Paul Ruggiero has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10702709
    Abstract: A cryogenic magnet structure includes at least two superconducting coils that are substantially symmetric about a central axis and on opposite sides of a median plane. At least one cryostat contains the superconducting coils; and a magnetic yoke surrounds the superconducting coils and contains at least a portion of a chamber, wherein the median plane extends through the chamber. At least one integral maintenance boot assembly is in thermal contact with the superconducting coils and is configured to preserve a sealed vacuum in the cryostat; and a cryogenic refrigerator is in thermal contact with the maintenance boot assembly and is configured to cool the superconducting coils below their critical superconducting temperatures and is configured for removal from thermal contact with the integral maintenance boot assembly without breaking the sealed vacuum in the cryostat.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5211479
    Abstract: A pacifier thermometer having one or more electrical sensors within the pacifier nipple and digital measurement and display units external to the nipple is provided. An insulating nipple core can be utilized to improve the speed and accuracy of sensor response. Two or more sensors along with digital logic selection of the highest constant reading can be used to avoid false low readings. Additional conventional features can be provided as well.
