Patent number: 11937792Abstract: An excisional device for either handheld or stereotactic table use may comprise an outer sheath that may comprise a distal trough shape configured to penetrate and/or cut tissue independently or in concert with work element(s). The articulable work element(s) may comprise articulable beak(s) and may be configured to translate and/or rotate at a first rate and to cut tissue in a direction implied by placement of the trough shaped outer sheath. A first helical element or equivalent assembly may be configured to transport tissue cut by the work element(s) and/or trough, may be co-axially disposed relative to the work element(s) and may be operative to rotate at a second rotation rate that is different than the first rate. A proximal sheath may be co-axially disposed relative to the work element(s) and the first helical element, and may be configured to rotate and actuate the work element(s).Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2020Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: TransMed7, LLCInventors: James W Vetter, Eugene H Vetter, Daniel E Clark, Alisen E Vetter, Paul A Vetter

Patent number: 11942204Abstract: A training script device is described that conveniently allows a user to create a training script defining one or more steps of a workout routine, where each step may include an activity, a duration for performing that activity, and an intensity at which the activity is to be performed. Further, one or more steps of the training script can be self-starting in response to performance data detected by sensors of training script device executing the training script. This conveniently frees the athlete from having to continuously monitor the status of his or her workout activities. Still further, the training script device conveniently allows a user to transfer training scripts to other training script devices, so that athletes can share successful training scripts.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2020Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: NIKE, Inc.Inventors: James W.

Patent number: 7130780Abstract: An array of electrically isolated electrode pairs in combination with a specially configured processor, e.g., a personal computer, is employed to obtain a continuous real-time acquisition, processing, mapping and visualization of fluid washover. In a specific application, washover data are collected on salient electrical characteristics of seawater accumulating between electrodes of an electrode pair, one of which may be a common ground plane. For example, the resistance of seawater is measured dynamically at each electrode pair. These data are then processed using specialized software to yield representation of the dynamics of selected washover events on a surface of interest. Described systems specifically provide real-time spatial and temporal representations of interaction, including two and three-dimensional visualization of the washover, as well as recording selected data for future use. Methods of employment of the system are also described.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2002Date of Patent: October 31, 2006Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the ArmyInventors: Norbert E. Yankielun, James H. Clark

Publication number: 20030117154Abstract: Using an array of electrically isolated electrode pairs in combination with a specially configured processor, e.g., a personal computer, continuous real-time acquisition, processing, mapping and visualization of an object's interaction with its environment are provided. In a specific application, washover data are collected on salient electrical characteristics of seawater accumulating between electrodes of an electrode pair, one of which may be a common ground plane. For example, in one embodiment, the resistance of seawater is measured dynamically at each electrode pair. These data are then processed using specialized software to yield representation of the dynamics of selected washover events on a surface of interest. Described systems specifically provide real-time spatial and temporal representations of interaction, including two and three-dimensional visualization of the interaction, e.g., washover, as well as recording selected data for future use.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2002Publication date: June 26, 2003Inventors: Norbert E. Yankielun, James H. Clark

Patent number: 5406903Abstract: A stabilizing jacket for a towed cable or antenna structure is operative preventing rotation of the antenna/cable structure as it is towed through the water. The stabilizing jacket consists of an elongated body having a longitudinal bore extending therethrough for receiving the antenna/cable structure therein. The body may extend along the entire length of the antenna/cable structure and is symmetrical about a vertical median. The body further includes first and second symmetrical deflection vanes which extend outwardly from opposite sides of the body, and first and second symmetrical keel fins which diverge outwardly and downwardly from the body immediately adjacent the median. The deflection vanes and keel fins may extend along an entire length of the body. The symmetrical keel fins effectively increase the metacentric height of the antenna/cable structure and thereby tend to prevent rotation of the antenna/cable structure due to hydrodynamic forces as the antenna/cable is towed through the water.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 1994Date of Patent: April 18, 1995Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the NavyInventor: James H.
