Patent number: 7141891Abstract: An intelligent power distribution system including one or more intelligent power strips. The power strips can each include an elongated housing that may be adapted for mounting in an equipment rack. The housing can include a first end, a second end and plurality of power outlets mounted thereon. The first end can have a number of apertures that enable power and signal conductors to enter an interior region of the housing. The second end can include a first and a second communication port. The first communication port may be adapted to enable a computer to communicate with the power the strip. The second communication port may be adapted to enable the power the strip to be daisy chained with a second intelligent power strip. The power strip further includes power management circuitry that can power-on and power-off the power outlets in accordance with an operator defined sequence and delays.Type: GrantFiled: April 9, 2004Date of Patent: November 28, 2006Assignee: American Power Conversion CorporationInventors: John McNally, Daniel Rohr

Publication number: 20060251014Abstract: The present invention is related to a method and system for preventing high speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) transmission loss due to transmission gap in compressed mode in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). In accordance with one embodiment, a Node-B receives a compressed mode transmission gap schedule of a WTRU, identifies HSDPA transmission time intervals (TTIs) that are affected by the WTRU compressed mode transmission gap schedule and schedules the HSDPA transmissions not to overlap the WTRU compressed mode transmission gap schedule. In accordance with another embodiment, the Node-B may inform the HSDPA transmission schedule to a radio network controller (RNC) and the RNC coordinates the HSDPA transmission schedule and a compressed mode transmission gap schedule of the WTRU.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 12, 2005Publication date: November 9, 2006Applicant: InterDigital Technology CorporationInventors: Douglas Castor, Gregory Sternberg, John McNally

Publication number: 20060109421Abstract: The present invention provides a series of aspherical contact lenses, each lens having a first central optical zone on its anterior surface and a second central optical zone on its posterior surface. Both central optical zones are aspherical surfaces. The first central optical zone is designed to have a surface which provides a target optical power and an optical power profile selected from the group consisting of (1) a substantially constant optical power profile, (2) a power profile mimicking the optical power profile of a spherical lens with an identical targeted optical power, and (3) a power profile in which lens spherical aberration at 6 mm diameter is from about 0.65 diopter to about 1.8 diopters more negative than spherical aberration at 4 mm diameter.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 21, 2005Publication date: May 25, 2006Inventors: Ming Ye, Curtis McKenney, John McNally

Publication number: 20060051452Abstract: Molding equipment for an injection molding machine and particularly adapted for ejection of a molded article from a mold core. Mold cores borne by a rotatable turret are brought into position in respective cavities formed in one or more mold halves. The turret and mold halves are so configured that when one core is in registration with the cavity of that mold half, another core carrying a previously molded article is positioned away from the mold halves for ejection of the article. The equipment includes an ejector having cooperating, molded article-engaging portions, at least one of the portions being moveable in a first direction to close upon another portion of the ejector to encounter the molded article, and the ejector portions, when closed, being moveable in a second, different direction to expel the molded articles from the cores upon which they were molded.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2003Publication date: March 9, 2006Applicant: Advance Tool, Inc.Inventors: John Woller, John McNally, Wayne Shakal

Publication number: 20050217223Abstract: A biohazard safety enclosure or workstation particularly adapted for enclosing automated instrumentation includes a chamber defined by front, back, top, bottom, and opposed end walls; a HEPA filter across an air inlet opening into the chamber, and an airflow means to direct air horizontally through at least part of the chamber between the end walls. Preferably, the workstation has a second HEPA filter across an air outlet opening in the work chamber, with the airflow means including a conduit extending from the air outlet opening to the air inlet opening. A fan draws air through the conduit. All of the air can be exhausted from the workstation, or a part of the filtered air can be exhausted from the workstation and replenished through a make-up air inlet into the chamber.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 23, 2005Publication date: October 6, 2005Inventors: Raymond Ryan, John McNally
