20140132392 | OPERATING CONTROL SYSTEM FOR ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT - The operating control system can be use on electronic equipment, such as cell phones, computers, engine analyzers, etc. An input device, programming a single or multiple devices, enables the input of user access data by a primary user for multiple modes. Through use of a black list, blocked numbers can be stored or immediately deleted with notification going to the user as well as the owner of the blocked number. A temporary shut down feature enables the device to be shut down for a programmed period of time and reactivated at the end of that time. | 05-15-2014 |
20130326854 | Hand Tool for Use in the Quick Disconnection of Quick Connect/Disconnect Couplings - A tool for the removal of connectors from pipes is disclosed that, in one embodiment, enables the removal of connectors from large pipes and in another embodiment from a size range of pipes. Movable and stationary gripping and pushing elements are affixed to handles to enable a pipe to be firmly gripped between a movable gripping jaw and a stationary gripping jaw and the connector prevented from movement by the movable pusher jaw and the stationary pusher jaw. The handles can compress around a pivot point or slide on a bar. In another embodiment the movable and stationary gripping and pushing elements are removable from the body of the tool. | 12-12-2013 |
20130248713 | METHOD OF LOCAL ELECTRO-MAGNETIC FIELD ENHANCEMENT OF TERAHERTZ (THZ) RADIATION IN SUB-WAVELENGTH REGIONS AND IMPROVED COUPLING OF RADIATION TO MATERIALS THROUGH THE USE OF THE DISCONTINUITY EDGE EFFECT - A method and apparatus for enhanced THz radiation coupling to molecules, includes the steps of depositing a test material near the discontinuity edges of a slotted member, and enhancing the THz radiation by transmitting THz radiation through the slots. The molecules of the test material are illuminated by the enhanced THz radiation that has been transmitted through the slots, thereby producing an increased coupling of EM radiation in the THz spectral range to said material. The molecules can be bio-molecules, explosive materials, or species of organisms. The slotted member can be a semiconductor film, a metallic film, in particular InSb, or layers thereof. THz detectors sense near field THz radiation that has been transmitted through said slots and the test material. | 09-26-2013 |
