20100224511 | Bifurcated beverage can with unified opening and mixing operation - A beverage can having a primary fluid volume and a segregated secondary container. The secondary container could contain a liquid or a granulated solid. The two containers are separated by a barrier which can be opened. The beverage can has a lid with a conventional pull-tab and downward-opening hatch. However, the hatch is equipped with a piercer extending down into the can. When the pull-tab is actuated, the piercer breaches the barrier separating the secondary container from the primary fluid volume. The contents of the secondary container can then be mixed with the primary fluid. | 09-09-2010 |
20100224512 | Bifurcated beverage can with unified opening and mixing operation - A beverage can having a primary fluid volume and a segregated secondary tipping container. The secondary tipping container is sealed prior to opening the beverage can so that its contents do not mix with the contents of the primary container. The beverage can has a lid with a conventional pull-tab and downward-opening hatch. The secondary tipping container is preferably attached to the underside of the lid. The tipping container has an open mouth which is preferably sealed against the underside. When the pull-tab is actuated, the hatch descends and detaches a portion of the tipping container from the lid so that the tipping container then pivots downward and spills its contents into the primary container. | 09-09-2010 |

20110087313 | Thermal Compression Shirt - A thermal garment is tight fitting, often known as a compression shirt, and has a raw or composition rubber sleeve portion, which can be applied to either or both shoulder parts of the garment and/or to either or both elbow parts of the garment, with said rubber portion being covered in fabric and being attached to the garment and replacing that original portion of said garment. The garment with a composition sleeve portion is designed to avoid injury due to extreme playing conditions or improper muscle tension incurred by athletes, by insuring heat and compression to the shoulder joint or to the elbows. The garment also uses heat from the thermal portion of the garment to help in healing the area covered by way of thermotherapy (the use of heat on muscles, joints, tendons, and ligaments which increases blood flow to expedite the healing process). | 04-14-2011 |

20090096260 | Kozy baby - An efficient way to cool or warm the body of children while using a car seat, stroller, or baby swing when the surrounding temperature is not comfortable. It is body pillow that is shaped to fit into the car seat, stroller, or baby swing that has three rectangular pockets located on the back of it. These pockets are where cooling/warming material, also known as the non-toxic gel pack, is inserted. The body of the child will lye against this pillow with the cooling/warming material, also known as the non-toxic gel pack, inserted into the pockets, while properly seated in the car seat, stroller or baby swing. With the use of this invention, the child's body will be quickly cooled or warmed. Neck support is also provided with the use of an additional pillow if needed for smaller children. | 04-16-2009 |

20100301219 | Metal-Organic Scintillator Crystals for X-Ray, Gamma Ray, and Neutron Detection - New metal-organic materials are useful as scintillators and have the chemical formula LX | 12-02-2010 |
20120318993 | HIGH SPATIAL RESOLUTION PARTICLE DETECTORS - Disclosed below are representative embodiments of methods, apparatus, and systems for detecting particles, such as radiation or charged particles. One exemplary embodiment disclosed herein is particle detector comprising an optical fiber with a first end and second end opposite the first end. The optical fiber of this embodiment further comprises a doped region at the first end and a non-doped region adjacent to the doped region. The doped region of the optical fiber is configured to scintillate upon interaction with a target particle, thereby generating one or more photons that propagate through the optical fiber and to the second end. Embodiments of the disclosed technology can be used in a variety of applications, including associated particle imaging and cold neutron scattering. | 12-20-2012 |
20130042948 | Decorative Steel Composition Having a Textured Cyrstalline Surface - A decorative steel article having a textured crystalline surface includes a steel alloy, single crystal or large, macroscopic grained crystal body. The steel alloy includes iron and at least one element selected from the group of nickel and chromium. The steel article has a surface characterized by a decorative, macroscopic, martensitic phase surface feature. The decorative steel article is suitable for sundry applications where an enhanced visual appearance is desirable. | 02-21-2013 |
