Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090127528LOAD CONTROL POWER TRANSMISSION - The present invention is a transmission used with a winch drum. The transmission includes a drive shaft, an output shaft, a hydraulic or pneumatic system, a cooling system, a gear coaxially mounted on the output shaft, and an electric motor for powering the gear. The drive shaft is adapted to drive the winch drum and includes a clutch disc extending generally radially outwards from the drive shaft. The clutch disc has a face. The output shaft coaxially surrounds at least a portion of the drive shaft and includes a friction surface extending generally radially inward. The friction surface has a face opposing the face of the clutch disc. The hydraulic or pneumatic system is adapted to bring the faces into contact, and the cooling system is adapted to remove heat from the friction surface via a fluid coolant.05-21-2009

20110222965Method for Chip Seal Coating - This invention relates to a method for chip seal coating. Aggregate is pre-coated, at ambient temperature, with an emulsion. The pre-coated aggregate is then allowed to sit, preferably for at least 24 hours, to allow the mixture to break into the asphalt and soapy water components of the mixture. The aggregate is then air dried to a moisture content of between 1 percent minimum to a maximum of 15 percent. A paved surface may be manufactured by first apply hot asphalt binder to a properly prepared base. The pre-coated aggregate is then spread on top of the binder. Using a roller, the aggregate is embedded into the binder and compacted.09-15-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110152144Environmentally-Friendly Kelp-Based Energy Saving Lubricants, Biofuels, and Other Industrial Products - A natural algae-based synthetic lubricant derived from harvesting kelp from the ocean, recovering sieve sap from the kelp, drying the sieve sap, and removing salts and oxides to leave a composition having a concentration of polyols (Mannitol about 70% and Mannose about 0.4%) and about 28% by weight of a high molecular weight polymer. The synthetic lubricant may be used as a drag reducing agent and additive for existing lubricants and also further reacted with fatty esters to form a hybrid lubricant that may serve as a total replacement for existing lubricants.06-23-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090022760Alphavirus Replicon Particles Matched to Protein Antigens as Immunological Adjuvants - The immune response to an antigen of interest, especially one in purified form, can be significantly enhanced by the simultaneous administration of an alphavirus replicon particle which expresses the same antigen. This allows for the use of significantly smaller quantities of the protein antigen than in conventional immunization strategies, and this new immunization strategy can also eliminate the need for boosting administration of the antigen or it can reduce the number of boosts required for an effective immune response to the antigen.01-22-2009
20110086062ALPHAVIRUS REPLICON PARTICLES MATCHED TO PROTEIN ANTIGENS AS IMMUNOLOGICAL ADJUVANTS - The immune response to an antigen of interest, especially one in purified form, can be significantly enhanced by the simultaneous administration of an alphavirus replicon particle which expresses the same antigen.

20110151015IMMUNOMODULATOR PARTICLES AND METHODS OF TREATING - A method of stimulating an immune response in a subject including administering a micrometer-sized particle coupled with an antigen to the subject, wherein increasing the aspect ratio of the micrometer-sized particle increases the immune response. A method of stimulating an immune response in a subject including administering to the subject a plurality of particles, wherein each particle is coupled with an immuno stimulating agent and a protein. A vaccine particle composition including a plurality of particles configured to release a first protein at a first rate and a second protein at a second rate and configured to provide priming and boosting capability in a single dose.06-23-2011
