20100068097FLUID-CONTAINING POUCHES WITH REDUCED GAS EXCHANGE AND METHODS FOR MAKING SAME - The invention is directed to fluid-containing pouches and to methods for forming fluid-containing pouches. In one embodiment, the invention is to a fluid-containing pouch, comprising first and second opposing sheets, and a fluid (e.g., a calibrant fluid, a reactant fluid or a wash fluid) disposed between the first and second opposing sheets. The first sheet and the second sheet have a substantially liquid and gas impermeable perimeter seal. The sheets may be sealed, for example, by one or more of heat crimping, pressure crimping, heat and pressure crimping, ultrasonic welding, metal-to-metal welding or laser welding. Fluid-containing pouches sealed according to the disclosed methods and apparatuses show substantially improvement in terms of reduced gas exchange, notably CO03-18-2010

20090211620CONFORMAL SOLAR POWER MATERIAL - A solar cell mesh includes multiple strips of flexible photovoltaic conversion cells disposed in a first direction. Multiple strips of flexible material are intertwined with the multiple strips of flexible photovoltaic material at least somewhat orthogonal to the first direction to form the mesh, such as in a fabric or net. The mesh may be applied to a curved surface of the device and encapsulated such that the mesh is conformal with the curved surface of the device.08-27-2009
20090242021SOLAR CELL WITH COLORIZATION LAYER - Colorization of a solar cell is achieved by modifying a layer proximate an active layer of the solar cell. The color attribute may be obtained by selecting one or more narrow bands of wavelengths in the visible color spectrum to be reflected from the surface of the solar cell unit that results in a specific color or combination of colors at various angles. The spectrum of light reflected from the active solar cell area is controlled through the use of filters that reflect only limited portions of the spectrum, thereby minimizing the effect of reflected light on the overall efficiency of the solar cell.10-01-2009
20110068624SOLAR POWERED SYSTEM WITH GRID BACKUP - A system includes a solar power subsystem that receives power from one or more solar power arrays. A storage control subsystem is coupled to the solar power subsystem to charge a battery from the power received by the solar power subsystem. A grid power control subsystem having an AC to DC converter receives power from a power grid and provides DC voltage to the storage control subsystem. A balance of system control system controls the amount of power received from the power grid as a function of a load, battery charge and received power by the solar power subsystem. The solar array and battery may be sized to provide sufficient power under normal operating conditions, with power being drawn from the grid during abnormal operation conditions.03-24-2011

20090142440Multi-Piece Valve Pin Bushing - A bushing body has an upstream portion and a downstream portion for extending into a channel. The bushing body has a bore therethrough for receiving a valve pin. A contoured sleeve is fit around the downstream portion of the bushing body for guiding a flow of molding material. A cap piece is coupled to the upstream portion of the bushing body for contacting a back plate.06-04-2009
20100047383Injection Molding Apparatus Having A Nozzle Tip Component For Taking A Nozzle Out-of-Service - An injection molding apparatus includes a plurality of valve-gated nozzles, each nozzle having a respective valve pin that is actuated by an actuator. A nozzle tip component for taking one of the valve-gated nozzles of the injection molding apparatus out-of service, wherein the nozzle tip component has a surface that grips the respective valve pin to lock the valve pin in an out-of-service position thereby preventing flow of molding material into an associated mold cavity and causing disengagement of the valve pin from the actuator.02-25-2010
20100159062Injection Molding Apparatus Having Rotating Vane And Method Of Operating Same - An injection molding apparatus includes a manifold defining a manifold channel for receiving pressurized molding material from an upstream source and a nozzle defining a nozzle channel in communication with the manifold channel to define a flow channel. The nozzle is associated with a mold gate of a mold cavity and delivers molding material to the mold gate. A vane, such as that of an impeller or screw, is rotatably disposed in the flow channel upstream of a mold gate. A motor is coupled to the vane and rotates the vane in either direction. Rotation of the impeller or screw can be automatically adjusted by a controller and a sensor that measures pressure, temperature, or other property of the molding material.06-24-2010
20110008480Configurable Manifold - An injection molding apparatus includes a manifold having a melt channel for receiving a melt stream of moldable material from a source. A nozzle having a nozzle channel is coupled to the manifold for receiving the melt stream from the manifold melt channel. The nozzle includes a heater. A mold cavity is in communication with the nozzle channel, the mold cavity for receiving the melt stream from the nozzle channel through a mold gate. A temperature sensor is disposed at the manifold for use in adjusting the heater of the nozzle or for use in adjusting a heater of an inlet body.01-13-2011

20110309211Baby Bottle Pillow Holders - A pillow is used and attached with durable elastic bands supporting a baby bottle. As an infant or disabled child lay and nurse, the baby bottle pillow supports the contents and the bottle. Many times the contents of the bottle will dislodge the bottle, hence the straps that balance the bottle on the pillow. Babies are not capable of keeping stable when feeding, especially if they are disabled, consequently, the design has been careful to compensate for nursing situations.12-22-2011
