20120139163 | AUTOMATED CONCRETE STRUCTURAL MEMBER FABRICATION SYSTEM, APPARATUS AND METHOD - A casting machine for fabrication of precast concrete structural members, which includes side walls and end dams which are all movable from an open position to a closed position, and a bottom casting surface, where the bottom casting surface, side walls, and end dams serving to form a mold surrounding a cavity configured to contain wet concrete. Concrete is poured into the cavity when the self-releasing mold is in closed position. The side walls, and end dams are automatically movable to the open position when the concrete has solidified so that a precast concrete structural member is automatically released from the self-releasing mold. Also a precast modular system for automated concrete structural member fabrication, which includes a concrete mixing system, a concrete delivery subsystem, a block transport subsystem, and a plurality of casting machines, where each casting machine includes a self-releasing mold. | 06-07-2012 |

20140156552 | CONSTRUCTION CONTAINER - The present disclosure relates to a reusable container, and specifically, a dual service reusable container. The containers may be prepositioned at a particular location until the items stored within the container are needed. This is possible because the dual service reusable containers may be both weather resistant and lockable. The containers are designed to be stackable when loaded, reducing the footprint occupied by the containers, improving shipping efficiency, and improving the utilization of the valuable floor space. When unloaded or when partially loaded, the containers may be nested so that valuable floor space is efficiently used. | 06-05-2014 |

20130234961 | DIGITIZER SYSTEM - A digitizer system includes a designated sensing area comprising a plurality of sensing lines for sensing an electromagnetic signal emitted by a stylus interacting with the digitizer system, circuitry for detecting output from the plurality of sensing lines and for determining an interacting position of the stylus in the designated sensing area based on the output detected and a peripheral area contiguous to the designated sensing area. The peripheral area includes a plurality of conductive elements for connecting the plurality of sensing lines to the circuitry and at least one auxiliary sensing line extending over the peripheral area in the vicinity of the plurality of conductive elements and connected to the circuitry. The at least one auxiliary sensing line is operable to sense the electromagnetic signal when it is emitted over the peripheral area and the circuitry is operable to detect output from the at least one auxiliary sensing line. | 09-12-2013 |
20130265258 | METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING TOUCH ON A TOUCH SCREEN - A method for identifying input to a grid based digitizer sensor includes defining a matrix of data from outputs sampled from digitizer sensor, defining a function for modeling spread of a touch signal around a touch location and performing a convolution operation on the matrix of data based on the function defined for modeling spread of the touch signal. The grid based digitizer sensor defines a grid of junctions and entries in the matrix correspond to outputs at junctions of the grid based sensor. The convolution operation provides an updated matrix of data with enhanced touch information and detecting coordinates of the input to the digitizer sensor from the updated matrix of data. | 10-10-2013 |

20130149575 | Electric Vehicle Battery with Series and Parallel Fluid Flow - A fluid cooled series/parallel battery pack is provided with a fluid flow system. A plurality of prismatic battery cells are arranged in parallel in two or more rows. Fluid flows in a series flow configuration from an upstream row of batteries to a downstream row of batteries. A bypass passageway provides additional fluid flow to an inner plenum located between the rows of batteries to reduce pressure drop and provide more uniform temperatures within the rows of battery cells. | 06-13-2013 |
20130164593 | Modular Fluid Transport System - A modular thermal management system for a battery in an electric vehicle is provided. In one embodiment, a modular thermal management system for a battery in an electric vehicle is provided. The modular system includes a plurality of manifold segments. Each of the manifold segments further comprises a plurality of fluid ports adapted to connect to a heat exchanger fin for a battery cell. Each manifold segment corresponds to a battery stack comprised of a plurality cells and heat exchanger fins. At least one manifold clip is provided for securing two adjacent manifold segments together. The manifold clip bridges the coupling joint and engages retention features on each of the two manifold segments in order to inhibiting separation longitudinally between the two manifold segments. A plurality of manifold clips are configured to secure a plurality of manifold segments together accommodate a plurality of battery stack configurations. | 06-27-2013 |
