Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090029585Rotatably Locking Plug and Connector - An apparatus for coupling an electrical connector to a cable is provided. The apparatus includes an electrical connector having at least one tab extending radially out from the electrical connector and a housing rotatably coupled to the electrical connector. The housing includes at least one first channel disposed along an interior of the housing, wherein the at least one tab is configured to slidably engage the first channel. The housing also includes a spacer applying a first force in a first direction to the electrical connector. The housing also includes at least one tab retention member disposed along the interior of the housing, wherein the tab retention member is annularly disposed from the first channel and prevents the electrical connector from traveling beyond a predetermined distance in the first direction.01-29-2009

20100199743GUIDED KEEPER ASSEMBLY AND METHOD FOR METAL FORMING DIES - A guided keeper assembly and method for metal forming dies includes a base having a flat mounting face and at least one marginal fastener aperture to detachably mount the base to an associated die shoe, as well as a central guide aperture. The assembly also includes a guide pin having a central portion closely received in the central guide aperture of the base for precisely guiding reciprocal motion between the die pad and an associated die shoe. The guide pin has an enlarged head at a first end thereof which abuts the mounting face of the base to positively limit travel between the die shoe and the die pad, and a shoulder at the opposite or second end thereof with an alignment mechanism that precisely locates the second end of the guide pin on the die pad. A first fastener extends through the marginal fastener aperture in the base to securely, yet detachably, connect the same with the die shoe. A second fastener securely, yet detachably, connects the second end of the guide pin with the die pad.08-12-2010

20080272011Drug delivery box for individual doses of medicine - A four-ply paper board hanging hole in a display box for hanging a display box from a support rod. This is accomplished by the use of a paper board die blank having a hanging hole in four layers of the box such that, when the box is assembled, the four hanging holes are aligned to provide a strongly reinforced hanging hole which proves quite difficult to rip. Therefore, an increased aesthetic appearance of the display box is achieved, resulting in increased sales and minimal wasting of display box products.11-06-2008

20100075327INTERMITTENT DETECTION DURING ANALYTICAL REACTIONS - Methods, devices, and systems for performing intermittent detection during analytical reactions are provided. Such methods facilitate collection of reaction data from disparate reaction times. Further, such methods are useful for reducing photo-induced damage of one or more reactants in an illuminated analytical reaction at a given reaction time. In preferred embodiments, the reaction mixture is subjected to at least one illuminated and non-illuminated period and allowed to proceed such that the time in which the reaction mixture is illuminated is less than a photo-induced damage threshold period.03-25-2010
20100323912REAL-TIME ANALYTICAL METHODS AND SYSTEMS - The present invention is generally directed to compositions, methods, and systems for performing single-molecule, real-time analysis of a variety of different biological reactions, and for determining various characteristics of the different biological reactions. The ability to analyze such reactions provides an opportunity to study those reactions as well as to potentially identify factors and/or approaches for impacting such reactions, e.g., to stimulate, enhance, or inhibit such reactions.12-23-2010
20110160077SEQUENCING METHODS USING ENZYME CONFORMATION - Systems and methods are provided for single-molecule sequencing of template nucleic acids in which the signal from a label attached to a polymerase enzyme is used to monitor conformational changes in the polymerase which occur while labeled nucleotides or nucleotide analogs are added to a growing nucleic acid chain which is complementary to the template nucleic acid. The signal indicative of the conformational state of the enzyme is used to determine with higher confidence when true nucleotide or nucleotide analog incorporation events occur, allowing for the improved quality of base calls and sequence determination.06-30-2011

20100239087ENCRYPTING VARIABLE-LENGTH PASSWORDS TO YIELD FIXED-LENGTH ENCRYPTED PASSWORDS - According to one embodiment, encrypting passwords includes performing the following for each input password of a plurality of input passwords to yield encrypted passwords, where at least two input passwords have different lengths and the encrypted passwords have the same length. An input password and a random number are received at logic configured to perform a key derivation operation comprising a pseudorandom function. An encryption key is derived from the input password and the random number according to the key derivation operation. The encryption key and a user identifier are received at logic configured to perform a cipher-based message authentication code (CMAC) function. An encrypted password is generated from the encryption key and the user identifier according to the CMAC function.09-23-2010
