| 20110035445 | SOCIAL NETWORKING SYSTEMS AND METHODS FACILITATING IN-PERSON INTERACTIONS - Social networking systems and methods for facilitating in-person interactions including the steps of storing a user profile for a first user into a database accessible by a networked host computer, the user profile including interest information describing the first user's interests, cross referencing an interest information indicia with the interest information, providing the first user with an indicator that includes the interest information indicia and that is configured to communicate the interest information indicia to nearby users, providing a second user with the interest information of the first user upon the second user accessing the host computer and entering the interest information indicia as a search query. The invention may facilitate in-person interaction, electronic dating, social networking, and other communication. | 02-10-2011 |

| 20100126928 | FILTER CARTRIDGE RETENTION TO NUTPLATE - A filter assembly where the filter cartridge is secured to the nutplate and a seal is provided between the filter cartridge and the nutplate. The sealing relationship between the filter cartridge and the nutplate is maintained during use of the filter assembly without using a spring engaged with the filter cartridge that biases the filter cartridge into engagement with the nutplate. | 05-27-2010 |
| 20100200490 | FILTER WITH LOCALIZED FLOW ATTACHMENT AND FILTER HEAD - A fluid filter device is described, where a flow attachment member provides a unique interface between the filtering element and a filter head. The fluid filter described herein generally provides a flow structure that is localized and sealed. The flow attachment member is configured to communicate fluid into and out of the fluid filter, and is configured to localize fluid flow both into and out of the fluid filter within a separating structure of the flow attachment member. The flow attachment member further includes a seal structure configured to substantially prevent or at least confine leakage to a localized area away from proximity of the edges of the housing. A composite filter head is described that has integrally molded inlet and outlet fittings. | 08-12-2010 |

| 20090272957 | CONNECTOR FOR RAILING SYSTEMS - A connector secures together a first member and a second member, wherein each of the first and second members of has an aperture and a wall thickness at the point ofjoining. The connector includes a body portion having a generally circular cross-section taken along a plane that is perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the body portion. The connector is secured to the first member in the aperture by an attachment being rigidly joined to the body portion. | 11-05-2009 |

| 20080272094 | PLASMA TORCH ELECTRODE WITH IMPROVED INSERT CONFIGURATIONS - An improved electrode for use in a plasma arc torch. The electrode includes an electrode body, a bore defined by and disposed in the electrode body, and an insert disposed in the bore. The insert and/or the bore of the electrode are configured to improve retention of the insert in the electrode, thereby extending electrode life. The invention also includes a method for forming the electrode. The method includes a step of positioning an insert into a bore of an electrode such that an exterior gap is established that is greater than a second gap. | 11-06-2008 |

| 20090032502 | Method and apparatus for sensing the length of a lead - The technology features an apparatus and a method for sensing the length of a lead that connects to a power source to a thermal processing system such as a plasma torch system. Components disposed in the thermal processing system enable the length of the lead to be sensed. In addition, the time for contact starting a thermal processing system enables determination of the length of the lead. | 02-05-2009 |

| 20080231299 | Vacuum chamber with two-stage longitudinal translation for circuit board testing - A circuit board tester that uses a dual-stage translation to bring a unit under test (UUT) into physical and electric contact first with a series of tall probes, then with a series of short probes. Initially, the UUT is mounted on a support plate, and spaced apart from both the tall and short probes. First, in order to perform a functional test on the UUT, a first vacuum stage is engaged, and atmospheric pressure translates the UUT longitudinally until contact is made with a first hard stop, defining a first position. At this first position, the UUT is in contact with a series of tall probes, and is spaced apart from a series of short probes. After a function test is performed, a second vacuum stage is engaged in addition to, and independent of, the first vacuum stage. Atmospheric pressure translates the UUT longitudinally until contact is made with a second hard stop, defining a second position. | 09-25-2008 |
