  • Patent number: 11471789
    Abstract: A chromatograph is provided for identifying components of a mixture. Components are identified by different rates of adsorption and/or desorption with a material phase. In one embodiment, an electrical lead is connected to the material phase for supplying an electrical charge to the material phase. The electrical charge alters the rate of adsorption/desorption of the components with the material phase. In another embodiment, the material phase is disposed between two conductors with electrical leads connected to each of the conductors. A charge differential between the two conductors alters the rate of adsorption and/or desorption of components with the material phase.

  • Publication number: 20210028954
    Abstract: A wireless enabled load control device having integrated voice control is disclosed. The load control device may be connected to a variety of local and remote devices, including lighting devices and smart appliances, as well as various cloud service platforms. The load control device may receive a voice command from a user. The load control device may transmit the voice command to a first cloud service platform for processing to determine an instruction included in the voice command. The determined instruction may be provided to a second cloud service platform connected to the first cloud service platform. The first and second cloud service platforms may be connected to a device to be controlled based on the voice command. The cloud service platforms can adjust an operation of the device based on the determined instruction.

  • Patent number: 9657826
    Abstract: An electric drive system for a vehicle includes an electric motor with a stator disposed circumferentially around a rotor. The rotor connects to a support frame that extends radially inwards to couple the rotor to a first planetary gear assembly and a second planetary gear assembly. The stator, rotor and the first and second planetary gear assemblies are disposed within a stationary housing. The first and second planetary gear assemblies couple to first and second clutch packs respectively, that are disposed outside of the stationary housing.

  • Publication number: 20070162951
    Abstract: Content which users may wish to receive may be distributed with interrupting content such that the use of the content on the user's receiver may be interrupted and replaced with the interrupting content. The content which the user wishes to receive may be software, audio, video, graphics or other material and the interrupting content in one embodiment of the prevent invention may be advertisements. In this way, the user's receiver may be utilized to determine when it is appropriate to interrupt the interruptible content with the interrupting content. This may provide a convenient mechanism for reduced price or free distribution of a wide variety of media currently provided only in physical form or only for free without any compensation to the content provider.

  • Publication number: 20060273555
    Abstract: A foldable trailer includes a base frame, a canopy frame having a pivot end pivotally connected to a front end of the base frame, a power end rearwardly and upwardly opposite to the pivot end portion, and a weight portion interposed between the power and pivot ends and having a weight area. A biasing member includes a pivoted end pivotally mounted to the base frame, and a connected end connected to the weight area, and is compressible towards the base frame when the weight area is turned by a weight force that is generated by applying a power force to depress the power end downwards. The weight area is located such that a force component imparted by the weight force is greater than, equal to, and smaller than a biasing force of the biasing member when the power end is in an unfolded position, a critical position, and a folded position, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20050138592
    Abstract: Various methods and apparatuses are described in which a printed circuit board has trace lines. Input/output pads on the printed circuit board may have approximately the same width dimension as a trace line connected to those input/output pads. A first group of vias in the printed circuit board may be aligned into a planar line with a set corridor spacing between adjacent of groups of vias also aligned into a planar line with the same axis to allow a routing space for lines in multiple layers of the printed circuit board to occur in the routing space established by the set corridor spacing.
