Patent application number	Description	Published
20110131540	Path Preserving Design Partitioning With Redundancy - Partitioning of a design allows STA to be performed in parallel on multiple, less demanding, and more available hardware resources. Therefore, runtime of STA can be significantly shortened. Notably, the partitioning can include redundancy. That is, partitions are allowed to share objects in order to preserve the timing path completeness and design structural integrity. Due to this redundancy, these partitions can account for many constraints specifically imposed by STA. Once these partitions are populated, analysis can be performed on those partitions in parallel to generate the same timing results as if the design had been analyzed flat as a single unit. Therefore, the performance of STA can be optimized without compromising the accuracy and quality of results.	06-02-2011

20090159101	FLUID SUPPLY SYSTEM FOR APPLIANCE - A dishwasher includes a tub formed by a plurality of walls defining an interior and an exterior, a first conduit coupled to the tub, a valve coupled to the first conduit, a rack moveable between an engaged horizontal position and a disengaged horizontal position and moveable between an upper vertical position and a lower vertical position, and a second conduit coupled to the rack. A first portion of the second conduit is configured to engage the valve when the rack is in the upper vertical position and a second portion of the second conduit is configured to engage the valve when the rack is in the lower vertical position, and the valve permits fluid to flow from the first conduit to the second conduit when the rack is in the engaged horizontal position, and wherein the valve does not permit fluid to flow from the first conduit to the interior when the rack is in the disengaged horizontal position.	06-25-2009

20100236724	Compact Wastewater Concentrator Using Waste Heat - A compact and portable liquid concentrator includes a gas inlet, a gas exit and a flow corridor connecting the gas inlet and the gas exit, wherein the flow corridor includes a narrowed portion that accelerates the gas through the flow corridor. A liquid inlet injects liquid into the gas stream at a point prior to the narrowed portion so that the gas-liquid mixture is thoroughly mixed within the flow corridor, causing a portion of the liquid to be evaporated. A demister or fluid scrubber downstream of the narrowed portion removes entrained liquid droplets from the gas stream and re-circulates the removed liquid to the liquid inlet through a re-circulating circuit. Fresh liquid to be concentrated is also introduced into the re-circulating circuit at a rate sufficient to offset the amount of liquid evaporated in the flow corridor.	09-23-2010
20110061816	COMPACT WASTEWATER CONCENTRATOR USING WASTE HEAT - A compact and portable liquid concentrator includes a gas inlet, a gas exit and a flow corridor connecting the gas inlet and the gas exit, wherein the flow corridor includes a narrowed portion that accelerates the gas through the flow corridor. A liquid inlet injects liquid into the gas stream at a point prior to the narrowed portion so that the gas-liquid mixture is thoroughly mixed within the flow corridor, causing a portion of the liquid to be evaporated. A demister or fluid scrubber downstream of the narrowed portion removes entrained liquid droplets from the gas stream and re-circulates the removed liquid to the liquid inlet through a re-circulating circuit. Fresh liquid to be concentrated is also introduced into the re-circulating circuit at a rate sufficient to offset the amount of liquid evaporated in the flow corridor.	03-17-2011
20110083556	COMPACT WASTEWATER CONCENTRATOR AND POLLUTANT SCRUBBER - A compact and portable liquid concentrator includes a gas inlet, a gas exit and a flow corridor connecting the gas inlet and the gas exit, wherein the flow corridor includes a narrowed portion that accelerates the gas through the flow corridor. A liquid inlet injects liquid into the gas stream at a point prior to the narrowed portion so that the gas-liquid mixture is thoroughly mixed within the flow corridor, causing a portion of the liquid to be evaporated. A demister or fluid scrubber downstream of the narrowed portion removes entrained liquid droplets from the gas stream and re-circulates the removed liquid to the liquid inlet through a re-circulating circuit.

20110100924	Compact Wastewater Concentrator and Contaminant Scrubber - A compact and portable liquid concentrator and contaminant scrubber includes a gas inlet, a gas exit and a flow corridor connecting the gas inlet and the gas exit, wherein the flow corridor includes a narrowed portion that accelerates the gas through the flow corridor. A liquid inlet injects liquid into the gas stream at a point prior to the narrowed portion so that the gas-liquid mixture is thoroughly mixed within the flow corridor, causing a portion of the liquid to be evaporated. A demister or fluid scrubber downstream of the narrowed portion removes entrained liquid droplets from the gas stream and re-circulates the removed liquid to the liquid inlet through a re-circulating circuit. A reagent may be mixed with the liquid to react with contaminants in the liquid.	05-05-2011
