  • Patent number: 11962030
    Abstract: An integrated, unitary battery pack may be formed and used as part of the structural support for a vehicle frame. The unitary battery pack includes arrays cells having all positive and negative electrical terminals aligned in-plane on a common face of the product assembly. The unitary battery pack includes cooling components for passively or actively cooling the cell arrays. The unitary battery pack is encased in a potting material that allows that forms part of the structure support for the unitary battery pack. The unitary batter pack may be integrated into the vehicle with or without additional support structures.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8227389
    Abstract: A lubricant additive produced by various processes, including mixing an organophosphate and an organofluorine compound, reacting an organophosphate and an organofluorine compound, reacting a fluorinated organophosphate and an organofluorine compound (with or without molybendum disulfide), or reacting an organophosphate, a metal halide and an organofluorine compound (with or without molybendum disulfide), to produce a reaction mixture comprising the lubricant additive. Also, a lubricant produced by various processes, including mixing an organophosphate and an organofluorine compound, reacting an organophosphate and an organofluorine compound, reacting a fluorinated organophosphate and an organofluorine compound (with or without molybendum disulfide), or reacting an organophosphate, a metal halide and an organofluorine compound (with or without molybendum disulfide), and adding at least a portion of the reaction mixture to a lubricant base.

  • Patent number: 6802218
    Abstract: A level detection apparatus includes a wave guide or discrete sensors mounted in an outer flexible housing. A weight is attached to a distal end of the outer housing. A biasing spring is coupled to the opposite end of the outer housing for exerting a force on the outer housing to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction of the outer housing to maintain the weight in close proximity to the bottom surface of an enclosure in which the apparatus is mounted.
