  • Patent number: 10315303
    Abstract: Existing fabrication tables are often expensive, immobile, unsafe, and difficult to work with. This invention comprises a modular fabrication table, which is rapidly adaptable to expand over a large surface area, add perpendicular work surfaces, and integrate existing peripheral components that can be purchased at a store. This allows fabrication prototypers to have relatively inexpensive, mobile, sturdy, square, and level tables within which to configure structures for the production of fabrication work pieces.

  • Publication number: 20180357605
    Abstract: Systems and methods objectively manage review of design documents for engineered components to facilitate review of such documents at an appropriate level of scrutiny by assigned reviewers. Review assignment rules evaluate characteristics of the design documents to create a review assignment plan specific to each design document, facilitating application of a standard practice to the assessment such documents.

  • Publication number: 20050027552
    Abstract: The systems, methods and computer program products of the present invention provide an expedited process for reviewing, validating and approving claims in a recovery audit. The claims are electronically packaged with supporting documents and securely distributed to clients. In an illustrative embodiment, a client receives an e-mail notice that one or more claims are ready for review, and via an Internet browser can review, approve and comments on one or more claims prepared by an auditor. Because the support documentation is immediately available, all parties have the same material as the basis of the claim before them to understand the source of the recovery. Once approved by the client (also referred to as the claimant), the same claim and supporting documentation can be provided to the vendor for review, and if appropriate, approval. Through this process, the present invention records communications among the parties to ensure a complete record.

  • Patent number: 5377170
    Abstract: A timer which measures the duration of a first of two consecutive contractions and also measures the elapsed time period between the beginning of said first contraction and the beginning of a second of two consecutive contractions and which displays successive pairs of first and second contractions and which also compares the most recent time measurement values to a user programmed target time and further alerts the user when a measured time is less than said programmed target time.

  • Patent number: 5191785
    Abstract: A vessel for containing an electro-conductive fluid, the vessel having a laminated wall structure and including an outer structural shell, an inner corrosion-resistant lining made of electrically non-conductive material, constituting a barrier between the structural shell and electro-conductive fluid in the vessel. An electrically resistive medium is mounted between the structural shell and the corrosion-resistant lining, the resistive medium carrying an array of electrodes mounted in spaced apart relationship at fixed and known locations. A main electrode is mounted in the vessel extending into the electro-conductive fluid which forms an electric path between the main electrode and the resistive medium in occurence of a fault in the corrosion-resistant liner, such that electro-conductive fluid is allowed to contact the resistive medium. An electronic controller impresses a voltage difference across electrodes of the array for causing electric current to circulate through the resistive medium.

  • Patent number: 4925250
    Abstract: The present invention discloses front and rear wheel constructions which are adapted for use with 1/10 scale radio controlled toy cars. The wheel construction of the present invention enables a plurality of tires to be mounted on each wheel, thus extending the track width and providing a larger tread contact area. These features reduce the tendency of the cars to roll over and also enhance the acceleration and cornering performance of the cars.

  • Patent number: 4110739
    Abstract: A laminated vessel or pipe having an outer wall of fibreglass reinforced polyester, an inner wall of corrosion resistant thermoplastic and an electrical conductive layer between the inner and outer walls. A probe of inert material is inserted into the tank or pipe and is connected to a source of electrical power and with an alarm system and the electrical circuit is completed with a connection to the electrical conductive layer in the vessel or pipe.
