| 20110153104 | APPLIANCE WITH ENERGY CONSUMPTION REPORTING AND METHOD - A system is provided for determining and displaying the cost of consuming power comprising an appliance including one or more power consuming functions wherein each of the one or more power consuming functions includes an associated power consumption amount. The system compensates for line voltage variations by sensing line voltage and adjusting the power consumption amount. The system further provides a home energy management system (HEM) including a controller in communication with the appliance and configured to provide the HEM with the associated power consumption amount of each of the one or more power consuming functions. The controller being configured to convert the current cost of supplied energy into a power consumption cost of the associated power consumption amount of the one or more power consuming functions. | 06-23-2011 |

| 20080286590 | Ceramic and Metallic Components and Methods for Their Production from Flexible Gelled Materials - According to one embodiment of the present invention there is provided a method of producing a sheet of flexible gelled ceramic and/or metallic containing material, comprising the steps of: (a) combining water, ceramic and/or metallic powder, polymer, plasticiser, water soluble cross-linking agent precursor and optional further components to produce a mixture; (b) applying the mixture to a suitable substrate to form a layer of desired dimensions; (c) exposing the layer to conditions suitable for cross-linking to occur. According to another embodiment of the present invention there is provided a method of producing a ceramic and/or metallic component comprising the steps of: (a) combining water, ceramic and/or metallic powder, polymer, plasticiser, water soluble cross-linking agent precursor and optional further components to produce a mixture; (b) applying the mixture to a suitable substrate to form a layer of desired dimensions; (c) exposing the layer to conditions suitable for cross-linking to occur; (d) optionally removing from the substrate a flexible gelled material obtained following step (c); (e) optionally drying the flexible gelled material; (f) processing the flexible gelled material to desired shape; (g) firing flexible gelled material of desired shape to produce a ceramic and/or metallic component. Preferably the ceramic and/or metallic component is a component of a fuel cell, photo-voltaic cell, multi-layered capacitor or other micro-electronic component, prosthetic or surgical devices, refractory equipment, fibre optic device or transmission equipment. | 11-20-2008 |
