| 20090113971 | RING MILL APPARATUS AND METHOD - A ring mill apparatus and method utilizes at least one hydraulic or other direct drive motor to drive a roller in contact with a ring that is to be expanded by the ring mill. The motor may be two opposed radial piston hydraulic motors, to drive an upper king roller, which contacts the outside of the ring, which is inserted between the upper king roller and a lower mandrel roller, which contacts the inside of the ring. The lower mandrel roller is urged upwards against the ring by a ram driven carriage. Two hydraulic or other direct drive motors can be provided in-line with, and directly connected to, the king roller. | 05-07-2009 |

| 20100190582 | GOLF BALL WITH COVER HAVING A PEARLESCENT EFFECT - A golf ball having a cover having a pearlescent effect is disclosed. The cover comprises a first thermoplastic and a second thermoplastic having an index of refraction that differs from an index of refraction of the first thermoplastic by at least about 0.5 percent. The cover further comprises a compatibilizer. | 07-29-2010 |

| 20090021293 | Low-Power Integrated-Circuit Signal Processor With Wide Dynamic Range - An integrated circuit includes at least three separate power supply terminals, at least one for those portions of the circuit that must accommodate the widest signal-related voltage excursion, at least one for those that experience substantially smaller signal-related voltage excursions, and a common terminal. | 01-22-2009 |
| 20110068833 | Dynamic Switch Driver for Low-Distortion Programmable-Gain Amplifier - A switching circuit for switching a time-varying input signal, the switching circuit comprising: at least one switch including a N-channel MOSFET and a P-channel MOSFET, each having a gate configured to receive a drive signal to change the ON/OFF state of the switch; and a drive circuit configured and arranged so as to selectively apply a pair of drive signals to change the ON/OFF state of the switch, the drive circuit being configured and arranged to generate the drive signals as a function of (a) a pair DC signal components sufficient to change the ON/OFF state of the switch and (b) a pair of time-varying signal components as at least a partial replica of the signal present on the source terminal of each MOSFET so that when applied with the DC signals to the gates of the n-channel MOSFET and p-channel MOSFET respectively, the drive signals will be at the appropriate level to maintain the ON/OFF state of the switch and keep the gate-source voltages of each MOSFET within the gate-source breakdown limit of the MOSFETs. | 03-24-2011 |
| 20110068863 | Area Efficient, Programmable-Gain Amplifier - A reconfigurable network arrangement of resistors and switches is constructed so that it can be coupled to one or more operational amplifiers and selectively programmed so as to set the gain of the resulting amplifier. The configuration of the network arrangement of resistors and switches to include resistors that can be connected in the feedback path in series and in parallel with each other is such as to provide a wider selection of gain settings, without the need to increase the physical area of the switches on a integrated circuit arrangement. | 03-24-2011 |

| 20100158924 | Expression of the cysteine protease legumain in vascular and inflammatory diseases - The present invention provides isolated and purified polynucleotides, polypeptides, and antibodies related to mammalian (e.g., mouse and human) legumain and the novel legumain splice variant, ZB-1. The invention further relates to the use of these isolated and purified polynucleotides, polypeptides, and antibodies, as well as other legumain and ZB-1 agonists and antagonists, in modulating legumain and/or ZB-1 activity, expression, and/or secretion in a cell or cell population, e.g., monocytes, macrophages, foam cells, vascular endothelial cells, kidney proximal tubule cells, arterial endothelial cells, sites of inflammatory cell invasion into a vessel intima, and neointimal lesional areas of an artery. The invention also provides legumain and ZB-1 antagonists, e.g., antagonistic small molecules, antibodies and antibody fragments to legumain and ZB-1, legumain and ZB-1 inhibitory polypeptides, and legumain and ZB-1 inhibitory polynucleotides. The present invention is also directed to novel methods for diagnosing, prognosing, monitoring, treating, ameliorating and/or preventing vascular disorders/diseases and inflammatory disorders/diseases. | 06-24-2010 |

| 20080245981 | Apparatus and method for edge detection - An edge detection system that locates the edge of a printing plate on a platesetter includes: first scratches aligned in a first direction on a support surface; a groove machined into the support surface where the groove includes two surfaces. One surface is reflective and has second scratches aligned in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction of the first scratches. The system also includes: an edge detection light source to provide a beam for scanning along a length of the support surface on a path coincident with the groove; a sensor to sense a reflected edge detection beam from the support surface; and a controller to analyze the reflected beam, where the beam reflected from the first scratches is 90 degrees out of phase with the beam reflected from the second scratches and where the beam reflected from the first scratches is high in intensity relative to the beam reflected from the second scratches. | 10-09-2008 |

| 20090315801 | PORTAL STRUCTURE PROVIDING ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE SHIELDING FEATURES - In one aspect, an antenna pedestal includes a body having an inner cavity. The antenna pedestal includes a portal structure to access the inner cavity of the antenna pedestal. The portal structure also includes a threaded structure disposed around a portal accessing the inner cavity and comprising threads and a cover comprising threads configured to engage the threads of the threaded structure to close the portal. | 12-24-2009 |
| 20090315805 | ROTARY CONNECTOR PROVIDING ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE SHIELDING FEATURES - In one aspect, a rotary connector having a longitudinal axis includes a first metal portion including a groove about the longitudinal axis. The rotary connector also includes a second metal portion and a spring disposed in the groove and having metal contact with the first portion and the second portion. One of the first metal portion or the second metal portion is configured to rotate about the longitudinal axis and the other of the first metal portion or the second metal portion is configured to remain substantially rotationally fixed with respect to the longitudinal axis. The rotary connector may be used for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding with antenna pedestals. | 12-24-2009 |
