Patent number: 9685730Abstract: A connection arrangement for a floor power distribution system is provided herein. The connection arrangement comprises a hub arrangement including a hub housing and an electrical connector, the hub housing configured to abut a floor. An adapter is configured to engage the hub housing of the hub arrangement and a seal member is positioned between a downwardly facing surface of the adapter and an upwardly facing surface of the hub housing, wherein a vertical downward force exerted on the adapter compresses the seal member to form a substantially watertight seal between the adapter and the hub housing.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2015Date of Patent: June 20, 2017Assignee: Steelcase Inc.Inventors: David K. Jones, Jamie Payne, Cody Jay Holstege, Mark Andrew Schneider

Publication number: 20170105801Abstract: Laser energy delivery devices and methods are provided. A laser energy delivery device may include a housing, and a coupling is carried by the housing and adapted to couple to a laser energy generator. A sheath is carried by the housing, and the sheath includes a distal end adapted to be disposed in the subject. A plurality of transport members are carried by the sheath, and the plurality of transport members are adapted to receive laser energy at the coupling, transmit laser energy through the sheath, and deliver laser energy to the subject. A fluid-driven motor is carried by the housing and adapted to be driven upon receiving a fluid from a fluid source. A drive wire is carried by the sheath and eccentrically coupled to the distal end of the sheath, and the drive wire is adapted to be rotatably driven by the fluid-driven motor and rotates to eccentrically rotate the distal end of the sheath.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 28, 2016Publication date: April 20, 2017Inventors: Kenneth P.

Publication number: 20140081252Abstract: Methods and systems for separating an object, such as a lead, from formed tissue are provided. Specifically, a tissue slitting device is configured to engage patient formed tissue at a slitting engagement point. While the object is subjected to a first traction force, the tissue slitting device is caused to move further into the engaged tissue and slit the tissue past the point of engagement. The slitting device causes the tissue to separate along an axial direction of the length of the formed tissue and releases at least some of the force containing the object. The methods and systems are well suited for use in cardiac pacing or defibrillator lead explant procedures.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2013Publication date: March 20, 2014Applicant: The Spectranetics CorporationInventors: Wade A. BOWE, George Woodrow Burton, Paul Joseph Dalby, Richard Lofton Fiser, Ryan Michael Sotak, Blaine Andrew Schneider

Patent number: 8529657Abstract: A vent for an axle housing includes a first body portion and a second body portion. The first body portion has a plurality of pores defined therethrough. The first body portion defines a first cavity. The second body portion has a conical portion that extends between a throat and a neck portion that defines an opening. The second body portion defines a second cavity that fluidly connects with the first cavity. The vent permits air to pass from the axle housing, through the plurality of pores in the first body portion, through the first and second cavities, and out the opening of the neck portion while concurrently inhibiting egress of lubricant from the axle housing.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2011Date of Patent: September 10, 2013Assignee: American Axle & Manufacturing, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Lee Kincaid, Mark Andrew Schneider

Publication number: 20100299140Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for identifying documents of interest. A profile of a subscriber is created based on information obtained about the subscriber. Subscriber-interest determination rules are used to identify potential topics of interest of the subscriber based on the subscriber's profile as well as based on external knowledge sources. Each potential interest of the subscriber may be represented by a pointer that references a concept. Additionally, concepts in the documents published by the publishers are identified. A comparison may be made between the concepts identified in the documents published by the publishers with those concepts representing the potential topics of interests of the subscriber. Those documents with matching concepts may then be identified as potentially being of interest for the subscriber. In this manner, documents of interest are more accurately identified for the document seeker.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 20, 2010Publication date: November 25, 2010Applicant: CYCORP, INC.Inventors: Michael John Witbrock, Lawrence Seth Lefkowitz, David Andrew Schneider, Kevin Blake Shepard, Marko Grobelnik, Blaz Fortuna, Dunja Mladenic
