20110214760 | Screw top liqid dispensing chamber - The invention is a device which works similar to a ‘liquor dispenser’. To use the invention the original cap on the beverage carton must be screwed off. The invention screws onto a screw top beverage carton (usually milk/cream carton also referred to as a Gable Top Carton usually made of a cardboard type material). It has a straight pour spout which always keep the spout in pouring position and two chambers. These chambers contain steel balls that function according to angle and pressure when the invention is secured onto the beverage carton threaded neck and is raised to pour liquid into a cup. The steel ball in the main chamber acts as a stopper. This occurs when a specified amount of liquid has rushed through the two side hollow windows of the chamber and out of the spout. When the ball rolls to the top wall of the main chamber it blocks excessive liquid from exiting the spout thus creating a measured serving. This invention is unique because it attaches to the neck of the screw cap housing located atop of a beverage carton by means of an internal thread. The invention is externally located with the chamber reaching inside of the beverage carton just past the beginning of the beverage carton neck. | 09-08-2011 |

20160075444 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TRIGGERING AN EMERGENCY MEASURE - A method for triggering a plurality of emergency measures associated with an aircraft emergency is disclosed. The method includes determining a risk level for an aircraft emergency by evaluating a plurality of flight parameters and/or aircraft parameters using a predefined logic. For each emergency measure of the plurality of emergency measures a threshold is defined and each emergency measure of the plurality of emergency measures is only triggered if the determined risk level exceeds the threshold defined for the emergency measure. Further, a system for use onboard an aircraft for triggering a plurality of emergency measures associated with an aircraft emergency and an aircraft comprising such a system are disclosed. | 03-17-2016 |
20160075446 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TRIGGERING AN EMERGENCY MEASURE - A method for triggering a first emergency measure associated with an aircraft emergency comprising the steps of determining a risk level for an aircraft emergency and triggering the first emergency measure if the risk level exceeds a first threshold for the first emergency measure is described and claimed. The risk level is determined by evaluating a plurality of flight parameters and/or aircraft parameters using a predefined logic. The first threshold is adjusted according to a position of the aircraft over ground. Furthermore, a system for use onboard an aircraft for triggering a first emergency measure and an aircraft comprising such a system are disclosed. | 03-17-2016 |

20100117481 | WINDING ARRANGEMENT FOR AN ELECTRICAL MACHINE - A design for and method of winding an electric motor, generator or other electrical machine using multiple strands of wire preformed into a wave shape with a plurality of legs connected by shaped end turns. This results in efficient packing and improved machine performance in terms of both efficiency and power density without the need for flux concentrators. The conductors or windings may be preformed so as to be a self supporting structure, aiding assembly and eliminating the need for an iron core. | 05-13-2010 |

20120298206 | HYDROGEN RELEASE SYSTEM - A system for discharging hydrogen from two or more hydrogen storage vessels ( | 11-29-2012 |
20120312701 | HYDROGEN STORAGE UNIT - A hydrogen vessel comprising a fluid communication port, an outer vessel and an inner compartment. The inner vessel contains a hydrogen storage material, such as a metal hydride. In one embodiment the inner vessel is mechanically isolated from the outer vessel. The separation between the outer and inner vessel provides a peripheral volume between each vessel. The peripheral volume about the inner compartment may be fluidly isolated from the inner compartment. The hydrogen storage unit further includes a fluid pressure device in communication with the peripheral volume; and a controller for controlling the fluid pressure device during desorption and absorption. | 12-13-2012 |

20120118242 | ABSORBENT MATERIAL - An absorbent composition is manufactured and used in cat litter. The composition includes: a particulate inorganic mineral, one or more superabsorbent polymers (SAP) dispersed between the particles of the mineral, and a hydrophilic binder capable of binding the mineral and the SAP into discrete granules. The granular material produced has water absorbency characteristics comparable to that of more expensive bentonite-products. The mineral may be waste quarry fines that would otherwise have to be disposed of. Such fines are widely available, in contrast to bentonite that must be shipped from a restricted number of locations, which is environmentally damaging and associated with excessive product miles. The granules can be made by mixing the mineral and the super absorbent polymer to form a slurry, draining the water from the slurry and optionally pressing the resulting filter cake, mixing the binder with the wet filter cake and granulating the resulting composition. | 05-17-2012 |
