Patent number: 11414531Abstract: A method of manufacture of zinc monoglycerolate containing an incorporated modifier, and the product, the zinc monoglycerolate being in the form of agglomerates of crystallites, wherein the crystallite size based on the average coherence domain length is not more than 30 nm in the <100> direction, and not more than 60 nm in the <011> direction, as determined by the Scherrer equation via powder X-ray diffraction; and the aspect ratio computed by <100>/<011> coherent domain lengths is less than 0.65, preferably less than 0.56, in particular less than 0.44. Polymers containing this nucleating agent and methods for their production are also described. The zinc monoglycerolate is useful as a nucleating agent, and is very effective at low loading levels in polymers such as polypropylene.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2018Date of Patent: August 16, 2022Assignees: BASF SE, Micronisers Pty LtdInventors: Vidura Nalin Jayaratne, Terence William Turney, Murray Horton, Raphael Dabbous

Patent number: 10605504Abstract: A ducted separator in a compressor-based cooling assembly is connected to an oil/gas outlet of the compressor. The ducted separator is a pipe with at least one bend in it which collects oil in a manner which can achieve 98% oil carry over efficiency. The ducted separator may optionally be connected to a second phase separator such as a centrifugal cylinder. In that case, the height of the centrifugal cylinder can be significantly reduced compared with conventional arrangements. Alternatively, a simpler impingement surface such as one or more baffles may be used as the second phase separator or just a collection chamber.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2014Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: J&E HALL LIMITEDInventors: Terence William Thomas Young, John Michael Roll

Patent number: 9665157Abstract: Systems and methods for determining a battery-level of an electronic device and conserving the battery charge of the electronic device are disclosed. The battery consumption of an electronic device may be reduced when the user or the device learns via user input or determines via prediction that the battery will be depleted before the next possible charge cycle. Reducing battery consumption could be accomplished by accessing an application requiring less power consumption and/or delaying post-processing of sensor data related to that application, for example a camera application. Prediction of battery life could include determining the time to the next expected battery charge and delaying the processing of sensor data until the electronic device is plugged in and charging or has reached a predetermined charge level.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2014Date of Patent: May 30, 2017Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Terence William Hampson, Evan Robert Hildreth, Babak Forutanpour

Publication number: 20160305671Abstract: This invention relates to a domestic hot water installation (1, 51, 61, 71) comprising a hot water cylinder (3), an external heating circuit (4) such as a boiler (5) in combination with a heat exchanger (7), a pump (9), and a control circuit (11). The control circuit comprises a pair of sensors (15, 17), at least one of which is a temperature sensor, and a programmable controller (13) in communication with the sensors. The programmable controller has a processor (19), an accessible memory (21), and means (23) to operate the pump. The programmable controller monitors the data from the sensors and accurately calculates the amount of hot water that has been delivered to the hot water cylinder. When the correct amount of water, according to a domestic hot water profile, has been delivered to the hot water cylinder, the programmable controller stops hot water from being delivered into the tank by shutting off the pump.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2014Publication date: October 20, 2016Inventors: Terence William Madigan, Terence Gerard Madigan

Patent number: 9283469Abstract: Disclosed is a dasher-boards assembly with capability to absorb impacts of players crashing into the boards. The glass pane surmounting the boards can tip away from the ice, against a spring, and then resiliently return to its normal (upright) position. The spring is a bar-spring, which not only is deflectable to provide the resilience, but also has the capability to support and position the pane with respect to the dasher-board. The bar-spring can be used when the pane is flush-mounted with respect to the dasher-board, or when the pane is set-back from the ice-side of the dasher-board.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2013Date of Patent: March 15, 2016Assignee: 1196501 ONTARIO INC.Inventors: Terence William Riley, Sean James Riley
