| 20100074997 | Starch Based Fat-Replacer by Crystallization of Enzyme Modified Starch and High-Pressure Shearing - We disclose a composition comprising greater than about 95% d.s.b. of a starch comprising short chain amylose having an average degree of polymerization (DP) from about 20 to about 150, wherein an aqueous slurry comprising about 20% d.s.b. of the composition has a minimum yield stress of at least 400 Pa. We also disclose a method of preparing the composition comprising contacting a starch paste with a 4-α-glucanotransferase, to yield a chain-extended starch; contacting the chain-extended starch with a debranching enzyme, to yield a debranched starch; crystallizing the debranched starch, to yield a crystallized debranched starch; and shearing the crystallized debranched starch, to yield the composition. We also disclose a food formulation comprising a foodstuff and the composition. | 03-25-2010 |

| 20100020960 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES - An enhanced services system for a telecommunications network includes operator equipment accessible by an operator, and a routing system for routing a call from a caller to the operator equipment. The caller may access e-mail creation and service and/or interpreter services. A method of sending an electronic message includes routing a call from a caller to operator equipment using a routing system, inputting information provided by the caller into the operator equipment to create an electronic message, and sending the electronic message to at least one recipient. A method of translating a telephone conversation includes providing a routing system to connect to operator equipment a call from a caller, routing the call to the operator equipment using the routing system to enable communications between at least the caller and a bilingual operator, and translating at least a portion of the conversation between the caller and a third party. | 01-28-2010 |

| 20090261785 | METHOD FOR MANAGING A MODULAR POWER SOURCE - Disclosed is a method for management of a modular power source including the steps of setting a first operation threshold, selecting a module | 10-22-2009 |
| 20090263708 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF INTEGRATED THERMAL MANAGEMENT FOR A MULTI-CELL BATTERY PACK - Disclosed is a multi-cell battery pack system that includes a plurality of cylindrical cells; a cradle with an interior surface that defines a channel extending through the length of the cradle and an exterior surface that mechanically positions each of the cells radially around and parallel to the channel and exchanges heat with the cells by extending around of the circumference of the cylindrical cell and substantially extending between the two opposing end surfaces of the cell; a heat conductor that resides at least partially within the channel and exchanges heat with the interior surface of the cradle; and a heat exchanger that exchanges heat with the heat conductor, wherein the cradle, the heat conductor, and the heat exchanger cooperate to exchange heat between the cells and the heat exchanger. | 10-22-2009 |
| 20100133030 | FRAME FOR A RIDE-ON VEHICLE HAVING A PLURALITY OF BATTERY PACKS - In one embodiment, the invention is a frame for a ride-on vehicle having at least one front wheel, at least one rear wheel, and a plurality of substantially similar battery packs. The frame defines a central plane and includes a front end located adjacent to the front wheel(s), a rear end located adjacent to the rear wheel(s), and a lattice structure that extends substantially between the front end and the rear end. The lattice structure includes a first portion that includes battery pack mounts that secure a first subset of the battery packs arranged in two layers, and includes a second portion that includes battery pack mounts that secure a second subset of the batter packs arranged in a single layer. The lattice structure also defines a truss that mechanically couples the front wheel(s) to the rear wheel(s). | 06-03-2010 |
| 20100136405 | BATTERY PACK WITH OPTIMIZED MECHANICAL, ELECTRICAL, AND THERMAL MANAGEMENT - Disclosed is a multi-cell battery pack system with integrated thermal and electrical management that includes a plurality of cells, a plurality of cradles that each define a channel that extends through the length of the cradle and having an external surface that mechanically positions each of the cells radially around and parallel to the channel, that exchanges heat with the cells and that electrically couples with each of the cells, and an endplate that, when the cradle is mechanically coupled to the endplate, the channel of the cradle is connected to a fluid circuit that routes thermally conductive fluid through the channel to exchange heat with the channel and the cells are connected to an electrical circuit. | 06-03-2010 |

| 20110262785 | BATTERY MODULE - A battery module that includes a battery unit composed of a plurality of flat cells and having an end face, a container with an end piece that encloses the battery unit, and a damping assembly disposed between the end face and the end piece. The damping assembly includes a pressure plate, coupled to the end face, that distributes a force substantially equally over the end face. The damping assembly further includes a damping mechanism that damps battery unit oscillations within the container and applies the force to the pressure plate. Coupling the end plate to the damping mechanism compresses the damping mechanism, and causes the damping mechanism to exert a reactionary force against the pressure plate. Furthermore, the damping assembly compresses and substantially suspends the battery unit within the container, such that one face of the battery unit does not substantially contact the container interior. | 10-27-2011 |
