Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110115897Whole Slide Fluorescence Scanner - A whole slide fluorescence digital pathology system is provided that uses a monochrome TDI line scan camera, which is particularly useful in fluorescence scanning where the signal is typically much weaker than in brightfield microscopy. The system uses oblique brightfield illumination for fast and accurate tissue finding and employs a unique double sweep focus scoring and objective lens height averaging technique to identify focus points and create a focus map that can be followed during subsequent scanning to provide autofocusing capability. The system also scans and analyzes image data to determine the optimal line rate for the TDI line scan camera to use during subsequent scanning of the digital slide image and it also creates a light profile to compensate for loss of illumination light due to roll off.05-19-2011

20090140521GENERATOR POWER-BASED COLD START STRATEGY - The method of the invention controls engine speed during engine starting for a hybrid electric vehicle that includes a battery, an engine and a generator, acting as a motor, whereby generator torque assists the engine to develop a stable running speed throughout an engine start event, particularly a cold engine start event, without violating battery power limits.06-04-2009
20110165829AUTOMOTIVE VEHICLE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING CLIMATE SYSTEM OF SAME - An automotive vehicle may include a container, a battery disposed within the container and configured to provide motive power for the vehicle, and a battery climate system configured to move air from the cabin to the container. The vehicle may also include at least one controller configured to, while the vehicle is in a non-propulsion mode, receive a request to activate the battery climate system and, in response to the request, activate the battery climate system.07-07-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100180462HOLDING ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF USE - A holding assembly for reducing the bacteria on a washcloth. The bacteria reducing cleaning device holding assembly comprising: a housing; at least one fan connected to the housing; the fan electrically connected to a power source; a holding device connected to the housing for holding a cleaning device; and a control device connected to the fan such that when the control device is activated the fan moves air over the holding device thereby drying the cleaning device held by the holding device. This provides the advantage of providing a device to hold a user's washcloth after use that helps to dry the washcloth thus reducing the bacteria count on the washcloth.07-22-2010
20110114648DRINKING MUG HAVING A THERMAL HEAT SINK FOR MAINTAINING A BEVERAGE TEMPERATURE - A drinking mug comprising a bottom having a top surface and a bottom surface, a sidewall connected to the bottom having an exterior surface and an interior surface, having a top end and a bottom end. A beverage area defined by the bottom and sidewall for containing a beverage. A heat sink connected to the bottom having a heat sink top surface and a heat sink bottom surface. The heat sink being made of a material that is denser than the material the bottom and sidewalls are made of.05-19-2011
