  • Patent number: 11037180
    Abstract: A computing device is configured to identify a concept of a good or service for an unmet market potential. A Global User Search Data file (GUSD) comprising information related to a search object is read. A morpheme combination in in the search object from the GUSD is identified. The morpheme combination is compared to a first set of pre-existing terms. A first score is assigned to the search object based on the comparison, wherein a higher first score is assigned if the morpheme combination is not found in the first set of pre-existing terms. An un-successfulness of the search object is determined and a second score is assigned, wherein a higher second score is assigned the more un-successful the search object is. An aggregate of all the scores for a search term is compared to a predetermined threshold. If the aggregate score is above the predetermined threshold, the search term is identified as a concept of a good or service for an unmet market potential.

  • Patent number: 3985331
    Abstract: A high resolution micro-metering valve having a non-rotary needle valve supported between a pair of calibrated coil springs of widely different spring rates. The lower rate spring is axially adjustable in minute increments by the valve actuator to vary the loading on the higher rate spring in an amount proportional to the ratio of the two spring rates. The valve actuator is free of all backlash and all relative movement with the valve packing is restricted to non-rotary axial movement. The valve proper can be contoured at will to provide linear or non-linear flow characteristics without need for any change in either of the two coil springs.
