Abstract: A remote control transmitter configured to operate with a vehicle controller. The transmitter is operable in an active mode and a passive mode and/or in the alternative embodiment the transmitter is operable as a one-way or a two-way transmitter. The transmitter is configured to switch from one mode, such as the passive or two-way mode, to the other mode, such as active or one-way mode, in response to at least one of a user activated signal or a battery threshold signal.

Abstract: The disclosed device is an additional, normally-closed relay positioned in line with the ignition switch and the functionality controlled by the OEM, normally-open relay. When the aftermarket system is in the disarmed state, the normally-closed relay is dormant in its closed position, thereby allowing the circuit to complete its intended loop. When the aftermarket security system is enabled, the normally-closed relay will open the current flow and prevent the current from reaching its target, thereby disrupting or disabling the operation of the vehicle function. If the normally-closed relay fails, it fails in its closed position, thereby not affecting the OEM system.

Abstract: A truss bracket for connecting a roof to a shipping container includes an initially flat rectangular sheet of material in which is formed a longitudinally extending fold line that divides the sheet of material into a first part and a second part that are disposed at a predetermined angle relative to one another when a fold is formed in the fold line. The first part is adapted to be secured to a vertical wall of a shipping container and the second part is adapted to be engaged to a roof. A plurality of flanges are stamped from the second part and are folded out at a ninety degree angle relative to the plane of the second part to enable connection of the second part to the roof. A house is made by joining plural shipping containers together and securing a roof to the shipping container by using the truss bracket.

Abstract: A remote control transmitter configured to operate with a vehicle controller. The transmitter is operable in an active mode and a passive mode. In the active mode the disarm/unlock command is sent by user activating a switch. In the passive mode the disarm/unlock command is automatically sent by the transmitter without the user having to activate any switches on the transmitter. The transmitter is configured to switch from the passive mode to the active mode in response to at least one of a user activated signal or a battery threshold signal.

Abstract: Stabilized flame retardant polymer compositions containing a hydrated metal compound, e.g., a metal hydroxide, as a flame retardant, when added an effective stabilizing amount of an amine oxide, a hydroxyl amine or mixtures thereof, exhibit desirable physical characteristics of pure polymers due to the stabilizer additives, including excellent color stability, while attaining desirable fire-retardance standards.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of a neo diol phosphite stabilizer by a direct/solvent-less method, wherein a neoalkyl chlorophosphite is reacted directly with a mono- or di-substituted hydroxylated aromatic compound, for neo diol phosphite product having little or no odor is provided. Also provided are polymeric compositions comprising a stabilizing amount of a neo diol phosphite having low to no odor.
