Bennett, Jr.

Grover Andrew Bennett, Jr., Rotterdam, NY US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100301702HIGH GAIN MINIATURE POWER SUPPLY FOR PLASMA GENERATION - A high gain pulse generator includes a piezoelectric transformer (PT) that is driven by an input power stage to drive the PT at a desired PT resonant frequency such that at least one PT characteristic substantially matches at least one non-linear load characteristic such as, without limitation, a plasma load characteristic to deliver a desired pulse to the non-linear load.12-02-2010

20110135467SYSTEM AND METHOD OF DEICING AND PREVENTION OR DELAY OF FLOW SEPARATION OVER WIND TURBINE BLADES - A system for deicing a wind turbine blade includes an electrically powered active plasma actuator applied to a desired portion of a wind turbine blade. The activated plasma actuator energizes the air in the vicinity of the plasma actuator to increase the surface temperature of the wind turbine blade in the vicinity of the plasma actuator sufficiently to reduce or eliminate the collection of ice on a desired portion of the wind turbine blade.06-09-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100302757Energy Efficient Power Adapter - According to one embodiment, an AC power adapter for providing voltage to an electrically-operated device includes a power converter module electrically coupled to a power source via at least one hot lead and at least one neutral lead. The power converter module is configured to convert voltage received from the power source to voltage suitable for use by the electrically-operated device. The AC power adapter also includes a relay circuit coupled to the hot lead to control the voltage passing from the power source to the power converter module.12-02-2010

20100136954METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING ASSISTANCE RESOURCE PROGRESS INFORMATION ALONG A ROUTE - A user, either in a vehicle with a telematics device, at a home having a computer device, using a handheld wireless device, or other type of communication device, can request services such as to repair a flat tire, unlock a locked door, repair cable television service, etc. using the communication device. The user's communication device sends a request message over the communication network to a second server. The second server creates a request for service record and forwards the message to a first server that determines a resource to dispatch to the user's location. The first to server sends resource information, including location information, to the user's device, and either the device, or a device coupled to the user's communication device, displays the current location of the service resource on a map as the resource makes its way toward the user's location.06-03-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110054951SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATING THE ASSEMBLY, PROCESSING AND DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS - A system for automating the assembly, processing and delivery of documents includes a plurality of transport clients, a work queue, a scheduler, a plurality of rendering objects, a plurality of transport objects and a routing table. The transport clients are each responsible for acquisition of data necessary to generate the response. Once a work item is received from a transport client, it is added to the work queue. The scheduler manages the work queue including sending work items to an identified rendering object and thereafter to a transport client. Each of the rendering objects includes knowledge of the database as well as processes for extracting information from a database and applying rules on the extracted data. The scheduler assigns work items to be processed by the rendering objects, and once completed, the work items are returned to the scheduler for further processing by a transport object. The transport object uses the work items to create a document including how the document will appear, and also handles the routing of the document as specified in the information request created by the transport client. The transport objects work with the routing table for resource allocation, resource availability, and local or remote processing, and time of processing.03-03-2011
