| 20090321550 | Reel Lock for Passenger Restraint Having Dual Locking Positions - Disclosed is an improved reel assembly for use in conjunction with an occupant restraint system. The assembly employs a dual locking arrangement whereby an occupant can be restrained during both major and minor incidents. After a major incident, the reel assembly remains locked until the occupant disengages the reel via a push button. After a minor incident, the reel assembly can be conveniently unlocked, without the need for accessing the push button, by applying counter tension to the webbing. | 12-31-2009 |

| 20090183905 | Circuit board configuration - A circuit board configuration and method of packaging electronic component embedded into the circuit board in a manner that supports the electronic component thermally, electrically, and mechanically thereof, comprising a circuit board having a first surface and a circuit trace on the first surface; a recess or slot formed on the first surface defined by at least one sidewall that is oblique to the first surface of the circuit board; two or more plated surfaces on the at least one oblique sidewall and electrically connected to the circuit trace; and an electronic component having two or more electrical contact surfaces mounted to the two or more plated surfaces such that the electronic component is physically mounted to the oblique sidewall and in electrical communication with the circuit trace. The circuit board configuration may further comprise an encapsulant at least one end of the electronic component and a conductive material between the oblique sidewall and the electronic component to seal the electronic component inside the slot. | 07-23-2009 |

| 20090284089 | COMPACT, ELECTROMAGNETICALLY BRAKED ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY - An actuator assembly includes a motor assembly, a harmonic drive gearbox, an actuator, and an electromagnet brake device. The actuator assembly is fairly compact in size and the electromagnetic brake device is a non-contact type of devices, making it less prone to wear as compared to many other brake devices. | 11-19-2009 |

| 20090211383 | EMERGENCY STOPS AND BRAKE DEVICES FOR MOTORS - An emergency stop for a brake device for a motor includes a blocking device, a spring, and an inhibiting material. The blocking device is movable between a first position, at which it allows rotation of the drive shaft, and a second position, at which it at least substantially stops rotation of a drive shaft of the motor. The spring is housed at least partially within the housing, and urges the blocking device toward the first position. The inhibiting material at least partially surrounds the blocking device and/or the spring, and has a melting point that is at least substantially known. The inhibiting material at least substantially prevents movement of the blocking device from the first to the second position when a temperature is below the melting point, and allows movement of the blocking device from the first to the second position when the temperature is above the melting point. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20100025610 | LOW PROFILE VALVE ACTUATOR HAVING HIGH TORQUE OUTPUT - A valve actuator is provided for use in conjunction with a drive motor and a valve. In one embodiment, the valve actuator includes a housing assembly, a first power screw rotatably mounted in the housing assembly and configured to be rotated by the drive motor, a first rack translatably mounted in the housing assembly, and a pinion rotatably mounted in the housing assembly and mechanically linked to the valve. The first rack is threadably coupled to the first power screw and is configured to move linearly as the first power screw rotates. The pinion engages the first rack and is configured to rotate as the first rack moves linearly to move the valve to a desired position. | 02-04-2010 |

| 20100050796 | HIGH LOAD LIFT AND SHOCK LINEAR ACTUATOR - A high load and shock linear actuator is provided that may be used to position a hatch on a waterborne platform. The actuator includes a power-screw actuator, a manual operator, a bidirectional brake, an actuator motor, and a motor brake. The power-screw actuator is coupled to receive a drive torque from either the actuator motor or the manual operator, and is responsive to this drive torque to position the hatch. The bidirectional brake transfers manual input torque supplied to its input by the manual operator, and prevents torque supplied to its output from being transferred to its input. The actuator motor includes a stator, a rotor, a ring gear, and a differential carrier assembly. The differential carrier assembly is disposed within the rotor inner volume. The motor brake is mounted adjacent the actuator motor and selectively prevents and allows actuator motor rotation. | 03-04-2010 |

| 20090010814 | EFFLUENT GAS STREAM TREATMENT SYSTEM HAVING UTILITY FOR OXIDATION TREATMENT OF SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING EFFLUENT GASES - An effluent gas stream treatment system for treatment of gaseous effluents such as waste gases from semiconductor manufacturing operations. The effluent gas stream treatment system comprises a pre-oxidation treatment unit, which may for example comprise a scrubber, an oxidation unit such an electrothermal oxidizer, and a post-oxidation treatment unit, such as a wet or dry scrubber. The effluent gas stream treatment system of the invention may utilize an integrated oxidizer, quench and wet scrubber assembly, for abatement of hazardous or otherwise undesired components from the effluent gas stream. Gas or liquid shrouding of gas streams in the treatment system may be provided by high efficiency inlet structures. | 01-08-2009 |

| 20080230714 | APPARATUS AND METHODS OF FORMING A GAS CLUSTER ION BEAM USING A LOW-PRESSURE SOURCE - Embodiments of a gas cluster ion beam apparatus and methods for forming a gas cluster ion beam using a low-pressure process source are generally described herein. In one embodiment, the low-pressure process source is mixed with a high-pressure diluent source in a static pump to form a mixed source, from which a gas cluster jet is generated and ionized to form the gas cluster ion beam. Other embodiments may be described and claimed. | 09-25-2008 |
