Patents by Inventor Scott T. Carroll

Scott T. Carroll 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: 8627563
    Abstract: A process relating to a one step low pressure injection molding method of encapsulating high voltage circuitry while incorporating a unique recessed high voltage connector contact means within the injection molding material, greatly reducing the component size, while increasing the capabilities of this type of circuitry. The process reduces the manufacturing time and maintains a clean sealed contact point for repeated usage by the means of a conductive rubber slug. An additional advantage is by creating cavities through the circuit board; axially leaded high voltage components may be conveniently mounted without additional assembly components while being fully encapsulated.

  • Patent number: 8564986
    Abstract: A current mode output control can have a current mode (CM) region of the high voltage output curve (VI) slope controlled by component selection and arrangement in the construction of high voltage power supplies. The controlled CM current slope output, the tapped multiplier feedback network, and the subsequent output voltage correction network, yields a power supply with the desired VM and CM output characteristics that is significantly less expensive to construct and more efficient than a power supply built using conventional construction techniques.

  • Publication number: 20120017436
    Abstract: A method for the selective encapsulation of electronic components on a printed circuit board comprising, in one embodiment, the steps of delivering the printed circuit board to an encapsulating nest at room temperature; damming the target areas with a dam resin having a latent curing agent and deposited in the shape of walls of predetermined heights, according to the desired fill heights; dispensing a fill resin to fill the dammed areas; and curing the dam and fill resins for a suitable amount of time. In a different embodiment, the invention comprises the additional steps of laying resin beads, each in a position corresponding to the footprint of each target component; and of positioning the target components over the beads and soldering the components.

  • Publication number: 20080248669
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a connector housing for high voltage wires, either single ended or double ended with an integrated connector. Other features of the present invention include integration of a deep recessed high voltage connector contact for an arc and leakage resistant high voltage connection point, use of a female socket pin embedded at the base of the connector. The socket pin is co-molded into the connection end of the body, or it is co-molded or press fitted into a hole at the end of the connector housing.

  • Publication number: 20070219932
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of providing current energy consumers with a method by which they are able to pay for renewable energy from Cooperative Energy Farms and Virtual Net Metering. Power Output Data is sent to the Ratepayer via Internet. Power Out-put Data is sent to the Utility Company from the Cooperative Energy Farms. This system provides the average power consumer to invest in renewable energy without the prohibitive expense and without having to move their residences to windy or south facing hills for wind turbines or solar energy grids. The privately owned energy generation plots (Cooperative Energy Farm) provides a continuous source of energy sent in to the pre-existing energy grid. This energy would be paid for by largely urban rate payers and would act to provide renewable energy sources without the expense and destructive results of fossil fuel usage.
