| 20080318017 | HYBRID FABRIC - This disclosure relates to a “hybrid” fabric made from a textured multifilament yarn in combination with an untextured multifilament yarn. The portion of multifilament yarns comprising this hybrid fabric are substantially without bulk or texture while the textured portion of multifilament yarns comprising the fabric have bulk. Such hybrid fabrics from this combination of yarns retain substantially similar abrasion resistance and tactility of a fabric made entirely of high tenacity air textured multifilament yarns. Nylon woven hybrid fabrics disclosed herein provide excellent properties especially for uses in apparel, rucksacks, softsided luggage, duffle bags, tenting and the like. | 12-25-2008 |

| 20090128305 | Device and Method for Enhancing Sensory Perception of Vibrational Stimuli - A method and device for improving the detection of a vibrotactile stimulus. Such method may include the steps of temporarily altering the threshold of vibrational detection prior to the onset of a vibrotactile stimulus. This allows the vibrotactile system to achieve improved detection of the intended vibrotactile alert or communication stimulus without necessarily increasing the vibratory displacement amplitude of the stimulus. A corresponding enhanced vibrotactile transducer device is able to produce, over a wide frequency range, or at multiple frequencies, a vibrational stimulus against the body of a user. | 05-21-2009 |

| 20090062092 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VIBROTACTILE GUIDED MOTIONAL TRAINING - Motional training is achieved by providing a subject with vibrotactile feedback in response to an attempt by the subject to perform predetermined motions. In particular, an attempt by the subject to perform at least one predetermined motion is monitored using sensors, such as force plates or inertial sensors. The sensor signals indicate results of the attempt by the subject to perform the at least one predetermined motion, and a variance between the at least one predetermined motion and the results of the attempt by the subject to perform the at least one predetermined motion is determined. Vibrotactile signals are then sent to the subject by activating one or more actuators coupled to the subject, where the one or more actuators are spatially oriented with respect to the subject to indicate one or more directions. The vibrotactile signals indicate the variance with respect to the one or more directions. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20090200880 | WIDE BAND VIBRATIONAL STIMULUS DEVICE - An eccentric mass (EM) motor in a vibrotactile transducer provides a wide band vibrational stimulus to a mechanical load in response to an electrical input. The eccentric mass and motor may form part of the transducer actuator moving mass, which is in contact with a load, i.e, the skin of a user. The moving mass and the actuator housing may be in simultaneous contact with the load. The moving mass may be guided by a spring between the actuator housing and the moving mass. The load, moving mass, spring compliance, and housing mass make up a moving mass resonant system. The spring compliance and system component masses may be configured to maximize the actuator displacement and/or tailor the transducer response to a desired level. This configuration may be implemented as a low-mass wearable wide-band vibrotactile transducer. | 08-13-2009 |

| 20120264068 | Use of ventilation air methane exhausted during mining of non-combustible ore in a surface appliance - Utilization of mine methane produced by mining a non-combustible ore, such as trona, as an energy source for heat, steam, and/or power generation. Such utilization is beneficial for a surface appliance which is close to surface outlet(s) of mine methane recovery system(s). A method for reducing greenhouse gas emissions generated during mining of a non-combustible ore uses the combustion of co-produced mine methane. The mine methane is recovered in a mine ventilation air exhaust with very low methane content and may be additionally recovered in a drainage gas, such as gob gas, with much higher methane content. The surface appliance may be selected from the group consisting of calciner, dryer, boiler, kiln, furnace, engine, turbine, power generation unit, co-generation unit, and any combinations thereof. Benefits may include reduction in energy purchases, reduction in greenhouse emissions, and/or gain through sale of carbon credits to the carbon market by registering carbon reductions. | 10-18-2012 |

| 20110260638 | REFLECTOR-TYPE LAMP WITH INTEGRATED HEAT DISTRIBUTION AND EMI SHIELDING - Reflector-type lamps and housings with integrated heat distribution and EMI shielding are disclosed. A reflector-type lamp includes a lamp housing having a base portion, a reflector portion, and an integrated heat distribution structure. A light source may be located in a reflector housing region or cavity defined by the reflector portion and integrated electronics may be located in a base housing region or cavity defined by the base portion. In general, the heat distribution structure distributes heat from hot spots in the lamp to exterior locations along the base portion and/or reflector portion. The heat distribution structure may also provide electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding when EMI is generated within the lamp, for example, in the integrated electronics. | 10-27-2011 |

| 20100224672 | BRAZE JOINING OF WORKPIECES - A braze joint is made between two workpieces by first forming a thermal shrink fit region between the two workpieces adjacent to, or around, a braze or filler region in which a filler metal is located adjacent to, or within. The filler metal is suitably heated so that it flows in the braze or filler region to form the braze joint of the two workpieces. Cutouts may be formed in the thermal shrink fit region adjacent to the braze or filler region to extend the braze joint region or provide paths for gas byproducts in the brazing process. | 09-09-2010 |

| 20120074135 | Electric Induction Heat Treatment of Continuous Longitudinally-Oriented Workpieces - Multiple longitudinally-oriented continuous workpieces move through separate longitudinally-oriented through-gaps in an open-box rectangular ferromagnetic material that has multiple longitudinally-oriented through-gaps. A transverse magnetic flux established in each through-gap inductively heats the workpiece moving through each through-gap. Alternatively a single longitudinally-oriented workpiece moving through a single adjustable-width longitudinally-oriented through-gap in an open-box rectangular ferromagnetic material is inductively heated by a transverse flux established in the adjustable-width longitudinally-oriented through-gap. | 03-29-2012 |
