Filed:

Sep 12, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/519652

Inventors:

Jason P. Adams - Manhattan NY, US

International Classification:

A61F 2/02

US Classification:

623 2372, 606151, 606213

Abstract:

A patch for repairing an intra-abdominal defect is disclosed in one embodiment of the present invention as including a mesh layer providing a grid of material perforated by apertures through the mesh. This mesh is used to reinforce an area around an intra-abdominal defect. A containment layer is secured proximate an edge of the mesh layer. A filler is distributed across the apertures of the mesh to contain a fluid from passing through the mesh. The mesh layer, containment layer, and filler are connected to form a chamber to selectively expand upon receipt of a quantity of fluid between the containment layer and the filler.

Filed:

Feb 26, 2004

Appl. No.:

10/787334

Inventors:

Jason Adams - New York NY, US

International Classification:

A23L001/30

US Classification:

426072000, 426592000

Abstract:

Compositions and methods are provided for supplementing a nutrition-depleting beverage. A nutrient supplement typically includes an active ingredient effective to compensate for the nutrient depletion incurred by consuming the beverage, an excipient, and a delivery formulation. An active ingredient may include a vitamin, mineral, electrolyte, or other nutrient. An excipient may include anti-oxidants, pH buffers, flavor masking agents, odor masking agents, preservatives, timed-release mechanisms, and other excipients added to the beverage to support delivery of the active ingredient from the beverage to the bloodstream of a user. A method for increasing nutritional constituents otherwise subject to a deficiency in a user as a consequence of consumption of a beverage, may include a method for making and administering a supplemented beverage for increasing nutritional constituents.

Filed:

Jun 1, 2017

Appl. No.:

15/611138

Inventors:

- Waltham MA, US
Jason D. Adams - Medway MA, US

International Classification:

H05K 7/20
F28F 13/16
H01L 23/473

Abstract:

An apparatus includes a substrate and a matrix having multiple cells embedded within the substrate. The matrix is configured to generate electrostatic fields to define at least one flow path for liquid metal. The apparatus also includes a pump configured to create movement of the liquid metal through the at least one flow path defined by the matrix. The matrix is configured to transport the liquid metal through the at least one flow path in order to remove thermal energy from one or more areas of the substrate. The matrix could include a matrix of capacitors, and polarities of charges stored on the capacitors could define which cells allow passage of the liquid metal and which cells block or restrict passage of the liquid metal. The cells that block or restrict passage of the liquid metal could be configured to increase a viscosity of the liquid metal.

International Classification:

H02M 3/02

H02M 1/00

Abstract:

A regulated current-fed power system employs power branching units connected in series. Each power branching unit includes a plurality of parallel-redundant converter groups connected in series with each other within a current path for the regulated current. Each parallel-redundant converter group includes at least two direct current (DC)/DC converters connected in parallel with each other, each sharing the power load. A protection device connected in series with each DC/DC converter disconnects the respective DC/DC converter from the regulated current when the respective DC/DC converter short circuits, with the remaining DC/DC converter(s) then receiving more of the power load. An active clamp connected in parallel with all of the DC/DC converters within a parallel-redundant converter group temporarily sinks a portion of the regulated current when one of the DC/DC converters fails in a short-circuit condition. The active clamp shunts the regulated current around all DC/DC converters within the parallel-redundant converter group converters fail in a short-circuit condition.
