Publication number: 20250085359Abstract: Disclosed are power distribution systems and methods in which a power distribution unit (PDU) includes a residual current monitor (RCM) to detect the presence of downstream leakage current in the PDU. The RCM can include a current sensor with a core that has power conductors passing through the core and drive windings about the core. Drive circuitry of the RCM produce alternating drive signals through the drive windings to drive the core into and out of positive and negative saturation. Sensing circuitry of the RCM produce a response signal that is filtered by a high-order current signal filter to isolate characteristics of the downstream leakage current.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2023Publication date: March 13, 2025Inventors: Swen Anderson, William Harold Avery, Jr., Thomas Hsueh, Thomas Lauer, Alex Lee, Stefan Oebser, Michael Suchoff

Publication number: 20240181599Abstract: A water atomizing unit that affixes to a blade sharpening device to cool, lubricate and clean the blade and sharpening disc. The unit pumps atomized water vertically downward and funnels the atomized fluid into a linear spray. The length and shape of the linear spray pattern is set by an elliptical array of bristles affixed to the bottom of the funnel. The spray deposits the clean water uniformly onto the blade and disc, keeping the blade temperature uniform across its length and width. The elliptical bristle array allows atomized water droplets to condense onto the bristles so as to define an elliptical ring of larger dripping water drops. The unit uses ultrasonic atomization in which the water is crushed and torn into small droplets by the energy of ultrasonic oscillation. The ultrasonic atomization is accomplished by a single piezo ultrasonic atomization device powered by a USB configured DC power supply.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2022Publication date: June 6, 2024Inventor: Alex Lee

Publication number: 20230185885Abstract: A digital rights management (DRM) server receives data associated with a device security profile (DSP) from a content owner device. The DSP specifies requirements for client devices to access content items associated with a content owner. The requirements differ based on a resolution level of the accessed content items. The DRM server stores the DSP and an indication of the content owner. The DRM server receives, from a content server storing the content items associated with the content owner, a pull request for DSP updates. The DRM server transmits the DSP to the content server in response to the pull request. The DSP causes the content server to limit client devices that access the content items according to the DSP.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2022Publication date: June 15, 2023Inventors: Hamid Ali, Alex Lee

Patent number: 11446556Abstract: A lightweight compression molded multicolor golf grip having at least a first section and a second section of differing colors and composed of elastomer compounds joined by cross-linking across a sharply defined cross-color interface having an interface transition zone beyond which there is no mixing of the colors. The grip has a soft feel and unique compression characteristics achieved in some embodiments through the controlled use of an expanding blowing agent in a rubber compound. Achieving the sharply defined cross-color interface is due in part to the use of complementary geometries at opposing interface edges to increase the stability of the interface and reduce the flow during molding associated with the increased viscosity of low density rubber compounds, promote cross-linking of the sections, and better distribute and control the consolidation pressure.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 2020Date of Patent: September 20, 2022Assignee: Eaton Intelligent Power LimitedInventors: Stephen James Davis, Alex Lee Walls, Wen-Chen Su, Aaron Joseph Michaud, Edward Wang

Patent number: 10987557Abstract: A flexible elastomeric grip for the shaft of a golf club having an end cap with a cavity for receiving a sensor and/or counterweight. The cap has a durometer hardness equal to or greater than the tubular body portion of the grip and a flange sized to match the larger diameter of the body, with a sleeve engaging the inner periphery of the larger end of the tubular body. In one version of the cap, the sleeve portion is extended in length and has stiffening ribs on the outer surface of the sleeve; and, in another version, the sleeve is shorter and may also have stiffening ribs on the outer surface of the sleeve. In another version of the cap, fibrous material is disposed in the flange and sleeve to increase lateral stiffness without increasing durometer.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2020Date of Patent: April 27, 2021Assignee: EATON INTELLIGENT POWER LIMITEDInventors: Stephen James Davis, Gregory William Cavill, Joshua Cliff Stokes, Alex Lee Walls, Andy Allan Arrington
