Publication number: 20190367256Abstract: The present disclosure relates to, inter alia, a method of making a whipped formulation and the formulation. The method comprises: selecting an amount of a gas propellant co-mingled with one or more active agents. The gas propellant is dispersed in the formulation, and the formulation is filled under pressure into a package, which may be pressurized. The package has a selected amount of pressure (“pre-gas or cut-bag pressure”). The pressure maintains the gas propellant dispersed in the formulation and the pressurized package is under sufficient pressure such that the formulation may be expelled as a whipped formulation upon application of external force on said formulation in said package. The whipped formulation is characterized by providing a desired sensory impact to a user.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 11, 2017Publication date: December 5, 2019Applicants: Bayer Healthcare LLC, Formulated Solutions, LLCInventors: Stephen Baldwin, Scott Carpenter, Heidi Graham, Nanhye Kim, Tom Meyer, David Reynolds, Jerry Vancleave, Eric Dann, Thomas Dann, Renee Nelson, Brian Dann

Patent number: 10094288Abstract: A means of attachment applicable to mating parts which have substantially different coefficients of thermal expansion is disclosed. The means of attachment substantially reduces the friction between the mating surfaces while still keeping the mating parts centered with respect to one another. The approach is based on radial recessed faces wherein the radial faces slide relative to each other. There may be three or more recessed/raised faces on each mating component, which when mated, maintain the alignment between the mating parts while allowing differential growth of the mating parts. This approach also the provides a much larger bearing surface for the attachment than a radial pin/slot approach, for example, and substantially eliminates areas of high stress concentration. It is thus a more robust design for components that undergo many thousands of thermal cycles.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2013Date of Patent: October 9, 2018Assignee: ICR TURBINE ENGINE CORPORATIONInventor: Matthew Stephen Baldwin

Patent number: 8984895Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for a gas turbine spool design combining metallic and ceramic components in a way that controls clearances between critical components over a range of engine operating temperatures and pressures. In a first embodiment, a ceramic turbine rotor rotates just inside a ceramic shroud and separated by a small clearance gap. The ceramic rotor is connected to a metallic volute. In order to accommodate the differential rates of thermal expansion between the ceramic rotor and metallic volute, an active clearance control system is used to maintain the desired axial clearance between ceramic rotor and the ceramic shroud over the range of engine operating temperatures. In a second embodiment, a ceramic turbine rotor rotates just inside a ceramic shroud which is part of a single piece ceramic volute/shroud assembly.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2011Date of Patent: March 24, 2015Assignee: ICR Turbine Engine CorporationInventors: James B.

Publication number: 20140369527Abstract: A computer-implemented method of dynamic range control is disclosed. The method includes at a device with a display, displaying a volume (relative loudness level) control to control the volume level of an output audio signal of the device, the volume control including a dynamic resizable window control for controlling the dynamic range of the output audio signal. A method for adjusting dynamic range of an audio signal is also disclosed. The method includes providing an input audio signal with a first dynamic range, mapping the first dynamic range to a second dynamic range using a transfer function with a linear portion aligned to an average level of the input audio signal, and generating an output audio signal with the second dynamic range from the input audio signal.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2012Publication date: December 18, 2014Inventor: Stephen Baldwin
