  • Patent number: 9308571
    Abstract: An apparatus comprising a first substrate having a first surface, a second substrate having a second surface facing the first surface and an array of metallic raised features being in contact with the first surface to the second surface, a portion of the raised features having a mechanical bend or buckle plastic deformation produced therein via a compressive force. One or more of the metallic raised features has one or more surface singularities therein prior to the mechanical bend or the buckle plastic deformation produced by the compressive force.

  • Publication number: 20150314848
    Abstract: A foot-operated propulsion system for small watercraft, such as kayaks. The propulsion system includes a pedal assembly that controls motion of a fluke fin that is submerged beneath the waters surface. The pedal assembly is located in the bow of the watercraft and the paddler works the pedals with his feet. Operating the pedal assembly causes a force to be transmitted to a drive unit located in the stern of the craft, which then controls movement of linkages in the fluke assembly, to force the submerged fluke fin to swing upward and downward, emulating the motion of flukes on a whale, and thereby propelling the watercraft along the surface of the water.

  • Publication number: 20150221058
    Abstract: Systems and methods using intelligent barcodes for processing mail, packages, or other items in transport are provided. Systems and methods allowing end-to-end visibility of a mail stream by uniquely identifying and tracking mail pieces are also provided. Systems and methods include the use of standardized intelligent barcodes on mail pieces, a seamless process for mail acceptance, continuous mail piece tracking, and feedback on mail quality in real time. In one embodiment, systems and methods using intelligent barcodes allow a mailing service to provide enhanced acceptance, sorting, tracking, address correction, forwarding, and delivery services. In another embodiment, systems and methods using intelligent barcodes allow a mailing service to identify a mail piece as undeliverable-as-addressed (UAA) and determine a final disposition for the mail piece.

  • Patent number: 9090146
    Abstract: A motor vehicle has a body and a glazing, wherein the body is adapted to receive the glazing and have the glazing secured to the body. The glazing has at least one electrical component and at least one soldered electrical connector located thereon. The soldered electrical connector is arranged to be clamped between the glazing and a vehicle component upon securing the glazing to the body. This is achieved by including a resilient member, a protrusion, a flange or a lip on the vehicle to engage the soldered connection. The resilient member may be of an elastomeric material to provide a biasing force and thereby provide additional retaining support. The resilient member may be held in place by bonding. The soldered connection may be a lead free solder composition. Insulation of the soldered connection may be included. The arrangement reduces likelihood of damage to the soldered connection due to vibration.
