Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120016551Charge Notification Method for Extended Range Electric Vehicles - The described principles provide a method and system for assisting a user of an electric vehicle in maintaining a charge state of the chargeable onboard energy storage system so as to be able to forgo the use of an auxiliary power unit to great extent. The method, also implemented by the system, comprises identifying charging locations for the vehicle, and prompting the user to charge the vehicle when the vehicle is at a charging location and a charge is need to avoid the use of the auxiliary power unit for a learned or planned journey. The charge reminder my be visible and/or audible within the vehicle and may optionally be remote from the vehicle.01-19-2012

20100032383FILTER ELEMENT INCLUDING A FILTER PRESS PLATE - A filter element with a filter medium and at least one retainer, to which the filter medium is fixed. The retainer comprises a retainer base body and a retainer attachment. The filter medium is arranged between the retainer base body and the retainer attachment at least in sections, and at least one profile element is formed on the retainer base body and/or on the retainer attachment to allow form-fitting and/or force-fitting retention of the filter medium there between.02-11-2010
20100088864FASTENING ELEMENT FOR TWO-DIMENSIONAL FIBRE MATERIAL AND METHOD FOR FASTENING TWO-DIMENSIONAL FIBRE MATERIAL - The invention relates to a fastening element for two-dimensional fibre material comprising a basic element and pin-shaped profile elements, which protrude from the basic element in order to penetrate the fibre material. Provision is made for the profile elements to be deformable in order to form retaining heads for the fibre material. The invention further relates to a method for fastening two-dimensional fibre material which can be carried out with a fastening element of such type. By the method in accordance with the invention a cold micro-riveting can be achieved.04-15-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090064920METHOD AND DEVICE FOR RECORDING PERIODIC MEDICINAL DOSAGES - A dosage reminder device is disclosed. The device is comprised of a front plate, a set of slides inserted into the front plate and a back plate connected to the front plate. Each slide indicates a first position for a dosage not taken, a second position to indicate a dosage taken, or to a third position to indicate no dosage. The rear of the back plate has a removable adhesive cover that once removed, facilitates adhering the dosage reminder device to a medicine vial.03-12-2009

20090068668Waveguide-Based Optical Scanning Systems - A scanning sensor system, methods of use and kits for detecting a biologically active analyte are provided. The scanning sensor system includes a light source, a detector, a substrate comprising a plurality of waveguides and a plurality of optical sensing sites in optical communication with one or more waveguide of the substrate, and at least one adapter configured to couple with the substrate and provide optical communication between the light source, the waveguides of the substrate, and the detector.03-12-2009
20090312188SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NUCLEIC ACIDS SEQUENCING BY PHASED SYNTHESIS - A system and methods of sequencing a nucleic acid by detecting the identity of a fluorescent nucleotide analogue incorporated at the 3′ end of a growing nucleic acid strand are provided. One method includes the steps of (a) immobilizing a plurality of complexes comprising a template nucleic acid, a primer configured to hybridize to the template and a polymerase, at a plurality of optical sensing sites of a substrate, wherein the substrate is part of a waveguide-based optical scanning system; (b) extending the primer by a single nucleotide with the polymerase and one or more fluorescent nucleotide analogues using a polymerase extension reaction, wherein each type of fluorescent nucleotide analogue comprises a unique fluorescent tag optionally configured to inhibit further primer extension and/or a blocking agent at the 3′ end and wherein incorporation of the fluorescent nucleotide analogue reversibly terminates the polymerase extension reaction; (c) detecting the unique tag of the fluorescent nucleotide analogue by optically scanning the substrate using the optical scanning system to identify the fluorescent nucleotide analogue incorporated by the polymerase reaction; (d) recording the results of the optical scanning of the substrate; (e) reversing the termination of the polymerase extension reaction by providing a photo-cleaving pulse of light to one or more of the optical sensing sites of the substrate to cleave the fluorescent tag or the blocking agent; and (f) repeating steps (b) through (e).12-17-2009
20100302544WAVEGUIDE-BASED DETECTION SYSTEM WITH SCANNING LIGHT SOURCE - The invention provides methods and devices for generating optical pulses in one or more waveguides using a spatially scanning light source. A detection system, methods of use thereof and kits for detecting a biologically active analyte molecule are also provided. The system includes a scanning light source, a substrate comprising a plurality of waveguides and a plurality of optical sensing sites in optical communication with one or more waveguide of the substrate, a detector that is coupled to and in optical communication with the substrate, and means for spatially translating a light beam emitted from said scanning light source such that the light beam is coupled to and in optical communication with the waveguides of the substrate at some point along its scanning path. The use of a scanning light sources allows the coupling of light into the waveguides of the substrate in a simple and cost-effective manner.12-02-2010
