| 20090235568 | Firearm Pre-Muzzle Lead Emission Containment Device - A device for limiting, controlling, and disposing of lead particles released from a firearm's openings and leakage areas rear of the muzzle. The device is composed of a cylindrical clear polycarbonate enclosure mounted on an aluminum frame which encloses the firearm and the shooters hands. A small opening at the rear of the cylinder allows the firearm muzzle to discharge the projectile. A restricted opening at the front of the cylinder allows the shooter to place hands and firearm within the enclosure. The clear Polycarbonate provides light entry and visibility while affording the shooter some protection against a malfunctioning firearm. The enclosure is under negative air pressure in relation to the environment outside the enclosure. The negative air pressure is provided by either the bullet retention system that the device is mounted to or separately by a connection to a commercially available High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter vacuum. | 09-24-2009 |

| 20110277347 | Contoured Fluid-Filled Chamber With A Tensile Member - A fluid-filled chamber may include an upper barrier portion, a lower barrier portion, and a tensile member. An upper tensile layer of the tensile member may be secured to the upper barrier portion, and a lower tensile layer of the tensile member may be secured to the lower barrier portion. The upper barrier portion and the lower barrier portion may have first areas and second areas. The first areas may be indentations extending into the chamber, and the second areas may be protrusions extending outward from the chamber. At least a portion of the first areas may be unbonded with the upper barrier portion and the lower barrier portion. Accordingly, one or more properties of the chamber, such as a flexibility, stiffness, rigidity, tensile response, compressibility, or force attenuation property, may be altered. | 11-17-2011 |

| 20110135416 | SPINDLE APPARATUS FOR RECEIVING AND DRIVING A TOOL HOLDER - A spindle apparatus for receiving and driving a tool holder, comprises a drive, a shaft coupled to the drive with a forward end of the shaft having a receptor for affixation of a tool holder, and a clamping device supported at the forward end of the shaft for integral driven rotation therewith. The clamping device has a clamping element disposed within the receptor and selectively actuable between an active position for retaining the tool holder and an inactive position for inserting and releasing the tool holder. An actuator is operatively connected with the clamping device for controlling movement of the clamping element between the active and inactive positions. The actuator is disposed adjacent the forward end of the shaft in surrounding relation thereto, which facilitates a particularly compact, efficient and reliable design. | 06-09-2011 |

| 20110116687 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR OBJECT CLASSIFICATION - A method of classifying an object, in particular of classifying a vehicle by evaluating the degree of correlation between an image data set corresponding to an image of at least part of the vehicle and each of a plurality of reference data sets each of which corresponds to a reference image of a vehicle comprises the steps of establishing the vehicle's aspect and selecting the plurality of reference data sets from a larger group of such data sets on the basis of the vehicle's aspect. By selecting from the larger group only those reference data sets which correspond to the vehicle's aspect, faster classification is achieved for a given level of processing resources. Alternatively, for a given processing or classification rate, the level of processing resources may be reduced compared to the prior art. | 05-19-2011 |
