Patent number: 7219449Abstract: A method for controlling footwear, comprising cushioning a transient force during use of the footwear at a first period of a gait cycle, storing energy from said cushioning, and releasing the stored energy during use of the footwear at a second period of the gait cycle, and after said transient force has subsided. The control can be electronic, mechanical or hydraulic, and is preferably dependent on a sensed gait cycle phase. The control may be adaptive to the user or the use of the footwear. The stored energy can be used to assist in locomotion, to generate electrical energy, to drive a heat pump, or simply dissipated.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2004Date of Patent: May 22, 2007Assignee: ProMDX Technology, Inc.Inventors: Steven M. Hoffberg, Ronald Fisher

Patent number: 6180223Abstract: A method for the densification of a porous structure comprises providing the structure with a body of material (13, 14) which includes a susceptor element foil (14) which is more susceptible to heating by electromagnetic radiation than the other material (13) of the body, exposing said porous structure to hydrocarbon gas and simultaneously applying an electromagnetic field to said porous structure whereby said susceptor element (14) at least in part causes heating of the porous structure to a temperature at which the gas infiltrating the porous structure deposits carbon within the porous structure.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 1998Date of Patent: January 30, 2001Assignee: Dunlop LimitedInventors: Ronald Fisher, Keith Williams
