  • Patent number: 8380901
    Abstract: A wireless USB hub for connecting a plurality of remote peripheral devices to a computer for communication therewith without the need to physically connect the peripheral devices to the hub via a cable connection. The wireless USB hub includes a receiver for receiving wireless data transmissions from one or more remote peripheral devices. The wireless USB hub further includes a hub controller for passing appropriate peripheral device information to a USB upstream port and then to a computer.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20050016985
    Abstract: An electrically operated scented wax holder that forms a receptacle for receiving unmelted blocks of wax which are heated to the melting point and thereafter maintained at a safe temperature by a temperature-regulated electrical heating element. The wax receptacle is removable mounted on a base section that houses a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistor which has a transition temperature substantially higher than the melting point of the wax to insure that the wax is rapidly melted, but substantially below the temperature that would constitute a danger to a human who might touch the exterior surface of the warmer, or constitute a fire hazard. The heating element is preferably placed in thermal contact with a contact pad having high thermal conductivity that is in turn placed closely adjacent to the wax receptacle, thereby efficiently transferring heat from the electrically operated temperature regulated heating element to the wax in the receptacle.

  • Publication number: 20050007896
    Abstract: A CD changer consisting of a disk storage unit, two standard disk drives with extendable access trays, and a disk transport mechanism for moving individual disks between either access tray and a selected storage location in a warehouse where disks are densely stored in side-by-side vertical stacks above the two disk drives. A disk carrier mechanism moves each disk between a selected storage location and a transfer location positioned above an extended access tray of one of the drives. The disk carrier moves each disk vertically between the transfer location and an intermediate location horizontally aligned with the selected storage location, and moves the disk horizontally between the intermediate position and the transfer location.
