Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110214975ELECTRICAL SWITCHING APPARATUS AND STATUS INDICATING ASSEMBLY THEREFOR - A status indicating assembly is provided for an electrical switching apparatus, such as a circuit breaker. The circuit breaker includes a housing, separable contacts enclosed by the housing, and an operating mechanism for opening and closing the separable contacts. The operating mechanism comprises a stored energy mechanism and a primary latch. The primary latch is pivotable between a latched position corresponding to the stored energy mechanism being chargeable, and an unlatched position corresponding to the stored energy mechanism being discharged. The status indicating assembly includes a first indicator for indicating whether the separable contacts are open or closed, a second indicator for indicating whether the stored energy mechanism is charged or discharged, and a third indicator for indicating whether or not the circuit breaker is ready to close the separable contacts.09-08-2011
20120103775ELECTRICAL SWITCHING APPARATUS AND CHARGING ASSEMBLY THEREFOR - A charging assembly for an electrical switching apparatus includes a cam shaft and including a number of cams. A latch lobe and a charging handle are coupled to opposing ends of the cam shaft. Each stroke of the charging handle pivots the cams a predetermined amount. A rocker arm includes a first portion cooperating with the cams, a second portion translating movement of the cams into movement of a stored energy mechanism, and a third portion cooperating with a close D-shaft having a close latch. A close prop includes a first end cooperating with the close D-shaft, and a second end including a roller that cooperates with the latch lobe. The close D-shaft pivots between latched and unlatched positions. The third portion cooperates with the close D-shaft to hold the close latch in the unlatched position until the charging handle has been pivoted a predetermined number of strokes.05-03-2012

20090094095RECOMMENDATIONS BASED ON AN ADOPTION CURVE - Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, for recommendations based on adoption curve. A method includes tracking over a period of time user popularity of a media content using a web service residing in a server, the popularity and period of time representing a life cycle of each of the media content. The method tracks over the period of time users enrolled in the web service and when in the period of time each of the users adopted the tracked media content and associates adopted media content with user profiles representing the users. The method recommends media content associated with a first user who adopted the tracked media content earlier in the period of time to a second user who may want to adopt the tracked media content subsequently in the period of time.04-09-2009

20090266931ROLLING DOOR ASSEMBLY AND RELATED METHODS - A rolling door assembly includes an axle assembly having an axle extending through a tube to which the door curtain is attached. A plurality of drums extends between the tube and the axle. The cost and weight of the axle assembly can be significantly reduced forming the drums from stamped sheet metal, as well as using relatively thin roll-formed and butt-welded sheet metal to the form the tube. An axle assembly can also include a spiral wound tube that can be readily unwound and replaced with minimal disassembly of the rest of the door assembly.10-29-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120111152ANTI-SCALE COMPOSITION AND METHOD OF USE FOR LEACH FIELDS - Disclosed is a method for treating heap leach stacks by applying an insoluble polyimide composition, such as polysuccinimide, to the surface of an ore stack and/or incorporating the insoluble polyimide composition throughout the ore stack. The insoluble polyimide composition is then exposed to an aqueous solution to initiate hydrolysis and produce one or more water soluble products, such as hydrolyzed polyimides, polycarboxylates, polycarboxylic acids and mixtures thereof that will permeate the ore stack at a concentration sufficient to suppress scale formation within the leach stack. The water soluble products may also act to suppress scale formation in piping and channels peripheral to the leach stack, thereby reducing maintenance expenses.05-10-2012

20080290723SELF-STEERING AXLE SUSPENSION SYSTEM HAVING A ROTARY STABILIZER - A self-steering axle suspension system utilizing a rotary damper coaxially aligned with and acting directly about the king pin centerline on one side of the vehicle is disclosed. When used as such, the rotary damper constitutes a rotary stabilizer. The rotary stabilizer is used to control the steerability of the self-steering axle suspension system and has a self-centering axle mechanism incorporated therein.11-27-2008
20090179396SELF-STEERING AXLE SUSPENSION SYSTEM HAVING A ROTARY STABILIZER MOUNTED AT A PIVOT JOINT ASSOCIATED WITH A TIE ROD - A self-steering axle suspension system utilizing a rotary damper coaxially aligned with and acting directly about the king pin centerline on one side of the vehicle is disclosed. Alternatively, the rotary damper may be mounted at, and axially aligned with, a pivot joint joining a steering knuckle with the tie rod. When used as such, the rotary damper constitutes a rotary stabilizer. The rotary stabilizer is used to control the steerability of the self-steering axle suspension system and has a self-centering axle mechanism incorporated therein.07-16-2009
20110079459RESILIENT TIE RODS AND AXLE ASSEMBLIES EMPLOYING SAME - A tie rod for a vehicle axle assembly is constructed using substantially compliant, flexible, and/or resilient material. Such a resilient tie rod may be provided with a rectangular or otherwise non-circular cross-section. Such a resilient tie rod may be used in combination with an axle assembly of the type having an axle and a steering knuckle rotatably associated with each end of the axle. The tie rod may be rotatably or non-rotatably secured to the steering knuckles.04-07-2011
