthquake hit Christchurch on February 22 last year.
"I was on a traverse - a big river with a wire across it - and the whole thing was wobbling. I got to the other side and the crew said the whole ground was shaking," he said.
Grylls, who is known to eat some daring things during his travels, also says he tasted one of the worst things he has ever eaten while in New Zealand - the tree weta.
"I thought it should be fine - I've eaten a lot of things like this. But it took me completely left field. I've never tasted something that tastes like you would imagine poo would taste."
He went on to raise money for both the families of the Pike River miners and the Christchurch earthquake relief.
A spokesman for Grylls said he and Discovery had been unable to reach agreement on new programming and had parted ways.
"Bear's goal has always been to make life-empowering shows for his many fans around the globe, and he has taken great risks to bring Discovery such award winning programming over seven seasons," said Heather Krug, publicist for the wilderness expert.
"Unfortunately, Bear and Discovery have not been able to come to mutual agreement on new programming, and he disagrees with Discovery's decision to terminate current productions. Bear has loved the Man vs. Wild journey and looks forward to producing further cutting edge content again soon for his loyal audience."
The details of the dispute were unclear but trade publication The Hollywood Reporter quoted industry sources as saying it revolved around two unannounced projects for which Grylls was contracted.
The sixth and most recent season of Man Vs. Wild was broadcast on Discovery in July and August 2011. It featured one episode in which Grylls was joined in a remote part of Iceland by actor Jake Gyllenhaal.
Other episodes have seen Grylls dropped by parachute into jungles and deserts, surviving for days by eating snakes, sleeping in snow holes and wrapping a urine-soaked t-shirt around his head to combat dehydration.
Man vs. Wild is shown in some 200 countries around the world.
Grylls climbed Mt Everest at the age of 23 and served for three years in Britain's elite Special Air Service, training in parachuting, jungle warfare and combat survival.
He also has found fame as a motivational speaker and written several books, including teenage fiction and a best-selling autobiography.
What do you think Bear Grylls should do next?

"Loved it enough to buy another"
The pathfinder LE provides interior luxury and features combined with off-road capability for thousands less than the competition. I think the interior looks better than the 4 runner. I've owned two from 2009-2015 and have had no issues with either. One was a 2005 and the current one is a 2010. I have changed the oil, replaced brakes and batter...

Originally written on Inside The Panthers | Last updated 11/19/14
Ron Rivera is wasting no time throwing the Panthers' newest additions into the special teams fire: Running back Josh Vaughan and linebacker Kion Wilson, signed off the practice squad Wednesday, both will play special teams Sunday at Detroit. The Panthers are looking for any kind of boost on a special teams unit that ranks at or near the bottom of several categories. Wilson played special teams at San Diego, where Rivera was the defensive coordinator, for six games last year before injuring his ankle. Vaughan said he played a number of special teams when he was backing up Tim Hightower at Richmond. The Panthers have allowed three punt returns for touchdowns this year, one away from tying an NFL record. The last one was a 79-yarder by the Titans' Marc Mariani, whose easily ran past punter Jason Baker, the last man with a shot to tackle him. Rivera said he would have liked to have seen Baker make more of an effort on the play. "But," Rivera added, "he's a punter." As for injury updates...

Professional and courteous. Showed up when promised and did a high quality job.
Tampa, FL
My name Is Heather R. I was recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and shortly thereafter my husband off 22 years jumped ship needless to say I had no idea as to how to begin to heal and painting my house was the last thing on my mind.but I figured a face lift to my house might be a great beginning out with the old and all that. After submitting my request to home advisor I had many responses and of ALL the contractors that came to my house for an estimate Pro Finishing was a breathe of fresh air. Not only were they polite and personable they were beyond professional they had already gathered all the colors allowed by my home owners association. They never tried to sell me on anything and they answered every question as well as some great ideas not to mention great taste. I have never done anything like this on my own I had no idea how elaborate painting could be but "Big D" and his partner walked me thru everything and spent a lot of time with me. Not once did I get the stare I often get associated with the visual effects of chemo or that omg poor thing has cancer vibe! nothing was set in stone they worked with me on getting my house painted its just that easy with them. Not only do I look forward to have them do the job I thank home advisor for the connection. I trust them as well as having met some amazing boys that I look forward to having them at my home. Look no further!!

