20120110338 | Protecting the Integrity and Privacy of Data with Storage Leases - Storage leases specify access restrictions and time periods, restricting access to their associated data during the storage lease time period. Storage leases may be assigned to individual data storage blocks or groups of data storage blocks in a data storage device. A data storage device may include any arbitrary number of different storage leases assigned to different portions of its data storage blocks. Storage lease-enabled devices may provide security certificates to verify that data access operations have been performed as requested and that their storage leases are being enforced. Storage lease-enabled devices compare storage lease information for data units with the current time using a clock isolated from access by storage clients or time certificates from one or more trusted time servers. Storage leases may be used in combination with backup applications, file systems, database systems, peer-to-peer data storage, and cloud storage systems. | 05-03-2012 |

20110037192 | FLEXIBLE LIP EXTRUDER, AND METHODS - An extrusion die or extruder having a flexible lip that is moveable by a geared mechanism. A shaft is operably connected to at least one gear, which in turn is operably connected to a movable lip of the extruder. Rotation of the shaft results in movement of the extruder lip. | 02-17-2011 |
20120088006 | PATCH COATING DIE - A coating die having a shut-off bar positioned to stop the flow of coating material within the flow channel of the die when the shut-off bar is in the closed position. In the closed position, the shut-off bar extends across the material flow channel, blocking flow of coating material therethrough. The shut-off bar moves essentially orthogonal to the direction of material flow. In some embodiments, the flow channel includes a shoulder against which the shut-off bar physically seals, the seal being essentially transverse or orthogonal to the direction of the material flow channel. Coating dies having a shut-off bar are particularly suited for patch coating applications. | 04-12-2012 |

20120183371 | Engineered Lumber Panel Fastener - A fastener adapted for anchoring engineered lumber panels has a threaded portion with a double included securement thread having an included angle between 15° and 25°. The ratio of the major thread diameter to the minor diameter exceeds 2.0 to provide a large thread surface to resist pull out. The fastener also includes a drill tip having an effective diameter substantially equal to the minor diameter of the thread. The fastener is configured to resist cocking upon being driven into the engineered lumber panel and to resist marring of the panel fascia. | 07-19-2012 |
