20080243353ENGINE POWER STORAGE DEVICE AND METHOD - A power storage device is provided for a motor vehicle. An engine control unit (ECU) is configured to receive measurements of one or more engine and/or vehicle conditions and to determine an amount of unused engine power based upon the measurements and upon a nominal power rating of the engine when the engine is operated below the nominal power rating. The value of the amount of unused engine power is stored in memory as stored power.10-02-2008

20100045690DIGITAL DISPLAY - A display system that achieves a gamma characteristic different than 1, such as a gamma characteristic of 2 for example. The gamma characteristic may be selectable and it may be selectable via timing characteristics rather than by varying the intensity of the light source. Defective memory registers are also compensated for by selecting them to store bits of relatively lower significance.02-25-2010
20100245212MICRODISPLAY AND INTERFACE ON A SINGLE CHIP - A microdisplay having interface circuitry on the same silicon backplane to allow it to receive digital images and video in a variety of formats and convert same to field sequential color signals for generation of full color images. It includes column data processors having a comparator for each block of N-columns of pixels. Image data is double-buffered in SRAM memory cells located beneath the pixel electrodes, but not within each pixel. The stored data is logically associated with each pixel via the column data processors. Image compression is accomplished by converting RGB data to a variant of YUV data and sampling the color components of the converted data less frequently than the luminance components. The SRAM image buffer consumes a reduced amount of power. A temperature compensation scheme allows the temperature of the microdisplay to be sensed and the drive voltage to the pixel electrodes to be varied in response thereto.09-30-2010

20090069842Surgical instrument - A medical instrument having a proximal control handle and a distal tool that are intercoupled by an elongated instrument shaft that is meant to pass internally of an anatomic body, proximal and distal movable members that respectively intercouple the proximal control handle and the distal tool with the instrument shaft, cable control means disposed between the movable members, an actuation member at the handle for controlling the distal tool through the movable members, and a coupler for selectively engaging or disengaging separable cable segments of the actuation member.03-12-2009
20090171147Surgical instrument - A medical instrument having a proximal control handle and a distal tool that are intercoupled by an elongated instrument shaft that is meant to pass internally of an anatomic body, proximal and distal movable members that respectively intercouple the proximal control handle and the distal tool with the instrument shaft, cable control means disposed between the movable members, an actuation member at the handle for controlling the distal tool through the movable members, and a coupler for selectively engaging or disengaging the shaft portion of the instrument from the handle portion. The handle has a distal receiver portion, and a shaft connector on said proximal motion member is selectively engageable with and releaseable from the receiver portion.07-02-2009

20090143036LINEAR VOLTAGE CONTROLLED VARIABLE ATTENUATOR WITH LINEAR DB/V GAIN SLOPE - A variable attenuator and method of attenuating a signal is presented. The variable attenuator contains an input that receives an input signal to be attenuated. A voltage divider between a resistor and parallel MOSFETs provides the attenuated input signal. The MOSFETs have different sizes and have gates that are connected to a control signal through different resistances such that the larger the MOSFET, the larger the resistance. The control signal is dependent on the output of the attenuator. The arrangement extends the linearity of the attenuation over a wide voltage range of the control signal and decreases the intermodulation distortion of the attenuator.06-04-2009

20100288207Daisy-Chain Pet Leash - A multiple-handle pet leash for pet control and of a non-retractable, flat-material type. The body of the leash consists of a single length of strap material, which is folded over at the middle to capture a spring-clip device. The body of the leash is joined together at increments along the length of the strap material to form a series of apertures or loops. In addition, the handle of the leash shall be of a design which can be unfastened at one end, rendering a single open strap, and refastened using hook-and-loop material to reform the leash handle or to form a larger tie-out loop when fastened through one of the leash body apertures.11-18-2010

20100092562SUSTAINED-RELEASE DRUG DELIVERY COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS - The present invention relates to liquid sustained release suspension dosage forms. In particular, the invention encompasses sustained release compositions comprising a dispersed phase, which contains an ion-exchange matrix drug complex, a diffusion controlling membrane coating and a dispersion medium comprising an excipient capable of impeding water activity such that drug dissolution is inhibited prior to administration. Further, the invention provides for compositions wherein several active ingredients associate in a single bead in the dispersed phase, such that the abuse potential of such active ingredients is reduced. The invention also encompasses sustained release formulations of combination drugs comprising an extended release phase and an immediate release phase. The formulations of the invention may be used to treat a variety of conditions and symptoms, including those that require administration of several drugs, such as cold and allergy symptoms. In one of the embodiments, the sustained release composition combines an antihistamine, an antitussive and a decongestant. The invention further provides for methods of making and using such formulations.04-15-2010

20090275252CLEANING MEDIUM FOR REMOVING CONTAMINATION AND METHOD OF MAKING - A cleaning medium that includes polyisobutylene (also sometimes referred to as polybutylene or as polybutene). Cleaning media include cleaning implements, polishers, and filters. Typically a substantial portion of the polyisobutylene has a molecular weight (MW) greater than 30,000 and in some particular applications the molecular weight is around 85,000. The polyisobutylene is generally adjacent to the surface of a substrate, such as a non-woven or woven fabric. A method of making a cleaning medium is provided. The method typically involves dissolving polyisobutylene in a solvent such as hexane to form a tackifier solution, soaking the substrate in the tackifier to produce a preform, and then drying the preform to produce the cleaning medium. The cleaning media are typically used dry, without any liquid cleaning agent. In embodiments where the cleaning medium is as cleaning implement or a polisher, the surface to be cleaned is wiped with a surface of the cleaning medium adjacent to which the polyisobutylene is disposed. Vigorous wiping may be used in applications where contamination is difficult to remove. In embodiments where the cleaning medium is a filter, a fluid is passed through the cleaning medium and the cleaning medium traps particles and aerosols entrained in the fluid.11-05-2009
