Patent number: 11638962Abstract: The present invention is a die positioning system for use in positioning mobile or fixed dies. The system includes a pair of key bars, a pair of key disc inserts, a set of key discs, and a set of disc backers. The key bars and key discs serve to offset manufacturing dies or die holders. Using key bars and/or key discs from different pairs of key bars and/or sets of key discs also allows for precise angulation of the dies or die holders. The key discs are held in place between the die and die holder, or between the die holder and key base, by the key disc inserts and angled (if feasible) by the disc backers. The key bars, located between the key disc inserts and the die or die holder allow additional offset of the die or die holder. The solid, stacked configuration of the key bars and key discs prevents the die or die holder from gradually or suddenly losing its positioning.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2022Date of Patent: May 2, 2023Assignee: VEY MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGIES LLCInventor: Kenneth Roger LeVey

Patent number: 11596852Abstract: A swing alert system disposed about a baseball setup that includes a pitcher and a batter, with one or more swing alert device that determine a speed and position of a ball along a flightpath of the ball pitched by the pitcher, the flightpath extending from the pitcher to a hitting location target proximate to the batter; determine a time when the ball will reach the hitting location target based at least in part on the determined speed and position of the ball along the flightpath; and generate a swing alert while the ball is traveling along the flightpath and before the ball reaches the hitting location target. The swing alert is generated at a time determined based at least in part on the determined time when the ball will reach the hitting location target and a defined swing time associated with the batter.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2021Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: X Factor Technology, LLCInventors: Kenneth Roger Cherryhomes, Mark Werner

Patent number: 11292554Abstract: A velocipede includes a pedal crank for pedals to allow an operator to power the velocipede, and a transmission hub or component that is coupled to the pedal crank by a first chain or belt. The transmission component is located rearward of the pedal crank in the frame of the velocipede, such as under a seat position, and is further connected to a rear wheel at an output of the transmission component by a second chain or belt. The transmission has an output that is coupled to a rear wheel assembly. In some embodiments the rear wheel assembly can be mounted in a swingarm that pivots about a transverse axis defined by the output of the transmission. In some embodiments the rear wheel assembly can include an electric motor to drive a rear wheel.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2020Date of Patent: April 5, 2022Assignee: CR DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT, LLCInventors: Robert Joseph Provost, Daniel Martin Del Aguila, James Salvatore Aversa, Jr., Charles Dow McVean, Leroy Pearce McCarty, Jr., Kenneth Roger D'Angelo
