| 20100241902 | System and method for performing automated testing of protective relay equipment - A system and method are provided that avoid the need to tether a computer to a test set in order to run a test sequence on a protective relay and obtain result data. A decoupling can be performed by generating command files that can be placed in storage media or provided to the test set separately rather than sending timed commands directly from the computer to the test set. Similarly, a result file generator on the test set can obtain test results and generate a result file that can be placed in such storage media or transported separately to be used by a reporting tool on the computer in the normal fashion. It has been found that various ways of decoupling are possible, using any suitable transport scheme including physical and electronic, both wired and wireless. | 09-23-2010 |

| 20090233504 | Life guard tow vest - In accordance with the aspects of the present invention (Life Jacket), The LIFE GUARD TOW VEST/HARNESS VEST is to assist the less experienced swimmers in a safe rescue attempt, for all involved, by placing this HARNESS VEST on survivor and towing them with the attachment to the line and GUARD TOW VEST, also to sustain strength when trying to maintain a group while treading water. The group will be able to use the “harness strap” featured by attaching the snap hook to the D rings to the left or right of each vest and maintain group integrity while protecting the weaker swimmers and also maintaining their personal strength, that would be lost by holding on to one another against the currents. This will also make it much easier for experienced professionals; it will enable them to pull a victim or multiple victims from the water at once while maintaining their personal strength in the occasion of an unconscious or hysterical survivor. The harness on the HARNESS VEST portion of the product has a triple purpose it can be lifted in a helicopter rescue attempt, as well as the attachment for group integrity, and tow able features. This also increases the expedience, safety and efficiency of the rescue. The current life jackets do not have the advantages of the features the LIFE GUARD TOW VEST/HARNESS present. | 09-17-2009 |
