Patent number: 10091584Abstract: In some embodiments, portable speakers can be small and lightweight and can communicate with one or more audio device over wired or wireless connections. In some embodiments, portable speakers achieve reduced complexity as compared to typical high fidelity systems (e.g., by including a reduced number of speaker drivers and amplifiers), while still maintaining high fidelity stereo audio playback, thereby achieving both portability and high quality audio capability. For instance, certain implementations of the speaker include two primary speakers disposed on opposing faces of the speaker enclosure (e.g., full or mid-range drivers) and two tweeters, also disposed on opposing faces. Primary speakers can be disposed on respective ends of the housing and each can output a different stereo channel. Each tweeter can be positioned on different face of the housing. The speaker system according to some embodiments generates a mono high frequency signal to drive the tweeters.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2017Date of Patent: October 2, 2018Assignee: Fugoo CorporationInventors: Frank Barone, Dennis Stone

Patent number: 7939052Abstract: Administration of U-II to rats caused an increase in the redness or the skin temperature of the ear of the rats. The increase was inhibited by compounds that decease the biological activity of the U-II/UT receptor. Thus, the present invention provides methods of measuring the biological activity of an U-II receptor by monitoring the redness or the skin temperature of the ear of an animal, and the use of the methods to test compounds for their abilities to increase or decrease the biological activity of an U-II receptor.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2006Date of Patent: May 10, 2011Assignee: Janssen Pharmaceutica NVInventors: Robert Schulingkamp, Jianshen Qi, Raymond Colburn, Dennis Stone, Christopher Van Besien, Lisa Minor, Patricia Andrade-Gordon, Bruce Damiano

Patent number: 6763668Abstract: Rather than having a frame into which, or upon which, an air conditioning system is mounted, a bus rooftop air conditioning module has a unibody which is formed partially of structural members interconnected to the tube sheets of the evaporator and condenser coils to form a structural body which supports the components of the system. In this way the coil tube sheets combine with other structural members to form the supporting body.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2003Date of Patent: July 20, 2004Assignee: Carrier CorporationInventors: Peter R. Bushnell, Robert C. Reimann, Christopher Repice, Mark Colton, Xuqiang Liao, Gawain Mundy, Stephen Stopyra, Belin Czechowicz, Suresh Duraisamy, Timothy R. Campbell, Dennis Stone

Patent number: 6567271Abstract: An electronic system comprising a plurality of circuit boards and/or drives mounted in a stack within a housing. Interconnectors are provided between the circuit boards and/or drives to connect the circuit boards and/or drives and to provide vertical separations between the circuit boards and/or drives. A cooling fan is slidably disposed adjacent a wall of the housing to create a horizontal stream of air that flows through the separations and over the top and bottom surfaces of the circuit boards and/or the drives. This provides for convective cooling in an efficient manner, while minimizing the profile of the electronic system.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2001Date of Patent: May 20, 2003Assignee: Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc.Inventors: Dennis Stone, William Vu, Ryan Tze, Ralph Laing

Patent number: 5104374Abstract: An electronic controller connected to an electronic infusion pump which regulates the rate at which a drug is infused into a person. A magnetic card reader reads from a magnetic card, the name of the drug, the stock solution, concetration recommended dosage rate and warnings. The weight and the desired dosage rate of the patient is fed by a touch pad to the controller. The controller automatically computes the infusion rate and notifies via a display whether the desired rate exceeds the recommended rate. Also displayed are details about the drug, the length of time the patient has been infused, the amount of drug infused, and the dosage rate since the last rate change.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 1990Date of Patent: April 14, 1992Inventors: Jay R.
