20080255758SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR GENERATING REFERENCE GEOCODES FOR POINT ADDRESSES - Systems and methods are provided for generating a reference location data set, such as a reference longitude and latitude point, for each of a plurality of point addresses. A reference location data set can be determined for a point address based on a history of prior geocode samples, such as GPS readings, that have been obtained using a portable computing device during a prior delivery to or pickup from the point address. A location data service collects such geocode samples and processes the samples to generate a reference location data set, such as a reference longitude and latitude and a zone of confidence around the reference longitude and latitude, for each unique point address. To determine whether an item is being delivered to a wrong address, current location data obtained during a delivery can be compared against the reference location data generated by the location data service for the delivery address.10-16-2008

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090101439Transfer platform - A transfer platform for safely transferring a lineman from a helicopter to a utility pole includes a cylindrical hollow member dimensioned to closely fit over the top of the pole, the member having an open lower end and a top cap closing the upper end thereof, the top cap abutting the top of the pole when the member is positioned on the pole, a step extending sidewardly from the member, the step being substantially parallel to and lower than the top cap and an equipment support assembly extending sidewardly from the member. An aperture is formed in the member beneath the underside of the step and an adjustable shim assembly extends through the aperture into the hollow of the member.04-23-2009
20090158571Method of replacing insulators on a tower and insulator support and transport assembly therefor - A method of replacing an electrical insulator on a conductor-supporting tower includes the steps of providing an elongate beam spanning the tower between a work site and a helicopter accessible site, a trolley movable on the beam between the sites and an insulator cradle detachably supported by the trolley for supporting the insulator during transport between the sites and to and from the tower via helicopter. The cradle is a partially peripherally enclosed, open-topped structure having a floor, an upstanding rear wall, peripheral walls sloping downwardly from the rear wall to a front wall, an opening in the front wall, an elongate slot in the floor extending rearwardly from the opening, the slot having a width greater than the diameter of an insulator shank but less than the diameter of an insulator skirt, the dimensions of the floor allowing an insulator skirt to lie flat thereon.06-25-2009

20080280510ELECTRICAL CONTACT - An electrical contact includes a mating portion and a crimp portion connected by a transition region. The mating portion is configured to receive a mating external contact pin. The mating portion has a top wall and a bottom wall joined by opposing side walls. The top, bottom and side walls form a contact box open at one end. The contact box includes a contact beam that extends through the contact box, a front flap portion and a front aperture for insertion of the mating contact, and a back aperture adjacent to the transition region. The front flap portion protrudes partially into the front aperture forward of the contact beam to prevent a free end of the contact beam from receiving a direct impingement force when mating the electrical contact with the second electrical contact.11-13-2008
