Patent application number	Description	Published
20110146227	APPARATUS AND ASSEMBLY FOR A SPARK IGNITER - An apparatus and assembly for an igniter is provided. The igniter includes a shell comprising a base, a tip surface, and a sidewall extending therebetween wherein the sidewall surrounds a cavity within the shell. The igniter also includes a shell bore extending from the tip surface to the cavity and a pin embedded into the tip surface extending substantially tangentially with respect to the bore.	06-23-2011

20090070529	DATA PROTECTION AFTER POSSIBLE WRITE ABORT OR ERASE ABORT - A portion of a nonvolatile memory array that is likely to contain, partially programmed data may be identified from a high sensitivity read, by applying stricter than usual ECC requirements, or using pointers to programmed sectors. The last programmed data may be treated as likely to be partially programmed data. Data in the identified portion may be copied to another location, or left where it is with an indicator to prohibit further programming to the same cells. To avoid compromising previously stored data during subsequent programming, previously stored data may be backed up. Backing up may be done selectively, for example, only for nonsequential data, or only when the previously stored data contains an earlier version of data being programmed. If a backup copy already exists, another backup copy is not created. Sequential commands are treated as a single command if received within a predetermined time period.	03-12-2009

20100066490	Apparatus and Method for Rejecting Jammed Coins - A coin separator and rejector apparatus that will electronically release and return jammed coins, tokens, slugs and the like is disclosed. A coin separator and rejector body is described having one or more downwardly inclined coin races formed therein. The rejector body has an upstream portion and a downstream portion. The coin races further comprise a first wall and a second wall wherein at least a portion of one of the race walls is pivotally connected with the rejector body. A first sensor is located in the upstream portion of the rejector body and a second sensor located in said downstream portion of said rejector body. An actuator is in mechanical connection with the pivotal portion of the race wall. A processor is in electrical communication with the sensors and with said actuator. A coin in an upstream portion of a coin separator and rejector is detected by the first sensor and sends a signal to the processor. The processor is programmed to wait a predetermined period of time to receive a signal from the second sensor indicating that the coin has progressed in the coin race to the second sensor. If the processor receives no signal from the second sensor after a predetermined time period has passed, the processor sends a signal to the actuator to open the pivotally connected portion of the separator and rejector to allow the jammed coin to be released from the separator and rejector.	03-18-2010

20090049635	- A hand held cosmetic scraping/scooping tool for use in the recovery and removal of residual amounts of cosmetics (or other products), including, but not limited to, creams, shampoos, ointments, lotions, oils, pastes, powders, gels, liquids, solids, or semi-solids, from tubes, bags, bottles, including tall, narrow-top pump-top bottles, jars, canisters, cups, cans, boxes, or other containers. The scraping tool preferably has both a first scraping portion, and a second scraping portion each of which may be concave. In a preferred version, one end has a wider concave trough scooping portion with a rounded “L” shape at the end of it that is in a continuation trough configuration. The other end is narrower in width and without the “L” shape at the end but with the same concave trough shape. Both ends may be approximately the same length but preferably serve different purposes that work in accordance with the container size and the needs of the user. A middle section between the two scooping trough sections of the tool may be present and preferably has a space for a logo or commercial company name. These tools could be used for personal use as well as for professional use in retrieving creams and lotions from jars and containers to save contamination in hospitals, therapeutic and massage offices, medical centers, commercial sales, counters as well as in the home. The tool may be made of materials that can be sterilized.	02-26-2009

20080201713	Project Management System - A method and apparatus for managing a project are described. According to one embodiment, the method includes the steps of ranking the plurality of tasks to produce a first list; assigning a task cost to each of the plurality of tasks; setting a planned velocity, the planned velocity determining the rate at which task costs are planned to be completed per time segment; and dynamically assigning each of the plurality of tasks to one of the sequence of time segments in the order indicated by the first list based on the planned velocity. In other embodiments, the apparatus includes a machine-readable medium that provides instructions for a processor, which when executed by the processor cause the processor to perform a method of the present invention.	08-21-2008
