  • Publication number: 20130218606
    Abstract: A system, method, and non-transitory computer readable medium for enabling the evaluation of insurance application data. More particularly, the present disclosed subject matter pertains to a mechanism enabled to obtain application data regarding an individual seeking insurance, to evaluate the application data in regard to one or more product rules, and to assign a rating class for the individual accordingly. The individual is assigned the optimum rating class and this rating class is lowered, as necessary, based upon whether the application meets one or more of the product rule conditions. Additionally, the disclosed subject matter provides for a rule authoring interface which permits product rules to be created via natural-language input.

  • Publication number: 20130191168
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer readable medium for enabling the receipt of data for an insurance application. More particularly, a mechanism enabled to configure an insurance application into a product questionnaire, to present the product questionnaire via an interface to enable an individual to input disclosure data obtained from an insurance applicant, and to provide the received disclosure data in an industry standard format.

  • Patent number: 6991436
    Abstract: An air compressor having a cooling fan that cools both a pump and an electric motor. Baffle compress air against the top of the motor, causing it to break up and flow around fours sides of the motor and through the motor. The pump includes an elongate intake tube or muffler that attenuates pump intake noise. A compressor tank for the air compressor includes a roll cage for protecting a condensate valve for the compressor tank. The compressor tank includes a rim base formed on the bottom of the compressor tank that permits the compressor tank to rest on a surface without additional supports or legs. Controls and gauges are mounted in the bottom clamshell piece, and openings on a top fit around the controls and gauges. The top and the bottom are aligned with guides so that the controls and gauges may be properly aligned with the openings.

  • Patent number: 6905315
    Abstract: An air compressor includes a valve plate with cooling fins and a piston also having cooling fins. The valve plate includes an integral and angled valve plate outlet. The angling of the valve plate outlet reduces turbulence and improves compressed air flow. The pump frame of the gas compressor includes a lipless bearing bore, decreasing the distance between the portion of the frame supporting the bearing and the piston. The pump frame is flat such that a portion of the cylinder is over a portion of the motor. The flatness of this arrangement increases the strength of the pump frame. The piston bearing bore includes two clamping structures having screw holes. Each screw hole is formed from a series half-cylinder or barrel portions, which individually do not form the complete circumference of a hole. Such a screw hole does not require a core pull on casting, lowering manufacturing costs. The piston includes a piston seal which is angled with respect to the piston.
