| 20120070545 | OXYGEN SCAVENGING DENDRIMERS - A method and system for oxygen molecule scavenging is disclosed. The system employs as an amphiphilic dendritic polymer as the reducing agent for oxygen molecules in a thermoplastic compound. Clarity of the compound, nearly the same as thermoplastic matrix itself in the compound, is achieved by the addition of an epoxy-functional styrene-acrylate oligomer. Food and beverage containers now made of polyethylene terephthalate can be molded from the compound and have substantially the same haze as the polyethylene terephthalate itself but with the oxygen scavenger to maintain freshness of the food or beverage from oxidation. | 03-22-2012 |

| 20090121794 | Phase lock control system for a voltage controlled oscillator - A phase lock control system is presented for controlling a voltage controlled oscillator. The system includes a voltage controlled oscillator that produces a frequency signal exhibiting an output frequency that varies dependent upon the value of a control voltage applied thereto. A frequency deviation determining system employs a counter intermittently triggered ON for a fixed time by successive timing pulses received from a reference source and a comparator that determines any frequency deviation of the output frequency relative to a preset frequency. An error filter monitors the comparator for any frequency deviation for a plurality of samples of the frequency deviation determinations. A controller varies the control voltage to vary the output frequency in a direction to eliminate any frequency deviation. | 05-14-2009 |
