Filed: 2002-09-20
Abstract: What had been created are various new processes with the corresponding newly created devices that support or to handle the new processes in order to attained the desired outcome of the new processes. One desired outcome is to produce a low technology cooling system that can be easily made by the ordinary man for himself and this is answered by the creation of a misting tube having a plurality of water misting nozzles and a blower blows wind thru the water mist towards a place or into a house or into an office. An alternative of this is a blower that blows wind thru the water mist created by an atomizer and into a house, a building, a work shop, a play area, or into a green house or plantation. An improvement of this is misting tube being place infront of a blower by attaching the misting tube to the frame/shell of the blower so that the misting tube goes freely with the left and right oscillation of the blower. A further improvement of this water-mist-blower system is where the water is mist sprayed inside a vacuumed air duct to speed up water evaporation wherein air is passed thru a multi-tube radiator inside the vacuumed air duct and the cold air from the air duct is passed thru a hybrid Centrifugal Cyclone separator to remove surplus water mist. Further created are desalination devices.

Abstract: A printer on a networked gaming device can be controlled by the network to generate awards. The printer can operate as both a typical printer in a gaming device and as a printer for the gaming network, or separate printers can be installed in the gaming device. If the particular player has identified himself or herself to the gaming network, then the gaming system has a very high probability that it is communicating to a known player.  Therefore, the printer operates as a direct communication conduit to a player. Additionally, previously issued awards can be redeemed by a validator coupled to the gaming network.

Title: Flexible coupling with misalignment compensation
Inventor: ANTCHAK JOHN
IPC: F16D41/20
Filed: 2003-11-19
Abstract: A flexible coupling assembly interconnects an output shaft and an input shaft. The flexible coupling assembly includes a first hub operatively coupled to the input shaft for rotation therewith. A second hub is operatively coupled to the output shaft for rotation therewith. A flexible element in the form of a coil spring interconnects the first and second hubs for transferring rotational torque between the first and second hubs while continuously compensating for axial misalignment between the first and second hubs. A retainer is disposed between the flexible element and the first and second hubs for limiting radial deflection of the flexible element during rotation of the flexible coupling. A one-way clutch is operatively coupled between the coil spring and one of the first and second hubs for transferring torque in one rotational direction while allowing the output shaft to decelerate relative to the input shaft in a direction other than the one rotational direction.

Abstract: An automatic siren silencing device for false alarms, for use in an alarm system having a siren driver which powers a siren. A microcomputer monitors pulse signal characteristics of the siren driver, including duration of pulses and number of pulses, and compares these characteristics with predetermined pulse signal characteristics stored in a memory. A relay coil is energized by the microcomputer, controlling a relay switch which disconnects the siren from the siren driver when the pulse signal characteristics are indicative of a false alarm thereby silencing the siren. A user means is provided to adjust the predetermined pulse signal characteristics. Power to the microcomputer is provided by a capacitor, charged by the signal of the siren driver, whereby no battery or dedicated external power supply input is required. Indicator lights and a piezo element inform a user of siren silencing, and indicate the types of false alarms detected.

Filed: 2004-02-09
Abstract: The method involves selecting a value of a functional parameter characteristic of an electronic power component, in response to a successive application of switching voltage to determine, whether a reaction of the component is in a fixed time limit. A piloting procedure is run on the component, if the reaction of the component is in the time limit, otherwise the procedure is interrupted to save integrity of the component. The piloting procedure contains many steps to control the application of a different switching voltage, on a common electrode of the electronic power component, between the instant where piloting process starts and the instant of the opening and closing of the electronic power component. Independent claims are also included for the following: (a) a system for controlling electronic power component (b) an information recording medium for performing a method of controlling electronic power component.
