Appl. No.:

13/909557

Inventors:

Christopher B. Collins - Encinitas CA, US
David B. Waller - Encinitas CA, US

International Classification:

B65D 41/02

US Classification:

220780

Abstract:

The present invention is a container for holding viscous fluids. The device comprises a canister having a rim with a circular channel for releasably receiving a lid. The rim comprises two or more elongated drain apertures cut in the base of the channel providing liquid flow from the circular channel into the canister. The present invention is also a lid for a container that holds viscous fluids such as paint or lacquer. The lid comprises a ridge along the bottom surface of its perimeter edge and a ring adapter. The ring adapter has an outer rim with a ridge on its lower surface to be received by the circular channel of a container and an inner rim with a channel to releasably receive the ridge of the lid. The inner rim channel has three or more elongated drain apertures providing liquid flow from the circular channel.

Appl. No.:

7/906813

Inventors:

Christopher J. Collins - Fremont CA
James M. English - Annville PA
John C. Farrar - Harrisburg PA

Assignee:

AMP Incorporated - Harrisburg PA

International Classification:

H01R 1366

US Classification:

439620

Abstract:

A device (24) for protecting against electrical over stress (EOS) of electrical components includes first contacts (50, 56) that interconnect to signal contacts (18) of a connector (12) and second contacts (68) that connect to the ground circuit (20) of a connector with a rigid plastic housing (26) holding the device contacts so that ends (55, 65) have a precise spacing gap (71), the gap being filled with a material matrix (72) of insulating and conductive materials having characteristics in conjunction with the gap to define transit voltage suppression by grounding the signal contacts of a connector. The device is made bendable to fit onto connectors and conform to the connector geometry.

Inventors:

- New York NY, US
Christopher M. Collins - Elizabethtown PA, US

Assignee:

New York University - New York NY

International Classification:

G06N 5/04
G06F 19/24

US Classification:

706 46

Abstract:

After the temperature response to a single period of heating (SAR segment) is determined, temperature increases for an arbitrary timecourse of heating is determined based upon a convolution of the temperature response curve for a sequence of different SAR segments.
