Patent number: 9810850Abstract: A fiber gripper component includes a fiber receiving recess which extends from a first surface of the fiber gripper component toward a second surface of the fiber gripper component. The fiber receiving recess extends from a front face to a rear face. The fiber receiving recess has a fiber receiving surface which is positioned between the first surface and the second surface. A plurality of resilient fiber receiving grooves extend from the fiber receiving surface toward the second surface. The resilient fiber receiving grooves have a width which is less than an outer-diameter dimension of mating optical fibers to provide a press fit of the optical fibers into the resilient fiber receiving grooves. The fiber gripper component is molded with tolerances in the submicron range to maintain part functionality to allow automatable fiber assembly.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2016Date of Patent: November 7, 2017Assignee: TE CONNECTIVITY CORPORATIONInventors: Aleksandar Kolev Angelov, Daniel Wesley Flemmens, Michael Fredrick Laub, Jason Thomas Chiota

Publication number: 20170223941Abstract: An apparatus is a mountable fishing baitwell. The apparatus allows a user to easily access live bait and properly sustains live bait. The apparatus includes a support structure, a water reservoir, a mounting base, and an aeration unit. The support structure upholds the water reservoir and houses the aeration unit. The water reservoir contains the water and the live bait. The mounting base secures the apparatus onto the bow rail of a boat. The support structure further includes a structure body, a reservoir bed, and a storage compartment. The water reservoir further includes a receptacle and a hand-permeable cover. The hand-permeable cover detachably attaches about an opening of the receptacle, and thereby prevents the live bait from escaping and allows the receptacle to be refilled. The aeration unit distributes oxygen into the water within the receptacle which better sustains the live bait within the receptacle.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 3, 2017Publication date: August 10, 2017Inventor: Daniel Wesley Cornwell

Patent number: 6908248Abstract: A page lifting device for use with loose-leaf binders containing binding rings. The leaves of the page lifter are formed from one or more stiff sheets of material or loops of stiff wire, rotatably affixed at their inner edges to an attaching member that is fixedly attached to the binding ring-base. The pivot axis between the leaves and attachment member is located close to the center of the substantially circular binder rings which, when the binder is closed, causes the page lifter leaves to envelope and lift the loose-leaf pages away from the binder spine. The page lifter leaves can contain slots or holes therein, which allow them to fit over the binder rings on closing.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2003Date of Patent: June 21, 2005Inventor: Daniel Wesley Pangburn

Publication number: 20030041550Abstract: A device to inexpensively repair a wooden post that has rotted or failed. The device comprises a plate which has a plurality of holes drilled or punched in it for attaching above ground level to a side of a wooden post and at least two rods depending out from the face of the plate. At least one of the rods depends near the top of the plate and at least one of the rods depends near the bottom of the plate. This location of the rods allows them to work cooperatively in push-pull to counteract a moment tending to overturn the post. The rods extend into a hole dug in the soil adjacent to the existing post footing. After the fence has been aligned as desired, the hole is filled with concrete surrounding the rods.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 28, 2001Publication date: March 6, 2003Inventor: Daniel Wesley Pangburn

Patent number: 6526722Abstract: A device to inexpensively repair a wooden post that has rotted or failed. The device comprises a plate which has a plurality of holes drilled or punched in it for attaching above ground level to a side of a wooden post and at least two rods depending out and down from the face of the plate. At least one of the rods depends near the top of the plate and at least one of the rods depends near the bottom of the plate. This location of the rods allows them to work cooperatively in tension-compression to counteract a moment tending to overturn the post. The rods extend into a hole dug in the soil adjacent to the existing post footing. After the fence has been aligned as desired, the hole is filled with concrete surrounding the rods.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2001Date of Patent: March 4, 2003Inventor: Daniel Wesley Pangburn

Patent number: 6318628Abstract: A single-door locking mailbox that includes a housing having an open end and a door pivotally mounted to the housing for closing and opening the end. The door can be fully open, near closed but not locked or fully closed. A locking assembly, with a latch which can be placed in either the locked or unlocked position with a key, is attached to the door. A catch is attached at one end to the inside of the enclosure and has a camming surface and a hole at the free end. The camming surface deflects the catch over the latch when the door is pushed closed. The hole in the catch is positioned and configured so that it captures the locked latch when the door is pushed fully closed. The catch is resilient enough to be elastically deflected over the latch. A guard over the catch shields it from being deflected by a finger or tool inserted through the mail slot by a thief.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2000Date of Patent: November 20, 2001Inventor: Daniel Wesley Pangburn

Patent number: 6298347Abstract: Uniformly formatted sets of data are collected from a remote site and electronically transmitted back to a central collection site. In this process, data to be collected is specified. Then, a questionnaire specification file is generated. The questionnaire specification file defines the file specification and associated data structure for creating questionnaires. A telecommunications link is established between a central computing/data processing unit at the central collection site and a remote computing/data processing unit at the remote site. The questionnaire specification file is electronically transmitted to the remote data processing unit. In the remote unit, the defined file specification and associated data structure in the questionnaire specification file is used to create at least one questionnaire. The questionnaire is completed at the remote site by entering questionnaire data into the remote unit.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 1998Date of Patent: October 2, 2001Assignee: Numoda CorporationInventor: Daniel Wesley

Patent number: 6006024Abstract: A method for automatically selecting tie styles used during the horizontal placement of substrate and well ties. A linear order of tie styles is determined (2422). Ties are placed horizontally in the layout based upon an initial tie style (2424). Route and compact layout components (2426). If the layout has satisfied the tie coverage rules (2428) the tie style selection process is complete. Otherwise, contacts, vias and ties are added where possible (2430). If the layout has now satisfied the tie coverage rules (2432) tie style selection process is complete. If not, the next tie style is chosen from the linear order (2434). The process continues by placing (2424), routing and compacting components (2426) with the new tie style, until the cell satisfies the tie coverage rules.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 1996Date of Patent: December 21, 1999Assignee: Motorola, Inc.Inventors: Mohankumar Guruswamy, Daniel Wesley Dulitz, Andrea Fernandez, Srilata Raman, Robert L.
