20110197706DEVICE TO GUARD AN END OF A ROTATING SHAFT OR BEARING - The present disclosure describes a device for guarding an end of a rotating shaft or bearing. The device is designed to protect against worker injury from an exposed rotating shaft or bearing. The device is also designed to mount around the rotating shaft or bearing in a manner that uses existing equipment mounting points. Hence, the device minimizes the cost associated with retroactively guarding a rotating shaft or bearing for a piece of existing equipment.08-18-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090232120SORTING FREQUENCY ARRAYS TO ACCOUNT FOR MULTI-PROTOCOL FREQUENCIES - A system comprises transceiver logic that receives signals on each of an array of frequencies. The transceiver logic is adapted to communicate using a first communication protocol. Processing logic couples to the transceiver logic. The processing logic identifies from among the array of frequencies a subset of shared frequencies that carry data transmitted using a second communication protocol. The processing logic adjusts frequency selection parameters in accordance with the identification. The processing logic uses the adjusted frequency selection parameters to select a target frequency from the array of frequencies to carry data.09-17-2009
