  • Patent number: 11950512
    Abstract: An acoustic imaging system coupled to a sensing plate to define an imaging surface. The acoustic imaging system includes an array of piezoelectric acoustic transducers coupled to the sensing plate opposite the imaging surface and formed using a thin-film manufacturing process over an application-specific integrated circuit that, in turn, is configured to leverage the array of piezoelectric actuators to generate an image of an object at least partially wetting to the imaging surface.

  • Publication number: 20200391098
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to a motorized skateboard. Embodiments allow users to utilize a power supply, such as a rechargeable battery pack, that is remote with respect to the skateboard. Embodiments can have the battery mounted on, under, partially or wholly enclosed within, and/or integral with the skateboard deck. Embodiments can have a removable and interchangeable motor mount, which attaches to the hanger to align the motor with the drive train. The drive wheel adaptor (hub) allows the user to modify standard skateboard wheels to use as drive wheels for the electric skateboard. The strength of the bond between the drive hub and the wheel enables the skateboard to utilize more torque without failure. Embodiments can allow users to have wiring connections at the front and/or back of the skateboard deck. Board-integrated wiring techniques can also be utilized. The electronics can be attached using brackets that fit the industry standard bolt pattern.

  • Patent number: 7971847
    Abstract: According to the present invention, a rook rack and a system of multiple roof racks of the present invention may be used to securely support equipment, such as, but not limited to, a satellite, to the roof of a portable shelter. The roof rack of the present invention generally comprises a crossbar and a pair of side supports coupled to each end thereof. A roof rack system of the present invention comprises at least two of these roof racks. The present invention further relates to a method of securing equipment to the roof of a portable shelter. This method comprises first providing a roof rack, and assembling and securing the same to the roof. After the roof rack system is secured to the roof of the portable shelter, the equipment, or an equipment platform, is placed on the crossbars and secured in its position by securing means, such as one or more clamps.
