20110153869 | RECALIBRATION OF PRECISION CLOCKS IN A COMPUTER NETWORK - In one embodiment, a clock on a network device is initialized, and then a first timing message is received at the network device from a reference device having a first timestamp indicating when the first timing message was transmitted from the reference device. The network device may then determine and store a one-way delay from the first timestamp to a first time at which the first timing message was received at the network device. In response to restarting the clock, the network device may receive a second timing message from the reference device having a second timestamp indicating when the second timing message was transmitted from the reference device. The network device may then calibrate the clock such that a second time at which the network device received the second timing message is the second timestamp plus the stored one-way delay. | 06-23-2011 |

20110127258 | Ice cream float mixing chamber/cup combo with pump/sip straw - A need exists to improve the ice cream soda float and allow the consumer to selectively drink unmixed, carbonated soda, and also be able to mix an ice cream float to ones taste preference within the same cup holding apparatus. This invention describes a portable ice cream float cup that is joined together from two cups holding drink liquids and/or foods like ice cream. One straw can now be used to drink several different drinks by adjoining two or more cups together thus allow a consumer to have both an ice cream float and/or different drinks. The top cup holds either drink and/or ice cream and the first fluid chamber housing lower cup holds drink such as soda. The two cups snap together to form an air tight seal between the two cups. The first fluid chamber housing lower cup has a straw that allows the consumer to blow into the straw that builds up pressure into the first fluid chamber housing lower cup that houses liquid such as soda. When the first fluid chamber housing lower cup is pressurized, the fluid in the first fluid chamber housing lower cup is pushed up thru an interconnecting secondary tube, pipe pump straw allowing fluid to enter the secondary chamber upper cup that holds ice cream, making an ice cream float. The consumer can also sip and drink thru the same straw that was used to pressurize the first fluid chamber housing lower cup, and drink just the contents of the cup that houses the drink from either the first fluid chamber housing lower cup, or the top cup. The consumer can now have an ice cream float mixed to his/her preference, and also may drink unmixed, carbonated soda and have fun making the ice cream float by blowing fluid into the top cup. | 06-02-2011 |

20110203065 | Quick disconnect swivel connector for multiple tools - An adjoined shock absorbing non-breakable two-sectional swivel type attachment in which one section is made from a unitary shock absorbing flexible elastomer material absorbing shocks and allowing for a quick release clamp mechanism and the other section is adjoined by an axis that retains the handle allowing for swivel movement. The combination of the quick release unitary flexible clamp mechanism adjoined to a swivel mechanism allows for small tools, cleaning devices, such as scrub brushes, wall washers, abrasive pad holders, etc. or any other type of device requiring a non-breakable quick disconnect device to occur that can be easily engaged and disengaged allowing tools, etc. to also be used as a hand held device. When the swivel mechanism is in the locked fixed non-swiveling position, the shock absorbing axis and its supporting upper and lower plates, that are retained by a pin, flex and absorbs shocks due to its elastomers flexible properties and eliminates breakage when hitting stationary objects. Furthermore, swivel type floor cleaning devices will no longer need their own swivel type connector affixed onto the cleaning head thus making the cleaning products more cost efficient. | 08-25-2011 |

The adjoined two piece attachment can be locked via a pin with protruding lock lever that can be rotated in either the locked non-swiveling position that engages into a lock cavity housing or rotated 90 degrees and allow for the connector to freely swivel. The combination of a non-removable lockable pin allows for easy transition between the locked and swivel position thus a quick release unitary flexible clamp mechanism adjoined to a swivel mechanism allows for small tools, cleaning devices, such as scrub brushes, wall washers, abrasive pad holders, etc. or any other type of device requiring a non-breakable quick disconnect device to occur that can be easily engaged and disengaged allowing tools, etc. to also be used as a handheld device. When the swivel mechanism is in the locked fixed non-swiveling position, the shock absorbing axis and its supporting upper and lower members, that are retained by the lock pin, flexes and absorbs shocks due to its elastomers flexible properties and eliminates breakage when hitting stationary objects. Furthermore, swivel type floor cleaning devices will no longer need their own swivel type connector affixed onto the cleaning head thus making the cleaning products more cost efficient. | 04-28-2016 |

20110107551 | Push-flex attachment - A flexible attachment mechanism used in conjunction with a push broom or floor squeegee having a handle and a broom head or squeegee blade to provide a flexible attachment mechanism at the junction where the broom head or squeegee blade handle is connected to the broom head or squeegee blade support frame. The flexible attachment mechanism allows the broom head or squeegee blade to flex up and down causing the flexible attachment mechanism to be pre-loaded when pushing with the handle and upon releasing the downward movement during a normal sweeping action, the pre-loaded flexible attachment mechanism springs up, which in turn causes the broom head or squeegee blade to spring upwardly to kick the debris further away from the broom head or squeegee blade holder. Furthermore, the new innovation allows heavy equipment to run over the handle and/or cleaning head and flex thus reduce handle and/or cleaning head damage. | 05-12-2011 |
20130298342 | Flex-joint for handles - A unitary shock absorbing one piece flexible joint located between an upper and lower handle portion of a cleaning apparatus handle thus allowing flexing of the handle around the mid section when the handle is being abused. The Flex-Joint apparatus being rectangular in shape thus having flexing attributes when the handle is forced down thus flexing and not bending causing handle breakage. Secondly, the curvature of the connector on the bottom side and flat surface between the end of the connector lip and handle allows for heavy object to come on contact with the handle and not cause breakage. | 11-14-2013 |
