Publication number: 20090301295Abstract: A piston arrangement includes a piston which is pin-ointed to a sliding block. The sliding block is molded directly onto the piston by injection molding so that no separate process step is required. The piston itself is part of the injection mold, an extremely precise fit can be guaranteed in the hinging area of the sliding block to the piston, which fit permits a reliable connection even when the piston surface is located in the connecting area outside the given tolerance, because by directly molding the sliding blocks onto the piston the tolerances are compensated.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2005Publication date: December 10, 2009Inventor: Brian Kane

Patent number: 7509536Abstract: A method and system for error handling by incorporating functionality to identify errors at two levels of context. A first level providing the user with an error message, and the second level identifying where in the process the error occurred. The method and system comprise a reusable piece of code and building blocks providing universal use of a variety of applications that captures errors at different levels of context. Additionally, the method and system takes the building blocks and pushes the functionality out to the Internet.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2006Date of Patent: March 24, 2009Assignee: Travelers Property Casualty Corp.Inventors: Brian Kane, Sandra Stratton, Nancy Benigni

Publication number: 20080019464Abstract: A spectrum analysis engine (SAGE) that comprises a spectrum analyzer component, a signal detector component, a universal signal synchronizer component and a snapshot buffer component. The spectrum analyzer component generates data representing a real-time spectrogram of a bandwidth of radio frequency (RF) spectrum. The signal detector detects signal pulses in the frequency band and outputs pulse event information entries output, which include the start time, duration, power, center frequency and bandwidth of each detected pulse. The signal detector also provides pulse trigger outputs which may be used to enable/disable the collection of information by the spectrum analyzer and the snapshot buffer components. An alternative pulse detection module is provided that tracks signal pulses by comparing peak data from successive FFT cycles with existing signal pulse data that is derived from comparing peak data for prior FFT cycles.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 30, 2007Publication date: January 24, 2008Applicant: COGNIO, INC.Inventors: David Kloper, Brian Kane, Gary Sugar

The framework includes at least two vertical posts and at least two structural beams rigidly, yet detachably interconnecting the vertical posts. Connectors secure the beams to the posts, such that the partition system can be assembled and disassembled manually. The partition system may include utility troughs shaped to retain wires, cabling, etc. therein to provide power and/or communication to the system. The utility troughs have opposite ends shaped to be detachably mounted to the posts.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 12, 2007Publication date: October 4, 2007Inventors: Michael Waalkes, Marcus Pressnell, Mark Slager, Michael Shields, Brian Kane, Robin Christopher, Dennis Boyle, Charles Seiber, Peter Skillman, Joseph Chang, Richard Hand

Patent number: 6962076Abstract: A positioning system is provided for use in a wind tunnel that results in accurate and dynamic orientation for a model while reducing aerodynamic interference. The system includes a pitch-yaw sleeve having a generally cylindrical shape and a torque tube disposed askew within the sleeve and rotatable about its longitudinal axis to drive a shaft. The shaft is generally elongated and crooked. The sting, to which a model is affixed, is rotatably attached to a distal end of the shaft. Rotation of the pitch-yaw tube and/or the pitch-yaw sleeve provides precise pitch and yaw orientation of the model, and rotation of the sting relative to the shaft provides precise roll orientation.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2003Date of Patent: November 8, 2005Assignee: Swift Engineering, Inc.Inventors: Mark Page, Neil Roberts, Tom Huschilt, Brian Kane, John Winkler
