| 20100164196 | Telescoping Vehicle Step - A telescoping vehicle step comprised of at least two slide beams and a step. The first slide beam is shaped to slide within a receiver, or a similarly shaped structure, mounted to the vehicle. The second slide beam is inserted into the first slide beam. A step is attached to the outermost slide beam. The slide beams and step form a telescoping vehicle step which can be used to facilitate entry into the cargo bed of a vehicle. During use, the beams form a telescopic extension member which positions the step beyond the outer perimeter of the vehicle. When not being used, the beams form a collapsed configuration which holds the step near the opening of the receiver. | 07-01-2010 |

| 20090039324 | COMPACT DEVICE FOR LIFTING PARTITIONS - A device for lifting office partitions sufficiently to allow floor tiles upon which the partitions normally rest to be replaced, without disassembling the partitions, employs L-shaped brackets having horizontally extending tabs which may be wedged beneath the partitions. A manually reciprocated handle pumps fluid into a cylinder to force a piston outwardly so that the piston rod rotates a lever to lift the brackets and raise the partitions. | 02-12-2009 |

| 20090292416 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR REMOTELY TESTING MULTIPLE COMMUNICATION CHANNEL INPUTS TO A VEHICLE COMPUTER - An embodiment of the present invention includes an apparatus for remotely testing a plurality of communication channel inputs to an automobile computer. The apparatus may include a microprocessor electrically connected to a persistent memory. The memory may have stored therein communication channel test messages corresponding to each of two or more communication channel inputs to an automobile computer. At least one of the communication channels is a wireless communication channel. The microprocessor may be configured to output a test message over a selected communication channel to the automobile computer. | 11-26-2009 |

| 20080258630 | Light String Lamp Bypass Device - A light string lamp bypass device is comprised of a plug and a conducting member. The plug is shaped and sized to releasably fit within a lamp socket of the light string. The conducting member is attached to the plug. It is shaped, sized and positioned upon the plug such that the conducting member is electrically connected to the socket terminals, is positioned below the top surface of the plug and is positioned between the socket terminals when the plug is inserted into the lamp socket. The impedance of the conducting member substantially matches the impedance of an operating lamp within a lamp socket of the light string. A section of a light string may be darkened by replacing its lamps with the device. A typical use is for the darkening of a section of a light string connecting two decorated bushes. | 10-23-2008 |
| 20080258860 | Universal Light String Lamp Bypass Device - A universal light string lamp bypass device is comprised of a plug and a resistor. The plug is shaped and sized to releasably fit within the base of a lamp assembly. The plug encapsulates the resistor with the resistor leads extending from the bottom end of the plug. When the encapsulated resistor is inserted into a lamp base it can be electrically connected to the lamp socket terminals. The impedance of the resistor substantially matches the impedance of an operating lamp within a lamp socket of the light string. Most lamp bases have a standard configuration for receiving a lamp. This device fits within a lamp base after the lamp has been removed. A section of a light string may be darkened by replacing its lamps with the device. A typical use is for the darkening of a section of a light string connecting two decorated bushes. | 10-23-2008 |

| 20110076502 | PURIFIED ACETYLATED DERIVATIVES OF CASTOR OIL AND COMPOSTIONS INCLUDING SAME - The present disclosure is directed to a single phase acetylated castor component (SP-ACC). An acetylated castor component is purified to produce the SP-ACC which contains a reduced amount of, or no, insoluble component(s) therein. The SP-ACC enhances the performance and properties of plasticizers of which it is a component. | 03-31-2011 |
| 20110137003 | Classified Catalyst Composition, Apparatus, and Method - The present disclosure is directed to an apparatus and process for producing a catalyst composition and a low-fines catalyst composition in particular. A crossflow classification device is used to separate large catalyst particles from catalyst fines, A slurry of a catalyst composition is introduced into the crossflow classification device. A classified catalyst composition is retrieved from a retentate produced as a result of subjecting the catalyst slurry to a crossflow classification process. The solids content of the pre-classified and/or post-classified catalyst slurry is determined by way of NMR spectroscopy. The solids content determination accounts for migration of wash liquid from the catalyst composition and into the slurry liquid phase, The classified catalyst composition has a low-fines content and produces a polyolefin composition with a low polymer fines content. | 06-09-2011 |

| 20110005488 | Engine manifold with modular runners - An intake manifold assembly for an internal combustion engine that has a modular construction and includes a base member, a runner, and a shell, wherein the base member removably attaches to the engine, and the runner and the shell each separately and independently removably attach to the base member. In another aspect, the assembly further includes a fastener for attaching the runner to the base member, wherein the shell is formed so as to retain the fastener between the shell and the base member when the shell is attached to the base member. In another aspect, the assembly further includes a bumper affixed to a surface of the base member, wherein the bumper abuts a surface of the internal combustion engine. In another aspect, the base member includes a sealing ridge that mates with a sealing groove provided on the shell. | 01-13-2011 |
