20120103249 | SIC SINGLE CRYSTAL SUBLIMATION GROWTH METHOD AND APPARATUS - A physical vapor transport growth system includes a growth chamber charged with SiC source material and a SiC seed crystal in spaced relation and an envelope that is at least partially gas-permeable disposed in the growth chamber. The envelope separates the growth chamber into a source compartment that includes the SiC source material and a crystallization compartment that includes the SiC seed crystal. The envelope is formed of a material that is reactive to vapor generated during sublimation growth of a SiC single crystal on the SiC seed crystal in the crystallization compartment to produce C-bearing vapor that acts as an additional source of C during the growth of the SiC single crystal on the SiC seed crystal. | 05-03-2012 |
20120285370 | SUBLIMATION GROWTH OF SIC SINGLE CRYSTALS - In SiC sublimation crystal growth, a crucible is charged with SiC source material and SiC seed crystal in spaced relation and a baffle is disposed in the growth crucible around the seed crystal. A first side of the baffle in the growth crucible defines a growth zone where a SiC single crystal grows on the SiC seed crystal. A second side of the baffle in the growth crucible defines a vapor-capture trap around the SiC seed crystal. The growth crucible is heated to a SiC growth temperature whereupon the SiC source material sublimates and forms a vapor which is transported to the growth zone where the SiC crystal grows by precipitation of the vapor on the SiC seed crystal. A fraction of this vapor enters the vapor-capture trap where it is removed from the growth zone during growth of the SiC crystal. | 11-15-2012 |

20130016907 | SCRIBBLE SEGMENTATION METHOD AND APPARATUSAANM Jarliden; Andreas E.AACI StockholmAACO SEAAGP Jarliden; Andreas E. Stockholm SEAANM Hennix; Marcus L.AACI StockholmAACO SEAAGP Hennix; Marcus L. Stockholm SE - An apparatus and method of segmenting an image using scribble segmentation is provided. An image is segmented by constraining the membership value of a subset of image elements, solving a weighted biharmonic equation subject to the constrained membership values wherein the weights are determined from similarities between image elements, and determining the final segmentation based on the membership value of each image element. An image may also be segmented by constraining a membership value of a subset of image elements, determining the unknown membership values given the constraints by solving a linear equation system using a multigrid technique, and updating a coarser level of the multigrid hierarchy to account for additional constraints using patch matrices. | 01-17-2013 |

20140187394 | EXERCISE DEVICE - An exercise device may include a main body defining an arch-shaped structure, at least one movable support mechanism coupled to the main body and configured to support the exercise device on a support surface, and at least one gripping mechanism coupled to the main body. The main body may be formed from a shape retaining material. The exercise device may further include a biasing mechanism coupled to the main body. The at least one movable support mechanism may include wheels coupled to the main body. The at least one gripping mechanism may include a handle or a recess or an elongated slot formed in the main body. The main body may further include apertures for joining the handle to the main body at various positions. | 07-03-2014 |
20140274575 | EXERCISE MACHINE - Described herein are embodiments of stationary exercise machines having reciprocating foot and/or hand members, such as foot pedals that move in a closed loop path. Some embodiments can include reciprocating foot pedals that cause a user's feet to move along a closed loop path that is substantially inclined, such that the foot motion simulates a climbing motion more than a flat walking or running motion. Some embodiments can further include reciprocating handles that are configured to move in coordination with the foot via a linkage to a crank wheel also coupled to the foot pedals. Variable resistance can be provided via a rotating air-resistance based mechanism, via a magnetism based mechanism, and/or via other mechanisms, one or more of which can be rapidly adjustable while the user is using the machine. | 09-18-2014 |

20090088307 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A SPOOL OF TUBULAR FABRIC FOR USE IN MANUFACTURING PAINT ROLLER COVERS - A system and method for producing a spool having a length of tubular fabric wound thereupon is disclosed, the tubular fabric being substantially spirally wound upon a core with consecutive windings of the extended length tubular fabric being located close adjacent each other, and with consecutive rows of the extended length tubular fabric overlaying each other on the hollow core. The winding operation simultaneously controls both the lateral position at which the tubular fabric is wound onto the core and the rotation of the core to achieve the tight and highly compact winding operation, with the speed of the winding operation being controlled according to the amount of the tubular fabric which is available at any given time. The tubular fabric is suitable for use in the manufacture of paint roller covers. | 04-02-2009 |

20100287617 | METHOD FOR COMMUNICATION SECURITY AND APPARATUS THEREFOR - A FireNet security system in which trustworthy networks, called BlackNets, each comprising One (1) or more client computers, are protected by FireBreaks against attacks from untrustworthy networks, called RedNets. All incoming transactions from the RedNet are examined by the FireBreak to determine if they violate any of a plurality of protection rules stored in a local protection rules database. Any transaction found to be in violation is discarded. Valid transactions are forwarded to the BlackNet. If an otherwise valid transaction is found to be suspicious, the FireBreak will forward to a FireNet Server relevant information relating to that transaction. If the FireNet Server verifies that the transaction is indeed part of an attack, the FireNet Server will create new protection rules suitable to defend against the newly identified source or strategy of attack. Periodically, all FireBreaks in the FireNet system will transfer, directly or indirectly, all new rules. | 11-11-2010 |
