  • Patent number: 10929004
    Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium may have computer-executable instructions stored thereon that are executable by a processor device to perform or control performance of various operations. The operations may include displaying a graphical diagram of multiple nodes and their relationships based on structured data about the nodes and their relationships. The operations may also include receiving input effective to specify a filter parameter. The operations may also include analyzing the nodes displayed in the graphical diagram to identify a first subset of the nodes that satisfy the filter parameter and a second subset of the nodes that fail to satisfy the filter parameter. The operations may also include altering the graphical diagram in accordance with the filter parameter.

  • Publication number: 20180292871
    Abstract: This invention provides a method and apparatus for device designers to overcome such limitations by incorporating a dynamic fluid cooling system to transfer heat within the device amongst various subsystems and convect the heat externally, versus current static thermal solutions which conductively spread heat in a limited manner at significant cost. Specifically these dynamic fluid cooling methods and apparatus for electronic device enable increased performance and decreased cost across many of the device subsystems including but not limited to: electronics, integrated circuits, batteries, display panels, touch panels, lighting, audio transducers, imaging, flash LEDs and chargers.

  • Patent number: 9481557
    Abstract: Disclosed is an attachment for a fork of a forklift truck enabling the forklift truck to pull a pallet towards the forklift truck. At least one fork has a generally horizontal section extending away from the forklift truck and a generally vertical section adjacent to the forklift truck. The attachment has an elongate upside down U-shaped channel having a proximal end and a distal end for slipping onto the generally horizontal section of the fork of the forklift truck. The distal end of the attachment carries a U-shaped rod slippable over the generally vertical section of the fork. A troft is in the attachment near the proximal end. Upstanding teeth are retained by the attachment between the proximal end and the troft for retaining pallets so that the forklift truck can pull the pallet.

  • Patent number: 7767747
    Abstract: Emulsion compositions containing a silicone polymer and organic polymer as an alloy and/or hybrid emulsion can be made by (i) first forming an emulsion containing a silicone polymer by emulsion polymerization in which (a) the ring of a cyclic siloxane oligomer is opened, in which (b)an hydroxy endblocked siloxane oligomer is condensed, using an acid or base catalyst in the presence of water, or in which (c) an hydrogen endblocked siloxane oligomer and a vinyl endblocked siloxane oligomer are reacted by hydrosilylation using a catalyst; (ii) adding to the emulsion in (i) the components for preparing an emulsion containing an organic polymer by free radical emulsion polymerization of an ethylenically unsaturated organic monomer, and (iii) heating the emulsion. The resulting coalesced compositions produce polymer blends or alloys whose properties are influenced by the composition and morphology of the hybrid emulsion particles.

  • Publication number: 20090281855
    Abstract: A system and method for dynamically marketing cattle is provided comprising a buyer interface, a producer interface, a network, and a cattle information server. The cattle information server receives information from the buyer interface defining a plurality of demand profiles at least one which contains information specifying a first pre-conditioning program. The cattle information server also receives information from the producer interface defining a supply profile that specifies a second pre-conditioning program and stores the demand profiles and supply profile in a database. The cattle information server searches the database to determine if one or more of the demand profiles match the supply profile based at least in part on a comparison of the first and second pre-conditioning programs and identifies at least one demand profile in response to a match between the supply profile and the demand profile.
