20110280700 | TRANSFER DEVICE - A transfer device to assist a user in moving between vertically displaced locations has a storage enclosure mounted or mountable to the exterior of a motor vehicle. The storage enclosure protects components from external conditions, weather, etc., and typically is made of steel, plastic, etc. A user platform is supported on a drawer assembly that can be completely encased in the storage enclosure. Movement of the drawer assembly is controlled by a drawer extension mechanism that selectively extends and retracts the drawer assembly into and out of the storage enclosure between a stored position completely inside the storage enclosure and an operative position outside the storage enclosure. When the drawer assembly is in an operative position outside the storage enclosure, a platform elevating mechanism can raise and lower the user platform between a lower, compacted storage position and an elevated position using a scissors linkage that links the user platform to a drawer assembly support such as a tray. The elevating mechanism can be an actuator having a cylinder pivotably mounted to the tray and a slidable rod pivotably mounted to the scissors linkage in a manner that permits raising the seat as the rod is extended outwardly from the actuator cylinder. A control system monitors the position of the drawer assembly and the vertical position of the user platform and can prevent undesired operation such as when a motor vehicle engine is still running or a motor vehicle door is closed. | 11-17-2011 |

A compressed gas dispensing system has a pump that pumps hydraulic oil into the compressed gas cylinders to maintain a desired pressure while gas is dispensed. Gas is dispensed from the first cylinder while hydraulic fluid is pumped into the cylinder to maintain the desired pressure. Once the first cylinder is depleted, the hydraulic oil is discharged from the first cylinder. The process is repeated for the second cylinder. However, the hydraulic oil must be discharged from the second cylinder before the substantial depletion of the gas. To safely discharge the hydraulic oil, compressed gas from the second cylinder is distributed into the first cylinder. Once the second cylinder has reached a safe discharge pressure or volume, the hydraulic fluid is discharged. | 12-23-2010 |

20110068947 | MOBILE METER READING FOR LOCATING STOLEN UTILITY METERS - A method, collection device, and automatic meter reading (AMR) system for locating stolen utility meters use a set of identifiers, such as transponder serial numbers, to build a route of utility meters that have been reported as having been stolen. When each mobile collection device's daily routes are prepared, the route of stolen utility meters is added to the other routes for which the mobile collection device is ordinarily tasked with collecting meter read data. As the mobile collection device traverses its daily routes, it collects meter read data for the stolen utility meters along with the meter read data for its other routes. The route of stolen utility meters is unloaded from the mobile collection device along with the other daily routes when the read process is finished. The route of stolen utility meters may contain information that may assist the utility company in locating the stolen utility meters. | 03-24-2011 |
