  • Patent number: 9622920
    Abstract: An article including a front region, a back region, and a chassis. The chassis may include an absorbent core having a front end edge and a back end edge. The front region and the back region may extend laterally outward beyond side edges of the chassis. The front region and the back region may abut to form a first seam and a second seam. At least one of the front region and the back region may include an elastic member. A first outer nonwoven layer of the front region and a second outer nonwoven layer of the back region may be folded to form an upper edge in the front and back regions such that a distal end of each of the first and second outer nonwoven layer may be disposed between the upper edge and the front and back end edges of the absorbent core, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20170095992
    Abstract: Drainage liners and geomembranes including the drainage liners are disclosed herein. The drainage liners have a woven scrim made of warp tapes and weft tapes, and have a plurality of high-denier strands each superimposed upon a warp tape or each superimposed upon a weft tape and each interwoven into the woven scrim by oppositely oriented tapes. The warp tapes or the weft tapes with superimposed high-denier strands thereon are spaced apart within the woven scrim by at least one tape of a same orientation, thereby defining a plurality of parallel channels for fluid flow between nearest neighboring high-denier strands.

  • Patent number: 9612268
    Abstract: Ground Potential Rise (GPR) systems and methods with depth sensing measure the GPR between the ground grid and the remote earth. Methods and systems described herein may provide a GPR measurement to an existing distance protection. A GPR system may comprise a set of potential transformers. The set of potential transformers may be coupled to different ground rods driven into the earth at different depths, respectively. One wire of the high voltage side of the potential transformer may be coupled to the ground grid of a substation, and the second wire of the potential transformer may be coupled to an insulated wire that is coupled to a ground rod or multiple of ground rods bonded together. The low voltage side of the potential transformer is used to connect Distance Relays, Voltage Relays, DFR or Alarms.
