Patent number: 10779680Abstract: A rotisserie grill cooker has a base, a support post, a cantilevered rail, a cage-drive assembly, and a firepit. Together these enable a user to suspend a rotating food rack over a heat source. Specifically, the base is a rigid structure to which one end of the support post is pivotably connected. The cantilevered rail extends away from the support post over the heat source. The cantilevered rail is positioned offset from the base along the support post, so the food rack can be suspended in between the cantilevered rail and the firepit that traverses through the base. The cage-drive assembly is a motorized support system, is slidably engaged along the cantilevered rail, and rotates the food rack. The support assembly has a carriage that is connected in between a drive system and the cantilevered rail. The heat source is within the firepit and heats the food rack.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2018Date of Patent: September 22, 2020Inventor: Kenneth Ellis Jordan

Patent number: 8782099Abstract: The present inventions relates to an Internet service based on two fundamental beliefs, first that identity on the Internet and in real life is substantially based on a individual's or organization's relationship to other people, objects, places, spaces, and organizations and second that individuals or organizations themselves should create, manage and control that identity. Based on these beliefs the present invention offers the Internet's leading tools, services and ecosystem that enables individuals and organizations to intuitively create and manage their identity based on relationships, effortlessly customize their internet experience to fit that identity and empower themselves to use that identity for benefit in their real life.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2013Date of Patent: July 15, 2014Assignee: MyGobs OyInventors: Kenneth Ellis Nichol Lampinen, Timo Tapani Koponen, Harri Koponen

Publication number: 20110307815Abstract: The present invention enables a user to intuitively collect and share information on his personal preferences and priorities through the relational placement of graphical objects in a graphical user interface. This information can then, with the express permission of the end user, be used by Internet services to deliver highly personalized services. Additionally, the present invention allows a computer system to measure user preferences and perceptions and to use that information for Internet services to deliver highly customized versions of their service.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 11, 2010Publication date: December 15, 2011Applicant: MYGOBS OYInventors: Kenneth Ellis Nichol Lampinen, Timo Tapani Koponen, Harri Koponen

Publication number: 20070211348Abstract: A common lens HMD is shown and described. The use of a common lens in a biocular or binocular helmet mounted display (HMD) system provides a means to manipulate light rays from an image(s) which are traveling from two or more separate upstream optics trains to the helmet visor and onward to each eye, with fields of view which overlap at the midpoint of the visor. The common lens changes the optical paths of each individual ray going to a single eye, and changes the corresponding ray traveling to the other eye in a mirrored fashion (i.e. with the opposite component in the Left/Right direction).Type: ApplicationFiled: March 7, 2006Publication date: September 13, 2007Inventors: Todd Ashcraft, Kenneth Ellis, Richard Pfisterer

Patent number: 6085417Abstract: A method for repairing the rim of a steam turbine rotor, and a weld material for repairing such rotors. The method generally includes the steps of removing a damaged rim and its associated dovetail region, so as to form a surface at the perimeter of the rim portion. A weld repair region is then formed on the surface, which is machined to reconstruct the rim portion and the dovetail region exclusively with the weld repair region. Thereafter, an appropriately configured blade is secured to the rim portion with the dovetail region. The method is particularly intended for the repair of a steel alloy rotor, such as a NiCrMoV, NiMoV and CrMoV alloy, while the weld repair is formed with a nickel-base superalloy whose mechanical and thermal properties are compatible with the repair method and the steel alloy over a broad temperature range.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 1998Date of Patent: July 11, 2000Assignee: General Electric Co.Inventors: Karl Rudolph Anderson, III, Gerald Richard Crawmer, Edward Kenneth Ellis, John Francis Nolan, Louis Patrick Earvolino, Robert Ellis Seeley, Joseph John Pepe, Robert Joseph Christoffel, Joseph Louis Van Ullen
