20120211222DEVICE FOR APPLYING AN EXPANDABLE SKIRT HAVING APPLICATION DIAMETER CONTROL UPON ADVANCE - The present invention relates to a device for laying an expansible lining in a conduit. The device may include a patch having an initial diameter less than that of the conduit, and the patch may be configured to deform by radial expansion beyond an elastic limit to an expanded diameter such that it may contact a wall of the conduit. The device may also include an expander tool axially displaceable inside the patch, and the expander tool may be configured to cause the radial expansion of the patch to an expanded diameter. The device may also include a checking member mounted in proximity to the expander tool. A section of the checking member may be calibrated so that the checking member and the expander tool are capable of passing freely inside the patch when the patch is properly expanded, and the checking member and the expander tool are unable to pass inside the patch when the patch is improperly expanded.08-23-2012

Michael J. Leighton, Lasalle CA

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090322136VEHICLE SEAT TRACK - A track assembly for a vehicle seat includes a first track member and a reinforcing member. The first track member has a first portion defining a first set of apertures configured to receive a locking device. The reinforcing member, which may be in the form of a plate, is coupled to the first portion and defines a second set of apertures corresponding to the first set of apertures. The second set of apertures are also configured to receive the locking device. The reinforcing member is configured to reinforce the first track member in an area around and between the first set of apertures.12-31-2009
20110309665RECLINER PAWL MEMBER - A recliner mechanism comprising a base plate having a plurality of contoured extension members and a central aperture; a pivot member coupled to the central aperture of the base plate; a cam member pivotably coupled to the pivot member; a first and second disc member positioned within the base plate and supported by the contoured extension members; a tooth plate having central aperture for coupling to the pivot member and an annular ring including a plurality of teeth; a first and second pawl member positioned within the base plate and supported by the contoured extension members, the first and second pawl members having a plurality of teeth for engagement with the teeth of the tooth plate and contoured sides for engagement with the base plate, cam member, first and second disc member, and the contoured extension members.12-22-2011

Murray Edward Bruce Leighton, Whitley Bay GB

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090097782Method for producing perforated zipper for transverse direction zipper applicator - The zippers include flanges with fully or partially formed apertures or notches to allow drive rolls to positively engage and feed the zippers. Alternatively, a T-shaped guide rail can be formed on at least one flange to allow drive rolls to engage the zipper. These aspects are particularly adaptable to feeding a zipper or zipper segment to a transverse direction zipper applicator.04-16-2009

20100249671System And Method For Assessing Lithotripsy - An apparatus, method and system for classifying a shockwave is described, particularly for use in an Extracorporeal Shockwave Lithotripsy (SWL) system. The method for classifying a shockwave generated and directed towards a stone in an extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy treatment comprises receiving an acoustic signal at a passive unfocused acoustic sensor, determining whether at least one characteristic of the received acoustic emissions exceeds a respective pre-determined threshold value, and classifying the shockwave as effective or ineffective in dependence upon said determination. A method for predicting the outcome of an SWL treatment is also described.09-30-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090200255Clothes Line Assemblies - A clothes line assembly including: a support; a line carrier which is adapted to have attached thereto a plurality of lines to which clothing or other articles can be secured, the line carrier being operatively mounted to the support for movement between an in-use position in which it extends laterally from the support and a non-use position; the support including a support frame which is mountable to a wall or similar structure, the line carrier being pivotally mounted to the support frame for pivotal movement between the in-use and non-use positions; and a cover arranged so that when the line carrier is in the non-use position the cover and line carrier can adopt a stowed position in which the cover can conceal the line carrier from view, and in which the cover substantially abuts the lines and/or the line carrier, wherein the cover includes a panel operatively connected to the line carrier so that in an operative position with the line carrier in the in-use position the cover is disposed above and in spaced relation from the lines on the line carrier.08-13-2009
