20090218007 | Manual Hair Dye Apparatus and Method for Using the Same - In one embodiment of the present system invention, the operator enters the customer name into the color management system and the computer screen displays the customer's history. If this is a new customer, a history file is created. The operator selects desired color from the color pallet, enters the required amount of finished dye and finally the activator strength is selected. The operator is instructed to place an empty batch container on the scale. The system prompts the operator for the first dye color, and an LED adjacent to the corresponding drawer is illuminated. The operator manually adds the amount indicated on the display panel, while the scale monitors exactly how much has been added and provides feedback to the operator leading to an extremely accurate dispense. After returning the bottle or tube to the designated storage bin, the operator presses “next”, and the next LED is illuminated along with the required amount of the next ingredient. Bar code readers can also be used to control the ingredient solution and control process. The system automatically adds the required activators from the internal storage reservoirs. A batch record is placed in the customers history file. | 09-03-2009 |

The self-organizing material may be, for example, a layer of directed self-assembly material that segregates into two alternating phases in response to heat or other stimulus, wherein one of the phases then can be selectively etched with respect to the other phase to provide the desired pattern. In another example case, the self-organizing material is a layer of material that coalesces into isolated islands when heated. As will be appreciated in light of this disclosure, the disclosed techniques can be used, for example, to increase capacitance per unit area, which can be scaled by etching deeper capacitor trenches/holes. | 06-04-2015 |

20120042769 | Self-Engaging Non-Reciprocating Charging Handle - A non-reciprocating, self-engaging charging handle is disclosed. It comprises a spring biased forward latch mounted upon a sliding body with a protruding handle. The spring bias causes the latch to positively engage the firearm's bolt carrier group when the handle is brought forward into contact therewith. A secondary latching system secures the charging handle to the upper receiver when not in use and disengages automatically when and only when a user desires to operate the handle. | 02-23-2012 |

20100299959 | REEL BASED CLOSURE SYSTEM - Disclosed is a closure system used in combination in any of a variety of applications including clothing, for example as a footwear lacing system comprising a lace attached to a tightening mechanism. The lace extends through a series of guide members positioned along two opposing footwear closure portions. The lace and guides preferably have low friction surfaces to facilitate sliding of the lace along the guide members so that the lace evenly distributes tension across the footwear member. The tightening mechanism allows incremental adjustment of the tension of the lace. The closure system allows a user to quickly loosen the lace and inhibits unintentional and/or accidental loosing of the lace. | 12-02-2010 |

20130240316 | Rotational Coupling Device With Improved Actuator Assembly - A rotational coupling device is provided having an improved actuator for compressing friction discs coupled to an input ring and an output hub disposed about a rotational axis. The actuator includes a pole structure and a field shell housing a conductor, each with aligned, axially extending, radially spaced inner and outer poles. An armature is coupled for rotation with the input ring, but axially movable relative thereto and axially aligned with an end wall of the pole structure extending between the inner and outer actuator poles. First and second axially spaced actuator discs are disposed radially between the pole structure and the output hub with the first actuator disc rotatably coupled to the pole structure. The discs define cam surfaces along which a plurality of balls move to expand and contract the actuator discs upon relative rotation of the actuator discs. | 09-19-2013 |

20090133974 | DUAL ACTUATOR FRICTION BRAKE ASSEMBLY - An industrial brake is provided through which tension and emergency braking are initiated at opposite axial ends of the brake in order to improve packaging and maintenance of the brake and to enable the addition of an emergency brake function to existing tension brakes without substantial modifications to the brake. The brake includes a housing disposed about a driven shaft and friction plates coupled to the housing and the shaft respectively. One friction plate comprises a liquid cooled fluid jacket. One end cap assembly is disposed at one axial end of the housing and provides a tension brake function. Another end cap assembly is disposed at the opposite axial end of the housing and provides an emergency brake function. | 05-28-2009 |
20140318904 | Liquid Cooled Brake With Support Columns - A liquid cooled brake is provided having an improved housing that provides strong yet lightweight structural support. The brake includes end plates disposed about a driven shaft and axially spaced from one another. A plurality of axially extending pins connect the end plates. A friction plate is coupled to the driven shaft for rotation therewith and is axially movable relative to the driven shaft. Another friction plate defines a fluid jacket and is coupled to the pins. The friction plate is fixed against rotation, but axially movable, relative to the pins. A pressure plate is configured for selective movement towards the friction plates. Support columns are disposed radially outwardly of each pin and fixed to the end plates The support columns prevent undue strain on the pins. Ventilated guards may also be located between each pair of columns to limit access to internal working components of the brake. | 10-30-2014 |

20150159880 | ADDITIONAL PRIMARY AIR ACCESS FOR SURFACE GAS BURNERS - A gas burner unit for a cooktop having a spreader positioned above the top surface of the cooktop. The spreader has a plurality of gas outlets. A venturi is in fluid communication with the gas outlets. An orifice holder secures a gas orifice in position in a main body of the orifice holder and has a plurality of protrusions extending upwardly and defining a plurality of upwardly directed primary air inlets. The plurality of primary air inlets are in fluid communication with the main body of the orifice holder, and the main body is in fluid communication with the venturi. A general primary air inlet allows ambient air from outside the cooktop to enter the area below the cooktop, and the main body of the orifice holder includes openings allowing fluid communication between the area below the cooktop and the main body of the orifice holder. | 06-11-2015 |
