Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120055586VARIABLE MELTING POINT SOLDERS - The present invention relates to variable melting point solder formulations. The solder is comprised of at least one base metal or base metal alloy, preferably alloyed with at least one melting point depressant metal, such that the solidus point of the solder composition is reduced to an initial solidus temperature. Said base metal or base metal alloy, alloyed with at least one melting point depressant metal is mixed with at least one additive metal or additive metal alloy. When heated to a process temperature above said initial solidus temperature, a reaction occurs between the melting point depressant metal, and the additive metal, such that solidification occurs at the process temperature via the formation of intermetallic phases, effectively increasing the solidus of the base metal, and of the overall solder.03-08-2012

20110115190BICYCLE PROPULSION ASSEMBLY HAVING TELESCOPING ELONGATE MEMBERS ENGAGEABLE THROUGH CIRCULAR MOTION - The present invention provides a propulsion assembly for a bicycle. The propulsion assembly includes a support member that at least extends from the bicycle frame to a distal end spaced-apart from the rear wheel. The assembly includes a first drive mechanism rotatably mounted on the frame and axially connected to the rear wheel for transmitting motion thereto. A second drive mechanism is rotatably mounted at the distal end of the support member and coupled with the first drive mechanism. Ratchet mechanisms axially extend from the second drive mechanism and connect to a pair of elongate members. The bicycle has pedal arms with pedals extending therefrom. The elongate members are pivotally, operatively connected to the pedals. The pedals with pedal arms are movable in a circular manner for transmitting rotational power to the elongate members for propelling the bicycle.05-19-2011

20090261552BICYCLE PROPULSION ASSEMBLY HAVING ELONGATE MEMBERS - The present invention provides a propulsion assembly for a bicycle. The propulsion assembly includes a support member that at least extends from the bicycle frame to a distal end spaced-apart from the rear wheel. The assembly includes a first drive mechanism rotatably mounted on the frame and axially connected to the rear wheel for transmitting motion thereto. A second drive mechanism is rotatably mounted at the distal end of the support member and coupled with the first drive mechanism. Ratchet mechanisms axially extend from the second drive mechanism and connect to a pair of elongate members having pedals. The pedals are movable from an upper position to a lower position for transmitting one-way rotational power to the second drive mechanism. There is a means for selectively returning the pair of elongate members from the lower position to the upper position.10-22-2009

20110219432System and Method for Controlling Access to an Electronic Message Recipient - A system and method for selectively allowing or denying access to a user coupled to an electronic communications network includes a receiver that receives an inbound message over the electronic communications network from a sender. The inbound message includes an identifier that is associated with a sender and an identifier that is associated with a recipient. The system also includes a processor that determines if the identifier associated with the recipient was previously generated by the user and is absent from a plurality of proxy identifiers associated with the recipient. The processor is further determines one of at least three security states associated with the inbound message. A first security state is indicative of allowing delivery of the inbound message to the user. A second security state is indicative of denying delivery of the inbound message to the user. A third security state is indicative of conditionally allowing delivery of the message to the user. Each of the three security states are associated with the sender identifier and the recipient identifier included in the inbound message.09-08-2011

20080222046METHOD OF AND SYSTEM FOR EFFECTING ANONYMOUS CREDIT CARD PURCHASES OVER THE INTERNET - A transaction system for performing secure transactions over a communication network includes (i) a merchant server system including a computer processor and associated memory, the merchant server system offering items for sale; (ii) a buyer system including a computer processor and associated memory, the buyer system being selectively couplable to the merchant server system over the communication network to initiate a transaction, wherein, during the transaction, the buyer system selects one or more of the items for purchase; (iii) a security server system including a computer processor and associated memory and an encryption device, the security server system receiving buyer information from the buyer system, encrypting the buyer information in an encryption key that prevents the merchant server system from decrypting the buyer information, and transferring the encrypted buyer information to the merchant server system; and (iv) a third server system including a computer processor and associated memory, the third server system being selectively couplable to the merchant server system, wherein the merchant server system transmits at least a portion of the encrypted buyer information to the third server system for processing during the transaction.09-11-2008
20110145892SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ACCESS TO AN ELECTRONIC MESSAGE RECIPIENT - A system for, and method of, generating a plurality of proxy identities to a given originator identity as a means of providing controlled access to the originator identity in electronic communications media such as e-mail and instant messaging.06-16-2011
20110213841SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING AN ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION - A system and method for generating an electronic communication having a message component and a digital medium component. The technology includes, for example, identifying, assembling and exchanging digital medium between parties to complement various forms of electronic communication (e.g., “electronic mail”, “instant messaging”, etc.) where messages are directed between participants using sender and recipient identifiers (e.g., to, from, etc.). To generate the electronic communication, a characteristic (e.g., property, content) of an electronic communication between two or more parties is determined. One or more digital medium components are received from one or more third party servers. The one or more digital medium components are determined by at least one of the one or more third party servers based on the characteristic. A modified electronic communication is generated based on the electronic communication and the one or more digital medium components.09-01-2011

20100328076Wireless Hand Hygiene Monitoring System - A method and mobile electronic device for monitoring hand hygiene policy compliance is provided. The device comprises a radio transceiver and is configured to detect proximity to base stations by measuring radio signal strength from the base stations and to communicate the proximity information to a central computer via the radio transceiver and to receive notification of compliance or non-compliance with the hand hygiene policy from the central computer. The central computer determines compliance by tracking the location of device in relation to the base stations and monitoring hand hygiene events reported by hand hygiene base stations.12-30-2010

20090282463EFFICIENT ATTACHMENT OF USER-SELECTED FILES TO E-MAIL FROM HANDHELD DEVICE - A wireless telecommunications system includes facilities in a wireless hand-held device (WHHD) that allows a user to browse files available to that user on storage devices in an enterprise network, and to identify one or more such files to be attached to an e-mail message to be composed on or transmitted from the handheld. The system includes facilities in an enterprise network, such as a file delivery server, that cooperates with the WHHD to provide the file browsing service. A mail agent cooperates with the WHHD, responsive to instruction from the handheld to send an e-mail message that is to contain an attachment, to request the file delivery server to retrieve the identified files and assemble an e-mail containing those files as attachments. The WHHD may receive from the user appropriate credentials needed to access files available to that user on storage devices in the enterprise network, and may forward the credential to the file delivery server and the mail agent. These components may use the credentials to provide the file browsing service and to retrieve the identified files.11-12-2009
