20120108918 | Acoustic Palpation Using Non-Invasive Ultrasound Techniques for Identification of Target Sites and Assessment of Chronic Pain Disorders - Methods and systems for identifying and spatially localizing tissues having certain physiological properties or producing certain biological responses, such as the sensation of pain, in response to the application of intense focused ultrasound (acoustic probing or palpation) are provided. In some embodiments, targeted acoustic probing is employed to identify the scope and severity of chronically painful sensitized tissue areas, and of chronic pain disorders. In other applications, targeted acoustic probing is used to localize nerves and other sensitized tissues for guidance of needles and other delivery devices, and for delivery of anesthetic, analgesic or therapeutic compositions. | 05-03-2012 |

20090169379 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR ADVANCED WIND ENERGY CAPTURE SYSTEM - Methods and apparatus of improved wind energy capture system design and operation are discussed. Improved wind energy capture system blade/sail implementations are described. Retractable sails are used in a novel configuration in some but not all implementations. In one embodiment, a turbine blade assembly includes a plurality of uniformly spaced hollow blades. Each hollow blade includes a furling rod onto which a retractable sail can be rolled and stored. Each hollow blade also includes a sail tensioning cable guide for providing tension for a retractable sail included in an adjacent hollow blade. The turbine blades are secured at their root end to a hub assembly. In some but not all embodiments the turbine blades are supported at their tip end, e.g., by using a set of support cables which provide tension. Computer control and automated operations of sail deployment and/or blade adjustments are implemented. | 07-02-2009 |

20090058095 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR ADVANCED WIND TURBINE DESIGN - A wind turbine system includes a variable blade assembly including adjustable sails and wing shaped masts expanding the wind velocity capture envelope. The blade assembly turns a hydraulic pump, which pressurizes fluid and stores the pressurized fluid in a chamber in the support tower. Pressurized fluid is directed via an electronically controllable proportioning valve to a hydraulic motor which is coupled to an electric generator. A computer control module operates the proportioning valve regulating pressure to the hydraulic motor, maintaining generator rotational speed, and providing consistent output frequency to the power grid. Stored energy in the high pressure tank is used to continue generator operation after the winds cease, allowing early warning notification to the power management system of impending power loss. Residual pressure maintained in the high pressure tank allows restart operations via hydraulic pressure rather than power grid energy drain. On site high energy capacitors store additional energy. | 03-05-2009 |

20150292362 | METHOD OF REMANUFACTURING A MACHINE COMPONENT - A method is provided for remanufacturing a machine component having multiple holes. The holes are provided to match in alignment with corresponding holes of an adjacent component in a machine assembly. First and second sets of holes are selected from the holes of the machine component on the basis of being located within first and second limits of positional tolerance with respect to corresponding holes of the adjacent component. Each hole from the first set of holes is bored to define openings in axial alignment with holes of the adjacent component. Each hole from the second set of holes is bored to an enlarged diameter and then plugged with a deformable insert. Each of these inserts is then drilled to define openings in axial alignment with holes of the adjacent component. | 10-15-2015 |

20110101779 | UTILIZATION SYSTEM AND ASSOCIATED METHOD - A system includes an energy storage system capable of receiving electrical energy from an energy source and can supply electrical energy to a first load during a first period and to the first load during a second period. The first load differs in usage rate from the first period relative to the second period. A system controller maintains the energy storage system such that the energy storage system maintains a first amount of stored electrical energy during a first mode, and a second amount of electrical energy during a second mode. The system controller maintains the energy storage system in the first mode during a first portion of the first period, and in the second mode during a second portion of the first period. | 05-05-2011 |
20130249289 | METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM - A system includes an energy storage system capable of receiving electrical energy from an energy source and can supply electrical energy to a first load during a first period and to the first load during a second period.

20140067666 | BILLING SYSTEM AND METHOD - Embodiments of the invention include a bill manager component that can identify an ownership of a vehicle and receive an invoice from a third party for a repair on an owned vehicle. The bill manager component can communicate payment for the repair as well as identify an inconsistency in the invoice based on a set of rules. Based on an identified inconsistency, the bill manager component can communicate a refund invoice to the third party. | 03-06-2014 |
