20110060926 | Delay Circuit With Reset Feature - A system comprises an AC/DC adapter having a connector. The system also comprises a portable computer that receives said connector. The portable computer comprising a delay circuit coupled to a power transistor that is coupled in parallel with a resistor. The delay circuit causes the power transistor to activate following a time delay after current from the adapter begins to flow through the resistor. As a result of a user beginning to remove the connector from the portable computer, a control transistor is activated to reset the delay circuit. | 03-10-2011 |

20110055628 | Method for Determining a State Associated with a Transaction - A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer program product for determining a state associated with a transaction for use with a transactional processing system comprising a transaction coordinator and a plurality of grouped and inter-connected resource managers, the method comprising the steps of: in response to a communications failure between the transaction coordinator and a first resource manager causing a transaction to have an in doubt state, connecting to a second resource manager; in response to the connecting step, sending by the transaction coordinator to the second resource manager, a query requesting data associated with the in doubt transaction; obtaining at the first resource manager, by the second resource manager, a shared lock to data associated with the in doubt transaction; and in response to the obtaining step, collating, by the second resource manager, data associated with the in doubt transaction associated with the first resource manager. | 03-03-2011 |
20110055835 | AIDING RESOLUTION OF A TRANSACTION - A method for aiding resolution of a transaction for use with a transactional processing system comprising a transaction coordinator and a plurality of grouped and inter-connected resource managers, the method comprising the steps of: in response to a communications failure between the transaction coordinator and a first resource manager causing a transaction to have an in-doubt state, connecting, by the transaction coordinator, to a second resource manager; in response to the connecting step, sending by the transaction coordinator to the second resource manager, a resolve request comprising a resolution for the in-doubt transaction; in response to the resolve request, obtaining at the first resource manager, by the second resource manager, a lock to data associated with the in-doubt transaction; and in response to the obtaining step, determining, by the second resource manager, whether the transaction is associated with the first resource manager. | 03-03-2011 |

20150314145 | APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING CONTROLLED FLOW OF INHALATION-AIR - Disclosed is an apparatus for providing controlled flow of inhalation-air from at least an air-reservoir to a mask. The apparatus includes a control unit and a switch unit. The control unit controls the level of the inhalation-air flowing from the air-reservoir to the mask. The control unit includes a housing to receive the inhalation-air from the air-reservoir, plurality of ducts protruding from the housing to connect with the air-reservoir and with the mask and a valve configured to control the flow of inhalation-air from the plurality of ducts. The switch unit positions a valve to selectively open and close the plurality of ducts for regulating the flow of inhalation-air from the air-reservoir to the housing. | 11-05-2015 |

20140075763 | EATING OR ORAL CARE UTENSIL - An eating/oral care device has a concave or curved head and spaced-apart, broad protrusions in the interior space of the head, for children or challenged adults having difficulty with a conventional fork or spoon. The protrusions are fewer and more spaced-apart, and have a larger diameter to length to ratio, than toothbrush or other conventional bristles. The protrusions have a lower diameter to length ratio than nubs or bumps. The head may be an elongated, curved arm, having low or no sidewalls and an upwardly-extending rear end serving as a food and safety stop. Multiple longitudinal rows of protrusions may extend along the curved upper surface of the arm. The preferred utensil handle is spherical, which allows the user to grasp the device comfortably and naturally in various orientations, and to handle the utensil in a way that improves food-pick-up and aiming at the mouth. | 03-20-2014 |
