The frame is provided with an open space at both eyes between the mica and the end of the rim, which provides ventilation and prevents the fogging of the graduated micas. The sidepieces of the goggles are designed to curve at the ends thereof, so that the goggles can be put in place without the user having to remove his/her industrial safety helmet. In addition, said sidepieces are provided with removable pad which are press-fitted and which are joined by a cord that enables the goggles to be hung around the neck when not in use. Said cord takes the form of a resistance cord that can break should the goggles be impeded by any object that could cause an accident. | 05-13-2010 |

20140080968 | Blends of a Polylactic Acid and a Water Soluble Polymer - The present invention relates to water-dispersive biodegradable compositions which may be formed into films and fibres. The present invention also relates to polymer blends comprising polylactide and water-soluble polymers. More particularly, the present invention relates to the use of grafted copolymers (PLA-grafted water-soluble polymers) for the compatibilization of PLA and water-soluble polymers. Such reactive compatibilization of immiscible polymer blends is achieved in such a way that main blend components are covalently bonded. In addition, such reactive compatibilization can be carried out by reactive extrusion. | 03-20-2014 |

20150143724 | Modifiable Footwear Cover - Provided is footwear covering device that covers the calf and ankle region of a piece of footwear. The device has a base panel that is modifiable with trim panels, adornment straps, and adornment hangers. Trim panels may have glitter, velvet, faux fur or other material suitable for adding accent to the upper edge of a boot. The trim is removably secured to the top of the footwear covering and thus appears as edge trim for the underlying footwear when in use. Adornment straps and hangers having decorative embellishments are wrapped around the footwear covering, or allowed to hang downward form an upper edge. Thus, each user can customize the overall appearance of the footwear covering to his or her liking. The covering can be placed over old or damaged footwear to provide a fresh new appearance that protects the underlying footwear from damage. | 05-28-2015 |

20150287434 | METHOD OF CAPTURING AND STRUCTURING INFORMATION FROM A MEETING - A computer-controlled method of capturing and structuring information from a meeting. Audio data is captured from a meeting with a microphone and stored. Information timestamps are stored indicating a time corresponding to a speaker utterance in the audio data. A diagram is generated and stored in accordance with a series of diagram inputs received from a human operator via an input device, the diagram having a plurality of nodes connected by links and each diagram input either creating, editing or deleting an associated one of the nodes or links. The diagram is displayed on a display device, the displayed diagram changing in response to the diagram inputs so that it has a plurality of intermediate forms during the meeting phase and a final form at the end of the meeting phase. One or more event timestamps are stored for each node or link, each event timestamp indicating a time of receipt of a diagram input which creates, edits or deletes the node or link. | 10-08-2015 |
