Patent number: 9131610Abstract: A layer of material having a low thermal conductivity is coated over a substrate. A film of conductive ink is then coated over the layer of material having the low thermal conductivity, and then sintered. The film of conductive ink does not absorb as much energy from the sintering as the film of conductive ink coated over the layer of material having the low thermal conductivity. The layer of material having the low thermal conductivity may be a polymer, such as polyimide.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2013Date of Patent: September 8, 2015Assignees: PEN Inc., Ishihara Chemical Co., Ltd.Inventors: Zvi Yaniv, Mohshi Yang, Peter B. Laxton

Publication number: 20130185155Abstract: Systems and methods of enabling cross-promotion of products and services during a purchase transaction are provided. An offer management system provides contribution offers to a purchaser in response to a request for discounts for a product. Upon acceptance of the offers by the purchaser, the offer management system causes funds to be transferred from one or more contributor payment accounts to a retail point-of-sale system. These funds are combined with funds from the purchaser to provide the full price to the retailer for the product. The offer management system monitors purchaser activity to determine if the purchaser later complies with conditions of the offers. In some embodiments, the offer management system may be used by traditional point-of-sale systems without requiring special configuration to work with the offer management system.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2013Publication date: July 18, 2013Applicant: Big Red Pen, Inc.Inventor: Big Red Pen, Inc.

Patent number: 5785443Abstract: A hand-held implement, is provided with a body including an elongated snap-fit post and an elongated snap-fit cartridge housing. The snap-fit cartridge housing includes a coaxial recessed groove and readily snap-fits into the body of the pen by the resilient engagement of the tip of the snap-fit post into the coaxial recessed groove of the snap-fit cartridge housing. The cartridge housing can be readily removed from the body of the pen and replaced with another cartridge housing inserted in its place. The body of the implement has external surfaces which define contours which match and ergonomically engage the surfaces of a user's thumb and fingers when the user grasps the implement, so as to provide a large surface area of contact between the user's hand and the implement.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 1993Date of Patent: July 28, 1998Assignee: Evo Pen Inc.Inventor: Burton S.
