Abstract: The present invention relates to prohibiting water ingress in enclosures designed to protect electronics or other stored objects from damage that would occur if the protected stored objects were submerged in water or other liquids. More particularly the present invention, a water ingress prevention enclosure eliminates the need for watertight doors and other sealing gaskets by utilizing an opening in the lowest portion of the enclosure to allow rising water to pressurize the ambient gas trapped in the enclosure thus forming a pressurized chamber to which liquid cannot rise. Embodiments of the invention include a system, apparatus, method and computer implemented code to enable monitoring and storage of one or more stored objects in a liquid-free environment.

Abstract: An enclosure for integrating distributed energy sources, provides a compact enclosure that fits within a utility workspace and enclosures that can be mechanically coupled together, placed in parallel or in a series.

Abstract: The “Vehicle Tracking System and Game” integrates a GPS navigation system with invention specific hardware and software. A user installs a mobile unit on his race vehicle which features software allowing a processor connected to the electronics of the user's vehicle to communicate with an inertial navigation system which collects racing information, with a remote database which features software for various interactive real-time or virtual GPS Racing Games and processing the racing information of all users, and with a GPS system in real time. The mobile unit collects, processes, saves and transmits user specific racing information continuously throughout the game. This racing information is data of racing performance parameters specific to the game subscribed for by the user. The database processes and evaluates the received racing information, offsets this information with the users' basic input data and compares the information of all users.

Abstract: A gasketless waterproof ingress prevention enclosure for electronics wherein the enclosure does not rely on traditional sealing means to restrain water. The enclosure includes a five-sided open bottom air tight cavity comprising a liquid volume fluidly coupled to a gas volume creating a gas-fluid coupling layer, rising in elevation within cavity. Changing cavity pressure equal to rising compressed liquid pressure prevents exposure to said electronic enclosure components to a maximum design depth of 15 feet of water below surface level or a column height of 15 feet of water over the bottom of the enclosure bell bottom, independent of the enclosure's distance below surface grade. The apparatus forms a telescoped and recessed inner chassis assembly in its fully closed position. The prevention enclosure also provides a method for sealing including the steps of gasketless water prevention, electronics mounting, and water damage component protection.

Changing cavity pressure equal to rising compressed liquid pressure prevents exposure to said electronic enclosure components to a maximum design depth of 15 feet of water below surface level or a column height of 15 feet of water over the bottom of the enclosure bell bottom, independent of the enclosure's distance below surface grade. The apparatus forms a telescoped and recessed inner chassis assembly in its fully closed position. The prevention enclosure also provides a method for sealing comprising the steps of gasketless water prevention, electronics mounting, and water damage component protection.
