20080225484 | THERMAL PILLOW - Methods, apparatus and assemblies for enhancing heat transfer in electronic components using a flexible thermal pillow. The flexible thermal pillow has a thermally conductive material sealed between top and bottom conductive layers, with the bottom layer having a flexible reservoir residing on opposing sides of a central portion of the pillow that has a gap.

20110133759 | Quick connect sensor apparatus - An electronic sensor for determining if a metal hose connector is fully snapped into its mating plastic connector. This sensor detects the metal hose in position by having a coil in position over the plastic connector and at the end of the metal hose when it is in correct position. The metal of the hose interacts with the magnetic field of the coil to both increase the inductance and greatly reduce the ‘Q’ because of the “shorted turn” effect of the round metal hose. The sensor inherently detects faults in its own circuit because of the comparator voltage window. Faults such as an open coil, oscillator or rectifier failure will appear at the output as “hose disconnected” which is the desirable failure mode. The invention also detects external faults because of the two non-zero, non-line voltages seen during normal operation. | 06-09-2011 |
20140174173 | ANALOG CONDUCTIVE LIQUID LEVEL SENSOR - An analog conductive liquid level sensor for conductive liquids having three probes. The invention provides an analog output in proportion to the level or volume of the fluid. Triangular shaped probes are closer together at the top than at the bottom with the respective triangular apexes at the bottom resulting in a nearly linear output voltage in accordance with the fluid level. The shape of the probes can be changed to proportion the voltage output to the fluid volume of an irregular shaped container. A driver probe near the bottom of the container provides a constant area exposed to the conductive liquid. This probe provides compensation for the variations in fluid conductivity which could introduce errors in the level indication in the container as found with two probe systems. | 06-26-2014 |

20120079775 | Retrofit Roof Assembly - Disclosed is a retrofit arrangement for securing a new roof structure above an already existing roof structure. The system uses thermal blocks placed crosswise between the ribs on the existing roof structure. Above a series of these thermal blocks, a longitudinal support strip is provided onto which a plurality of clips can be fastened. The blocks provide thermal resistance, and enable a reduction in number of fasteners required for assembly. | 04-05-2012 |

20140209588 | HIGH POWER FACTOR RECTIFIER/FILTER FOR THREE PHASE INPUT WELDER OR PLASMA CUTTER - A power supply is provided. The power supply in one form includes a rectifier circuit, a capacitor and an RC circuit. The rectifier circuit is configured to receive a three phase AC signal. The rectifier circuit has a positive output connected to a positive node and a negative output connected to a negative node. The capacitor is connected in parallel with the rectifier circuit between the positive node and the negative node. The RC circuit includes a resistor and capacitor connected in electrical series connection where the resistor and capacitor are connected between the positive node and the negative node in parallel with the first capacitor and the rectifier circuit. | 07-31-2014 |
20140211512 | SPLIT PHASE SYNCHRONIZATION OF WELDER/CUTTER INVERTER MODULES FOR RIPPLE IMPROVEMENT - A modular power supply is provided. The modular power supply includes multiple inverters and a controller. Each inverter is configured to receive an input voltage and provide an output to a load. The controller is configured to provide a synchronization signal to each inverter of the plurality of inverters. | 07-31-2014 |

20120117817 | Shoes with Replaceable Cushions and Soles - A show with a replaceable cushion and sole is provided. A user may change the cushioning and soles of a pair of shoes without buying an entirely new pair of shoes. A replaceable sole and cushion for a shoe is provided which may be easily attached and removed. It may also use a hook and loop fastening material (e.g. Velcro) and various tab connections for further securing the replaceable sole in place. When a user changes the sole, the user also changes the cushioning of the shoe that has worn out. The new, replaceable cushioning and sole preclude the user having to buy a new pair of shoes. Instead, the user only buys new replaceable cushioning and soles. They may also include a finger loop for easy removal and attachment. | 05-17-2012 |
