Patent number: 10494782Abstract: A set of components that can be used to construct a structurally sound dock are disclosed. The components can be extruded and the components are shaped such that interconnected components provide support for the other components thereby alleviating weak points due to welded only joints. A fascia channel provides additional strength by including structures that improve the vertical and horizontal strength of the fascia channel. HDPE plastic inserts and sheaves provide sound dampening for metal to metal contact points. Other components include a corner connector, a post system and a hinge system. The focus of this disclosure is the corner connector.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2018Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Assignee: Wahoo Docks, LLCInventors: Harold Hawkins, III, Tim Osby, Michael Lyle

Patent number: 9201431Abstract: A tamper proof thermostat has a predetermined and permanently fixed maximum heating temperature and minimum cooling temperature associated with each portion of a preset schedule. A user may only select temperatures below the maximum heating temperature or above the minimum cooling temperature. The thermostat further receives a dedicated time signal broadcast from an external source. The broadcast is the exclusive source of time information for the thermostat, ensuring that a user is not able to manipulate the preset schedule.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2012Date of Patent: December 1, 2015Assignee: Chicago Controls Thermostats, Inc.Inventor: Michael Lyle
