Patent number: 8344791Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention include charge pump circuits and methods. In one embodiment, a first charge pump receives a voltage and generates a first charge pump output voltage and current for supplying the power requirements of a circuit. A second charge pump is coupled in series with the first charge pump. The second charge pump generates a second charge pump output voltage and current for supplying different power requirements of the circuit. In one embodiment, the first charge pump provides a high current low voltage output to a first circuit and the second charge pump provides a low current high voltage output to a second circuit.

Patent number: 7802338Abstract: A rain-gutter cleaning system has an agitator head that is mounted to the top end of a long suction tube and pole and supported aloft by them. A vacuum pump on the ground is connected to bring rain-gutter debris down the suction tube and into a collection bag. The agitator head includes opposite, synchronized rotating paddles that tear and break up tangles and clogs encountered in a rain gutter and that helps direct the loosened debris down the throat of the suction tube. An optional camera mounted atop the agitator head allows an operator on the ground below to see the performance inside of the rain gutter on a small monitor screen.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2009Date of Patent: September 28, 2010Inventor: Ira George Hall

Publication number: 20070170730Abstract: A door handle lock assembly includes a housing configured to be attached to a door. A interconnecting member is rotatably and axially movably supported by the housing. A first handle is fixed to the interconnecting member at a first end of the interconnecting member and a second handle is fixed to the interconnecting member at a second end of the interconnecting member. The door is between the second handle and the housing. The door handle lock assembly is changed from a locked condition to an unlocked condition by axially moving the interconnecting member from a first position to a second position and then rotating the interconnecting member.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2005Publication date: July 26, 2007Applicant: Bell Helicopter Textron Inc.Inventor: George Hall

Patent number: 6586083Abstract: A mat for covering soil comprising a lower fabric layer, an upper fabric layer superimposed over the lower fabric layer, and a water absorbing material interposed between said lower fabric layer and upper fabric layer. The mat contains tubular segments containing fabric and hydraulically setting cement. The cover, when wetted, becomes ballasted by the absorbed water and the tubular elements harden to form rigid ribs that hold the mat in conformity with the surface of the underlying soil.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 1998Date of Patent: July 1, 2003Assignee: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as represented by the Secretary of the ArmyInventors: Charles Arthur Weiss, Jr., Philip Garcin Malone, Kenneth George Hall, Bartley Patrick Durst

Patent number: 6499948Abstract: A fan shroud for an axial flow fan comprises a generally annular main body having an inlet end, an outlet end, and an inner surface defining a fluid flow path between the inlet and outlet ends. The inner surface includes first and second conical sections that converge toward the outlet end and a diverging section that diverges toward the outlet end. The second conical section is located between the first conical section and the diverging section. With this arrangement, turbulent fluid flow through the fan shroud between the inlet end and outlet end is minimized. Preferably, a first converging angle of the first conical section with respect to a plane transverse to the direction of fluid flow at the inlet end is less than a second converging angle of the second conical section with respect to the plane.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2001Date of Patent: December 31, 2002Assignee: Penn Ventilation, Inc.Inventors: Vasanthi Iyer, Richard Down, Jr., George Hall

Patent number: 5735498Abstract: An emergency sign is mounted to a canopy that is attached to a support such as a ceiling or vertical wall. The canopy includes a post, and the sign includes a housing having a slot for receiving the post. The slot includes a wide portion and a narrow portion. The post is insertable into the wide portion and then slidable into the narrow portion. The sign housing includes a pair of locking arms that are spread apart by movement of the post into the narrow portion, and then snap back to a position blocking reverse travel of the post out of the narrow portion. The canopy includes through-holes for receiving mounting screws to secure the canopy to a support. Each through-hole includes radially inwardly projecting ears which are deformable in response to the entry of a screw into the through-hole to retain the screw in the through-hole during the mounting procedure.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 1996Date of Patent: April 7, 1998Assignee: Cooper Industries, Inc.Inventors: George Hall Jue, Gregory Louis Kuffel
