  • Patent number: 10702054
    Abstract: A system and related apparatus and method for delivering fluid to and from a bottom center of a floor-operation pad on a rotary-motion flooring machine while the pad is rotationally operating on a horizontal underfoot surface, the system comprising a fluid-delivery hub comprising: a plurality of fluid entry openings disposed on an outside circumferential surface thereof; an equal plurality of fluid flow channels commencing at the fluid entry openings, angling downward and inward from the fluid entry openings toward a center of the fluid-delivery hub, and terminating at an equal plurality of fluid exit openings proximate a bottom center of the fluid-delivery hub; and a floor-operation interface at a bottom of the fluid-delivery hub configured to directly or indirectly attach a floor-operation pad thereto, for operating on a floor.

  • Patent number: 8843882
    Abstract: A system and method capable of summarizing data for all of a software company's engineers, repos (projects) and the entire organization so the executives and managers of the organization can make better decisions. The system is configured to fetch and mine data related to the end-user's organization, projects, people, source code and source code metadata and use proprietary algorithms to calculate various scores such as Velocity, Churn and Skill. The end-user is able to see the various scores, including a Master Score, for various contexts such as the Organization, repos (projects) or individuals (engineers). The score provides a CTO or VP of Engineering, for instance, with a quick health status that would otherwise be unknown or very time-consuming to obtain.

  • Publication number: 20050090190
    Abstract: A device and method to convert ordinary rotary motion of input frequency ? into a composite motion with the same primary frequency ? plus an eccentric motion at a higher frequency ? enables a low speed rotary input to drive a higher-speed eccentric motion. A preferred embodiment enables an existing rotary motion machine to be easily adapted to provide compound rotary and eccentric motion. Optional attachments are used to collect waste products generated by rotary motion machine.

  • Patent number: 4102678
    Abstract: A method for coating a metal wire with a thin layer of a second powdered metal. A metal flake powder having a residual surface lubricant from a prior milling operation is placed in the lubricant holding box of a conventional draw bench. The wire to be coated is passed through the metal flake powder and drawn through a conventional drawing die to provide a green-coat wire having a mechanically adherent metal flake powder coating. The green-coat wire is subsequently sintered to metallurgically bond the coating to the wire surface.
