20090205339AIR-COOLED SWIRLERHEAD - A combustor for a gas turbine engine is disclosed which is able to operate with high combustion efficiency, and low nitrous oxide emissions during gas turbine operations. The combustor consists of a can-type configuration which combusts fuel premixed with air and delivers the hot gases to a turbine. Fuel is premixed with air through a swirler and is delivered to the combustor with a high degree of swirl motion about a central axis. This swirling mixture of reactants is conveyed downstream through a flow path that expands; the mixture reacts, and establishes an upstream central recirculation flow along the central axis. A cooling assembly is located on the swirler co-linear with the central axis in which cooler air is conveyed into the prechamber between the recirculation flow and the swirler surface.08-20-2009

20100163645POPPET CHECK VALVE FOR AIR-ASSISTED SPRAY GUN - An air-assisted sprayer comprises a platform, a fluid cup, an air reservoir, a spray cap, a pressure line, a fluid reservoir and a poppet valve. The fluid cup is connected to the platform to hold a volume of fluid. The air reservoir extends through the platform and is configured to receive pressurized air. The spray cap is connected to the platform to receive pressurized air from the air reservoir. The pressure line connects the air reservoir with the fluid cup to pressurize the volume of fluid. The fluid reservoir extends from the fluid cup to the platform to provide pressurized fluid to the spray cap. The poppet valve is in fluid communication with the pressure line between the volume of fluid and the air reservoir to prevent fluid from entering the air reservoir.07-01-2010

20110048554SPRAYER PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE - The pressure relief valve of the instant invention allows automatic operation when over pressurization occurs and also allows the user to operate manually when required. Passages within the valve are minimized in length and an expanding cross-section outlet geometry is used to ensure that operation of valve is not hindered by dried material after initial use. A shield is also incorporated to ensure safe discharge in case of over pressurization.03-03-2011
20110061593DUAL MODE PUMP CONTROL - A fluid pump control that allows for both flow control and pressure control to allow greater flexibility in applying architectural coatings.03-17-2011

20090095274PAINTBALL PROJECTILE DROP COMPENSATOR - A barrel attachment for a paintball gun is provided to impart spin onto a paintball exiting the barrel of the paintball gun thereby providing projectile drop compensation. The attachment is made up of a structure having an elongated aperture with a first end that attaches over the barrel of a paintball gun thereby extending the barrel. A second end of the attachment has an open passage that is disposed at an angle to the centerline of the barrel so that a spin is imparted onto a paintball fired from the gun as it passes through the open passage.04-16-2009

20080197616Debris deflection device for skates - Described is a device that can be attached to an in-line skate that will deflect debris such as small rocks and sticks from the immediate path of the in-line skate. The device will detect when the rear wheels leave the skating surface and will reposition so as to not interfere with the operation of the skate when the skate tips forward.08-21-2008
