  • Patent number: 10253536
    Abstract: A releasable locking hinge assembly having: a shaft including a first locking region with multiple faceted sides on an outer circumference of the shaft, and a partial or complete hollow cylinder coaxial with and receiving the shaft, wherein the hollow cylinder includes a second locking region with multiple faceted sides on an inner wall of the cylinder, wherein the first locking region and second locking region are configured to slidably engage; and wherein the locking regions slidably engage, they lock the angular position of the locking hinge, and where they slidably disengage, they allow the locking hinge to pivot.

  • Patent number: 9506281
    Abstract: A load bearing rotation lock mechanism including disks or cylinders with teeth or a combination of both that interlock radially between their inner and outer surface areas, or frontal areas, or both, where one of the disks or cylinders is attached to a fixed surface area and the other disk or cylinder is attached to a pivoting arm, plate, or other kind of load bearing support element, and where one of the disks or cylinders is able to mesh (lock) and un-mesh (unlock) from the other disk or cylinder by protruding, retracting, or sliding laterally over a common, continuous or divided axis, shaft, or channel thereby freezing the angular position of the pivoting arm, plate, or other kind of load bearing support element with respect to the fixed surface area at the time the disks, cylinders, or a combination of both, mesh (lock) with each other and unfreezing the pivoting arm, plate, or other kind of load bearing support element to pivot freely with respect to the fixed surface area when the disks, cylinders, or c

  • Patent number: 8571922
    Abstract: Certain examples relate to computer implemented methods and systems including at least three modules whose combined functionality provides for interpretation and optimization of usual and unusual patterns in energy consumption; the identification, quantification, and monetization of hidden operating and financial waste and the accurate measurement of the results of implemented energy management solutions. The first, “Expert Module”, provides information that assists with the accurate interpretation of the information provided in the Operations module. The second, “Costs Module”, allows users to modify consumption and price components and derive the resulting operating costs based on the facility's applied or available rate structures. The third, “Operations Module”, charts and evaluates the current operating performance of a facility down to 15-minute intervals in comparison to the operating performance of a pre-selected “base year”.
