Abstract: An electric machine having a housing assembly and a stator assembly coupled with a rotor assembly. A plurality of MOSFET assemblies are operably coupled with the stator assembly. The MOSFET assemblies are disposed in openings defined by the housing assembly and include a carrier that is secured within the openings with a press-fit engagement. The carrier defines an interior space extending the full longitudinal length of the carrier and includes at least one planar mounting surface wherein a MOSFET is mounted on the planar mounting surface. In some embodiments, the housing assembly includes an aluminum heat exchange member that defines an opening in which a MOSFET assembly is installed. The carrier may be formed by extruding copper and include longitudinally extending ribs that engage the housing assembly in press fit engagement. A method of manufacturing an electric machine is also disclosed.

Abstract: Provided are technical solutions for preparing and using a cache of social media post data. In an example, a database of social media posts is queried for matching posts and respective metadata for each matching post. Index item data describing one or more respective attributes of each matching post is gathered. For each of the matching posts, the respective index item data is combined with the respective metadata to form combined data. The matching posts and the combined data for each matching post are stored in the cache of social media post data. The cache can be indexed. The cache index can be subsequently queried to provide, for further analysis, social media data which matches specific attributes.

Abstract: An arc fault sensor disposed on a circuit board proximate to a current carrying trace. The arc fault sensor includes a magnetic flux concentrator (MFC). The MFC includes a first flange and a second flange that are joined by a center post. Each of the first and second flanges have a cross sectional area that is larger than the center post. A sense coil winding is wound around the center post. The arc fault sensor generates an output voltage that is proportional to a rate of change of current in the current carrying conductor. For a given diameter of the sense coil winding, the output voltage is enhanced by the ratio of the cross-sectional areas of the flanges relative to the cross-sectional area of the center post. Methods of manufacturing and utilizing the aforementioned arc fault sensor are also disclosed.

Abstract: A drug dispensing assembly for dispensing solid drug delivery vessels from a bottle includes a first layer having a vessel exit passage. A second layer is operatively connected to the first layer, and includes a vessel entry passage horizontally offset from the exit passage. A vessel dispensing layer is positioned between the first and second layers, is movable with respect to the first and second layers, and includes a holding chamber sized to receive the vessel. The holding chamber is movable from a first loading position in which the holding chamber is aligned with the entry passage and is horizontally offset from the exit passage to receive the vessel, to a second dispensing position in which the holding chamber is aligned with the exit passage and is horizontally offset from the entry passage to dispense the vessel through the exit passage. The holding chamber may be configured with a fulcrum and a ramp.

Abstract: Space- and cost-efficient antenna apparatus and methods of making and using the same. In one embodiment, the antenna is formed using a deposition process, whereby a conductive fluid or other material is deposited directly on one or more interior components of a host device (e.g., cellular phone or tablet computer). The antenna can be formed in a substantially three-dimensional “loop” shape, and obviates several costly and environmentally unfriendly processing steps and materials associated with prior art antenna manufacturing approaches.

Abstract: Processes and devices useful in the application of coatings (14) to the interior of tubes (10) are described. Such processes (40, 400) may include applying a layer (20) of coating fluid (18) to the internal surface (16) of the tube (10) and passing a smoothing member (22) through the tube (10) at a distance from the internal surface (16). The viscosity of the coating fluid (18) may be selected so that the layer (20) of coating fluid (18) has a thickness substantially equal to or in excess of a predetermined wet film thickness (Twf) correlated to a desired final thickness (Tf) of the coating (14). The distance between the smoothing member (22) and the internal surface (16) may substantially correspond to the predetermined wet film thickness (Twf). The smoothing member (22) may smooth the coating fluid (18) and remove coating fluid (18) in excess of the wet film thickness (Twf) from the internal surface (16).
