Abstract: A dispensing display assembly is provided which can deter the theft of goods without prohibitively restricting the access to goods. The display is made from corrugated paper or a thin walled plastic.
Abstract: A machine for tracking the sun's movement and concentrating sunlight consists of a main frame which pivots in the north and south direction on a base having conduit for a heat medium (a liquid usually of the Glycol family the main frame supports the mirror frame that pivots 360 degrees East to West allowing the mirror to focus the sunlight onto the conduit heating the liquid medium producing a very high and concentrated amount of heat during the entire daylight period and can be used for a small business or residential heating. An optional prism can be attached to the mirror frame to focus sun rays onto the conduit for added heat.
Abstract: An improved rotating head that utilizes a box assembly that stores at least one locking element that allows for movement of the locking balls within the box assembly such that a liner inserted into the box assembly biases the locking elements to a locked position to couple the box assembly and the outer barrel. An integrated wear surface of the present invention seals the bearing elements to extend the life of the rotating head and reduce downtime caused by necessary maintenance of the rotating head.
Abstract: A direct drive cascode using a gate signal driven D-mode JFET connected in series with a power-enable-signal driven E-Mode JFET to provide a quick-operation high-temperature normally-off cascode configuration with low noise characteristics. The E-mode JFET may have the E-mode gate connected to ground with a pull down power element or resistor.

Abstract: A housing for concealing a RFID system is provided including one or more radio frequency antennas, one or more RFID readers, and a central frame. The central frame is attached and concealed within body of a store mannequin providing an exterior shell that is aesthetically pleasing and that can be dressed in store merchandise, thus advertising the store goods and protecting the structure from damage.
Abstract: The method of construction of seamless countertops of the present invention enables the user to advantageously combine cabinet making with metalworking and powder coating to produce novel seamless countertops. The improved countertops are constructed by making a template of the countertop to create a countertop pattern. Discrete metallic sheets are then shaped according to the countertop pattern and joined together by welding to form a metal core. The metal core is then smoothed and powder coated to form a unitary, seamless countertop.
Abstract: A multiple eye paintball loader motor controller having a container and an outfeed tube to direct paintballs to a marker. Ball sensors are in the loader outfeed tube to predict incoming paintballs and the rate of supply. A controller is connected to the ball sensor to sense the incoming balls to control or adapt the operation of the loader in accordance with the supply rate. Secondary sensors may also be utilized to provide additional information. Secondary sensors may be placed in the outfeed tube, placed to provide supplemental side information, or a combination of these placements. Various placements provide feed rate information and may also detect jammed ball positions in the transition area at the end of the outfeed tube.

Abstract: A bead lock tire rim with a supplemental tread on the bead lock to protect the rim and the bolts. The tread extends past the edge of the rim to keep the tire from being split and the side area of the supplemental tread protects the bead lock while providing enhanced traction to the sidewall of the rim. A rim using a rounded projection to eliminate tire cutting and recessed nut locations with secure faceting is also provided for simple field repairs and long term durability.
Abstract: The present invention relates to an adjustable hook with a rotating hook secured to a locking plate within a housing. The rotating hook is adapted to move within the housing allowing the orientation of the hook to be modified into a desired position. Once the desired position is achieved, the hook then locks in place.
Abstract: A display assembly is provided using an interior frame with an arcuate wrapped exterior having an advertising element. The frame is made from corrugated paper or a thin walled plastic.
