  • Publication number: 20070163183
    Abstract: The Flow Clean Gutter Strainer System allows an eaves mounted gutter system to eject any debris that would otherwise block the function of a downspout and cause the gutter system to fail. When the strainer is clean, rainwater will flow through the strainer and down the downspout. When debris is present in the gutter, rainwater will carry the debris toward the strainer. Debris will accumulate on the strainer as long as there is an adequate flow velocity passing through the strainer and down the downspout. Once the strainer becomes clogged with debris, the flow pattern changes to carry the debris away and eject it through the debris ejection flow path. After the strainer cleans itself, rainwater once again flows unobstructed down the downspout. Additionally, the system allows for site adaptations that take into consideration prevailing wind direction, erosion, appearance, desired debris pile, and other factors.

  • Publication number: 20060036994
    Abstract: A method for manipulating a hierarchical model comprising a set of linked nodes, each represented by a graphic object on a display, is provided. The method comprises storing a node registry including data identifying nodes in the hierarchical model as well as the relationship between the nodes, displaying a representation of the hierarchical model to a user, and detecting a user selection of at least one displayed node. The method further includes detecting the position of a pointer on said display, displaying to a user, in dependence on the pointer position, an indication of a plurality of potential drop zones of a target node, each representing a potential target operation on the target node, detecting selection of one of said potential drop zones of said target node, and performing the target operation represented by the selected drop zone so as to add the at least one selected node in a particular relationship to said target node in said hierarchical model.

  • Patent number: 6580823
    Abstract: An image map Java Bean or ActiveX control has a display image property and a mapping image property. The mapping image comprises a plurality of regions colored from a pre-determined sequence of colors. When instantiated the image map displays the display image. The image map is, responsive to user interaction with the display image, to obtain a coordinate in the display image and to reading an index color of a corresponding coordinate in the mapping image. If the index color is from the pre-determined sequence of colors, the image map indicates user selection of a region of the display image by highlighting the region.

  • Patent number: 4449497
    Abstract: A capacitor discharge ignition system is provided with a control arrangement to prevent operation of an engine at excessive speeds. For example, when the engine exceeds a predetermined speed of operation, the control arrangement is effective to terminate the generation of the ignition firing pulses to the spark plug of the engine. The control arrangement includes a capacitor connected at one end to the cathode of an SCR switching device that controls the discharge of a charging capacitor into an ignition coil. The other end of the capacitor is connected in the triggering circuit of the SCR. The capacitor discharge ignition system is arranged to charge the charging capacitor during a first half cycle of operation of one polarity and subsequently to discharge the capacitor into the ignition coil by triggering the SCR during the following half cycle of operation of opposite polarity.
