| 20080214333 | BASKETBALL SYSTEM - A basketball system may include a basketball goal and a support structure that is sized and configured to support the basketball goal above a playing surface. The basketball system may also include an adjustment assembly that is sized and configured to allow the height of the basketball goal to be adjusted. The adjustment assembly may include an arm that is connected to the structure connecting the basketball goal and the support structure. The arm may include a plurality of receiving portions, such as openings or slots, and an engaging member may be connected to the support structure. When the engaging portion is connected to a first receiving portion, the basketball goal may be disposed at a first height. Preferably, when the engaging portion is connected to a second receiving portion, the basketball goal may be disposed at a second height. The adjustment assembly may also include a locking mechanism that is sized and configured to lock the arm and basketball goal in a desired position. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20100205871 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONSTRUCTING A MODULAR ENCLOSURE - A modular enclosure may include a number of components, such as floor panels, wall panels and roof panels, which may be interconnected to form a structure such as a shed. For example, the shed may include wall panels with connecting portions that are sized and configured to allow adjacent wall panels to be interconnected. The wall panels may also include outwardly extending projections that allow the wall panels to be connected to the floor panels. In addition, the wall panels may include receiving portions that may receive portions of the roof panels, such as an outwardly extending lip. Advantageously, a truss may extend through the receiving portions in the wall panels and the truss may include a channel that is sized and configured to allow any water that enters the shed through a roof panel seam to be removed from the shed. | 08-19-2010 |
| 20110011010 | MODULAR ENCLOSURE - A modular enclosure may include a number of interlocking components, such as panels, that may be interconnected to form sidewalls, roof and/or floor. The panels may be constructed from blow-molded plastic and a first pattern may be disposed on one surface and a second pattern may be disposed on an opposing surface. One or more points of intersection may be located where the first pattern and the second pattern overlie, and a depression may be disposed at the points of intersection. The depressions are preferably sized and configured to increase the strength and/or rigidity of the panel. | 01-20-2011 |

| 20090008323 | Water Filter Materials And Water Filters Containing A Mixture Of Microporous And Mesoporous Carbon Particles - A filter and filter material for providing or treating potable water is provided. The filter includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet, a filter material disposed within the housing, the filter material formed at least in part from a mixture of a plurality of mesoporous and microporous activated carbon particles. Preferably, at least some of the mesoporous activated carbon filter particles are coated with a cationic polymer, and even more preferably, at least some of the particles are coated with a cationic polymer and silver or a silver containing material. Kits comprising filters and information relating to the reduction, killing or removal of bacteria, viruses, microbials, and TTHM are also provided. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20090200238 | TWIN TANK WATER-ON-WATER FILTRATION SYSTEM - A water-on-water filtration system that includes a filter member and two storage vessels. The system includes a plurality of valves that are controlled to place a first of the storage vessels in a fill state in which the first storage vessel is being filled with filtered water, and concurrently place the second of the storage vessels in a service state in which filtered water held in the second storage vessel is delivered as an output of the filtration system. The filtration system can be configured to supply a constant output of filtered water to meet a constant demand while using a relatively small filter member and relatively small storage vessels. | 08-13-2009 |
| 20090308800 | WATER FILTER MATERIALS AND WATER FILTERS CONTAINING A MIXTURE OF MICROPOROUS AND MESOPOROUS CARBON PARTICLES - A filter and filter material for providing or treating potable water is provided. The filter includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet, a filter material disposed within the housing, the filter material formed at least in part from a mixture of a plurality of mesoporous and microporous activated carbon particles. Preferably, at least some of the mesoporous activated carbon filter particles are coated with a cationic polymer, and even more preferably, at least some of the particles are coated with a cationic polymer and silver or a silver containing material. Kits comprising filters and information relating to the reduction, killing or removal of bacteria, viruses, microbials, and TTHM are also provided. | 12-17-2009 |
| 20100096302 | SYSTEM FOR MONITORING THE PERFORMANCE OF FLUID TREATMENT CARTRIDGES - A fluid treatment system is provided, the system including a fluid treatment cartridge for treating fluid passing therethrough. The cartridge has an inlet through which untreated fluid enters the cartridge and an outlet from which treated fluid exits the cartridge. The cartridge also has a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag for storing data. The fluid treatment system also includes a connection manifold configured to detachably support the fluid treatment cartridge. The connection manifold has an inlet flow path for directing untreated fluid to the inlet of the cartridge and an outlet flow path for directing treated fluid from the outlet of the cartridge, and a data sensor for reading data stored on the RFID tag. The fluid treatment system further includes means for evaluating the data stored on the RFID tag and read by the data sensor, as well as means for deterring fluid treatment system use based upon the evaluation of the data stored on the RFID tag and read by the data sensor. | 04-22-2010 |
| 20100264078 | LATCH RESET FILTER UNIT - A filter unit that includes a slide assembly and a head assembly. The slide assembly is moveably mounted to the head assembly. The head assembly is configured to receive an end portion of a filter cartridge in releasable engagement. The slide assembly is movable between a first position in which the slide assembly prevents disengagement of the filter cartridge from the head assembly, and a second position in which the filter cartridge is permitted to disengage from the head assembly. In the second position, the slide assembly maintains engagement with the head assembly until an external force is applied by engagement of the filter cartridge with the slide assembly when removing the filter cartridge from the head assembly. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20110155661 | WATER FILTER MATERIALS AND WATER FILTERS CONTAINING A MIXTURE OF MICROPOROUS AND MESOPOROUS CARBON PARTICLES - A filter and filter material for providing or treating potable water is provided. The filter includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet, a filter material disposed within the housing, the filter material formed at least in part from a mixture of a plurality of mesoporous and microporous activated carbon particles. Preferably, at least some of the mesoporous activated carbon filter particles are coated with a cationic polymer, and even more preferably, at least some of the particles are coated with a cationic polymer and silver or a silver containing material.
