20090095125ARMATURE TYPE ELECTRICAL GENERATORS FOR SELF POWERED CELL PHONES - Self powered cell phones are operated with a rotatable crank shaft, the rotary motion of which is translated by cam or slotted slider crank-driven gear trains into pivoting motions of an internal armature, in reciprocal alternating opposite directions, whereby one or more conductive wire coils, supported by the armature, are caused to intersect the magnetic flux of one or more permanent magnets disposed within the cell phones, thereby generating electrical voltage and current for operating, charging or recharging the cell phone batteries. Recharging mechanisms are provided which can be manually or flywheel operated to impart the pivotal motions of the armature and supply the current generated therein directly to the cell phone batteries.04-16-2009
20090140529ENHANCED INTERNAL ELECTRICAL GENERATORS - Enhanced internal electrical generators are provided which include pole pieces that form air gaps flanked with conductive wire coils. Rotatable armatures supporting permanent magnets are arranged to swing or revolve relative to the air gaps such that the magnetic flux thereof is intersected by the wire coils to generate electrical voltage and current therein. These generators may be incorporated within the housing of many portable devices such as cell phones to self generate electrical current useful for operating the device or recharging its batteries or other component that stores the generated electrical energy.06-04-2009
20100026478TURN SIGNALS GENERATED DURING OPERATION OF VEHICLE HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS - Vehicle 4-way emergency flasher circuits are modified by circuit branches which enable flashing selected pairs of emergency lamps at a higher frequency or in other discernible different ways. These selected lamps become visible and recognizable as right or left turn signals while the 4-way flasher circuit is operating.02-04-2010
20100195978System to facilitate replay of multiple recordings of a live event - A system is disclosed for the replay of multiple simultaneously recorded recordings of live events. Flags are used to map the time of occurrence of incidents observed on one video recording onto second simultaneously obtained recording where they can be observed. The proper phasing of mapped incidents and incidents that are explicitly visible on the second recording is maintained.08-05-2010
20100225465RETROFIT CIRCUITRY FOR ENHANCED VEHICLE HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS - A third light is added above the lower two rear turn signal lights of an automotive vehicle Detection hardware is included which senses when both lower lights begin flashing simultaneously due to activation of the vehicle's 4-way hazard warning system. Such detection also introduces current pulses to the third light which flashes simultaneously with the lower two lights to generate a triangular configuration of the three flashing lights. Retrofit circuitry is described to enable installing the modified triangular signal into existing vehicles.09-09-2010
20100228466INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS AND METH0DS - An internal combustion engine in which intake and exhaust valve timing is varied to improve cold-start performance and emissions and to increase cylinder-out temperatures under certain operating conditions. Valve timing is controlled to modify in-cylinder conditions to enhance certain physical and chemical processes. Valve timing is preferably determined based on measurement and calculation of engine operating parameters.09-09-2010
20110135984Safety device for electric and hybrid electric vehicle energy storage systems - Danger of electrocution and fire from high voltage systems in electric and hybrid electric vehicles is mitigated by isolating high voltage electric power sources, of vehicles involved in accidents, in a sealed enclosure.06-09-2011
20110226767Refuse container - An improved apparatus and method is disclosed to deter animals from foraging for food in refuse containers.09-22-2011
