20110079235 | SYSTEM, APPARATUS, AND METHOD FOR HAIR WEAVING THREAD - A method and system to facilitate the removal of hair extensions, weaves, and other hair augmentation products, wherein a thread that is colored such that it substantially matches natural human hair is treated with a substance. The substance will be one that does not interact with hair products and will maintain its color while the wearer has the extensions. When the wearer desires removal of the extensions, the stylist applies a second substance to the area where the extensions are sewn to human hair by the thread, the second substance being an activator. The activator will then react with the first substance with which the thread is treated, causing the thread to change color from the natural human hair, making the thread more identifiable and providing ease of removal. | 04-07-2011 |
20140230838 | METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR REMOVING WEFT HAIR EXTENSIONS - Implementations of the present invention may reduce the difficulty of removing weft hair extensions from braided hair.

The apparatus includes a handle and a u-shaped end-piece that includes a blade in the curved portion of the u-shaped piece. In some implementations, the u-shaped end-piece may include a sharpened edge in the curved portion of the u-shaped piece In some implementations, one side of the u-shaped piece may be longer than the other side of the u-shaped piece. In some implementations, one side of the u-shaped piece is tapered at the end with a flat surface to facilitate lifting the thread away from the weft hair extension. In some implementations, the end of the handle can be tapered. | 08-21-2014 |

20100033242 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IM3 REDUCTION AND CANCELLATION IN AMPLIFIERS - Sets of power amplifier branches (which comprise an RF/microwave amplifier stage) are power combined within each stage and each set of power amplifier branches are biased in different classes of operation by bias circuits possessing different impedance characteristics such that the fundamental frequency components present at the output are in-phase with one another and the IMD3 components are anti-phase over a broad range of power levels. The RF input signal is provided by the output of the previous stage of the RF/microwave amplifier. The output of each stage is formed by power combining sets of these power amplifier branches, each of which are separately biased, so the fundamental components are additive resulting in the maximum possible output power and the IM3 components cancel partially or completely. IM3 reduction or cancellation can be achieved over a large range of output powers with the use of a feed forward control loop monitoring the input power and appropriately adjusting the bias currents and impedance characteristics of the bias circuits feeding the individual power amplifier branches in each stage of the RF/microwave amplifier. | 02-11-2010 |
