20110088137 | Revesible Garment with Warming Side and Cooling Side - A reversible garment with a warming side and a cooling side is comprised of a double knit fabric including a first face and a second face. The garment is reversible such that either face may be worn on the exterior of the garment. When the first side of the garment is worn against the body, the garment provides a heating effect by trapping air and body heat while wicking moisture to the outside of the fabric. When the second side of the garment is worn against the body, the garment provides a cooling garment by accelerating moisture movement across the fabric. Indicia are provided on the garment to indicate whether heating or cooling effects will be provided in the first-side-out configuration and the second-side-out configuration. | 04-21-2011 |

20090271380 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ENABLING SEARCH AND RETRIEVAL OPERATIONS TO BE PERFORMED FOR DATA ITEMS AND RECORDS USING DATA OBTAINED FROM ASSOCIATED VOICE FILES - A method and system are provided for using the contents of voice files as a basis for enabling search and other selection operations for data items that are associated with those voice files. Voice files may be received having associations with other data items, such as images or records. A corresponding text file is generated for each of the one or more voice files using programmatic means, such as a speech-to-text application. Each text file is provided an association with a data item based on the association of the voice file that served as the basis of its creation. Each text file is then made available for the performance of search and selection operations that result in the identification of associated data items. | 10-29-2009 |

20100312770 | System and method for computer-assisted manual and automatic logging of time-based media - A customizable logging and content management system for indexing multimedia, including a synchronized timer object that provides a time reference upon request in connection with the media, and a logger object that logs predefined events that occur in the media by associating the events with respective time references from the timer object. A video server is provided that captures and digitally stores events logged by the logging application as media segments, and a search and retrieval engine is provided that enables the media segments to be located, retrieved and viewed based on the indexes. The system includes a graphical user interface generator that enables customized user interfaces and logging databases to be created from database tables for use in the logging application. | 12-09-2010 |

20090007721 | Steering Wheel with Modular Rim Assembly - A steering wheel includes a rim assembly having a pair of preformed half-shells secured to the steering wheel skeleton. Each half-shell includes an annular rigid substrate having an outer surface bordered by an inner and an outer peripheral edge, and a cover that overlies both the substrate's outer surface and its peripheral edges. When the two half-shells are mounted to the skeleton, the covered peripheral edges abut one another to provide finished inner and outer peripheral seams on the rim. Nonfunctional stitching in the covers, advantageously provided prior to covering the substrates, cooperate to simulate a functionally-stitched seam on the finished rim assembly. A decorative trim element, such as a trim ring, is mechanically captured between the opposed peripheral edges of the two half-shells. An internal passage defined within the rim assembly is advantageously used in conjunction with a Peltier device to heat and cool the rim assembly. | 01-08-2009 |
20130152721 | STEERING WHEEL DAMPER AND ALTERNATE POWER STORAGE DEVICE - A damper for a steering wheel is provided. The damper may include a housing attached to the steering wheel and an energy-storage medium supported by the housing. | 06-20-2013 |

20080282959 | HORN ACTUATOR SWITCH - A horn actuator for a vehicle horn mounts to a steering wheel hub. The horn actuator has a number of support posts that each pass through a switch cup and mount into the steering wheel hub. A switch lies within the switch cup and a spring biases the switch cup away from the steering wheel hub. An air bag plate presses against the switch cup and biases the spring to cause the switch to make contact when a force is applied to the air bag. When activated, the switch relays electricity to a vehicle horn. The support posts are connected to each other by a connector portion that provides rigidity to the structure and provides a surface for wiring of the electrical switches. Additional support posts, cups and switches are connected by additional connector portions. | 11-20-2008 |
