Patent number: 9667012Abstract: A bonding device electrically bonds metallic surfaces through serrated metal teeth which embed into each metal surface as a fastener is tightened. A sealing material circumferentially outward and inward from the teeth create an air-tight and water-tight seal around the teeth, protecting the bonding location. The device can have an extended central collar extending axially from the through-hole in the center of the device, which will allow it to be installed in holes, or on a stud without the use of adhesives or other retaining methods.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2015Date of Patent: May 30, 2017Inventors: Michael Strizki, Jason Snyder, James Strizki

Patent number: 8777538Abstract: A bonding fastener having two components which electrically bonds metallic surfaces through serrated metal teeth on the underside of the head of the first component and on the inside surface of the second component which embed into each metal surface as a fastener is tightened. In one embodiment, the fastener is a nut and bolt combination, and in another embodiment the fastener is a two-part rivet. A sealing material circumferentially outward from the teeth on both the first component and second component creates an air-tight and water-tight seal around the teeth, protecting the bonding location from air and water infiltration from the outside. The second component also has an internal seal, sealing around the shank of the first component to prevent axial infiltration of air or water along the shank and protecting the bonding locations from corrosion from contaminants entering along that route.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2013Date of Patent: July 15, 2014Assignee: Renewable Energy Holdings, LLCInventors: Michael Strizki, Jason Snyder, James Strizki

Publication number: 20090189445Abstract: An integrated system of renewable energy management and storage that receives direct current generated from renewable sources and intelligently routes the electrical power between a direct current circuit and an alternating current circuit, and at the same time determines the optimal routing for electrical storage based on usage and demand. Electrical power from the direct current circuit can be converted to alternating current electrical power and supplied to the alternating current circuit, or vice versa. Electrical power from either the direct current circuit or the alternating current can be stored in the energy storage subsystem. Electric energy can be further converted to and stored as gaseous hydrogen and can supply for other applications that consume gaseous hydrogen. The system can work with a connection to a utility grid or as a stand-alone system.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 22, 2009Publication date: July 30, 2009Applicant: Renewable Energy Holdings, LLCInventor: Michael Strizki

Patent number: 7540892Abstract: A system for generating hydrogen gas utilizes a volume exchange housing for the storage of a fuel material that reacts to generate hydrogen gas and a hydrogen separation chamber. The system includes a gas permeable membrane or membranes that allow hydrogen gas to pass through the membrane while preventing aqueous solutions from passing therethrough. The system is orientation independent. A throttle valve is also used to self regulate the reaction generating the hydrogen gas.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2006Date of Patent: June 2, 2009Assignee: Millennium Cell Inc.Inventors: Michael Strizki, Richard M.

Patent number: 7083657Abstract: The present invention relates to an improvement in a system for the generation of hydrogen by contacting an aqueous solution of a metal hydride salt with a hydrogen generation catalyst. In particular, the present invention relates to the incorporation within the system of a recycle line of water condensed from the fluid product to the feed line to be contacted with the catalyst. the internal recycle line permits the use of a more concentrated solution of metal hydride as it is diluted by the recycle line prior to contact with the catalyst.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2002Date of Patent: August 1, 2006Assignee: Millennium Cell, Inc.Inventors: Richard M.

Patent number: 6939529Abstract: A hydrogen generating system regulates its rate of hydrogen generation by monitoring one or more parameters of the hydrogen generation process and then providing relative movement between the fuel tank and the catalyst chamber so as to increase or decrease the rate of hydrogen generation. In the disclosed embodiments, the catalyst chamber is disposed in a tank containing the fuel. The relative movement provided moves the catalyst chamber toward the fuel solution so as to increase the rate of hydrogen generation and moves the catalyst chamber away from the fuel solution to decrease such generation. Advantageously, such self-regulation can be provided without an external power source and can be varied to meet the requirements of different commercial applications. The overall system can be readily fabricated using commercially available parts.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2002Date of Patent: September 6, 2005Assignee: Millennium Cell, Inc.Inventors: Michael Strizki, Shailesh Shah
