| 20090038443 | Tool for removing shingles from a skip sheet roof - A tool for removing shingles from a roof having skip sheeting comprises a lifting blade connected to a first end of a shaft, a handle attached to a second end of the shaft, and a fulcrum bar attached at a preferred vertical distance from a bottom surface of the lifting blade to a side of the shaft. A length of the fulcrum bar is selected to enable the fulcrum bar to rest on a top surface of two or more adjacent sheeting boards in a roof having skip sheeting. A position of the fulcrum bar on the shaft enables placement of the lifting blade between adjacent sheeting boards and below a back surface of a shingle. | 02-12-2009 |

| 20100117333 | ADJUSTABLE HITCH FOR TOWING - An adjustable ball-type hitch assembly, and a method for using it. The hitch assembly is connected to a hitch receiver of a towing vehicle on one end, and to a vehicle to be towed having a ball receiver, on the other end. In a preferred embodiment, the adjustable hitch assembly may include a base attachable to the receiver, and a sliding element such as a tongue supporting the ball and pivotally attached to the base. The sliding element may include a slot or groove enabling the sliding element to move along its longitudinal axis relative to the base, and to also rotate about a vertical axis perpendicular to a horizontal plane containing at least a portion of the sliding element, enabling the ball to be moved in various directions in a substantially horizontal plane to facilitate connection of the ball to the towed vehicle. Preferably the hitch includes means for locking and unlocking angular and linear movement of the sliding element and ball, such as a cam lock, which is preferably and easily manipulable by one hand. | 05-13-2010 |

| 20100294822 | BELT ATTACHMENT DEVICE - Presented is a belt attachment on which may be mounted accessories that would normally be mounted in the waist belt. These can include hand cuffs, hand tools, radio, handgun holster, taser, meters, flashlights, and other items. The belt attachment has a passage for the waist belt, and a passage for attachment of the accessories, with the two passages perpendicular to each other. The belt attachment aids in minimizing wear of a user's shirt by moving belt mounted accessories away from the user's belt. | 11-25-2010 |

| 20100198275 | FORCE SENSING DISTAL FEMORAL ALIGNMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE - Devices, systems, and methods are provided for facilitating the aligning and balancing of the knee during total knee replacement surgery. A femoral assembly is engaged with a distal femur. The positions of medial and lateral portions of the femoral assembly relative to a stationary portion of the femoral assembly can be separately adjusted to adjust the alignment of the knee. A force sensor will be provided to sense the forces in the medial and lateral portions of the knee, and the medial and lateral portions of the femoral assemblies will be adjusted so that the sensed forces are balanced. The alignment of the knee is visually verified using a knee alignment verification member coupled to the femoral assembly. The knee alignment verification member may emit laser beams along the mechanical axes of the femur and tibia, or the knee alignment verification member may couple to alignment rods aligned along these axes. | 08-05-2010 |

| 20110080840 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING NETWORK CONDITIONS - A system and a method determine network conditions. The system includes a server computer and a client computer. The server computer is configured to transmit data packets comprising a data object from the server computer to the client computer. The client computer includes a transmission latency detector and a transmission bandwidth detector. The transmission latency detector uses transmission time and receipt time values to determine the changes in time it takes selected portions of the data object to be transmitted from the server computer to the client computer. The transmission bandwidth detector uses identified back-to-back data packets to determine the transmission bandwidth between the server computer and the client computer. | 04-07-2011 |

| 20090102019 | CONTROLLED DOPING OF SEMICONDUCTOR NANOWIRES - A catalyst particle on a substrate is exposed to reactants containing a semiconductor material in a reactor. An intrinsic semiconductor nanowire having constant lateral dimensions is grown at a low enough temperature so that pyrolysis of the reactant is suppressed on the sidewalls of the intrinsic semiconductor nanowire. Once the intrinsic semiconductor nanowire grows to a desired length, the temperature of the reactor is raised to enable pyrolysis on the sidewalls of the semiconductor nanowire, and thereafter dopants are supplied into the reactor with the reactant. A composite semiconductor nanowire having an intrinsic inner semiconductor nanowire and a doped semiconductor shell is formed. The catalyst particle is removed, followed by an anneal that distributes the dopants uniformly within the volume of the composite semiconductor nanowire, forming a semiconductor nanowire having constant lateral dimensions and a substantially uniform doping. | 04-23-2009 |
| 20090107964 | DEBRIS MINIMIZATION AND IMPROVED SPATIAL RESOLUTION IN PULSED LASER ABLATION OF MATERIALS - A method of minimizing the deposition of debris onto a sample being ablated. The method comprises: 1) reducing a laser pulse energy to approximately a threshold level for ablation; 2) focusing the energy using an immersion object lens having a final element and 3) ablating a region of the sample using a multitude of laser pulses, each pulse being sufficiently separated in time to reduce a concentration of ablation products in a gas phase. | 04-30-2009 |

| 20100006550 | METHOD FOR MINIMIZING SAMPLE DAMAGE DURING THE ABLATION OF MATERIAL USING A FOCUSED ULTRASHORT PULSED LASER BEAM WHEREIN THE SLOPE OF FLUENCE BREAKDOWN IS A FUNCTION OF THE PULSE WIDTH - In one aspect the invention provides a method for laser induced breakdown of a material with a pulsed laser beam where the material is characterized by a relationship of fluence breakdown threshold (Fth) versus laser beam pulse width (T) that exhibits an abrupt, rapid, and distinct change or at least a clearly detectable and distinct change in slope at a predetermined laser pulse width value. The method comprises generating a beam of laser pulses in which each pulse has a pulse width equal to or less than the predetermined laser pulse width value. The beam is focused above the surface of a material where laser induced breakdown is desired. The region of least confusion (minimum beam waist or average spot size) is above the surface of the material in which laser induced breakdown is desired since the intensity of the beam falls off in the forward direction, preferably the region of the beam at or within the surface is between the region of least confusion and sufficient to remove material and the minimum intensity necessary for laser induced breakdown of the material to be removed, most preferably the region of minimum intensity is disposed at the surface of the material to be removed. The beam may be used in combination with a mask in the beam path. The beam or mask may be moved in the x, y, and Z directions to produce desired features. The technique can produce features smaller than the spot size and Rayleigh range due to enhanced damage threshold accuracy in the short pulse regime. | 01-14-2010 |

| 20100313544 | PROPULSION SYSTEM WITH CANTED MULTINOZZLE GRID - A propulsion system includes a canted multinozzle plate, which has a multitude of small nozzles angled (not perpendicular) to major surfaces of the multinozzle grid plate. The multinozzle plate may be a cylindrical section or plate, and the multitude of nozzles may be substantially axisymmetric about the cylindrical plate. The propulsion system includes a pressurized gas source which may be placed either forward or aft of the multinozzle grid plate. The propulsion system may have a conical insert, an internal flow separator cone, to aid in changing directions of flow from the pressurized gas source, to divert the flow through the multiple nozzles. | 12-16-2010 |
