| 20110132690 | Mechanical energy storage system - This invention relates to a mechanical energy storage system, incorporating upper and lower reservoirs supported in a rigid frame. Metal balls are initially stored in the upper reservoir, a form of storage with potential energy that can be converted to kinetic energy. The balls are selectively released from the upper reservoir. The balls are then guided by a plurality of ramps, and said balls are then deposited in the lower reservoir. The invention further relates to renewable energy, such as solar energy, as a means of returning the balls from the lower to the upper reservoir. A further object is that the invention will continue to operate during those periods of time when solar energy is unavailable, without relying on backup power from battery packs or from power coming directly from a utility company. | 06-09-2011 |

| 20100274827 | TIER-BASED DATA MANAGEMENT - The present invention addresses the deficiencies of the related art by providing a tier-based data storage solution. Specifically, the present invention evaluates the data contained in database tables by analyzing several metrics for the data, and creating a valuation score. The valuation score is used to determine the storage tier that would meet the performance and availability requirements of the database with the goal of reducing the costs associated with storing that data. The metrics that are used to evaluate database tables include (among others): table purpose, data retention, disk requirements, data criticality, data relevance, and desired performance. As such, the present invention will develop a data (lifecycle) storage plan for each set of data. This storage plan not only identifies an initial storage tier where the data should be stored, but also identifies, if, when and to where the data should be moved thereafter. | 10-28-2010 |

| 20090068855 | MODULAR BOARD TO BOARD CONNECTOR - A connector assembly has a receptacle module and a pin module that interconnect. Stiffener engagement projections and recesses are provided along the sides of the receptacle and pin modules in an alternating fashion. The recesses are sized and shaped to receive the stiffener engagement projections of a respective neighboring module. Stainless steel elongated stiffener plates removably engage the pin and receptacle modules in both an X-direction and/or a Y-direction. The stiffener plates have slots that extend partly through the plates and align with the stiffener engagement projections and receiving recesses. The slots receive respective ones of the projections of the neighboring pin and receptacle modules. | 03-12-2009 |
| 20110104948 | SURFACE MOUNT FOOTPRINT IN-LINE CAPACITANCE - An interconnection system with capacitors integrated into a printed circuit board footprint of an electrical connector. One end of each capacitor shares a pad on the printed circuit board with a contact tail of a conductive element in a connector. The shared pads are not connected through vias to internal circuit structures. Rather, a via, such as which would conventionally be formed as part of the connector mounting pad, is formed as part of a separate, adjacent pad. A second end of the capacitor is attached to the adjacent pad, forming an electrical connection between the conductive element and the via through the capacitor. Incorporating capacitors into the footprint reduces the number of vias required, which improves signal integrity. The capacitors may be placed on the printed circuit board separately from the connector or may be incorporated into the connector, allowing the connector and capacitors to be placed in one operation. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110212632 | HIGH DENSITY ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR AND PCB FOOTPRINT - An interconnection system that includes a daughter card and backplane electrical connectors, each mounted to a printed circuit board at a connector footprint. The backplane connector has conductive elements with transition regions that allow the mating contact portions to be positioned on a uniform pitch while contact tail portions can be shaped to improve signal integrity or to provide a more compact and/or mechanically robust footprint. The conductive elements in both connectors are configured such that the contact tails of the ground conductors align from column to column, but the planar portions of the ground conductors in one column align with a pair of signal conductors in the other column, which improves mechanical and signal integrity. Mechanical integrity may be improved by forming the connector footprints with pads for the ground conductors that span multiple columns. | 09-01-2011 |
| 20110212649 | HIGH DENSITY ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR WITH VARIABLE INSERTION AND RETENTION FORCE - An interconnection system that includes a daughter card and backplane electrical connectors mounted to printed circuit boards at connector footprints. The spring rate of beam-shaped contacts in the daughter card connector increases while mating with the backplane connector so that the retention force may be greater than the insertion force. Such a change in spring rate may be achieved by positioning the beam-shaped contacts adjacent a surface of a connector housing. That surface may include a projection that aligns with the beam-shaped contact. When the connectors are unmated, the beam-shaped contact may be spaced from the projection. As the connectors begin to mate, a central portion of the beam-shaped contact may be pressed against the projection, which has the effect of shortening the beam length and increasing its stiffness. | 09-01-2011 |
| 20120196482 | MULTI-STAGE BEAM CONTACTS - An electrical connector has a first wafer having a first housing with a first plurality of contact beams extending from the first housing in a first plane. A second wafer has a second housing with a second plurality of contact beams extending from said second housing in a second plane substantially parallel to the first plane. A dividing panel member extends from the insulative housing between the first plurality of contact beams and the second plurality of contact beams. Each of the contact beams extending from the wafer pair is configured to mate with a corresponding backplane contact in a backplane connector. The contact beams extending from the wafer pair and the backplane contacts are configured such that each pair of corresponding contacts includes a first contact point and a second contact point. When the wafer pair is fully received by the backplane connector, contact between the contact beam and the backplane contact is maintained at both the first and second contact points. Each of the contact beams includes a pivot member configured such that the electrical connector has a low initial insertion force, but a high normal force when fully mated with the backplane connector. | 08-02-2012 |
