20100320759 | Method and apparatus for ocean energy conversion, storage and transportation to shore-based distribution centers - A fleet of vessels attached together longitudinally (rows), and transversely (columns) and operating in unison convert wave energy to electrical energy which is stored in either a chemical or electrical form. The vessels when detached from the fleet provide transportation to coastal or by navigable waterway ports of call for distribution to market centers. Both wind wave and swell wave energy conversion is performed by use of the differential motion between the vessels. Means are provided for the energy conversion systems to adapt to changes in wave direction, wave length, amplitude, and phase. Such vessels are self powered for off shore or inland waterway navigation, either singularly or in multiples, with which to deliver energy to other sea going vessels or to land based ports of call. Two or more of such vessels are capable of using the energy of waves during the delivery process. The fleet can maintain a designated geographical location by dynamic positioning. Alternatively, the fleet may maintain its designated position by moorage of a designated centrally located vessel in the fleet to a permanent anchoring system when operating at appropriate depths. | 12-23-2010 |

20100059273 | ELECTROOPTICAL DISPLAY WITH ELECTRICAL CROSSOVER - Electrooptical displays require conductors on both sides of the liquid crystal thin film. The two conductors face opposite sides of the display. The cost of electrically connecting to these displays can be decreased by having the conductors of the display all face the same side of the display. This invention includes a technique to allow both conductors to face the same side of the display. | 03-11-2010 |
20130342432 | Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Writing Tablet Erased By A Piezoelectric Transducer - A display device includes a cholesteric liquid crystal writing tablet and a piezoelectric transducer. The piezoelectric transducer is subjected to a mechanical force that generates a voltage that is applied to the writing tablet that erases writing on the writing tablet. A further feature is a display device comprising a cholesteric liquid crystal display and a piezoelectric transducer. The piezoelectric transducer is subjected to a mechanical force that generates a voltage that is applied to the display that places the display in at least one of a color reflective planar state, a substantially transparent focal conic state and a gray scale state. Also featured is a method of erasing a cholesteric liquid crystal writing tablet. | 12-26-2013 |

20160123004 | Self-Aligning Interlocking Construction Blocks - A self-aligning block system is disclosed having a series of block formations wherein the blocks comprise predefined polygonal shaped channels for insertion of a uniformly shaped polygonal peg. Insertion of a peg between adjacent channels will drive uneven blocks into alignment and hold the blocks without the need of mortar. Walls may be created by end-to-end stacking of linear blocks and half blocks in staggered or parallel columns to create internal walls and corners within a wall by addition of corner blocks and half blocks without offsetting the progression of the outer wall. Addition of half blocks into wall progression may be implemented to reset the progression of inner and outer walls after corner formation. | 05-05-2016 |
