| 20090118673 | NEEDLE INJECTION CATHETER - A needle injection catheter includes a delivery tube that slidably surrounds a hypotube that has at least three hollow needle portions connected to and extending outwardly at its distal end. The needle portions are formed of resilient material and curve outwardly from the delivery tube. The ends of the needle portions are shaped to penetrate tissue when the hypotube is urged out of the delivery tube. A first sensor is located adjacent the distal end of the delivery tube and a second sensor is located adjacent the end of the needle portion. The sensors are electrically connected to first and second notification devices located adjacent a first end of the delivery tube. Radiopaque markers are affixed to the delivery tube to locate the tip using an enhanced imaging system. The markers are sized, shaped, positioned and of different densities to locate the tip both axially and radially within body structures. | 05-07-2009 |
| 20090312617 | NEEDLE INJECTION CATHETER - The needle injection catheter includes a delivery tube and at least one hypotube that fits slidably within the delivery tube. The hypotube has at least three hollow needle portions extending outwardly at its distal end. The needle portions curve outwardly and have ends shaped to penetrate tissue. At least one reference electrode is located on the delivery tube, spaced from the second end. At least one proximal electrode is located adjacent and spaced from the end of the needle portion. The proximal electrode is electrically connected to a first notification device. A microcircuit is electrically connected to the proximal electrode, the reference electrode and to a power supply. A distal electrode is located adjacent the end of the needle portion and electrically connected to the microcircuit. A tip electrode is located adjacent the second end of the delivery tube and electrically connected to a second notification device and the microcircuit. | 12-17-2009 |

| 20090018497 | MAGNETICALLY GUIDED CATHETER WITH CONCENTRIC NEEDLE PORT - A catheter adapted for ablation, mapping, injection, and directional control by an external magnetic system has a catheter body, an intermediate section, and a tip section having a tip electrode configured with an omnidirectional distal end and a concentric needle port. The tip electrode houses a magnetic device and a position sensor arranged in an integrated configuration, wherein the configuration facilitates a path in the tip section for a component, including an injection needle, to extend through the tip section for extension and retraction with reduced stress and friction. The integrated configuration is an efficient use of space in the tip electrode that allows the tip section to carry both the position sensor for determining location and orientation of the tip section and the necessary volume of magnetic or magnetizable material to accomplish magnetic navigation. The catheter also includes a very soft and flexible intermediate section and an even softer and more flexible distal transitional section carrying additional magnetic members to facilitate remote magnetic navigation. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20090099514 | AUTOMATED INJECTION CATHETER DEVICE AND SYSTEM - A device and system for automating catheter needle injection has a first actuator that extends a needle past the distal end of the catheter, a second actuator that depresses a plunger to deliver injectate through the needle and an agitator assembly to agitate the injectate before it enters the needle. The device and system may also include a force sensor coupled to the plunger to sense pressure to detect occlusion, and an optical sensor to sense movement of the second actuator. | 04-16-2009 |

| 20080264080 | Environmental control unit for harsh conditions - A method of controlling an air conditioning system of the type having a variable capacity compressor circulating refrigerant through a condenser, an expander, an evaporator and returning to the compressor. Sensors are disposed to sense a refrigerant condition selected from one of pressure and temperature on one or both the compressor high pressure and low pressure side; and, in the event of an overload condition, the sensors generate a control signal that effects operation of an actuator for moving a member in the compressor to vary the compressor capacity to the lowest capacity output. Alternatively, the generated control signal may vary the compressor speed. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20090253092 | FUEL CELL HEATER - A self-powered space heater comprises a fan, a burner, a heat exchanger and an fuel cell assembly. The fan generates an air flow. The burner is positioned downstream of the fan and communicates therewith. The burner produces a hot gas. The heat exchanger is positioned downstream of the burner and is operatively connected therewith for receiving at least some of the hot gas. The heat exchanger provides heat for an associated enclosure. The fuel cell assembly provides electrical energy to operate the space heater. The fuel cell assembly is operatively connected to the burner for receiving at least some of the hot gas. The fuel cell assembly includes a fuel cell component and a heat compartment for generating heat to heat the fuel cell component. A thermal output of the burner provides sufficient hot gas to operate both the heat exchanger and the fuel cell assembly. | 10-08-2009 |

| 20100274407 | MOBILE MICRO-GRID POWER SYSTEM CONTROLLER AND METHOD - Methods and control apparatus are presented for controlling supply of electrical power to a mobile micro-grid power system, in which a master controller automatically rebalances the micro-grid by activating and deactivating individual power supplies to preferentially activate non-fuel consuming power supplies and deactivate fuel consuming power supplies so as to minimize fuel consumption for the micro-grid power system. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20100281834 | Filtration heat transfer system - A filter cooling construction includes a mass of filtration material held in a filter body and a cooling member extending in the mass of filtration material. A manifold communicates with the cooling member for channeling a cooling fluid to the cooling member. In another embodiment, a heat transfer construction is provided so that a temperature control fluid can flow to the heat transfer member thereby selectively heating and cooling the mass of filtration material. Once use for such constructions is in air filters. | 11-11-2010 |

| 20100176073 | Stackable Stems - A stem may comprise a circular base, a plurality of outer ears, and a plurality of outer uprights. The circular base may have a circular outer perimeter centered on a center point of the circular base. The plurality of outer ears may protrude outwardly from the circular outer perimeter. The plurality of outer uprights may be respectively connected to each of the plurality of outer ears at a bottom end of each of the plurality of outer uprights. The plurality of outer uprights may be substantially parallel with each other and may be substantially perpendicular to the circular base. The stem may be configured to allow an additional stem to mateable stack inside the stem. The additional stem may be rotated (with respect to the stem) an incremental amount such that sides of outer ears of the additional stem may respectively contact sides of the outer uprights of the stem. | 07-15-2010 |
