  • Patent number: 10960509
    Abstract: An illustrative embodiment of the present disclosure provides hand-held power tool which includes a housing, a motor, and an output spindle. The housing supports a motor having a rotor configured to rotate when the motor is supplied with power. The output spindle protrudes from an output end of the housing, and is functionally coupled to the rotor such that the output spindle rotates in response to a rotation of the rotor. The housing also supports at least one electrical accessory that is connectable to an external power connector located on the housing.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20060047441
    Abstract: A semantic gene classification and annotation system, method and computer program can utilize Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI) to identify conceptually related genes based on textual information in biomedical literature, including MEDLINE citations. In addition, term weights calculated from the usage of the gene terms in and across gene documents can be used to automatically assign gene aliases and extend gene function annotation based upon primary biomedical literature.

  • Patent number: 6547014
    Abstract: A pneumatic tool housing is provided having storage for an embedded electronic device. The pneumatic tool has a gas inlet for supplying a motive gas stream to the tool and an exhaust outlet for exhausting the motive gas stream from the tool. A compartment is provided for an electronic device wherein the compartment is in fluid communication with at least a portion of the motive gas stream. Also provided is a pneumatic tool housing having storage for an embedded electronic device with a compartment for an electronic device having at least one electrical lead wherein the compartment is covered by a component part of the pneumatic tool during operation.

  • Patent number: 6491113
    Abstract: A flat tilt valve for a pistol air tool, such as a pistol air screwdriver, which includes a flat tilt valve which is actuated substantially parallel to the sealing face of the flat tilt valve and which is positioned at the rear of the pistol air tool upstream of the air vane motor to create a common air path. Such a design allows the use of multiple air inlets in the same pistol air tool and makes it easy to mold or cast air inlets from both the bottom and the top and, if desired, the rear of the pistol air tool. The reconfiguration of the actuation rod on the tilt valve for a pistol air tool provides a slender profile and minimizes the overall length of the pistol air tool.
