20100061503 | Pseudo-capacitor structure for direct nuclear energy conversion - Direct nuclear energy conversion into electricity device based on nano-hetero-structures with applications in nuclear reactors and radioisotope batteries. The nano structure may be made by a repeated customized sequence of nano-layers generically called “CIci” The structure may also be made by a series of structures evolved from CIci as nanoplasmon, nanowire, nano-tube.

The nanoplasmon structure exhibits thermal direct conversion properties by radiation switched mechanism that is generated by the plasmon-phonon resonance. The device has ultra-capacitive properties when made with carbon nanotubes. The device is useful for a direct conversion nano-battery or for nuclear reactor direct conversion structure.

The virtual meeting has meeting content that includes a plurality of meeting content streams. One or more of the meeting content streams is in a non-text format. The one or more meeting content streams in a non-text format can be converted into text. As a result, the plurality of meeting content streams is in text format. The text of the plurality of meeting content streams can be analyzed to identify a key element within the text. Consolidated system notes that include the key element can be generated. | 09-18-2014 |

20130158896 | PRESSURE DETECTION DEVICE - A pressure testing device for calculating a pressure in a flexible line comprises a housing unit, a force sensor mounted on the housing unit and a clamp assembly having a clamp mounted on the housing unit. The clamp is operable to compress the flexible line against the force sensor by a predetermined degree of deformation of the flexible line. The device includes a displacement sensor adapted to measure a displacement of the clamp. The device also includes a controller having a processor in communication with the force sensor and the displacement sensor, and a memory unit containing stored data. At the predetermined degree of deformation of the flexible line, the processor compares a first signal from the force sensor and a second signal from the displacement senor with the stored data to estimate the pressure within the flexible line. | 06-20-2013 |

20090188085 | Hose Clamp - A hose clamp for securing a hose to a component includes a first band of uniform thickness that extends angularly about an axis and includes an engagement surface, and a second band having the uniform thickness and formed in one piece with the first band, extending angularly about the axis, offset axially from the first band, and including a latch surface engageable with the engagement surface, the clamp having an open state in which the first band and the second band are elastically urged angularly about the axis toward contact with the hose, said engagement maintaining an elastically resilient load between the first band and the second band. | 07-30-2009 |
20120306170 | VEHICLE WITH ACTIVE-REGENERATIVE SUSPENSION - In accordance with an exemplary embodiment, an active suspension system having a regenerative actuator is provided for an electric or hybrid electric vehicle. The system comprises a drive system including a battery mounted to a chassis and a controller coupled to the drive system. The controller also couples to a suspension system between the chassis and at least one wheel of the vehicle. The suspension system includes an actuator having an electric motor providing energy by converting linear movement of a ball screw into rotational movement of a rotor having a hollow core permitting at least a portion of the ball screw to translate within the rotor during operation of the actuator. | 12-06-2012 |
20140131960 | VEHICLE SUSPENSION SYSTEMS - A suspension system for a vehicle includes a damper and a jack assembly. The damper includes a first tube defining a first cavity and having a longitudinal axis, a second tube disposed within the first cavity and defining a second cavity, wherein the second tube is spaced apart from the first tube to define a reservoir chamber, and a piston translatable within the second cavity along the axis, wherein the piston abuts the second tube to define a rebound chamber and a compression chamber. The system includes a jack assembly attached to the damper and configured for raising and lowering the body with respect to the wheel. The assembly includes a jack piston abutting the first tube, and a jack cylinder also abutting the first tube and translatable with respect to the jack piston to thereby raise and lower the body. A vehicle including the suspension system is also disclosed. | 05-15-2014 |
20140131961 | VEHICLE SUSPENSION SYSTEMS - A suspension system for a vehicle includes a damper having a central longitudinal axis, and a jack assembly attached to the damper. The jack assembly includes a seat abutting and rotatable about the damper, a resilient member coiled about the damper and coupled to the seat so that the resilient member is not rotatable with respect to the seat, a ball screw abutting and fixedly attached to the damper, wherein the ball screw is not rotatable about the damper, a ball nut abutting and rotatable about the ball screw and the damper, a first clutch coiled about the ball nut and coupled to the seat, and a second clutch coiled about the damper and coupled to the ball nut. The seat is translatable along the damper to thereby raise and lower the body of the vehicle. A vehicle including the suspension system is also disclosed. | 05-15-2014 |

20120254239 | LOCATING AND EXECUTING OBJECTS IN A DISTRIBUTED NETWORK - The subject disclosure relates to interaction and execution of objects in a distributed network or in the cloud. Each object comprises a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) path that names the object in the cloud through a distributed object directory. A client device can directly interface with a live instance of an object based on the URI path. The object can be agnostic to remote procedure call semantics. In some aspects, the object can be connected to an interacted with either remotely or locally. Further, single instances or multiple instances of the object can exist at substantially the same time. | 10-04-2012 |
