Patent number: 6056311Abstract: An elongate board which produces increased lift when moved through a fluid such as air or water. The elongate board includes a main body with an opening in its central region. A plurality of transverse wing sections are mounted in tandem in the central opening along the longitudinal axis of the main body. Between each wing section is an open slot allowing the fluid to flow over the wing sections, creating a lifting force on the elongate board. The elongate board may be utilized in many different sports requiring the use of a ski or board, such as water skiing, snow skiing, surfboarding, snow boarding, and sky surfboarding.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 1998Date of Patent: May 2, 2000Assignee: Dal Research Enterprises, Inc.Inventor: Kam Fong Leung

Patent number: 5519607Abstract: An automated health benefit processing system. The system includes a database and three processors. The database includes, for each geographic area and for each medical procedures for which a benefit is payable, the benefit payable to an insured if the procedure is prescribed and performed, a list of providers available to perform the designated procedure, and each provider's charge for performing the designated procedure. The first processor generates a treatment plan concerning the insured that specifies the identity of the insured and the medical procedures to be performed on the insured. The first processor also accesses the database to retrieve the information stored in the database under the medical procedures to be performed and to append this information to the treatment plan. The second processor generates a treatment record specifying the medical procedures actually performed by a provider and the provider's actual charge therefor.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 1993Date of Patent: May 21, 1996Assignee: Research Enterprises, Inc.Inventor: Jack J.
