  • Publication number: 20230182248
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a chuck configured to hold a wafer and a tilt plate disposed beneath the chuck and adjustably connected to the chuck by a pair of upper screws and a pair of lower screws separately arranged in opposite corners of the chuck. Screw heads of the pair of upper screws rest against a top surface of the chuck, such that clockwise rotation of one of the upper screws pushes a corresponding corner of the chuck toward the tilt plate. Screw heads of the pair of lower screws rest against a bottom surface of the chuck, such that counter-clockwise rotation of one of the lower screws pushes a corresponding corner of the chuck away from the tilt plate.

  • Patent number: 10104514
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing time-shifted data downloads over cellular networks are disclosed. The downloads can be selected using an application or other data consuming application with a “download later” feature, or similar. The application can register with a data shifting service (DSS) to receive a low-priority, or “0-rated,” download of the data. The DSS can place the application in queue waiting for predetermined network conditions (e.g., network utilization to fall below a predetermined level). Upon occurrence of the predetermined network conditions (e.g., network utilization falling below a predetermined rate), the DSS can inform the application that a low-priority download window is available. The application can then download the data from a content provider. The DSS can enable cellular networks to increase average network utilization, while reducing peak demand. The system may offer low-priority downloads at reduced cost, or free, to incentivize use of the DSS.

  • Patent number: 9086214
    Abstract: A system for providing thermal protection for an LED light module and methods for manufacturing the same are described herein. The thermally protected LED light module may include a heat sink assembly thermally coupled to an LED light source, and a thermal protector. The thermal protector may be connected to the heat sink assembly by a mechanical fastener. Further, the thermal protector is electrically coupled to the LED light source and a power source where the thermal protector breaks the power provided to the LED light source from the power source when the thermal protector detects heat at or above a threshold temperature.

  • Publication number: 20130336085
    Abstract: An improved mixing bottle comprised of at least two chambers, a top chamber and a bottom chamber. Said chambers may be separated from one another, on the outside, by a freshness seal and, on the inside, by a permeable membrane. The top chamber interior will contain a wide mouth funnel with a wide end and a narrow end. While the freshness seal is still in tact, the narrower end of the funnel may point towards the bottom chamber and be situated somewhere just above the permeable membrane.

  • Patent number: 8602602
    Abstract: An LED downlight provides a more evenly distributed light output. The LED downlight includes an LED light source, such as one or more LEDs, LED die packages, or LED chip on board modules, an upper reflector, a lower reflector disposed below the upper reflector, and a lens disposed between the upper reflector and the lower reflector. The lens includes several features that help disperse light emitted by the LED light source. The lens includes a diffusion element, such as a pigment, bulk scattering, prismatic, inlays, or another method for diffusing light through a lens. The lens is curved in a concave manner when viewed from the light source. The curve of the lens can be tangent to the physical cutoff of the lower reflector to more evenly distribute light emitted by the LED light source and to improve the visual effect of an evenly luminous lens.

  • Patent number: 8523409
    Abstract: Improved installation features for recessed light fixtures including downlights are provided. The recessed light fixture includes a housing and a lighting module removably attachable to the housing. The lighting module includes a flexible conduit connector that provides a pathway for electrical connections from outside the lighting module to access the inner portion of the lighting module. The conduit connector is disposed on an angled surface that improves the ease of installation and removal of the lighting module and reduces the required installation space of the recessed light fixture. The housing includes improved torsion spring receivers having angled edges for guiding the torsion spring into the proper position. The torsion spring receivers also include retaining tabs having a curved edge that better holds the torsion spring in place and also provides additional clearance for installing and removing the lighting module.

  • Patent number: 8519883
    Abstract: A motion detector system includes the ability to detect motion through the use of a Doppler radar sensor or a combination of PIR sensors and a Doppler radar sensor. The system includes an outdoor light fixture having one or more lamps and a housing coupled to the outdoor light fixture. The housing includes a Doppler radar sensor and a microprocessor for analyzing the signals received by the Doppler radar sensor. Alternatively, the housing includes a combination of PIR sensors and a Doppler radar sensor and a microprocessor for analyzing the signals received from these sensors. The lamps in the light fixture are activated when either the PIR sensor or the Doppler radar sensor generates a signal indicating motion within the monitored area. Alternatively, the lamps can be activated when either the PIR sensor or the Doppler radar sensor senses predetermined number of motion activities over a limited time period.

  • Patent number: 8430533
    Abstract: A LED holder includes a planar base member to releasably couple the holder to the heat sink of a luminaire. The LED holder also includes a substrate that is coupled to the planar base member and has one or more LEDs disposed on the substrate and electrically coupled to the substrate. The substrate can be a printed circuit board and the LEDs can be discrete LEDs or an LED package. A cover panel is removably coupled to the planar base member and is designed to prevent access to the substrate and the LEDs when the luminaire powered on. The LED holder can also include a LED cover positioned over the LEDs and within the cover panel to limit access to the top side of the LEDs while permitting light emitted by the LEDs to pass through the LED cover.
