20100322769 | FLUID TURBINE OPTIMIZED FOR POWER GENERATION - A fluid turbine comprising a rotor, having an axis of rotation, comprising at least two rotor blades disposed at a radius from the axis of rotation, each rotor blade having a pitch axis and a variable pitch angle. The fluid turbine comprises a mechanism operable to control the pitch angle of at least one rotor blade about its pitch axis and to vary the pitch angle of the rotor blade between various pitch angles as the blade moves radially about the axis of rotation of the rotor. | 12-23-2010 |
20110110779 | FLUID TURBINE FEATURING ARTICULATED BLADES AND PHASE-ADJUSTED CAM - A fluid turbine comprising a rotor, having an axis of rotation, comprising at least two rotor blades disposed at a radius from the axis of rotation, each rotor blade having a pitch axis and a variable pitch angle. The fluid turbine comprises a mechanism operable to control the pitch angle of at least one rotor blade about its pitch axis and to vary the pitch angle of the rotor blade between various pitch angles as the blade moves radially about the axis of rotation of the rotor. | 05-12-2011 |

20130039845 | Method For Producing Hydrogen - A method for production of hydrogen. In the method, an aqueous solution of a chalcogenoxanthylium compound, a catalyst and sacrificial electron donor are exposed to electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength of from 400 nm to 850 nm. Exposure of the aqueous solution to the electromagnetic radiation results in production of hydrogen. Such a method can be used, for example, in dye-sensitized solar cell. | 02-14-2013 |

20140333625 | Apparatus and Methods for Haptic Rendering Using a Haptic Camera View - The invention provides systems and methods for using a “haptic camera” within a virtual environment and for using graphical data from the haptic camera to produce touch feedback. The haptic camera obtains graphical data pertaining to virtual objects within the vicinity and along the trajectory of a user-controlled haptic interface device. The graphical data from the camera is interpreted haptically, thereby allowing touch feedback corresponding to the virtual environment to be provided to the user. | 11-13-2014 |

20140266775 | MULTIFUNCTION CABLE FOR USE WITH DIFFERENT SIGNAL INPUTS - A cable comprises a circuit, a switching element and an input connection for engaging an output connection of a sensor, the switching element configured to selectively enable the circuit of the cable assembly to process an accepted output of at least one of at least two sensors providing differing acceptable outputs and to provide a signal output corresponding to the accepted sensor output for processing by a monitor. A sensor includes an initiation element structured to cause a switching element associated with an input connection of the cable to change a mode of operation of the switching element to selectively enable the circuit to process an output of the sensor accepted by the cable and to provide a signal output corresponding to the accepted sensor output. A system comprises a monitor and the cable including the circuit and the switching element. Methods of operation are also disclosed. | 09-18-2014 |

20160069184 | METHOD OF BLADE TIP REPAIR - A method for repairing a blade for use in a gas turbine engine, the method comprising removing a distal tip of an airfoil included in the blade to remove damaged portions of the airfoil and to expose previously internal cooling passages. The method further comprising positioning a tip cap in the place of the removed distal tip to cover the internal cooling passages, and welding the tip cap to the airfoil by applying a directed energy beam onto the tip cap and the airfoil at a joint between the tip cap and the airfoil. | 03-10-2016 |
