Title: Hanger bar for recessed lighting fixtures
Inventor: NGUYEN HUAN
IPC: F21S8/02
Filed: 2010-02-01
Abstract: A hanger bar for supporting a recessed light fixture is attachable to ceiling joists or a T--bar grid of a drop down ceiling. First and second bars of the hanger bar slide and telescope.  First and second spring clips are detachably coupled to the brackets at the ends of the first and second bars, respectively. Each of the first and second clips has a pair of downwardly extending arms bent inwardly toward one another, a first leg extending from a first arm, a second leg extending from a second arm, and an outwardly-extending foot on the second leg. The spring clips snap on to the T-bar grid. Each bracket includes a nail that is angled away from the hanger bar and downward so that the nail head is below the level of the hanger bar.  The angled nails enable easy hammer strikes to attach the hanger bar to ceiling joists without accidental hammer blows to the hanger bar. The bracket may be discrete from the hanger bar but attached via tox clinching or a tab pass-through attachment.

Title: Double draw bar spring mechanism
Inventor: ELLIS PHILIP C
IPC: E05F1/08
Filed: 2010-03-31
Abstract: A double slide arm spring mechanism for biasing a primary mechanism to home position after operation and retaining the primary mechanism in the home position pending further operation. The double slide arm spring mechanism includes a pair of slideably interlocking arms each having a longitudinal frame member and a spring engaging flange at each end. The frame members are a disposed to engage one another while permitting relative sliding of the arms. The slide arms are interlocked such that one flange of each arm is situated between the two flanges of the other arm. Two compression springs are retained between the flanges of the arms such that sliding of either arm toward the other necessarily compresses both springs.  Potential energy stored in the springs returns the slide to its neutral position when the operator is released thereby also returning the operator to its neutral position. The slide arms produce twice as much force to return operator to it neutral position as would be possible using springs of the same length operated independently.

IPC: H01F30/12
Filed: 2010-07-21
Abstract: A step-down autotransformer for a power distribution system with 1-phase non-linear loads according to the invention provides at least one output for each phase. In two-output embodiments the outputs in each output pair have a different voltage than the input voltage and are phase-shifted by 30 degrees to cancel or substantially reduce the 5th and 7th harmonic currents. The autotransformer of the invention also cancels or substantially reduces zero phase sequence (ZPS) harmonic currents by providing a number of turns of windings between the neutral and each output oriented in a positive direction to be substantially equal to the number of turns of windings between the neutral and each output oriented in a negative direction. A  single-output embodiment provides one output for each phase and therefore does not introduce a 30 degree phase shift for cancellation of 5th and 7th harmonic currents, but cancels or substantially reduces zero phase sequence (ZPS) harmonic currents by providing a lower impedance path. The zig-zag connections provide a neutral return path for 1-phase ground faults.

IPC: B65D19/00
Filed: 2004-04-28
Abstract: A pallet assembly (10) includes an upper deck (12) and a lower deck (14) spaced by a plurality of columns (16). The weight of the pallet is reduced without significant reduction in strength by providing only a single cross beam in each of the upper (50) and lower (20) reinforcement members and orienting them perpendicular to one another. The reinforcement members are minimized for weight reduction and for improved performance in heat tests. The peripheral rail of the upper reinforcement member (50) is reduced such that it rests on only an inwardly open recess on an inner corner of each of the corner columns. This reduces the size and weight of the upper reinforcement member (50), while still providing support to the upper deck (12).  Additionally, the peripheral rails of both the upper (12) and lower decks (14) are reduced in length such that either ledge does not directly support them while the pallet is stored on a rack (70). As a result, in the case of sufficient heat source on the pallets, the pallets will eventually collapse without interference from the reinforcement members and at least partially smother the heat source.