A connection assembly for vehicle engine coolant circuits, wherein a tubular multiway distributing element presents respective tubular appendixes fitted with the end portion of a branch pipe. The pipe and tubular appendix are made integral by means of a tubular coupling molded in one piece on the end portion of the pipe, on a relatively small portion connecting with the appendix.
1. A connection assembly for a vehicle cooling system, comprising:
a distributing element with at least one tubular portion extending from said distributing element;
a branch pipe positioned or said tubular portion and means for securing said branch pipe to said tubular portion;
said securing means comprising a one-piece connecting element molded over said branch pipe and said tubular portion to form sealed one-piece unit;
said tubular portion having a radially-outwardly extending annular flange and a plurality of truncated cone-shaped projections extending radially-outwardly from said tubular portion, and
said connecting element having a cylindrical portion engaging said branch pipe over said annular flange and said cone-shaped projections to urge said branch pipe into sealing engagement with said tubular portion and said cylindrical portion having an internal recess terminating in an inwardly directed flange radially engaging said annular flange on one side and wall means radially engaging said annular flange on its other side to prevent said connecting element from sliding in relation to said tubular portion and said branch pipe.
2. The connection assembly as claimed in claim 1, characterized by the fact that said connecting element is made of plastic.
3. The connection assembly as claimed in claim 1, characterized by the fact that said branch pipe comprises a number of continuous smooth portions and undulated portions forming respectively rigid and flexible portions of said pipe.
4. The connection assembly as claimed in claim 1, characterized by the fact that said branch pipe comprises a first inner wall and a second outer wall integral with each other and made of different materials.
This is a continuation of copending application(s) Ser. No. 07/712,149 filed on Jun. 6, 1991.
The present invention relates to a connection assembly or vehicle engine coolant circuits.
Known circuits of the aforementioned type usually feature rubber hoses, the end portions of which are connected firmly to connecting assembly branches of the cooling system by means of metal clamps.
Connections of the aforementioned type present several major drawbacks: eventual aging of the hoses results in a loss of elasticity, in turn accompanied by a variation in the hose section, and in cracking so that the pressure exerted by the clamp is no longer sufficient for ensuring fluidtight sealing between the hose and the distributing element.
The presence of acid vapors, combined with the high temperature inside the engine compartment of the vehicle, results in corrosion and possible damage of the clamps, thus further impairing sealing performance.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a connection assembly to overcome the above drawbacks typically associated with known assemblies. Further aims and advantages of the present invention will be disclosed in the following description.
According to the present invention, there is provided a connection assembly for vehicle engine coolant circuits, comprising a tubular, multiway distributing element and at least one branch pipe connected to said distributing element; characterized by the fact that said branch pipe is secured to said distributing element by means of an element molded in one piece with a relatively small connecting portion between said branch pipe and said distributing element.
The present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawing showing a partially-sectioned side view of a connection assembly for vehicle engine coolant circuits, according to the teachings of the present invention.
FIG. 1 shows an overall view of the connection assembly according to the present invention, which comprises a four-way distributing element 2 conveniently made of plastic, e.g. acetal resin, connected, in FIG. 1, to three branch (two shown by a continuous and dotted line respectively, end one partially sectioned) connected at the other end to respective component parts of the coolant circuit, e.g. The engine, main radiator, passenger compartment radiator, circulating pump, etc. At the other end, said pipes 4 may also present snap-on connecting elements of the type described in Italian Patent Application "Connection assembly for vehicle engine coolant circuits" filed concurrently by the present Applicant.
Distributing element 2 comprises a central tubular body 7 from which extend four tubular appendixes 10, each having a first portion 11 consisting of a cylindrical lateral wall, at the end of which there extends outwards an annular flange 12, the function of which will be described later on.
Each appendix 10 also presents three annular, truncated-cone-shaped projections 14 spaced along the end portion 16 of appendix 10, between annular range 12 and end edge 18 of appendix 10, and increasing in section towards flange 12.
Pipes 4 present an inside diameter substantially equal to the outside diameter of appendixes 10, and are fitted on to end portions 16 so that the front end edges of pipes 4 contact flanges 12.
Pipes 4 are connected stably to appendixes 10 by means of a tubular coupling 25 made of plastic, molded in one piece on the portion of pipe 4 fitted to end portion 16, and securing pipe 4 to annular projections 14. Tubular coupling 25 presents an end portion 22 molded in one piece on a short portion of the exposed of appendix 10, beyond annular flange 12, for preventing coupling 25 from sliding in relation to appendix 10 and withdrawal of pipe 4.
Pipes 4 conveniently present a number of continuous smooth portions 28 and undulated portions 29 forming respectively rigid and flexible portions, for conveniently routing the coolant circuit between the various components inside the engine compartment.
Pipes 4 may be single-walled types, conveniently made of plastic (as shown), or comprise a first inner wall 30 and a second outer wall 31 (shown by the dotted line) integral with each other and made of different materials, e.g. polyethylene and nylon respectively.
From the foregoing description, the connection assembly according to the present invention clearly provides for overcoming the drawbacks associated with known assemblies. Coupling 25, in fact, despite covering a relatively short portion of distributing element 2, presses On a relatively long end portion of pipe 4, thus providing for excellent sealing between tubular appendixes 10 and branch pipes 4. What is more, being made of plastic, it is no longer subject to wear and corrosion typical of the metal clamps employed on known connection assemblies. Finally, connection time for assembling the coolant circuit on the vehicle is obviously reduced.
To those skilled in the art it will be clear that changes may be made to the connection assembly as described and illustrated herein without, however, departing from the scope of the present invention.
