  • Publication number: 20170260934
    Abstract: Devices and methods are disclosed for charging fuel molecules in a delivery conduit. The devices are monopole charging devices having at least three individual magnets. A one piece orienting mount having insert formations equal in number to the number of magnets and spaced a selected distance from each other receives and holds the magnets, and is secured around the delivery conduit. The mount holds the magnets in an orientation with a common pole of each contacting the conduit and the opposite pole of each spaced from and facing away from the conduit.

  • Patent number: 5451763
    Abstract: Reading data from, writing data to and storing data in an IC card, utilizing an external Read/Write unit. An IC card (12) is provided. The IC card (12) comprises a rigid substrate (86) and electrical components (88) disposed on the substrate. A card coil (32) is provided about the periphery of the substrate (86) and is placed in a coil form (94). Card capacitive plates (24) and (26) are disposed on the bottom of the substrate (86). Power circuitry is provided for receiving inductive power from the card coil (32) and generating a regulated power supply voltage for powering the electrical components (88). I/O circuitry is provided for capacitively coupling data via the card capacitor plates (24) and (26). A cover (130) is also provided for covering the electric components (88) on the substrate (86). An IC card Read/Write unit (14) is provided. The IC card Read/Write unit comprises a receptacle (16) shaped similar to the substrate (86) of the IC card (12).

  • Patent number: 4624609
    Abstract: A router is coupled to a pair of pivotally connected arms for free swinging movement about a horizontal plane in a space between a template and a workpiece. The router has an upwardly extending guide pin that is engageable with the template and a downwardly extending cutting bit which is concentric to the guide pin and engageable with the workpiece below. The template is in parallel, opposed relationship to the workpiece such that as the guide pin is moved about the template, the cutting bit simultaneously mills the workpiece to produce the sign. In preferred forms, a mirror carried by the router reflects an image of the guide pin to the machine operator during engagement with the template, and the mirror is also located in disposition relative to the operator's line of sight toward the cutting bit such that both the bit and the guide pin may be simultaneously observed.
