Publication number: 20240100815Abstract: A breathable synthetic roofing underlayment having a hydrophobic nonwoven layer on top to deflect water, a liquid water-resistant and vapour-permeable membrane layer in the middle, and a bottom nonwoven layer which is hydrophilic and has rapid and high liquid water absorbency. This accelerates the movement of liquid water from a roofing deck into the nonwoven bottom layer and increases the rate of transfer of water through the underlayment. The bottom layer comprises a carrier resin and a hydrophilic agent, which may be a polyamide such as polycaprolactam (Nylon 6) or poly(hexamethylene adipamide), a polysorbate or other composition. The underlayment is especially useful for application to wet roofing decks.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Gurpreet Singh Sandhar, Kenneth Russell Robson, Sahar Khedri

Patent number: 11752773Abstract: In one example, a system to fill or drain a reservoir in a printer includes a controller to set a unit to a total capacity of a container divided by an integer greater than 1, a container sensor to sense the container connected to the printer, and a pump to pump, in set unit increments, at least one unit of a printing agent from the container to the reservoir or from the reservoir to the container. In one example, a memory having processor executable instructions to generate a graphical user interface displaying, during the transfer of a printing agent from a container to a reservoir in a printer or from the reservoir to the container, an animation showing a changing volume of the printing agent in the reservoir and a corresponding changing volume of the printing agent in the container.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2019Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Howard G Wong, Wesley Schalk, Kris Randall Livingston, Kenneth Russell Williams

Patent number: 10807362Abstract: An example printing subassembly includes a frame having first and second members spaced extending in a first direction. The frame can be removably coupled to a printing device. The first and second members are spaced from each other in a second direction, which is orthogonal to the first direction. The first and second directions are also orthogonal to a third direction. A printbar is coupled to the frame. An alignment system is coupled to the frame and includes at least four alignment features cooperating to constrain translation of the printing subassembly in the third direction and rotation about axes in the first and second directions with respect to the printing device.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2016Date of Patent: October 20, 2020Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Kenneth Russell Williams, Matt G Driggers

Patent number: 10438784Abstract: A voltage supply system for supplying an RF voltage to an RF resonant load comprising an ion-optical component of a mass spectrometer is disclosed. The system comprises a Direct Digital Synthesizer (“DDS”) arranged and adapted to output an RF voltage. The voltage supply system is arranged and adapted: (i) to vary the frequency of the RF voltage output by the Direct Digital Synthesizer, (ii) to determine a first resonant frequency of the RF resonant load comprising the ion-optical component, and (iii) to determine whether or not the generation of an RF voltage at the first resonant frequency by the Direct Digital Synthesizer would also result in the generation of a spur frequency close to the first resonant frequency.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2018Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: Micromass UK LimitedInventors: David R.

Patent number: 9879470Abstract: A door mullion receptacle box assembly includes a toe plate, a channel box and block components. When a mullion is removed from a building/room opening, the toe plate may be fixed in the mullion receptacle box thus creating a uniform threshold across the width of the door openings. Using the assembly described herein, however, there are no large diameter holes in the top of the toe plate and no projections into the opening that could be a trip hazard. The present assembly replaces traditional fixed sill blocks mounted to the floor, or to the top of a threshold to anchor the bottom of conventional mullions. A typical mullion is locked in place with a lock at the top of the mullion. When installed, this mullion is placed over the sill block at the sill and tilted into place and locked into a header block at the top of the mullion.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2017Date of Patent: January 30, 2018Assignee: Frame & Mullions LLCInventors: James Thomas Clarke, Jr., Kenneth Russell Snow
