Publication number: 20170184090Abstract: A reciprocating jetting water pump primarily for use on a vacuum truck is disclosed. The jetting water pump includes a pair of reciprocating pistons that are each movable within an outer cylinder mounted to a center block. Each of the outer cylinders is mounted to the center block by a plurality of tie-rod that each extend between the center block and an end plate. An airflow passageway is formed in the center block to vent air trapped within the open interior of the first outer cylinder during reciprocating movement of the piston in the first outer cylinder. A control system mounted to the vacuum truck senses the pressure of water leaving the jetting water pump and controls the supply of pressurized hydraulic fluid to the jetting water pump to maintain the water pressure at an operator selected value.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2017Publication date: June 29, 2017Applicant: Super Products LLCInventors: Jason David Hetcher, Curtis J.

Patent number: 9643562Abstract: Airbags and airbag assemblies are disclosed that include passive adaptive venting. The disclosed embodiments include an airbag cushion to define an inflation chamber and that include a set of vents. The set of vents is disposed through a panel of the airbag cushion. The set of vents allow egress of inflation gas from the inflation chamber and to be in an open state when a degree of compression of the airbag cushion is below a threshold level. The set of vents is configured to be in a closed state and/or obstructed by a vehicle surface of a vehicle structure when the degree of compression of the airbag cushion exceeds the threshold level.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2016Date of Patent: May 9, 2017Assignee: AUTOLIV ASP, INC.Inventors: Changsoo Choi, Frank Herzenstiel, Pontus Soderstrom, James Jacobson, Michael J.

Patent number: 9611636Abstract: A vacuum truck for dispensing water into a sewer or similar location and receiving recovered water from the sewer that includes debris to be removed therefrom. The vacuum truck includes a debris tank that receives the recovered water and retains debris removed from the recovered water. A primary and a secondary filter are positioned in the debris tank for separating debris from the recovered water. A water pump draws the recovered water through the secondary filter and provides the water to a tertiary filter that removes smaller debris from the recovered water. The recovered water from the tertiary filter is provided directly to a jetting water pump without being accumulated in a water holding tank. The vacuum truck includes a water storage tank that includes potable water for cleaning the truck or when recovered water is not available from the debris tank.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2014Date of Patent: April 4, 2017Assignee: Super Products LLCInventors: Jason David Hetcher, Daniel J.

Patent number: 8241975Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for providing a low voltage high density multi-bit storage flash memory. A dual bit memory cell of the invention comprises a substrate having a common source, a first drain and first channel, and a second drain and a second channel. A common control gate is located above the source. A first floating gate and a second floating gate are located on opposite sides of the control gate. Each floating gate is formed with a sharp tip adjacent to the control gate and an upper curved surface that follows a contour of the surface of the control gate. The sharp tips of the floating gates efficiently discharge electrons into the control gate when the memory cell is erased. The curved surfaces increase capacitor coupling between the control gate and the floating gates.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2011Date of Patent: August 14, 2012Assignee: National Semiconductor CorporationInventors: Jiankang Bu, Lee James Jacobson, Andre Paul Labonte
