Title: Liquid distributor
Inventor: TAKAHASHI KEI
IPC: E04D13/00
Filed: 1998-12-14
Granted: 2007-02-13
Abstract: A liquid distributor is adapted for use with a sheet material so as to distribute an incoming liquid to a plurality of flow paths in the sheet material. The liquid distributor includes a generally rectangular flat substrate secured to a roof through the sheet material. A pair of elongated guides are raised from the top surface of the substrate to collect a heating medium such as hot water from a supply pipe. The guides are arranged in such a manner as to define an inlet opening therebetween. The guides are oriented to direct the heating medium to the inlet opening.      A triangular baffle is located downstream of the guides. The top end of the baffle is aligned with the inlet opening, whereby the heating medium is divided into two streams of heating medium. A pair of partitions are arranged at opposite sides of the baffle to define opposite intermediate openings. A pair of triangular distribution elements are located downstream of the baffle. Each of the distribution elements has a top end aligned with a respective one of the intermediate openings, and opposite slant sides. With this arrangement, the two streams of heating medium are divided into a total of four streams of heating medium which are directed to the respective flow paths in the sheet material.

Abstract: An electrical junction box assembly for mounting a fire alarm signaling unit or the like. The box includes a substantially square rear panel, four generally rectangular sidewall panels extending forwardly therefrom, and an open forward end adapted to receive at least a portion of a signaling unit or the like. Each side of the substantially square rear panel is approximately five inches in length, and the sidewall panels extend forwardly from the rear panel approximately two and seven--eighths inches, whereby the box will fit within the three and one-half inch stud space between a wall and a bar hanger typically provided, and yet accommodate the speaker or chime portion of an alarm signaling unit as well as electrical conductors for powering the unit and other devices down the line. An adaptor is provided as an interface connection between the junction box and a fire alarm signaling unit or the like. The adaptor includes a substantially square peripheral flange, each side of which is approximately five inches in length. The adaptor further includes a substantially square peripheral wall extending forwardly from the peripheral flange; each side being approximately four inches in length. Means are provided on the flange of the adaptor for mounting the adaptor to the open forward end of the junction box and to a fire alarm signaling device or the like. The rear wall of the junction box has two openings therein for receiving a grounding screw. The grounding screw openings are spaced from one another laterally and longitudinally so as to ensure that at least one of said openings will not lie against a bar hanger on which the junction box may be mounted.

Title: Automated bill payment system
Inventor: SENEZ RAYMOND
IPC: H04L9/00
Filed: 2000-02-25
Granted: 2003-08-05
Abstract: The present invention provides a fully automated and secure bill payment system which is extremely simple for clients to operate. A processing web site is established which interconnects via the Internet to a plurality of financial institutions, billers and clients. Each biller has an established web site into which a client of the biller can enter and view a bill image using a personal computer or similar device connected to the Internet. The bill image is actually part of a HTML form which contains hidden identifying information of the biller. To facilitate payment, the client selects a bill payment icon presented graphically within the body of the bill image. This action initiates a sequence of events, including the forwarding of the HTML form to the processing web site, a confirmation message being sent to the client, confirmation by the client, and the debiting and crediting of client and biller accounts respectively. Instead of requiring the client to log into the biller's web site, the bill can also be presented to the client by way of an e-mail message. Similar to the previous scenario, bill payment is accomplished by the client selecting a bill payment icon.

Filed: 2001-06-15
Granted: 2002-07-16
Abstract: An expandable dish tray contains a drawer-like tray within and in the bottom of the dish rack. Water from the dishes on the dish rack drains through frontal slots in the downwardly slanted floor into the tray. If additional space is required, the tray is drawn outwards, acting as an extended dish rack and a drainage board. In this position water drains through the same frontal slots and collects in the tray. The floor slots in the dish rack permit water drainage only into the tray whether the tray is in its outward or withdrawn position. The spaced apart ridges on the tray keep dishes above the collected water on the bottom surface of the tray. There can be feet arranged underneath to enhance a stability, and the tray may be extended in an out of the dish rack via a guide having teeth. There also may be a utensil compartment that can be further sub-divided to segregate the different utensils while they are drying.
