20100045207 | Low-cost drive system for an LED triad - A drive system for powering LED triads includes a controller for supplying power to one or more LED triad modules with integral encoding of the desired hue and intensity information. The LED triad modules each include an LED triad and decoding circuitry for activating the individual LED elements of the triad according to the encoded hue and intensity information. In the illustrated configuration, the controller supplies power to the LED triad modules over a pair of conductors, and the supplied power is modulated using a four-phase encoding sequence that is decoded by the decoding circuitry of each LED triad module so that each LED triad module produces light of the desired hue and intensity. | 02-25-2010 |

20120311883 | TOWER GRAIN DRYER - A rotatable grain tower mounted on a stationary base. The base includes an opening for the removal of grain from a grain plenum in the tower. As the tower is rotated, a metering device adjacent the opening meters the rate of grain exiting the plenum. The rotating tower alleviates uneven drying due to sun, wind and other conditions to more evenly dry grain in the plenum. A cleaning device may be positioned adjacent the tower to clean the plenum as the tower rotates, thereby eliminating catwalks and other expensive equipment and devices used for cleaning stationary towers. | 12-13-2012 |

20150314930 | DISPENSING CAP - The non-limiting embodiments described herein disclose a container and a cap. The cap seals a container while providing a separate internal storage area for liquid or power contents. A seal disposed at the bottom of the cap ensures that the storage area contents remain fresh and sterile until the cap is rotated to release the seal. The clockwise rotation and threaded engagement of the storage area with the lower cylindrical collar and the upper cylindrical collar releases the seal from the bottom of the cap, while centrifugal forces within the cap urge the storage area contents into the container. | 11-05-2015 |

20110198076 | ADJUSTMENT OF MUD CIRCULATION WHEN EVALUATING A FORMATION - A method for controlling drilling fluid rate in a wellbore is disclosed. A drill string is disposed into the well and connected to a formation testing or sampling tool. Drilling fluid is circulated at a first rate through the drill string. Data related to the wellbore, a formation about the wellbore or the formation sampling tool is transmitted to a processor. Upon analysis of the data, the drilling fluid circulation rate is changed to a second rate that is different from the first rate. | 08-18-2011 |

20150347802 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SORTING IMAGE ACQUISITION SETTINGS FOR PATTERN STITCHING AND DECODING USING MULTIPLE CAPTURED IMAGES - Systems and methods are described for acquiring and decoding a plurality of images. First images are acquired and then processed to attempt to decode a symbol. Contributions of the first images to the decoding attempt are identified. An updated acquisition-settings order is determined based at least partly upon the contributions of the first images to the decoding attempt. Second images are acquired or processed based at least partly upon the updated acquisition-settings order. | 12-03-2015 |

20100268547 | Breakaway interfacing of radiological images with work orders - A breakaway interface between radiological information systems, imaging equipment and picture archive and communications systems has automated filtering and handling of multiple study work orders or affiliated work orders, while passing single study work orders through unaltered. The work orders are processed by the breakaway interface to consolidate multiple procedure or multiple study work orders into a single super order, which is then communicated, preferably using DICOM standard protocol, to an imaging machine. The imaging machine returns a single image sequence, and the breakaway interface will then break images away from the single image sequence into a plurality of grouped image sequences. The preferred grouping is based upon anatomical regions, and separate but adjacent anatomical regions will preferably share one or more images at the boundary between the adjacent regions. The exact number of shared images may preferably be preset at the system level. A number of different techniques for analyzing the single image sequence are proposed individually or in combination, including histogram analysis, peak finding techniques, moments of order analysis, evaluating information from one or more previous analyses, and evaluating image sequence series information to distinguish discrete imaging procedures. | 10-21-2010 |
