20080317991 | Multiple wall dimensionally recoverable tubing for forming reinforced medical devices - A multi-layered dimensionally recoverable tubing system and method for making the same, in which the system has a first layer, a second layer, and a reinforcing structure. The first layer includes at least one crosslinkable polymer. The second layer is disposed adjacent to the first layer and includes a polymer. A reinforcing structure is disposed adjacent to the first layer. One or both of the first layer and second layer are dimensionally recoverable. The first layer is substantially crosslinked, and the second layer is substantially uncrosslinked. To form a reinforced medical device, the system is heated and dimensionally recovered, where the reinforcing structure becomes incorporated in the second layer. | 12-25-2008 |

20120291821 | WATER INLET FLUSH FOR DISHWASHER FILTER - In certain embodiments of the present disclosure, a fluid filtration assembly for a dishwasher system is described. The dishwasher system includes a tub defining a wash chamber configured to receive dishwasher contents. The fluid filtration assembly includes a filter assembly having a filter material, a filter fluid inlet, and a filter fluid outlet. The filter fluid inlet is in flow communication with the wash chamber and the filter material. The filter assembly further includes a cleaning fluid inlet that is configured to backflush the filter material. The filter fluid outlet is in flow communication with both the cleaning fluid inlet and the filter fluid inlet. The fluid filtration assembly further includes a valve assembly in flow communication with the cleaning fluid inlet through a first flow path. | 11-22-2012 |
20120291827 | SPRAY TINES FOR A DISHWASHER RACK - Tines that can provide a spray into the interior of containers placed onto a rack of a dishwasher are provided. More particularly, hollow tines or tines having an internal fluid path for feeding washing fluid to one or more openings at or near an upper end of the tines are described. As a fluid is sprayed or ejected from the opening(s), it provides for the cleaning of the interior of glasses, containers, and other dishes placed over the tines. | 11-22-2012 |
20120312337 | DISHWASHER WITH A MOTOR DRIVEN FILTER BACKFLUSH SYSTEM AND ASSOCIATED BACKFLUSH METHOD - A dishwasher has a wash chamber and sump disposed below the wash chamber, wherein wash fluid supplied to the wash chamber collects in the sump. A main pump is configured to drawn wash fluid from the sump and supply the wash fluid to the wash chamber, for example via spray arm assemblies. A filter is operably disposed to filter the wash fluid recirculated by the main pump. A backflush line has an outlet disposed downstream of the filter, and a backflush pump is configured to supply backflush fluid through the backflush line against the filter. A reservoir separate from the sump is provided and sized to hold a measured amount of fluid. The backflush pump draws the backflush fluid from the reservoir at a defined time. | 12-13-2012 |
20130000762 | FLUID FLOW DIVERTER FOR A DISHWASHER APPLIANCE - The present invention provides a diverter that may be used to control the flow of fluid to different locations or components within a dishwashing appliance. One or more dual outlets, each having an outer port that surrounds an inner port, can be used with a rotating disk (or rotating valve) to selectively control the flow of fluid to various locations within the appliance. One or more single outlets may also be added to the diverter as desired depending upon the number of locations in the dishwasher to which the delivery of the fluid is desirable. | 01-03-2013 |

20150007844 | DENTAL FLOSS APPARATUS - A compact and reusable floss pick having a dispensing supply of dental floss. A floss arm and bridge is provided with two prongs for receiving a length of dental floss removably wrapped around the prongs such that a taut length of dental floss is provided therebetween. A cutting notch is provided for removing an old or used portion of dental floss from the supply. A removable cap is also provided for covering the floss arm when not in use and providing a handle when the device is being used. | 01-08-2015 |

20130335558 | OPTICAL AUTOMATIC ATTITUDE MEASUREMENT FOR LIGHTWEIGHT PORTABLE OPTICAL SYSTEMS - An optical automatic attitude measurement device for a lightweight portable optical system is disclosed. In one embodiment, a first optical device is configured to provide an attitude beam. A second optical device mechanically coupled to the first optical device to a lose tolerance. The second optical device is configured to provide a reference beam and to receive the attitude beam from the first optical device. The second optical device is further configured to obtain an attitude measurement by computing a differential measurement between the reference beam and the attitude beam in x and y planes at room temperature. | 12-19-2013 |
20140099823 | STACKING CONNECTOR FOR MILITARY APPLICATIONS - An electrical connector assembly adapted for military use comprising a high density maintenance connector which supports high bandwidth video export and low level maintenance functions, a lower density I/O connector, the stacking feature allows multiple branches in an ad hoc distribution center, custom to each user, and the programmability allows for identical cables/stacking connectors to be used in different configurations. | 04-10-2014 |

20080222583 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR LOGIC VERIFICATION USING MIRROR INTERFACE - Verification of external interfaces of cores on system-on-chip (SOC) designs frequently entails the purchase of costly standardized software models to test the external interfaces. Typically, the standardized models provide more functionality than is needed. Instead of standardized models, test models may be developed and utilized, but this also incurs cost and delay. The present invention provides an efficient and economical alternative. A mirror interface, or copy of the external interface undergoing verification, is used with a standardized control mechanism to verify the external interface. Because all interface I/O connections can thereby be utilized, a cost-effective and highly reusable way of verifying such interfaces is provided. | 09-11-2008 |
20080312896 | Optimal bus operation performance in a logic simulation environment - Sample-count feedback from bus functional models and a binary convergence algorithm are to generate optimal sampling values for an accelerator, or hardware assisted simulator. The simulator includes a bus functional model and a driver program. A software readable register maintains a count of a number of samples provided the simulator in execution of a transaction on the bus functional model. For each supported bus functional model, a sample count retrieved from the bus functional model and a last sampling value given the hardware assisted simulator is maintained, and a binary convergence algorithm applied to generate sampling values based on the last sampling value given to the hardware assisted simulator and the last actual sampling value used by a given bus functional model for a transaction. | 12-18-2008 |
