Patent number: 6877542Abstract: A bonding system is provided that bonds a heat sink to a printed circuit assembly. The bonding system includes an adhesive applicator that is configured to hold an adhesive layer, and a heat sink holder that is configured to hold a heat sink while the adhesive applicator applies the adhesive layer to the heat sink.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2002Date of Patent: April 12, 2005Assignee: Agilent Technologies, Inc.Inventors: William R Huseby, John Barker, Joseph Groshong

Publication number: 20040039345Abstract: The ergonomically advantaged syringe is used by an operator to inject fluid into a patient during a medical procedure, which can include angiographic procedures where catheters are used. Although said ergonomic syringe may be connected to and used with a catheter of any size, it is particularly suited for use by an operator to inject radiopaque dye through catheters having small diameters. The large handgrip and locations of the fingergrips, together with other features on these elements of the ergonomic syringe, increase comfort and reduce the fatigue, strain, and risk of disability which may be associated with achieving the force required for each injection to achieve high pressures necessary for proper dye density in the blood flow in the target blood vessels, where such force is greater in smaller catheters than in larger catheters.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 19, 2003Publication date: February 26, 2004Applicant: Semler Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Philip D. Benz, Herbert J. Semler, Benjamin P. Mergen, William R. Huseby

Patent number: 6354325Abstract: A valve cover for enclosing an underground area surrounding the actuating mechanism of a flow control valve. The valve cover includes a body having a structure configured to position the valve cover in a desired orientation relative to the flow control valve. This positioning structure may be at least partially elastomeric, and configured to resiliently deform and urge against the flow control valve when the valve cover body is placed over the valve actuating mechanism. This maintains the valve cover body seated in a centered, leveled orientation relative to the valve actuating mechanism. The positioning structure may also be formed as a spacer configured to contact the valve actuating mechanism itself and space the actuating mechanism from the valve cover body. The valve cover body is configured so that, when it is installed, a valve tool may be freely inserted into the enclosed underground area and operatively engaged with the valve actuating mechanism.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2001Date of Patent: March 12, 2002Assignee: 3 Dimensional Contracting, Inc.Inventors: Kenneth F. Warnes, Christian O. Nelson, Frank M. McElheran, Lance S. Landis, Thane J. Landis, William R. Huseby, John Barker, Matthew S. Cameron

Patent number: 5152622Abstract: The invented printer includes a paper drive and mechanisms which hold paper in proper alignment in the drive. Specifically, it includes a pressure plate capable of bringing a sheet of paper into contact with a drive roller so that the paper is properly aligned, a wrapper which keeps paper in proper contact with the drive roller, a media edge contactor that presses against paper, a carriage guide support which helps to insure proper alignment of the paper during printing, and a back-out restraint to prevent paper from backing out of the printer.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 1991Date of Patent: October 6, 1992Assignee: Hewlett-Packard CompanyInventors: Steve O. Rasmussen, Allan G. Olson, Vance M. Stephens, William R. Huseby

Patent number: 4872026Abstract: A novel ink-jet printer (10) is provided. The print provides both paper supply tray (12) and paper collection tray (18) in the front (14) of the printer for ease of paper handling and reduced footprint. The paper collection tray is provided with a pair of opposed output rails (22) which support a sheet of paper (16c) during printing to permit ink on a sheet of paper (16b) previously printed to dry. A paper handling mechanism is provided which eliminates a sheet pickup motor and associated elements. The paper handling mechanism is configured to pick off a sheet of paper from a stack of input paper, bring it around paper drive rollers (24) onto a platen (26), where the printing operation, employing a printhead cartridge (32), occurs. The printer further includes a service station (230) for clearing clogged nozzles in the printhead (33) and removing bubbles therefrom, for covering the nozzles with a protective cap (266), and for wiping contaminants off the nozzles.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 1988Date of Patent: October 3, 1989Assignee: Hewlett-Packard CompanyInventors: Steve O. Rasmussen, Larry A. Jackson, John D. Rhodes, David W. Pinkernell, J. Paul Harmon, Kevin L. Moon, William R. Huseby

Patent number: 4794859Abstract: An active paper drop mechanism (20) for ink-jet printers is provided. The mechanism comprises a pair of opposed, movable rail members (22) associated with opposed walls (14) of a horizontal-disposed output collection tray (12) for receiving sheets (10) of printed media.In particular, each rail member is provided with return spring (26) that act to maintain the rails in a closed position. In that position, the rails support a sheet of the print medium during the printing operation, thus giving the ink on the previously printed-on sheet (10') time to dry.The rails are provided with a wing member (32) and are pivotally secured (38) in the floor of the output tray, with the pivot point spaced inwardly from the wing member. Downward pressure against the wing member thus causes the rail to rotate outward from its closed position, into a recess (24) provided in the side of the output tray. This provides sufficient clearance for the sheet to drop into the output stack.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 1987Date of Patent: January 3, 1989Assignee: Hewlett-Packard CompanyInventors: William R. Huseby, Kevin L. Moon, Steve O. Rasmussen, Larry A. Jackson

Patent number: 4759649Abstract: Method and apparatus are provided for moving perforated continuous paper (10) through a dual axis printer (12), with both axes (14, 30) driven, while regulating the feed with the perforations and maintaining a controlled tension (38a) in the paper between the two driven axes. The novel approach in this invention is the addition of a set of spring-loaded friction surfaces (56a-62a), incorporated into a gear transmission (50), which limit the amount of torque which can be transmitted to the unregulated drive axis, with the direct effect of controlling the tension in the paper between the two axes.In order to create this tension, the unregulated axis is driven at a slightly greater speed than the regulated axis (with speed measured in terms of inches of paper per revolution of the driven gear (20)).Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 1987Date of Patent: July 26, 1988Assignee: Hewlett-Packard CompanyInventors: Kieran B. Kelly, William R. Huseby, Robert P. Callaway, Chris A. Rasmussen
