Patent number: 11860500Abstract: An integrated computerized control system is capable of automating phases of electrochromic glass configuration, commissioning and control using a database synchronized between a provider side (e.g. manufacturer) and a customer side (e.g. installation location). The control system may support an on-site commissioning process that better ensures that each particular piece of electrochromic glass is correctly matched to glass-specific information used to configure a respective controller to control the particular piece of glass having particular characteristics.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2020Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: SAGE Electrochromics, Inc.Inventors: Troy Liebl, David Best, Sean Kioski

Patent number: 9190790Abstract: A connector includes a first housing section carrying a first conductor element and a second housing section carrying a second conductor element. The first housing section and the second housing section are coupled to each other about a pivot axis such that the first housing section and the second housing section are moveable relative to each other. The first housing section and the second housing section are intended to be moved from a first position to a second position in which the first conductor element of the first housing section and the second conductor element of the second housing section are positioned to make contact with the electrical conductors of a bus bar. In the second position the first housing section and the second housing section are further adapted to engage with each other to thereby inhibit the first housing section and the second housing section from being moved relative to each other back towards the first position.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2014Date of Patent: November 17, 2015Assignee: IDEAL Industries, Inc.Inventors: Chris Gongora, David Best Peterson, Sushil Keswani

Patent number: 5514796Abstract: A high-pressure, non-catalytic process for producing melamine from urea wherein the melamine is recovered directly as a dry powder without washing or recrystallization is described. In the process, liquid melamine is fed to a cooling unit where it is quenched with a liquid medium, preferably liquid ammonia. By increasing the pressure within the cooling unit to a pressure in excess of 600 psi and preferably to 1200 to 1400 psi provides melamine having a purity in excess of 99%.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 1995Date of Patent: May 7, 1996Assignee: Melamine Chemicals, Inc.Inventors: David Best, Amit Gupta
