| 20090107183 | Reduced alloy bushing flange - A cooling bushing flange having a reduced amount of precious metal is provided for a glass fiber production apparatus. The flange includes a first portion formed of a precious metal or a precious metal alloy extending outwardly from a bushing and a second portion formed of a non-precious metal. The non-precious metal portion of the flange may be affixed to the precious metal portion by known metal bonding methods. A cooling tube is positioned on the non-precious metal portion to create a thermal seal and prevent molten glass from leaking from the interface of the bushing block and bushing. The precious metal portion of the inventive flange is a fraction of the size of precious metal present in conventional bushing flanges. By reducing the amount of precious metal incorporated in the flange, a significant reduction in the overall cost of the bushing and in the manufacture of glass fibers can be obtained. | 04-30-2009 |
| 20110079051 | HIGH EFFICIENCY FIN ASSEMBLY FOR MAKING GLASS FIBERS - Cooling fin assemblies constructed of materials suitable for use in manufacturing glass filaments are provided. The cooling fin assemblies include a manifold having a first end, a second end and an internal passage therebetween. The internal passage is configured for a flow of cooling fluid. A plurality of baffles is positioned within the internal passage. A plurality of blades is connected to the manifold. The blades are configured to conduct heat to the manifold. The baffles are configured to create a serpentine flow path for the cooling fluid within the manifold. | 04-07-2011 |
| 20110100065 | Terminal Clamp for Horizontal Ear Bushing - A terminal clamp assembly for a fiberizing bushing includes a clamp body having a firsts end face and a lower jaw, an auxiliary heat sink body selectively displaceable with respect to the clamp body, a contact assembly carried on the auxiliary heat sink body and an actuator to displace the heat sink body toward or away from the face of the clamp body. The invention also includes a bushing assembly incorporating the terminal clamp assembly and an expansion compensating mounting bracket for the clamp assembly. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110146351 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DIRECTLY FORMING CONTINUOUS GLASS FILAMENTS - An in-line system converts raw, unrefined glass-forming material directly into continuous glass filaments. The system includes a reinforced melting assembly with electrically conductive melting and reinforcing members. The melting and reinforcing members are connected to a transverse melting member and lie in a plane parallel to the flowing material. This expands the melting and refining zone to the height of the melting and reinforcing members, thereby improving the quality of the filaments. The melting and reinforcing members also prevent sagging of the assembly during high temperature operation. The outermost melting and reinforcing members reduce or eliminate bypass flow of un-refined or un-homogenized material around the melting assembly, further improving quality. | 06-23-2011 |

| 20080223082 | Multiple alloy bushing assembly - A filament forming apparatus has a bushing that includes structural components and non-structural components. The structural components are formed of a first material having a high creep strength and the ability to withstand corrosive effects of molten mineral materials. The non-structural components are formed of at least a second material that is different from the first material. | 09-18-2008 |

| 20080314588 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING EROSION OF COMPONENTS DURING WELL TREATMENT - A technique is provided for use in treating one or more well zones by directing a treatment fluid downwardly through a delivery tube and then outwardly through one or more nozzles into a desired well zone. The treatment fluid is delivered downhole to the desired well zone and at least a portion of that fluid is directed laterally outward from the well treatment completion through the one or more nozzles. Each nozzle comprises a material that protects both the nozzle and proximate portions of the delivery tube from detrimental erosion due to the passage of treatment fluid. | 12-25-2008 |

| 20080311586 | METHOD FOR MEASURING IN VIVO HEMATOTOXICITY WITH AN EMPHASIS ON RADIATION EXPOSURE ASSESSMENT - The present invention relates a method for assessing in vivo hematotoxicity. The method utilizes differential staining of nucleated and non-nucleated blood cells, and also differential labeling of cells with functional versus dysfunctional mitochondrial membrane potential. Quantitative analyses can be conducted on stained whole blood specimens, and is based on blood cells' fluorescent emission and light scatter properties following exposure to an excitatory light source. The ratio of certain cell populations can be readily measured. Furthermore, it is also possible to express cell population values in terms of number per unit volume. This invention can be used to evaluate the hematotoxicity of drugs, chemicals, radiation, and other exogenous agents, or the effects that a suspected protective agent may have on induced hematotoxicity. Furthermore, the matrix of measurements provided by this invention is useful in estimating radiation dose, i.e., retrospectively. Kits for practicing the invention are also disclosed. | 12-18-2008 |

| 20110214331 | ICE FISHING TIP-DOWN - The present disclosure relates to tip-down devices used in fishing and particularly adapted for use in ice fishing. In various exemplary embodiments, the tip down includes a pivoting rod holder wherein the fishing rod pivots between two positions and automatically moves away from intermediate positions, the two positions differing in the tip of the fishing rod being held upward or downward. In various exemplary embodiments, the disclosed tip-down includes a line clip, which is used to temporarily hold the fishing line in place (e.g., at a point between the reel and the first eye of the fishing rod). The disclosed tip-down the fishing rod to be set up in a way that allows a fish to take the bait and attempt to swim away without resistance from the fishing line or rod while still indicating a strike and allowing the user, who may be remote from the fishing rod, time to respond. | 09-08-2011 |

| 20090242587 | PERSONAL HYDRATION SYSTEM - A personal hydration system for use by military personnel in environments containing nuclear, biological and chemical agents. This system includes a bladder, a neck, a cap having an outlet port and a hose with a connector. The bladder has no sharp or small radius internal corners and may be turned inside out through an oversized fill port to ensure complete cleaning. The cap is sealed by a primary seal, wherein a thicker portion of the bladder is trapped between the cap and the neck, and a secondary seal, wherein seals are squeezed between the neck and the bladder's interior. The cap includes an outlet port, thereby decreasing the possible exposure sites. The connector is adapted so that it may attach itself to various other equipment, such as gas masks or mouthpieces. A user wearing thick gloves will be capable of operating the entire system, including the cap and the connectors. | 10-01-2009 |
