| 20100249703 | STERILIZABLE VACUUM HANDPIECE - A sterilizable vacuum handpiece that may include a base unit reversibly coupled to a handle unit, having a central vacuum passage connecting proximal and distal ends. A hand-removable base unit valve may divide a base unit vacuum passage and a hand-removable handle unit valve may separate a handle unit vacuum passage, in adjustable fluid communication with each other. The valves may be retained within bores and counter-bores, and may achieve fluid-tight fit with O-rings retained within the valves. The valves may have vacuum passages with surface areas greater than or equal to a least diameter of the vacuum passage containing the valve. In at least one embodiment, the handle valve is releasably retained by the opposing ends of a “bucket-handle” shaped controller. Alternatively, the handpiece may be formed as a single combined unit, where the terms base unit and handle unit refer only to regions of an otherwise unified structure. | 09-30-2010 |

| 20100251581 | Device for Removing Wrinkles From the Sleeve of a Garment - A device for removing the wrinkles from the sleeve of a garment. A working surface defines a plurality of openings. Each of first and second sleeve holders are secured proximate an opening at a proximal end of each sleeve holder. First and second air bags are each configured to substantially surround a cooperating sleeve holder. Each sleeve holder and cooperating air bag is adapted to be received within a sleeve of the garment to extend the sleeve from the working surface. In one embodiment, a steam transfer device is configured to selectively transfer steam into each air bag and outwardly through each air bag to an interior surface of the sleeve. In another embodiment, a heated air transfer device is configured to selectively transfer heated air into each air bag and outwardly through each air bag to an interior surface of the sleeve. | 10-07-2010 |

| 20100300776 | Simplified Cooling Circuit For Powertrain Braking System - An efficient lubrication system for wet plate brake assemblies includes a flow control system that passes lubricant for cooling and lubrication through interdigitated wet brake plates when the plates are engaged. When the plates are disengaged, the wet plate assembly is controlled to limit its displacement by means of a pin and spring such that a gap is provided around the brake plates to provide a preferential path for lubricant, thus minimizing parasitic losses. | 12-02-2010 |

| 20100090169 | Electrochromic devices and polymer compositions - Blending an electrically active, anodically coloring, electrochromic polymer with a non-electrochromic, non-electrically conductive binder polymer greatly enhances the performance of the anodically coloring, electrochromic polymer in an electrochromic device over time. In addition to improved physical characteristics of the blend, e.g., film build, durability etc, the coloristic properties, including color space and color strength, of the device comprising the blend are more durable than when using the neat polymer, and in certain instances, the color space and color intensity provided by the blend is superior to that available from the neat polymer. | 04-15-2010 |

| 20100253994 | Devices containing compositions comprising cathodically coloring electrochromic polymers and binder polymers - Electrically active, cathodically coloring electrochromic polymers are blended with a non-electrochromic, non-electrically conductive binder polymer to provide an electrochomic composition with greatly enhanced performance in an electrochromic device over time. It is also found that blending an electrochromic polymer with a non-coloring electroactive material allows for greater design in preparing electrochromic devices as it enables the use of a higher amount of typically low coloring anodic materials due to increased need for charge balancing. | 10-07-2010 |

| 20080258765 | Low-power transceiver architectures for programmable logic integrated circuit devices - High-speed serial interface or transceiver circuitry on a programmable logic device integrated circuit (“PLD”) includes features that permit the PLD to satisfy a wide range of possible user needs or applications. This range includes both high-performance applications and applications in which reduced power consumption by the PLD is important. In the latter case, any one or more of various features can be used to help reduce power consumption. | 10-23-2008 |

| 20100277201 | EMBEDDED DIGITAL IP STRIP CHIP - An integrated circuit (IC) is provided. The IC includes a first region having an array of programmable logic cells. The IC also includes a second region incorporated into the IC and in communication with the first region. The second region includes standard logic cells and base cells. In one embodiment, the standard logic cells are assembled or interconnected to accommodate known protocols. The base cells include configurable logic to adapt to modifications to emerging communication protocols, which are supported by the base cells. The second region can be embedded in the first region in one embodiment. In another embodiment, the second region is defined around a perimeter of the first region. The configurable logic may be composed of hybrid logic elements that have metal mask programmable interconnections so that as emerging communication protocols evolve and are modified, the IC can be modified to accommodate to the changes in the protocol. In another embodiment, a generic device can be customized by replacing the original function with a completely new function targeting a specific application space, e.g., replacing the original function such as a PCI Express, used for computing based applications, with 40 G/100 G Ethernet and Interlaken, used in wireline applications. A method of designing an integrated circuit is also provided. | 11-04-2010 |
| 20110204919 | Apparatus and methods for adjusting performance of programmable logic devices - A programmable logic device (PLD) includes at least two regions. Each region includes electrical circuitry that has a set of transistors. Each of the two regions has a corresponding fixed transistor threshold voltage, a corresponding fixed transistor body bias, and a corresponding fixed supply voltage. | 08-25-2011 |
