20110132701 | Spherical Braking System - A spherical braking system mounted on a drive shaft of a vehicle comprising a brake sphere pad positioned just above and below a brake sphere and resting on an at least one segment of a brake housing wherein, the brake housing includes a top segment and bottom segment coupled to mounting dogs by using screws. A hydraulic cap installed on a threaded portion of a hydraulic shaft which is encircled by bushing and coupled near a brake sphere. A plurality of hydraulic lines connected from at least one hydraulic splitter are coupled to the hydraulic cap. When the driver depresses the brake pedal, pistons are forced into fluid chambers in the master cylinder. The resulting hydraulic pressure is transmitted through the hydraulic splitter and hydraulic lines to hydraulic caps which results the vertical movement of the brake pads causes a braking torque to be generated, slowing the rotation of the drive shaft and driven shaft simultaneously, which therefore decreases the speed of the vehicle. | 06-09-2011 |

20150161747 | System and Method for Guaranteed Energy Savings for the Customer - A method and system for providing a customer with guaranteed savings on its long-run energy charges as between a Utility and a Competitive Retailer. Preferably the method and system, including one or more computers with microprocessors for executing computer coded instructions, obtains and stores customer attributes, current energy provider, billing cycle and switching time constraints and restrictions and receives forecasted costs and prices of the Utility and the Competitive Retailer for the customer's next billing cycle. The system processes, via the computer, the customer data and the energy data for the Utility and Competitive Retailer to determine the energy provider projected to have the lower price for the next billing cycle of the customer. Preferably, the system requests a switch to the energy provider projected to have the lower price in that customer's next billing cycle, unless the customer is currently receiving service from the projected energy provider. In a preferred embodiment, the system obtains the actual prices of the Utility and the Competitive Retailer for the customer's billing cycle and charges the customer at the lower actual price. | 06-11-2015 |

20090017841 | Method and System for Improved WLAN Location - Mobile units within an area are located using a wireless local area network. Reference signal transmitters are provided at selected fixed locations within the area. Reference signals are transmitted using the reference signal transmitters using a first selected channel of the wireless local area network. A computer is provided having a database relating signal characteristics of signals transmitted by the reference signal transmitters to location within the area At least one access point is coupled to the computer and provides wireless data communications between the computer and the mobile unit using one or more channels of the wireless data communications system that are different from the first data communications channel. A selected plurality of the reference signals are received at the mobile unit, signal characteristics of the received reference signals are determined and data representing the received reference signal characteristics is transmitted to the computer via the access point using the one or more data communications channels. The data representing reference signal characteristics is received at the computer and position of the mobile unit is determined using the database. | 01-15-2009 |

20140147297 | Air Movement Apparatus With Improved Air Blending - A portable air movement apparatus with improved air blending is provided, having a housing, an air generator, an air outlet, and an ambient air passageway through the housing of the device. The impeller and other components, such as the heating element, are disassociated from the location of the air outlet, allowing for the ability to use more than one air outlet, which serves to spread the air stream over a greater area. The disassociation of the impeller and other components from the air outlet also minimizes the housing size required near the air outlet, thereby allowing ambient air to be entrained in the air flow produced by the apparatus. As such, the apparatus moves more room air through the apparatus and more rapidly blends the air into the entire area or room. | 05-29-2014 |

20150100948 | IRREDUCIBLE MODULES - An approach to generating irreducible modules. The approach includes a method that includes receiving, by at least one computing device, data associated with a specification. The method includes defining, by the at least one computing device, a pattern on the received data. The pattern reduces a set of rules into a single condition. The method includes generating, by the at least one computing device, an irreducible module based on the pattern. The irreducible module has one output dependent variable and is associated with a data flow application. | 04-09-2015 |
