| 20100193385 | Process for manufacturing kitting foam inserts - This invention protects the processes and technologies used to produce kitting foam inserts. The manufactured inserts are in the form of foam silhouettes with a thin hard plastic backing. The process is unique in that it utilizes software and automations that were previously unknown in the kitting industry. The hard plastic backed foam inserts will retain the positions of items within the kit and allow, at a glance, identification of missing or displaced items and tools. The foam inserts also provide for rapid restocking of reusable assembly kits. Pocket marks can incorporate human and/or machine-readable symbols into the foam inserts. This patent is unique with respects to the referenced US patent U.S. Pat. No. 7,410,053 B2 in that this invention describes in detail the manufacturing process for producing foam kitting inserts to be used for organizing tool and assembly kits. Key differences in this invention and the cited patent are the fact that the product of the current invention contains no clear layers, both the pocket and the items are marked, the item description is marked inside of the pocket perimeter, and the thickness of the layers specified in the cited patent is in direct contrast to the layer thickness specified herein, specifically the top layer is always several times thicker than the bottom layer herein. | 08-05-2010 |

| 20110232065 | METHOD FOR MAKING CATALYTIC CONVERTERS WITH AUTOMATED SUBSTRATE CRACK DETECTION - A method for making catalytic converters with automated crack detection includes forming a rigid housing, providing a substrate shaped for reception in the housing, and forming a mat shaped to cover the exterior surface of the substrate and having a thickness which creates a tight friction fit between the substrate and the housing when the same are assembled. The mat is wrapped around the substrate, and the wrapped substrate is then stuffed into the housing using a reciprocating ram or the like that extends at a relatively constant speed. The stuffing force and the ram position are measured and recorded regularly to define an array of data. The data is analyzed for any abrupt changes in the stuffing force as a function of the ram position indicating a crack in the assembled substrate. | 09-29-2011 |

| 20090314018 | COMPRESSOR POWER CONTROL - Cooling is provided to the power electronics of a compressor speed control system by way of refrigerant that is routed from a refrigeration system, through the power electronics, and then back to the refrigeration system. The amount of refrigerant flowing to the power electronics is automatically regulated to that needed to cool the electronics since both are substantially proportional to compressor speed. The housing for the power electronics is mounted directly to the side of the compressor, and the compressor is resiliently mounted to a support to thereby provide shock protection to the power electronics. | 12-24-2009 |
| 20100064703 | STANDBY VARIABLE FREQUENCY COMPRESSOR DRIVE - A transport refrigeration system is provided with a variable speed compressor which is operated only in the low capacity perishable range of operation. In this way, the line voltage and frequency power can be used during high capacity operation and a relatively small inverter can be used to provide variable voltage and frequency for the variable speed operation. The variable voltage and frequency can also be provided to a variable speed condenser motor to provide additional condensing capacity during economized operation. It can also be used to provide DC voltage to the compressor for heating purposes. | 03-18-2010 |

| 20090078861 | Ion Mobility Spectrometry Method and Apparatus - The invention includes an ion mobility spectrometer having a liquid filled drift chamber. The chamber has an ionization region partitioned from and an ion separation region by a reversible ion-migration block. An electrical field within the chamber allows ions to migrate toward the electrode collector. Passage of ions from the ionization region is triggered by reversing the block allowing ions to migrate into the ion separation region. The invention includes a method of ion mobility analysis in liquid phase. Ions are mobilized to migrate through a drift liquid and are detected at an end of a drift chamber. The invention also includes a method of generating ions in a sample. A sample containing molecules in a first solvent is introduced into a second solvent through a charged capillary where the electrically charged sample is electro-disperses to ionize the molecules. | 03-26-2009 |
