20100169296 | Systems and Methods for Maintaining Records - Systems and methods are disclosed which relate to collecting, cataloguing, reproducing, and destroying records. Medical, legal, and other records from hospitals, medical offices, law offices, etc. are sent to a storage facility. Entry fields, such as name, record number, date of service, and date of birth, from each record are entered into a database. The database catalogues each record as well as the box the record is in and where the box is located. The system allows professionals to search the database over a secure connection. Multiple search fields allow a professional to search the database using any of a plurality of criterion. Search logic enables a cross-field search for a specific query. When professionals request a record, the record is pulled at the storage facility and physically or electronically sent to the professional. The system also keeps track of records eligible for destruction as well as those destroyed. Files eligible for destruction are destroyed after the requisite permission is given. | 07-01-2010 |
20100169348 | Systems and Methods for Handling Multiple Records - Devices and methods are disclosed which relate to identifying ‘duplicate’ records in a database by finding similarities between records and applying a set of heuristic rules to determine a likelihood of being a duplicate record. The weighted results of the application of the heuristic rules identify possible duplicate records in the database. Embodiments of the present invention search records comprising fields of personal information. Matches are found between records and weighted according to the degree of similarity and uniqueness. By taking account of the different modes by which duplication errors typically originate in the database to which the method is applied, these heuristic rules identify a higher percentage of actual duplicate records in the database. The heuristic rules also produce a lower rate of ‘false positives’ than the methods for identifying duplicate records in databases now known in the art. | 07-01-2010 |
20130238646 | Partial-Match Searches of Encrypted Data Sets - Devices, systems, and methods are disclosed which relate to utilizing hash tables of chunks of index data created using a one-way hashing encryption algorithm. Hash tables of chunks of the index data are then stored within the database system, each hash stored along with a reference to a corresponding encrypted record. When searching the index, the input text is broken into chunks and hashed with the same one-way encryption algorithm as the index data, and the resulting chunk hash tables are searched for within the index. | 09-12-2013 |

20080223332 | Advanced internal combustion engine - An internal combustion engine power cycle wherein a combustion chamber is fitted with an inlet valve, an outlet valve, and movable piston coupled to perform work, includes an generator to form a stream of greater than about 95% molecular oxygen from atmospheric air and a nitrogen waste gas stream; a source of fuel; and a source of liquid water. The power cycle includes admission of the molecular oxygen into the chamber, injection of the fuel into the chamber with combustion, and injection of atomized water into the chamber for generation of steam. | 09-18-2008 |
20120067258 | MANIFOLD ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY - A manifold actuator assembly is provided with a manifold comprising a block, and a hydraulic actuator connected to a solenoid valve within the block. The solenoid valve controls hydraulic, linear movement of a rod of the hydraulic actuator. The manifold actuator assembly may be used in a metering system to open and close movable gates disposed downstream from a meter roller before product enters a distribution system. The manifold actuator assembly may also be used as a locking apparatus to lock and unlock members in a wide variety of applications. | 03-22-2012 |

20140060035 | IMPLEMENT WITH REDUCED HYDRAULIC OIL EXCHANGE - A folding implement frame having seven sections in a use position and nine sections when folded. The frame design allows a frame having a width of greater than 27 meters to be folded into a transport position having a width of less than eight meters and a height of less than six meters. The hydraulic system transfers weight to the center frame section during folding and unfolding to enhance stability. The hydraulic system uses accumulators to minimize the amount of oil reduction in the tractor reservoir resulting from extension of the hydraulic cylinders of the implement. Implement raise and lower cycle times are minimized by a helper cylinder to lift the frame main section when the entire implement weight is on the main section and allowing a smaller cylinder to lift the frame main section in the use position for shorter cycle times to raise and lower the implement. | 03-06-2014 |
