Patent number: 10496154Abstract: An active noise cancelling power supply to perform active noise cancelling of input power with noise to output power. The active noise cancelling power supply having a power transformation device receiving input power and converting the power to a voltage signal with a ripple. The active noise cancelling power supply has a ripple measuring device, which measures the ripple as the voltage signal with a ripple passes through the ripple measuring device producing a ripple signal. A controller with a data storage in communication with a processor, wherein computer instructions in the data storage are configured to instruct the processor to produce a first noise cancellation signal in volts or millivolts out of phase with the ripple signal and inject the first noise cancellation signal on the voltage signal with a ripple at a node forming a clean signal as output power.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2017Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Assignee: DEAN TECHNOLOGY, INC.Inventors: Lynn Edward Roszel, Craig Sean Dean, Scott Richard Wilson, Erik Steven Haugarth, Jan Simon Reuning

Patent number: 10355522Abstract: A multi-controllable high voltage power supply having a plurality of filters, a high voltage divider, and a processor with memory. The memory contains operating set points. The processor is configured to receive scaled voltage feedback signals from the high voltage divider, compare the scaled voltage feedback signals to the plurality of operating set points in memory, compute and store revised operating set points using the compared scaled voltage feedback signal, use the revised operating set points to simultaneously and automatically regulate output voltage to be within all operating set points, and generate an alert when output conditions exceed any operating set points.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2018Date of Patent: July 16, 2019Inventors: Craig Sean Dean, Lynn Edward Roszel, Scott Richard Wilson, Erik Steven Haugarth, Jan Simon Reuning

Patent number: 10027227Abstract: A power supply with digitally compensated circuit having a plurality of integrated circuits. The plurality of integrated circuits has a digitally variable slope controller to adjust charge time of an inductor and voltage distortion and an adjustable voltage generator, which generates a modified voltage set point. The digitally compensated circuit has a comparator, which compares the modified voltage set point to a first feedback and turns off a comparator output signal when first feedback approaches or exceeds the modified voltage set point. An adjustable pulse width modulator generator produces an output voltage. A current monitor receives output voltage and provides a second feedback, which is transferred to the plurality of integrated circuits. An inductor receives output voltage and generates variable output power for a load, utilizing the digitally variable slope controller to reduce oscillation, system disturbances, and subharmonic oscillations over a dynamic voltage input range.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2017Date of Patent: July 17, 2018Assignee: Dean Technology, Inc.Inventors: Craig Sean Dean, Lynn Edward Roszel, Scott Richard Wilson, Erik Steven Haugarth, Jan Simon Reuning

Patent number: 9202113Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for adjudicating votes made on voter-marked paper ballots. Voter-marked paper ballots may be scanned to obtain optical image data of the voter-marked paper ballots. The optical image may be analyzed to determine the votes contained in the ballot for tabulation purposes. One or more votes on the ballot may be identified as requiring adjudication by an election official. Adjudication information, according to various embodiments, is appended to the optical images of the voter-marked paper ballots such that the image of the ballot and the image of the adjudication information may be viewed in an optical image. The optical image may be stored in a file format that allows the ballot image and the appended adjudication information to be viewed using readily available image viewers.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 2014Date of Patent: December 1, 2015Assignee: Dominion Voting Systems, Inc.Inventors: James Hoover, Justin Bales, Steven Bennett, Eric Coomer, Sean Dean, Geneice Mathews, Benjamin Rice
