| 20090313368 | CROSS-ENTERPRISE WALLPLUG FOR CONNECTING INTERNAL HOSPITAL/CLINIC IMAGING SYSTEMS TO EXTERNAL STORAGE AND RETRIEVAL SYSTEMS - A WallPlug (interface) connects DICOM devices located at a hospital to external storage and retrieval systems. The external storage and retrieval systems can be part of the National Digital Mammography Archive. The WallPlug allows secure communications within the hospital setting, and allows only selected data to be transferred between the hospital devices and the archive. The WallPlug enables cross-enterprise distribution of medical content with proper authentication and logging of transfers. The WallPlug includes two portals connected together by a private secure network. The use of two separate devices greatly enhances the security, redundancy, and manageability of the combined device. | 12-17-2009 |

| 20100265629 | Relay Coil Drive Circuit - Relay contacts operate with a snap action when disclosed electronic waveforms, profile its coil current. Snap action reduces the prolonged low pressure that damages relay contacts. This means of driving the relay coil also reverses the properties of its voltage and current. Coil voltage now varies with movement of its armature, frame current, coil resistance, back-EMF, and temperature. Coil current follows a profile that is stable and independent of these changing electrical, mechanical, and environmental factors. Since coil voltage has no direct magnetic or mechanical effect its changes do not affect relay operation. However the relays new stable current profile has a dramatic affect. It moves, makes, breaks and seats predictably, regardless of its temperature, residual magnetism, or mechanical wear. Power-line synchronization means takes advantage of this new stability, concentrating on the position and pressure of the contact. The contact starts to move closed after the peak power-line voltage and makes at zero voltage. Full contact pressure is maintained until load-current is near zero and contact break occurs before zero current. Several types of coil current profiles are disclosed along with analog and software controlled embodiments. New relay friendly electronic reset logic is disclosed to maintain contact pressure during power losses caused by load-surge and load-shorts. Zero crossing and power-line voltage are combined with logic that does not disable but delays relay operation. Relay contact to coil noise problems are disclosed along with suppression techniques to stop electronic circuitry induced contact chatter. Diagnostic techniques and production methods are disclosed for relays that are sealed inside an enclosure. Automatic and manual timing adjustment means are also disclosed. | 10-21-2010 |

| 20090019060 | CREATING ONLINE SOCIAL LEARNING COMMUNITIES - Distributing knowledge through a learning community includes creating a plurality of learning communities; for each of the plurality of learning communities, allowing creating a knowledge base by the content producers, allowing submitting content to the learning community by the content consumers or the content producers; sharing contents with the content consumers and content producers in many ways. The learning communities are listed in a directory. A category in the directory is able to be drilled into for multiple levels. Each of the multiple levels of the categories in the directory is associated with one or more of the plurality of learning communities. | 01-15-2009 |
