Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100059421FLOATING DISPENSER FOR DISPENSING A SOLID DISSOLVABLE CHEMICAL INTO AMBIENT WATER - A floating dispenser is provided for dispensing a solid, dissolvable water treatment chemical into ambient water. The dispenser includes a bucket having top and bottom ends, a top wall covering the top end, an opening for admitting ambient water into the bucket interior, and a floatation ring that keeps only the top end above water such that the interior is water filled when the dispenser floats. A basket is disposed in the interior of the bucket for carrying a solid, dissolvable water treatment chemical, such as calcium hypochlorite. The basket is buoyant and movable vertically toward the top wall of the bucket. The dispenser includes a refill indicator that indicates when most of a full load of said chemical has dissolved. The refill indicator includes a pair of tabs that are connected to the basket and slidably mounted in slots in the top wall. The tabs extend above the top wall when the buoyant basket floats upwardly, providing a visual indication of the need for a refill that can easily be seen from a side angle.03-11-2010

20120084192System and Method for Coordinated Sales and Implementation of Financial Products - Systems and methods for the coordinated sales and implementation of financial products are disclosed. In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, an apparatus may include a network interface and a processor coupled to the network interface. The network interface may be configured to receive a request for a client's purchase of a financial product, the request including client information. The processor may be configured to execute logic to (i) generate implementation documents based at least on the client information, the implementation documents comprising documents to be completed as a prerequisite to issuance of the financial product; (ii) schedule a follow-up meeting relating to purchase of the financial product based at least on the client information; and (iii) contemporaneously electronically display implementation documents to a client and an implementation advisor to facilitate the implementation advisor's assistance to the client in completing the implementation documents.04-05-2012

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090208307Releasable Fastener Systems and Methods - In some embodiments, a fastening system includes two opposing plates, and a retainer material that is activated to increase the flexibility of the retainer material. The retainer material surrounds at least a portion of two opposing plates, the plates and the retainer material mounted to allow the plates to move apart and back together when the retainer material is flexible. A pin is insertable through an opening between the plates. The pin includes a first tapered portion configured to separate the plates as the pin is inserted in the opening via a pushing force. The retainer material becomes rigid when deactivated to lock the pin between the plates.08-20-2009

20090080290Method and apparatus for correcting the timing function in a nodal seismic data acquisition unit - A wireless seismic data acquisition unit with a wireless receiver providing access to a common remote time reference shared by a plurality of wireless seismic data acquisition units in a seismic system. The receiver is capable of replicating local version of remote time epoch to which a seismic sensor analog-to-digital converter is synchronized. The receiver is capable of replicating local version of remote common time reference for the purpose of time stamping local node events. The receiver is capable of being placed in a low power, non-operational state over periods of time during which the seismic data acquisition unit continues to record seismic data, thus conserving unit battery power. The system implements a method to correct the local time clock based on intermittent access to the common remote time reference. The method corrects the local time clock via a voltage controlled oscillator to account for environmentally induced timing errors. The invention further provides for a more stable method of correcting drift in the local time clock.03-26-2009
20090290453Land based unit for seismic data acquisition - A self-contained, wireless seismic data acquisition unit having a cylindrically shaped case with smooth side walls along the length of the case. A retaining ring around the circumference is used to secure the cylindrical upper portion of the case to the cylindrical lower portion of the case. Interleaved fingers on the upper portion of the case and the lower portion of the case prevent the upper portion and the lower portion from rotating relative to one another. Ruggedized external electrical contacts are physically decoupled from rigid attachment to the internal electrical components of the unit utilizing electrical pins that “float” relative to the external case and the internal circuit board on which the pins are carried. The seismic sensors in the unit, such as geophones, and the antennae for the unit are located along the major axis of the cylindrically shaped case to improve fidelity and timing functions.11-26-2009
