Publication number: 20160178084Abstract: An air compressor having a pressure-setting regulator for setting a regulator outlet pressure without a separate pressure gauge. A pressure controlling regulator knob can be rotated to set and control the regulator outlet pressure selected from a scale of set outlet pressures. The pressure control system can utilize a single-turn pressure control knob which can be used to select any pressure from a range of outlet pressures which can be produced by the regulator a partial or full rotation of the regulator knob. A compressor can use the positive control pressure regulation system, be free of an outlet pressure gauge, and allow a user to select an outlet pressure from a range of outlet pressures by rotating the single-turn regulator knob to select a set outlet pressure from the scale of set outlet pressures.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2015Publication date: June 23, 2016Applicant: Black & Decker Inc.Inventors: Gary D.

Publication number: 20160138578Abstract: An air compressor assembly including a condensate management system that removes condensate from an air storage tank. Condensate inside the storage tank descends to the lowest point in the tank, where a single port is located. The port can serve as both an inlet for compressed air to the storage tank and an outlet of compressed air from the storage tank. The condensate is drawn from the storage tank to the manifold assembly through an air conduit and out of the air compressor assembly through a connected tool when the tool is activated.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2015Publication date: May 19, 2016Inventors: Gary D.

Publication number: 20100068308Abstract: Provided is a novel use of therapeutic concentrations of an inhibitor of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3), including lithium or any other GSK-3 inhibitor, to block, reduce or inhibit processing of amyloid precursor proteins to beta-amyloid (A?) peptides, which are now believed to be the principal cause of Alzheimer's disease, thereby providing methods useful for the prevention, inhibition or reversal of the disease. Also provided are methods of using agents that specifically target the ? isoform of GSK-3, which is responsible for APP processing, making such selective GSK-3?-specific inhibitors especially useful in the treatment, prevention, and possible reversal of Alzheimer's disease. Further provided are kits and screening methods associated with the present methods.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2008Publication date: March 18, 2010Inventors: Christopher J. Phiel, Christina A.
