20100270982 | Smart Electronic Switch for Low-Power Loads - A two-wire smart load control device, such as an electronic switch, for controlling the power delivered from a power source to an electrical load comprises a relay for conducting a load current through the load and an in-line power supply coupled in series with the relay for generating a supply voltage across a capacitor when the relay is conductive. The power supply controls when the capacitor charges asynchronously with respect to the frequency of the source. The capacitor conducts the load current for at least a portion of a line cycle of the source when the relay is conductive. The load control device also comprises a bidirectional semiconductor switch, which is controlled to minimize the inrush current conducted through the relay. The bidirectional semiconductor switch is rendered conductive in response to an over-current condition in the capacitor of the power supply, and the relay is rendered non-conductive in response to an over-temperature condition in the power supply. | 10-28-2010 |
20110187286 | Switching Circuit Having Delay For Inrush Current Protection - A two-wire switching circuit can handle a large inrush current, but does not require a neutral connection or a heavy-duty mechanical switch or relay. The switching circuit comprises a mechanical air-gap switch, a first controllably conductive device (e.g., a bidirectional semiconductor switch), and a second controllably conductive device (e.g., a latching relay), which are all adapted to be coupled between an AC power source and an electrical load when the air-gap switch is in a first position. First and second delay circuits control the semiconductor switch and the latching relay to be conductive at different times after the air-gap switch is changed to the first position. Specifically, the semiconductor switch is rendered conductive before the latching relay is rendered conductive, such that the semiconductor switch conducts the large inrush current. The latching relay conducts current from the AC power source to the electrical load after the inrush current has subsided. | 08-04-2011 |

20100234567 | METHODS FOR SEPARATING RECOMBINANT PROTEINS IN AQUEOUS TWO-PHASE SYSTEMS - The object of the present invention is a procedure for the distribution, separation and purification in aqueous solution of recombinant proteins, based on the utilization of polypeptides with choline affinity. The invention is based on a phenomenon consisting of that two aqueous solutions with determinated components can be mixed, being distributed finally in two phases with different density. The fusionated proteins to said polypeptides with choline affinity are preferably located in one of the phases, while most of the cell extract proteins tend to go to the opposite phase. After a series of washings for removing the rest of the not desired material, this location can be inverted through the addition of a soluble molecule with affinity by the polypeptide fusionated to the protein of interest. This procedure allows modulating at convenience the presence of the protein or polypeptide of interest in one phase or another, possibiliting its purification with a high yield and purity grade. The invention represents an economic and scalable way of recombinant protein separation labelled preferably with choline-binding domains. | 09-16-2010 |
