Publication number: 20190282930Abstract: This disclosure generally relates to perforated filter media and coalescing filter elements utilizing perforated filter media. One example coalescing filter element is structured to separate a dispersed phase from a continuous phase of a mixture. The filter media includes a first coalescing layer. The first coalescing layer includes a first filter media. The first filter media has a plurality of pores and a first perforation. Each of the plurality of pores is smaller than the first perforation. The first perforation is formed in the first filter media and extends through the first filter media. The plurality of pores are structured to capture a portion of the dispersed phase. The first perforation is structured to facilitate the transmission of coalesced drops of the dispersed phase through the first coalescing layer such that the coalesced drops of the dispersed phase are separated from the portion of the dispersed phase captured in the first coalescing layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 19, 2017Publication date: September 19, 2019Applicant: Cummins Filtration IP, Inc.Inventors: Mark T. WIECZOREK, Joshua Ryan HENDRIXSON, Barry Mark VERDEGAN

Patent number: 10374707Abstract: A Light Emitting Diode (LED) based illumination device authenticates a mobile electronics device on a lighting communications network. The mobile electronic device may request a communications link on the lighting communications network and detect modulated illumination light emitted from the LED based illumination device. The modulated light may include an optical code. The mobile electronic device may determine the optical code from the modulated illumination light and communicate an indication of the optical code to the LED based illumination device. The LED based illumination device may determine if the indication of the optical code is correct and provide, in response, a communication link to the mobile electronics device on the lighting communications network.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2017Date of Patent: August 6, 2019Assignee: Xicato, Inc.Inventors: Martin Emil Mueller, Barry Mark Loveridge, Jeffrey P.

Patent number: 10356881Abstract: An LED based illumination device includes a receiver and a transmitter for communications adhering to a lighting control communications protocol and a high speed communications protocol. The LED based illumination device may be part of a lighting control network, wherein the data transmission rate of the high speed communications protocol is more than twice that of the lighting control communications protocol. The lighting control network may be coupled to a digital communications gateway, including a digital communications interface configured to be coupled to a network operating in accordance with an internet protocol and a lighting control network interface coupled to the lighting control network. A processor determines a summary status value of the LED based illumination device based on information stored in memory of the digital communications gateway. The digital communications gateway may periodically transmit the time of day to the LED based illumination device over the lighting control network.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2018Date of Patent: July 16, 2019Assignee: Xicato, Inc.Inventors: Gerard Harbers, Barry Mark Loveridge

Patent number: 10278248Abstract: A light control and data interface module (LCDIM) is used to control an LED based illumination device. The LCDIM includes a transceiver that receives communication signals from one or more sensor modules. The signals may include an indication of an identity of the one or more sensor modules and elapsed time since a triggering event was detected. One or more processors are configured to receive the communication signal and to determine a delay time to trigger a lighting control response. The one or more processors are further configured to cause the transmission of a command signal to a power converter coupled to the LCDIM to implement the lighting control response.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2018Date of Patent: April 30, 2019Assignee: Xicato, Inc.Inventors: Gerard Harbers, Barry Mark Loveridge, Martin Emil Mueller, Jeffrey P.
