Publication number: 20240072599Abstract: An electric power apparatus includes a main planar body having a circular opening that supports a brushless direct-current (BLDC) motor. The motor includes a stator, a rotor, a motor spindle extending through the circular opening, a first end cap formed on a first side of the stator and mounted on the main planar body; and a second end cap formed on a second side of the stator and secured to the first end cap to form a substantially watertight seal around the stator and the rotor. A ratio of a maximum power output of the motor when powered by at least one battery pack to a height of the motor as measured from an upper surface of the main planar body to a top surface of the motor is greater than or equal to approximately 34 watts/mm.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Applicant: BLACK & DECKER INC.Inventors: JOHN B. FOGLE, KEVIN L. PULLEY, MARK J. CLEMENTI, JAMES M. NOBIS, SHAILESH P. WAIKAR, DAVID M. KELLY, NATHANIEL K. BYRNE, TIMOTHY A. CLAPP

Patent number: 8694351Abstract: A method for auditing installation of communications facilities. Network engineering information is received. The network engineering information may include telecommunications installation requirements and a budget associated with one or more telecommunications projects. A portal is displayed to receive telecommunications installation information from one or more contractors assigned to perform the one or more telecommunications projects. Auditing information associated with the one or more telecommunications projects is received. The auditing information and the network engineering information are automatically compared to the telecommunications information to determine deviations for multiple criteria. The deviations are reported for adjusting the compensation of the contractor.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 2008Date of Patent: April 8, 2014Assignee: CenturyLink Intellectual Property LLCInventors: Sue L. Stevens, William Radel, Sandhya Kolety, Allen L. Aten, Jr., Dana P. Morris, David M. Byrne

Patent number: 8331250Abstract: A system and method for strategic network planning includes a service forecast module that determines a forecasted service need for additional telecommunication network services. A network equipment module is in communication with the service forecast module. The network equipment module is operable to determine an equipment need for telecommunications network equipment in response to the determined forecasted service need. The equipment need includes a list of equipment that is desired to meet the forecasted service need. A task module is also in communication with the network equipment module. The task module is operable to determine task needs in response to the determined equipment need. The task needs include a list of tasks that need to be completed to meet the equipment need. A project module is also in communication with the task module. The project module is operable to calculate a project start date. The project start date is calculated in response to the determined task needs.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2008Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: CenturyLink Intellectual Property LLCInventors: Nancy Middleton-Hand, David M. Byrne, Robert B. Shields, Michael W. Stutzman, Kenneth B. Tedder
