  • Patent number: 11984771
    Abstract: A motor assembly is provided including a stator and a rotor. The stator includes a stator main body defining a longitudinal axis, stator teeth projecting radially from the stator main body, stator windings wound around the stator teeth, and two winding terminals provided for each stator tooth extending away from the stator main body substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis. A circuit board is oriented along a radial plane adjacent the stator. The circuit board includes a central through-hole through which a rotor shaft extends, at least one magnetic sensor mounted on a surface of the circuit board around the central through-hole configured to magnetically interface with the rotor, peripheral openings arranged to receive the winding terminals of the stator, and conductive routings extending from the peripheral openings to connect the stator windings in a series or a parallel configuration and/or a wye or a delta configuration.

  • Patent number: 11970385
    Abstract: A fuel transfer station may provide for the refilling of fuel canisters providing fuel to combustion powered equipment. The fuel transfer station may include a base, a frame coupled to the base, a first connection port and a second connection port provided in the base, and fluid flow lines connecting the first connection port and the second connection port. A supply tank may be supported by the frame and detachably connected to the first connection port. A fuel canister to be refilled may be detachably connected to the second connection port. Fuel contained in the supply tank may be selectively supplied to the fuel canister through the fluid flow lines in response to a pressure gradient drawing the fuel into the fuel canister.

  • Patent number: 8286925
    Abstract: A universal post having a tapered elongated member with a proximal end and a distal end such that the proximal end is larger in size than the distal end of the elongated member for receiving one of a trash receptacle and a mail box thereon. A stabilizer is disposed orthogonal to and radially extending from the distal end of the elongated member. The stabilizer being substantially greater in length than width for placement on a ground surface so that a weighted member, received thereupon the stabilizer together with the stabilizer, supports the elongated member in a substantially vertical, stationary position with respect to the ground surface. The universal post capable of use on a flat paved surface and on a flat unpaved surface with the addition of a spike. The universal post further usable as a movable fence.
