| 20120016542 | SIGNALING AND REMOTE CONTROL TRAIN OPERATION - A model train and layout control system based on on-board sound and locomotive modules, new signaling methods, bi-directional communication, environmental sound, turnout control, train location methods, computer interaction and accessory control, by adding components to existing technology. AC power signal waveforms are variously altered to convey digital command words. | 01-19-2012 |
| 20110235820 | SOUND SYSTEMS FOR MODEL RAILROAD LOCOMOTIVES - On-board model railroad speaker enclosure designs are presented that allow maximum sized speakers, improve impedance matching of sound to the outside of the locomotive, and isolate back and front speaker waves while maintaining the standard horizontal drive-train in model train locomotives. | 09-29-2011 |
| 20100330875 | SIGNALING AND REMOTE CONTROL TRAIN OPERATION - A model train and layout control system based on on-board sound and locomotive modules, new signaling methods, bi-directional communication, environmental sound, turnout control, train location methods, computer interaction and accessory control, by adding components to existing technology. AC power signal waveforms are variously altered to convey digital command words. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20090029626 | PROXIMITY CONTROL OF ON-BOARD PROCESSOR-BASED MODEL TRAIN SOUND AND CONTROL SYSTEM - A model railroad remote object comprises a proximity detector, an on-board accessory, and an on-board processor. The proximity detector changes state based on proximity of the detector to a proximity source. The accessory, which is located on or within the remote object, exhibits a behavior based on a parameter. The processor, which is operatively connected to the proximity detector and the accessory, affects the value of the parameter of the accessory based on the state of the proximity detector. By way of illustration and not limitation, the on-board accessory may be an audio device, the behavior may be emission of sound, and the parameter may be sound volume. | 01-29-2009 |
