Patent number: 11498496Abstract: A black tank arrangement is provided having a selectively operable macerator for recirculating fluid adjacent the black tank outlet back toward the black tank inlet, so as to flush or spray waste from that inlet toward the outlet. Selecting the fluid transfer components to be mountable adjacent the end face of the black tank near the black tank outlet allows the invention to be retrofit into previously installed black tanks in vehicles. Operation of the macerator can be manual, via a remote switch held down by the user for a given time period, and/or automatic, in sequence with toilet operation.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2020Date of Patent: November 15, 2022Inventor: Larry Martin

Patent number: 9976775Abstract: This invention relates primarily to an electric heater based tankless water heater, though some aspects may also apply to a natural gas or other fuel based tankless water heater. In particular aspects relating to “smart” communication and coordination of the tankless water heater with other devices, which may be electrically powered or powered by other fuels, may also apply to non-electric flow through fluid heating systems. The subject tankless water heater invention incorporates several aspects relating to energy and construction efficiency which will be detailed further. These include both physical aspects, such as coatings, tubing and heater element design, and electrical aspects, such as power control for individual heater elements, which can make the tankless water heater more compact and more efficient in operation, with reduced instantaneous and long term load on electrical supply systems.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2016Date of Patent: May 22, 2018Assignee: BOLLENTE COMPANIES INC.Inventors: Micheal D.

Publication number: 20120277602Abstract: The systems and methods monitor a subject's blood pressure under a constant applied pressure. Measurements taken from a pressure measuring element and a pulse sensing element are combined to determine the subject's systolic and diastolic pressure. The systolic pressure is measured directly by the pressure measuring element, and the diastolic pressure is determined indirectly by using a pulse waveform to extrapolate portions of a pressure waveform. The systems and methods can be employed in any number of applications, including, without limitation, taking a single reading from a subject, continuously monitoring a subject, or evaluating a subject during physical exertion.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 29, 2011Publication date: November 1, 2012Applicant: BBNT Technologies Corp.Inventor: Larry Martin Tichauer

Publication number: 20110238497Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for providing an opaque online marketplace and distribution network for items, tickets, tokens, and other goods or services using a dynamic pricing engine and user-specific market price adjustments, and drawing inventory from multiple sources. Under-sold inventory from an inventory source may be monetized, while protecting the brand of the market entities, and consumers may be allowed to purchase items and tickets at a dynamic market value which, in some cases, may be below face value or a default retail price. Furthermore, a market price may be adjusted by a user-specific price adjustment, on an individualized basis, to manage user satisfaction and provide incentives.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 25, 2011Publication date: September 29, 2011Inventors: JOEL TYLER MILNE, Alison Burnham, Larry Martin, Jason Wang, Adam Kanner
