Patent number: 9114415Abstract: A system and method for dispensing sprayable material such as paint and other liquefied products. The system includes a dispenser such as a marking stick or other commercially available dispenser. The dispenser is configured to accept a container housed inside a cartridge and filled with sprayable material. The sprayable material is sprayed through a valve and spray tip at one end of the cartridge. An electrically powered motor assembly is removably coupled to the cartridge. The motor is used to power a pump that is incorporated in the cartridge to draw the sprayable material from the container. The material is pumped from the container and delivered through a tube to a spray head. The pressure generated by the pump inside the container and the tube are sufficient to spray the product through the valve and spray tip when valve is opened.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2014Date of Patent: August 25, 2015Assignee: Aervoe Industries, Inc.Inventors: Mark Williams, Michael Joseph Bennett

Publication number: 20150216021Abstract: A synchronized speed bump illumination system and method is provided that includes powered LEDs that may be seen by individuals at night and in low light conditions, or during the day to increase visibility and direct a driver's attention to the speed bump. The speed bump system comprises sections each with a housing having a flat bottom surface and an elevated top surface to form the bump. A plurality of LEDs provides illumination to light windows embedded in the top surface of the sections. A wireless remote control is used to simultaneously transmit signals to an independent circuit in each section so that the groupings of LEDs in each section provide a predefined illumination pattern among the sections.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 24, 2014Publication date: July 30, 2015Applicant: Aervoe Industries, Inc.Inventors: Michael Joseph Bennett, Robert Haelsig

Patent number: 9046229Abstract: A stackable LED flare and system for use at night, in low light conditions or during the day where a lighted flare provides greater visibility. The flare comprises a multi-sided housing with a panel on each side and having a top and a base. It has a plurality of LEDs aligned in windows positioned in at least one of the panels. The flare includes a re-chargeable battery encased in the housing for powering the flare and a circuit for delivering power and operational control from the battery to the LEDs upon activation by a switch. A set of contacts positioned on the outside of the housing deliver a charge to the battery. The contacts are configured to allow multiple flares to be stacked and charged simultaneously. The system also includes a charging station that accommodates a stack of two or more flares during the charging operation.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2013Date of Patent: June 2, 2015Assignee: Aervoe Industries, Inc.Inventors: Michael Joseph Bennett, Troy Wilson, Robert Haelsig, Chuanzhong He

Patent number: 5642160Abstract: A digital image capture system for a photo identification card wherein a housing contains a video camera and a tray that selectively moves through a formed slot in the housing between a first fully inserted position within the housing and a second fully open position outside of the housing. The tray has a formed recess that receives an insert plate. The insert plate has a formed opening for holding a photo identification card of a person. Different insert plates could be utilized under the teachings of the present invention having different-sized formed openings for different-sized photo identification cards. The photo identification card is placed into the formed opening and then the tray is slid into the fully inserted position in the housing. A magnet in the housing firmly holds the tray in the fully inserted position and this fully inserted position is sensed by a micro-switch that becomes activated to turn on a pair of opposing lamps to fully illuminate the photo identification card in the tray.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 1994Date of Patent: June 24, 1997Assignee: Mikohn Gaming CorporationInventor: Michael Joseph Bennett
