Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100301848Method for Continuously Determining the Tensile Force F in a Cable of a Parking Brake - Presented is a method for continuously determining the tensile force F in a cable of a parking brake that includes transmitting the tensile force F to a cable grommet coupled to a first end of an expandable intermediate part that includes a magnet and/or a magnetic sensor. The first end of the expandable intermediate part faces away from a drive spindle coupled to a second end of the expandable intermediate part. The method further includes changing the length of the expandable intermediate part in the direction of its longitudinal axis in response to the transmitted tensile force F, moving the magnet and the magnetic sensor relative to each other in response to the change in length, changing the signal voltage of the magnetic sensor in response to the relative movement between the magnet and the magnetic sensor, and determining the tensile force F from the respective signal voltage.12-02-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110153624DATA MODEL ACCESS CONFIGURATION AND CUSTOMIZATION - Apparatus, systems, and methods may operate to publish one or more stored back end data models accessible to a user interface and a development environment; to receive a configuration context; to generate derived model attributes by filtering, according to the configuration context, back end data attributes associated with the stored back end data models; to derive a set of mapping rules based on the derived model attributes; and store the set of mapping rules to be used to direct run-time data model request transformation activity. Further activities may include receiving an end-user request from a displayed user interface, transforming the end-user request into a transformed request according to the stored set of mapping rules, and transmitting the transformed request to one of the stored back end data models. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.06-23-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080220541Process for structuring a surface layer - A process for structuring a surface layer of an object includes applying bio-components to the surface of the object that carry away surface material. The bio-components are contained in at least one of a nutrient and osmotic protective medium. The at least one of a nutrient and osmotic protective medium having the bio-components contained therein is removed after the surface material is carried away from the object surface.09-11-2008

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090019704COAXIAL CABLE PREPARATION TOOL AND METHOD OF USE THEREOF - A coaxial cable preparation tool is provided wherein the tool includes a body, having a first end and a second end, the first end including a first cavity configured to accommodate insertion of a coaxial cable therein. An outer conductor blade is located near the first end of the body and is movably operable with the body to cut an outer jacket, an outer conductor, and an inner dielectric of the cable when the cable is inserted into the first cavity. A center conductor chamfering member is positioned at the back of a second cavity, the second cavity extending from the second end of the body. A dielectric coring blade is positioned within the second cavity, and a jacket stripping blade is positioned at least partially within the second cavity. A corresponding method of coaxial cable preparation is provided.01-22-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110130025CONNECTOR WITH INTERNALLY ACTUATED THREAD SEAL - A novel, reliable, moisture migration preventing cable connector for non-standard port attachment is provided. Such a connector device includes a deformable sealing element that is clear of mating port threads during connector attachment to a cable port, but that deforms upon actuation of a mated thread device rotated around the connector subsequent to cable port attachment. Such deformation allows for the sealing element to enter the open areas of the mated threads thereby preventing the migration of moisture into the cable connector, protecting not only the connector threads, but also the mating port, as well as the internal dielectric and center conductor of the cable itself. A method of providing a signal connection and transfer in a cable system is also encompassed within this invention.06-02-2011
20110143586COAXIAL CABLE CONNECTOR SLEEVE - An adapter sleeve for a coaxial cable connector is provided to transmit torque to a nut member on the cable connector. The adapter sleeve includes a cylindrical body having a first end and a second end defining a bore along a longitudinal axis therethrough. The bore defines an interior surface; the interior surface has a torque transmission feature sized to slideably engage the nut member. The first end of the body has at least one radially inward defined retainer lip. The retainer lip is dimensioned and adapted to engage with a corresponding retaining structure on an external surface of the nut member.06-16-2011
