20110263181Weight Receptacle System for Gravity-Driven Race Car - A model race car includes a body formed from a material such as wood. A number of axles are secured to a bottom portion of the body and configured to rotatably support a number of corresponding wheels. A weight receptacle system configured for selective attachment to the body of the model race car includes at least one receptacle defining at least one compartment configured to receive at least one weight. The receptacle further includes a cover receivable over the at least one compartment to secure the weight within the compartment. The receptacle system is configured to selectively adjust a weight of the model race car so as to conform to a desired weight. Moreover, the receptacle system is configured to enable to position the weight so that a center of mass is positioned rearward with respect to a front of the model race car while maintaining the stability thereof.10-27-2011

20090023051PLATINUM, TUNGSTEN AND NICKEL CONTAINING ELECTROCATALYSTS - The present teachings are directed toward electrocatalyst compositions of alloys of platinum, tungsten and nickel for use in fuel cells. The alloys consists essentially of platinum present in an atomic percentage ranging between about 20 percent and about 45 percent, tungsten present in an atomic percentage ranging between about 30 percent and about 70 percent, and nickel present in an atomic percentage ranging between about 5 percent and about 25 percent.01-22-2009
20090092879Fuel Cells with Sputter Deposited Pt and Pt Alloy Electrodes - The present application is directed to a fabrication method to reduce Pt loading in fuel cells through the use of thin film electrodes by increasing Pt utilization and the use of more active Pt alloys that can be easily and inexpensively fabricated by sputter deposition. Pt and Pt alloy thin films were sputter deposited onto carbon/NafionĀ® decals and subsequently hot pressed with the catalyst thin film towards the membrane. The results show improved mass performance and catalyst utilization with Pt thin films and increased mass activities can be achieved with PtCo (76:24 atomic ratio) and PtCr (80:20 atomic ratio) as compared to pure Pt. Mass activity improvements of 14 mV and 8 mV were observed for the PtCo and PtCr alloys with respect to a pure Pt film with similar mass loading under 300/350 kPa hydrogen/oxygen operation.04-09-2009

20090152962MOTOR FOR HIGH MOISTURE APPLICATIONS - A motor that includes a motor frame, an end-bell assembly, a stator assembly, and filling material is described. The stator assembly is placed within the frame such that at least one open area is defined between an inner diameter of the stator assembly and an inner diameter of the motor frame. The at least one end-bell assembly is attached to the motor frame, forming an inside area adjacent the motor frame and the stator assembly. The motor also includes a material configured to fill the at least one open area and the inside area of the at least one end-bell assembly for the purpose of sealing the stator assembly and the inside area associated with the at least one end-bell assembly. The material assists in a bonding and attachment between any two or more of the stator assembly, the motor frame, and the at least one end-bell assembly.06-18-2009

20090099420SYSTEM FOR MANAGING BOWDEN CABLES IN ARTICULATING INSTRUMENTS - The present invention relates, generally, to the reduction or elimination of permanent and catastrophic herniations in Bowden cables or coil pipes in articulating devices or snake-like robots. More particularly, the present invention relates managing the coil pipes in a spiral pattern along the articulating device or snake-like robot to reduce or eliminate the necessity of the Bowden cables or coil pipes to slide along the length of the articulating device or snake-like robot. Reduction or elimination of the necessity for the Bowden cables or coil pipes to slide reduces or eliminates catastrophic herniations in articulating devices or snake-like robots undergoing one or more articulations.04-16-2009
20090204183MEDICAL CARRIERS COMPRISING A LOW-IMPEDANCE CONDUCTOR, AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING THE SAME - Medical carriers that include a low-impedance conductor are provided. The low-impedance conductors are configured to provide electrical conductivity along a length of the medical carrier. An aspect of the low-impedance conductors is the presence of a longitudinally extended region configured as a non-coiled repetitive pattern that imparts fatigue resistance to the longitudinally extended region. Also provided are systems and methods of making the medical carriers, as well as methods of using the medical carriers.08-13-2009
20100312188Body-Associated Receiver and Method - Receivers, which may be external or implantable, are provided. Aspects of receivers of the invention include the presence of one or more of: a high power-low power module; an intermediary module; a power supply module configured to activate and deactivate one or more power supplies to a high power processing block; a serial peripheral interface bus connecting master and slave blocks; and a multi-purpose connector. Receivers of the invention may be configured to receive a conductively transmitted signal. Also provided are systems that include the receivers, as well as methods of using the same. Additionally systems and methods are disclosed for using a receiver for coordinating with dosage delivery systems.12-09-2010
20110054381BILIARY SHUNTS, DELIVERY SYSTEMS, AND METHODS OF USING THE SAME - The application discloses devices, delivery tools, systems, and methods for treating biliary disease. Device comprise, for example, a component configured for deployment between a gallbladder and location within a gastrointestinal tract of a patient which has a proximal end and a distal end with a lumen extending therethrough. A method of deploying the device can be achieved by, for example, creating a duct or fistula between a gallbladder lumen and a portion of a gastrointestinal tract; and providing for drainage from the gallbladder to the gastrointestinal tract.03-03-2011
