Abstract: An applicator brush is provided having a base tuft comprised of bristles affixed to a ferrule at a first end, the bristles having a second end terminating to form an edge. The brush includes a protruding tuft comprised of bristles configured to protrude from an interior portion of the base tuft. The interior portion of the base tuft comprises any location within a perimeter of the base tuft. A handle may be provided affixed to the ferrule.

Abstract: An applicator brush for applying a material to a surface is provided having a brush head of a width X arranged along a central axis. The brush head includes a first set of bristles having proximal base ends attached to a ferrule and distal ends defining a first edge situated in a substantially straight first plane perpendicular to the central axis. The first set of bristles have a first width Y, wherein Y<X. A second set of bristles is provided having proximal ends attached to the ferrule and distal ends defining a second edge situated in a second plane having a second width (X-Y). A length of each bristle in the first and second sets is defined as a distance between its proximal attachment point and its distal end.

Abstract: Switching devices control the rectification and flow of alternating current power from a source such as an alternator to a load such as a battery in response to both the voltage of the battery and a minimum selected time period that is selected to eliminate or reduce an imbalance between various phases or polarities in possible current carrying paths. The selected time period may be constant or a predetermined function of variables such as the speed of the alternator.

Abstract: A package assembly for electronic components that allows for low-cost multiple cavities as well as a multiple compartment structure that allows more components in a smaller package size. In one embodiment the present invention is a multi-cavity package having at least one substrate forming at least one cavity with the substrate coupled to a shelf within the sidewalls of the package.

Abstract: A substantially egg or tear drop shaped handle in which a segment, parallel to the major axis, has been cut away so as to provide a flat surface. Either end of the major axis of the substantially egg shaped handle or the non-rounded (i.e. pointed) end of the substantially tear shaped handle is adapted to receive, adapted to be received by, or integrally manufactured with, the item to be held by the handle. The flat surface is available as a thumb rest. Preferably the handle is of a size that when the thumb is against the flat side, the end of the major axis which is not attached to anything rests comfortably against a portion of the palm.
