| 20100051586 | Orbital welding system and methods of operations - An orbital welding system and methods of operation controllably and safely weld a first metal tubing to a second metal tubing. A weld head includes interlocking clamping jaws for clamping the tubing. An alignment mechanism aligns the second tubing with the first tubing. The interlocking clamping jaws clamp the second tubing following the aligning of the second tubing with the first tubing. An alignment measurement mechanism measures relative alignment between the first tubing and the second tubing. A weld environment mechanism establishes a gaseous environment for orbitally welding the first tubing to the second tubing. The weld environment mechanism includes a weld environment sealing mechanism for sealing the gaseous environment and an electrode for gas arc welding. The weld environment mechanism orbits the first tubing and second tubing during the orbitally welding. Interface circuitry interfaces a power supply with the weld head and controls parameters associated with said weld head. | 03-04-2010 |

| 20100276204 | VIBRATING TOOL - A vibrating tool comprising a hammer and valve that oscillate axially inside a housing to produce vibrations solely in response to fluid flow through the tool at an operating flow rate. The valve is supported by a spring that resists compression until a minimum operating flow rate is achieved, and hammer is also spring-loaded. When the valve strokes down and engages the hammer, flow through the hammer is restricted. Increased fluid pressure pushes the hammer down away from the valve, resulting in a sudden decrease in pressure, allowing both the hammer and valve to rebound and create vibrational impacts. The cycle repeats continuously as long as an adequate flow rate is maintained. | 11-04-2010 |

| 20090096558 | ELECTRICAL SWITCHING DEVICE - An electrical switching device facilitates selectively controlling residential power. The switching device is configured to couple between a residential electrical-energy meter and a residence. The device includes a solenoid assembly, a yoke, and at least two conductor busbars. The solenoid assembly includes an electrically-activated solenoid that is coupled to an actuator assembly. The actuator assembly includes a biasing mechanism and a plunger. The yoke is coupled to the actuator plunger such that the plunger is substantially centered relative to the yoke. The biasing mechanism is coupled to the yoke to bias the yoke away from the solenoid. The yoke includes at least two shorting bars that are oriented in a mirrored-arrangement on opposite sides of the actuator plunger. The solenoid assembly selectively moves the yoke between a first position in which the shorting bars are spaced a distance away from the conductor busbars, and a second position in which each of the shorting bars are electrically coupled against the conductor busbars. Each of the at least two conductor busbars has a substantially rectangular-shaped cross-sectional profile. | 04-16-2009 |

| 20100184353 | Start gate for gravity-driven cars - An improved start gate for gravity-driven cars which is itself a gravity-driven compound pendulum. The pendulum includes a horizontal drop member rigidly connected at one end to a start post support rod which in turn supports a plurality of start posts. A trigger lever, when moved either directly or remotely, allows the drop member to fall as in a compound pendulum thereby rotating the start posts and allowing the cars to start. The embodiment teaches that the subsequent initial start post acceleration is approximately twice the car acceleration. The equations of motion are solved showing that the start posts are guaranteed not to interfere with car motion. A major advantage over prior art spring-loaded start gates is that the gate “slap” from stopping overly-forceful spring motion and the associated track jarring and car jostling is eliminated, thereby contributing substantially to a more smooth and fair start. | 07-22-2010 |
| 20100311306 | Start switch for gravity-driven cars - This invention relates to gravity-driven car racing, specifically an improved electrical timing start switch for race tracks such as used in the popular Pinewood Derby race. The present invention eliminates the imprecise coupling between the mechanical release of start posts and the subsequent generation of an electrical timer start signal by a separate micro switch-based contact. The micro switch is eliminated and the start post trigger release mechanism itself is insulated and wired as a normally closed contact that will essentially immediately start the race timer when activated. The difference in the time the start posts begin to move and the time the trigger “switch” activates the timer is then reduced to an extremely short and precise time. This time is that for mechanical movement propagation from the trigger release point to the start posts, only about 20 millionths of a second for a one lane track. | 12-09-2010 |

| 20120002588 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING MOBILITY MANAGEMENT AND OUT-OF-COVERAGE INDICATION IN A CONVENTIONAL LAND MOBILE RADIO SYSTEM - The present disclosure provides a system and a method for providing mobility management and out-of-coverage indication in a conventional Land Mobile Radio (LMR) system. A radio provides its location and user group data to the disclosed system through its traffic channel when the channel is idle. Knowledge of the radio's current location and user group data is used to provide dynamic call routing and data management within the disclosed system. The disclosed system and method may provide operability similar to that of a trunking system by providing mobility management and out-of-coverage indication while providing low-cost benefits through operation of a conventional system. | 01-05-2012 |

An antimicrobial coating can be provided, which can include a plurality of discrete first particles that can have an average diameter of less than approximately 400 nanometers and, in a preferred embodiment, 10 nanometers or less. The plurality of discrete first particles can include pure silver metal. In an embodiment, the plurality of discrete first particles can also include a physiologically inert stabilizer. The antimicrobial coating can also include a polymeric film, in which the plurality of discrete first particles can be directly embedded therein. | 02-17-2011 |

| 20100015278 | ACIDULATE COMPOSITION AND METHODS FOR MAKING AND UTILIZING THE SAME - A baking additive for enhancing the shelf-life and maintaining the volume of a baked product, and methods for producing and using the same. The baking additive comprises a blend of an non-encapsulated acidulate and an acidulate having a fat-based encapsulating coating that is degradable by heat. The combination of the encapsulated and non-encapsulated provides strategic release of the acidulates throughout the baking process such when the baking additive is added to a dry dough mix, the acidulates can sufficiently decrease the pH of the dry dough mix to prevent microbial contamination without interfering with glutton elasticity or the chemical leavening system. | 01-21-2010 |
