  • Patent number: 10193488
    Abstract: An EMI filter is described that includes an input having first and second input terminals, and an output having first and second output terminals. A first conductive path is defined between the first input and output terminals, and a second conductive path is defined between the second input and output terminals. The EMI filter also includes a first choke device coupled across the first and second conductive paths, and a first Y capacitor including a first end and a second end opposite the first end, the first end coupled to the first conductive path downstream from the first choke device. The EMI filter further includes a second Y capacitor including a first end and a second end opposite the first end, the first end coupled to the second conductive path downstream from the first choke device, and a second choke device coupled to an inverter output.

  • Patent number: 10174768
    Abstract: A centrifugal blower assembly includes a housing defining an interior space and an impeller configured to channel an airflow within the interior space. The blower assembly also includes a motor coupled to the impeller and configured to rotate the impeller about an axis. The motor includes a motor shell and a motor mounting assembly coupled to the motor. The motor mounting assembly includes an end shield coupled to the motor and a plurality of mounting arms coupled to the end shield. At least a portion of at least one mounting arm extends axially along the motor such that a continuous radial gap is defined between the at least one mounting arm and the motor shell.

  • Publication number: 20060116893
    Abstract: A system is described for colleting and monitoring shipment data, wherein one or more service providers can enter into the system shipment data that is indicative of the attributes of a plurality of customer shipments as one or more customers forwards at least one customer shipment through a shipment-cycle. The shipment data reflects the attributes of each customer shipment and/or events occurring to at least one customer shipment during its shipment cycle. The collecting and monitoring system comprises a plurality of customer terminals, a web server, a central computer and a plurality of disparate shipment data input terminals, a plurality of customer terminals, a web server, a central computer and a plurality of disparate shipment data input terminals.
