20150090114 | AIRCRAFT ELECTROSTATIC PARTICLE SEPARATION CONTROL SYSTEM - An Environmental Control System may use an electronic particle separation system to control humidity in an aircraft. The electronic particle separation system may include a particle separator, a sensor module, and a controller configured to receive signals from the sensor module, and operate the particle separator based on the received sensor signals. In some embodiments, the controller may include a processor which may determine whether the particle separator is being operated under an ozone related condition exceeding a threshold operating condition. If one of the threshold operating conditions is exceeded, the particle separator may be turned off which may control the amount of ozone present in the aircraft. | 04-02-2015 |
20150090119 | SELF-CONTAINED AIRCRAFT ELECTRONIC AIR TREATMENT SYSTEM - An Environmental Control System may use an electronic air treatment system to control humidity in an aircraft. The electronic air treatment system may use an electronic charging system and a separation system. A turbine rotor may drive a power generating stage to provide high voltage power to the electronic charging system. The charging stage may charge airflow passing through to repel liquid particles away from the airflow. Liquid droplets may be collected and centrifugally flung toward a periphery of the separation system. The liquid particles may be collected outside of the airflow, which may be allowed to pass through the separation system and out to a destination in the aircraft without the collected liquid. | 04-02-2015 |
20150090120 | AIRCRAFT ELECTRONIC PARTICLE SEPARATION SYSTEM - An Environmental Control System may use an electronic particle separation system to control humidity in an aircraft. The electronic particle separation system may include a charging stage and a collecting stage. The charging stage may charge airflow passing through to repel liquid particles away from the airflow. Liquid droplets may be collected by the collecting stage and centrifugally flung toward a periphery of a separator. The liquid particles may be collected outside of the airflow which may be allowed to pass through the separator and out to a destination in the aircraft without the collected liquid. | 04-02-2015 |

20120081230 | POWER CONSERVING ALERT FOR MEDICAL DEVICES - Techniques are provided for alerting a person to check a medical device while conserving battery power. The medical device initiates a status alert if a readiness condition of the medical device is no longer being met. The status alert includes notification periods during which an audible sound is emitted alternating with off periods during which substantially no audible sound is emitted. The audible sounds may include certain tones or at least one spoken word. At least one of the duration of successive notification periods or the duration of successive off periods may be varied. In this manner, the medical device may provide audible sound at different times during the day in an attempt to get the attention of a person. In addition, the medical device may sense an activity to determine when to provide the audible sound. | 04-05-2012 |

20140213175 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ACHIEVING CONTINUED LISTENING EXPERIENCE FOR CAR RADIO HEAD UNIT - A method of operating a radio in a vehicle includes tuning the radio to a first radio source. Information identifying the first radio source is transmitted from the vehicle to a remote processor. The processor monitors broadcast content of the first radio source on a web site. The processor identifies a second radio source having broadcast content matching the broadcast content of the first radio source. Information identifying the second radio source is transmitted from the processor to the vehicle. When a quality of a broadcast signal from the first radio source received at the vehicle falls below a threshold quality level, tuning of the radio is switched from the first radio source to the second radio source. | 07-31-2014 |
20150126144 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MODE BALANCE FOR ANALOG FM, DIGITAL RADIO BLEND LOGIC IN AN AUTOMOTIVE ENVIRONMENT - A radio includes a first tuner and a second tuner. A processor compares a first perceivable volume level of a station tuned by the first tuner to at least one second perceivable volume level of at least one background station tuned by the second tuner. The processor enables automatic volume knob changes using a pre-calibrated lookup table that associates a volume step of the volume knob with a difference between the first perceivable volume level and the second perceivable volume level. | 05-07-2015 |

20150290702 | UP-DRAWING CONTINUOUS CASTING APPARATUS AND UP-DRAWING CONTINUOUS CASTING METHOD - An up-drawing continuous casting apparatus includes a holding furnace that holds molten metal, and a shape defining member that is set near a molten metal surface of a molten metal held in the holding furnace, and defines a section shape of a casting to be cast, as the molten metal passes through the shape defining member. The shape defining member is able to be switched between a joined state and a partitioned state. With such a structure, it becomes possible to form a casting having a branched structure. | 10-15-2015 |
