Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100051346Cable management system - A cable management system includes track units whose tracks are engageable to each other at longitudinal ends to ease installation of the tracks to a wall surface as a chain of longitudinally aligned tracks. The system also includes an adjustable track unit whose longitudinal length can be varied, so that a desired length of longitudinally aligned track units can be obtained without cutting a track unit of the system. In addition, the system includes a cap attachable at an end of a track unit for strengthening the engagement between the cover and the track of the track unit.03-04-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080305267Method and apparatus for low cost high rate deposition tooling - An apparatus and method for depositing material on an array of substrates. The array of substrates may be moved past one or more sources of deposition material in a first rotational motion. The array of substrates may also be concurrently moved in a second rotational motion. The combination of the first and second rotational motions cause each of the substrates to move about its longitudinal axis without gears and bearings.12-11-2008

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080229651FISHHOOK REMOVING TOOL AND METHOD OF USE THEREOF - A pliers-type tool having gripping channels and a longitudinal axis, further comprises gripping ridges disposed at selected angles from the longitudinal axis to facilitate gripping a fishhook in different dispositions for extraction of the fishhook from a fish. An alternate embodiment comprises top and bottom end portions and a middle portion intermediate the top and bottom end portions. A shoulder connected to the top end portion has first and second portions offset from the longitudinal axis. A first hook engaging member joined to the first portion of the shoulder angularly extends toward the longitudinal axis. The first hook engaging member has an inner surface defining a plurality of grooves therein adapted to engage the fish hook to facilitate removal thereof from the fish's mouth.09-25-2008

20080201302USING PROMOTION ALGORITHMS TO SUPPORT SPATIAL SEARCHES - Computerized methods and systems for performing a search utilizing a spatial index are provided. Upon receiving a search query having a zoom level component (e.g., “Italian Restaurants in Seattle”), a search is initially conducted of the zoom level tags associated with the content items in the spatial index to determine if any of the content items include a zoom level tag indicative of the zoom level component of the search query (e.g., zoom level of city for Seattle). Subsequently, only those content items satisfying the zoom level search are grouped into a primary subset, whereby the primary subset may be filtered by selecting those returned content items with location-based tags that match a location-based component of the query (e.g., Seattle, Wash.). Next, the those content items satisfying the location-based filter are grouped into a location-based subset, which are filtered according to the parsed query components (e.g., category component Italian Restaurants).08-21-2008

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090120002DOOR OPENING AND CLOSING DEVICE - A door opener system for opening and closing a door relative to a structure includes a rack gear that is hinged on one end to the structure. The door opener system also includes a pinion drive mechanism that is fixed to the door. The door opener system further includes a pinion gear that is engaged with the rack gear and that is rotationally driven by the pinion drive mechanism. In addition, the door opener system includes a retention assembly supporting at least one guide bearing that is engaged with the rack gear. Additional embodiments are disclosed.05-14-2009
20100199565Hydraulic Systems and Methods Thereof - An orientation-independent hydraulic system comprises a dynamic fluid reservoir defining a first volume substantially equal to the volume of the fluid therein, and a hydraulic cylinder in fluid communication with the dynamic fluid reservoir. The hydraulic cylinder has a second volume of hydraulic fluid and a piston rod configured to extend and retract in response to changes in the second volume. A first hydraulic pump is configured to pump hydraulic fluid between the hydraulic cylinder and the dynamic fluid reservoir, thereby moving the piston rod between the extended and retracted positions.08-12-2010
20100257999Battery-Powered Motor Unit - The technology herein relates to rotating a second structure, which can be a turret, relative to a first structure, which can be a vehicle. The system can include a motor unit having a motor with a motor gear to rotate a drive shaft and a drive gear. A manual input shaft can also be configured to transmit rotation to the drive shaft. The motor can have a central axis that forms an angle of less than 90 degrees with a plane substantially defined by an outer surface of a gear box coupled to the motor. A mounting bracket is configured to allow mechanical communication between the motor unit and an internal ring gear. The mounting bracket has a mounting frame defining at least a first slide channel. A first motor unit coupler has a slide flange that is slidably received by the mounting frame and receives a motor unit. The internal ring gear can be mounted to a vehicle and a turret can be pivotably disposed within the internal ring gear. A motor unit is mounted on the turret and a drive gear is rotatably mounted on the motor unit and in direct engagement with the internal ring gear.10-14-2010

20110075507DIFFUSER/EMULSIFIER - A diffuser provides the ability to diffuse one or more infusion materials into a host material. A rotor and stator rotate relative to one another. The infusion materials are drawn through openings in the rotor and stator. These openings are also causing turbulence within the host material, which is flowing through an area between the rotor and stator. As aligned openings pass one another, succussion occurs, which provides energy to diffuse the infusion materials into the host material to an extremely high degree. The opening patterns in the rotor and stator can be designed to operate at a single frequency or at multiple frequencies. The frequencies of operation may affect bonding between the infusion materials and the host material and may also be effective in break down of complex molecular structures.03-31-2011
