Abstract: Disclosed is a light bulb which utilizes LEDs which replaces an incandescent light bulb in a fixture for incandescent light bulbs. The LED light bulb includes a multi-faceted head on which multiple LEDs are placed, with the multi-faceted head being in contact with heat dissipation structures. The heat dissipation structures include a heat transfer column which extends from the LEDs to the base of the bulb. A removable cover is enclosed which has openings for air circulation within the globe of the light bulb.

Abstract: Disclosed is a light bulb which utilizes LEDs which replaces an incandescent light bulb in a fixture for incandescent light bulbs. The LED light bulb includes a multiple fins on a globe base, with an LED light on an outward facing side of each fin. The fins are in contact with heat dissipation structures, and they are adjacent to air vents which aid in heat dissipation. The heat dissipation structures include a heat transfer column which extends from the LEDs to the base of the bulb. A removable cover is enclosed which has openings for air circulation within the globe of the light bulb.

Abstract: Disclosed is a light bulb which utilizes LEDs which replaces an incandescent light bulb in a fixture for incandescent light bulbs. The LED light bulb includes an optic which can be shaped to direct light to the side, and in different directions from the LED light source. Heat dissipation structures include a heat transfer column which extends from the LED to the base of the bulb, and fins which surround the optic or the support cone around the optic. A removable cover is enclosed which has openings for air circulation within the globe of the light bulb.

Abstract: An optic for producing an asymmetrical beam of light for restricting light output to an area below a midplane of the optic, and for directing light to the sides or down from the midplane.

Abstract: An electronic automobile proximity viewer for with a viewscreen mounted on a dashboard of an automobile, and one or more digital camera units mounted at peripheral locations of an automobile. From the view screen the use can select which image from which camera unit to view, and can direct the selected camera unit to zoom in on an object near the automobile, including zooming in to regions of the selected image which are not in the center of the image.

Abstract: The invention is an electronic viewer for documents for use by visually impaired viewers. The unit includes a digital camera lens unit and a digital viewing screen unit for placement over a document. A zoom function allows the user to zoom to the lower center, to the right, left, lower left, or lower right of the screen in order to give the user inside the door a better view of portions of the document being viewed.

Abstract: The invention is an electronic remote baby viewer for placement near a baby or child, so that a person interested in monitoring the baby can view the baby from another room of a house, or from outside the house. The unit includes a zoom function which zooms to the lower center, to the right, left, lower left, or lower right of the screen in order to give the user a view of those regions in order to better see a baby. The unit can be mounted crib side, or in a position to view a baby in a car seat in an automobile.

Abstract: The invention is an electronic viewer for placement in a door so that a person inside a residence may view, on an electronic screen, a person who is outside the door. The unit includes a zoom function which zooms to the lower center, to the right, left, lower left, or lower right of the screen in order to give the user inside the door a better view of a person or persons outside the door.

Abstract: The invention is an electronic security system for placement in a building so that a person may view, on an electronic screen, an image from one of several digital cameras placed around the building. The unit includes a zoom function which zooms to the lower center, to the right, left, lower left, or lower right of the screen in order to give the user inside the door a better view of a person or persons viewed in a digital camera inside or outside the building.

Abstract: An electronic towing ball viewer for placement near a towing ball on the exterior of a vehicle, so that a person backing a towing vehicle toward a trailer hitch may see the ball as it approaches the trailer hitch. The unit includes a zoom function which zooms to the lower center, to the right, left, lower left, or lower right of the screen in order to give the user a view of those regions in order to better see a tow ball and trailer hitch.

Abstract: An automated portfolio management system and method which manages data in a database, and populates the database with data from a data feed off the Internet. The system utilizes double leveraging of funds and purchased index puts as insurance against market downturns, to generate a guaranteed high yield. The double leveraging is accomplished by selling covered calls and using a formula to determine the maximum amount to borrow against the portfolio, and using income from both sources to purchase additional stock. The high yield from the portfolio is protected from market downturns by index puts.

Abstract: Disclosed is an air make-up unit mounted within the confines of a conventional outside wall of a frame building between the 16" on-center studs. The unit includes a rotary blower with a horizontal tangential discharge, the latter having heating elements therein and being encased in a vertical wall of insulation which extends within an insulated air chamber defined by a telescoping outer casing. Positive air pressure is maintained within the building by air-pressure-sensitive controls located within the building and controlling the two-speed motor. The latter is thermostatically controlled to be operated at a slower speed when colder weather prevails. It is also controlled and energized by a humidistat located within the building to force outside air into the building and diminish the humidity therein when needed.

Abstract: A readily adjustable machine which continuously produces corrugated flexible metal tubing from very light gauge metal and of various diameters. A warping ring receives therewithin a longitudinally corrugated narrow strip of formable metal of light gauge and warps the same helically to produce convolutions by means of a helical warping surface which extends into one of the longitudinal corrugations. The size of the tube produced can be varied by merely substituting a warping ring of a different size. A uniquely shaped pair of die-forming rollers have lock-seam forming surfaces which are adjustable relative to each other to provide variation in the degree to which the seam will permit and withstand axial torque. The lock seam is constructed to be symmetrical about the neutral axis of the corrugation and about the slope line of the common corrugation leg of adjacent convolutions which it constitutes.

Abstract: A semi-automatic sheet metal forming machine for forming light gauge metal having a bed formed of a plurality of adjustable and interchangeable spaced spacer plates of various widths, a forming bar having a plurality of removable and interchangeable forming fingers of various widths, and a clamping bar including a plurality of removable slidably mounted clamping fingers of various widths, the clamping bar and forming bar being hydraulically operated and synchronized for semi-automatic repeated forming operations. By adjusting and utilizing different width combinations of the clamping and forming fingers and spacer plates, an operator can perform almost any desired sheet metal forming operation which heretofore would have required separate and expensive special dies.
