| 20090253536 | Height Adjustable Golf Tee - A height adjustable golf tee includes an elongated shank having a ball supporting top end, a tapered bottom end and tab structure projecting outwardly from the shank and arranged in a vertically spaced relationship between the top end and the bottom end of the shank. An adjustable stop member is mounted for separate vertical and rotational movement on the shank from an unlocked position to a locked position. The adjustable stop member is formed with an internal cavity having a surface for rotationally receiving the tab structure and providing an interference member frictionally engageable with the tab structure to effect the locking position. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20100173730 | ADJUSTABLE GOLF TEE - An adjustable golf tee includes an elongated shank having a ball supporting top end, a tapered bottom end and a plurality of tab members projecting outwardly from the shank and arranged in a vertically spaced relationship along the shank. The ball supporting top end may include a plurality of prongs to reduce the contact area between the tee and a ball. An adjustable stop is mounted for separate vertical movement on the shank and rotational movement between an unlocked position and a locked position. The adjustable stop has an internal cavity with a slide channel for receiving tabs. A lip-shaped protrusion is frictionally engageable with at least one of the tabs to effect the locking position. The stop may include a stake for connecting the stop with the ground such that the stop may be used as a ball marker. | 07-08-2010 |

| 20110232843 | SUBSTRATE PROCESSING APPARATUS WITH COMPOSITE SEAL - A seal for sealing an interface between a container and a lid of a process chamber. The seal comprises a first seal element and a second seal element that are arranged to seal the interface in series, with the second seal element being situated to encounter processing activity upstream of the fist seal element. The first seal element has a deflectable portion and a protrusion extending radially from the deflectable portion. The second seal element has a radially extending recess in which the protrusion of the first seal element is received. The protrusion and recess interlock to restrict separation and/or rotation of the first and second seal elements. Inclined surfaces of the first seal element interact with the second seal element to apply axial sealing forces to sealing surfaces of the second seal member. | 09-29-2011 |

| 20100116130 | METHOD OF MAKING A HIGH-PERFORMANCE SUPPORTED GAS SEPARATION MOLECULAR SIEVE MEMBRANE USING A SHORTENED CRYSTALLIZATION TIME - A method of making a supported gas separation molecular sieve membrane. In this method a porous support, which is preferably pretreated, is contacted with a molecular sieve synthesis mixture under hydrothermal synthesis conditions. The contacting step is conducted for a shortened crystallization time period. The resulting coated porous support is calcined to yield the supported gas separation molecular sieve membrane having particularly good gas separation characteristics. | 05-13-2010 |

| 20090094210 | INTELLIGENTLY SORTED SEARCH RESULTS - Intelligently sorting search results includes retrieving search results according to a search. A criterion to apply to the search results to organize the search results into clusters that present content of the search results is determined. The criterion is applied to the search results, and the search results are presented in clusters. Each cluster represents a category of the criterion applied to the search results. | 04-09-2009 |

| 20110225950 | Control strategy for heated fluid lines - A control strategy selectively controls the heating of fluid lines equipped with line heaters that may be utilized with a selective catalytic reduction system. The control strategy measures a tank temperature representative of reductant agent in a storage tank and a representative ambient temperature representative of an ambient temperature proximate the fluid line. The control strategy determines a lowest possible reductant agent temperature (“LPRAT”) based on the measured tank temperature and representative ambient temperature. The LPRAT is compared with a desired reductant agent temperature and, in response to the comparison, the control strategy may activate the line heater. | 09-22-2011 |

| 20090277923 | DISPENSER FOR FLATTENED ARTICLES - A substantially moisture-proof, airtight dispenser for both storing and dispensing several flattened articles such as diagnostic test strips. The inventive dispenser includes a novel pivotable housing that a user need merely grab and squeeze to eject a test strip. Independent movement of the user's fingers to push a button or turn a knob is unnecessary to dispense a strip, which makes the present invention well suited for diabetics suffering from nerve damage in their extremities and other complications resulting from the disease. The invention includes a novel flexible arm member and pusher head that engage and push an article from the dispenser as the two parts of the housing are pivoted together. The articles are dispensed through an exit that is configured with a novel flexible seal that maintains the dispenser substantially airtight. Several inventive seal embodiments and methods of making the same are disclosed. | 11-12-2009 |
