Appl. No.:

12/963590

Inventors:

Waldemar John Lyslo - Naperville IL, US
Mark Howard Schwartz - Rochester NY, US
Stephen Boyd Pettis - Rochester NY, US

Assignee:

Surfacide, LLC - Naperville IL

International Classification:

G05B 1/00

US Classification:

25045511, 2504921, 2504941

Abstract:

UV hard-surface disinfection system that is able to disinfect the hard surfaces in a room, while minimizing missed areas due to shadows by providing multiple UV light towers that can be placed in several areas of a room such that shadowed areas are eliminated and that can be transported by a cart that is low to the ground such that the towers may be loaded and unloaded easily by a single operator. The system is able to be controlled remotely, such that during activation of the system, no operator is present, and to automatically cut power to all towers in the event that a person enters the room.

International Classification:

A61B017/32

US Classification:

606181000

Abstract:

A lancet device () having an internal magnet () and the forces emanating therefrom driving and retracting a collar () and a lancet (). The device has a steady state condition (SS) wherein the device is at rest and in equilibrium. The device can be armed and activated to puncture. Once puncturing has occurred the device returns to a steady state condition. A lancet method involves positioning both a magnet () and a member () capable of being affected thereby with a lancet () in communications with one of either the magnet or the member, positioning either the member () or the magnet () to an armed position wherein the magnetic forces from the magnetic affect the member, and releasing the one of either the member or the magnet from the armed position permitting movement between the member and magnet by at least, in part, the magnetic forces, resulting in the movement of the lancet from a withdrawn position to the piercing position.

US Classification:

1523601

Abstract:

This surface cleaner that is used on aquarium surfaces will comprise at least one razor blade housing comprising inner housing and outer housing at least one magnet The razor blade is to be housed within the inner housing and can be controlled by a switch To clean a surface, a user activates the razor blade and placing the inner housing on the surface that is to be cleaned. The outer housing is matched up with the inner housing and held together by the magnetic attraction between the magnets A user simply moves the outer housing along the surface and the inner housing will scrape the surface clean by way of the razor blade

Appl. No.:

7/839160

Inventors:

Mark W. Schwartz - Addison IL
Scott R. Semenik - Lake Zurich IL

Assignee:

Motorola, Inc. - Schaumburg IL

International Classification:

H05K 900

US Classification:

439 86

Abstract:

An electrically-conductive, elastomeric connector for electrically connecting a circuit path of an electrical circuit disposed upon a substrate having an electrically-conductive edge portion which forms a portion of the electrical circuit with an electrically-conductive cover which covers at least a portion of the substrate. The elastomeric connector comprises a tubular-shaped body elongated along a longitudinal axis thereof, and a central aperture extending through the tubular-shaped body. Compressive forces exerted against the tubular-shaped body when positioned against the electrically-conductive cover causes seating of the tubular-shaped body against the electrically-conductive cover. First and second claw arms extend beyond a side surface positioned in opposition to the seating surface of the tubular-shaped body. The claw arms permit affixation of the tubular-shaped body to an edge portion of the substrate.

International Classification:

H01Q 124

US Classification:

343702

Abstract:

An antenna assembly, and associated method, for a radio, such as a portable radiotelephone, which is of minimal physical dimensions and which is operable over a wide range of frequencies. A length of wire is helically-shaped and includes at least a portion of a winding. A capacitive top-hat is positioned at an end portion of the wire. By increasing the number of windings of the wire, the height of the antenna assembly is reduced, but such reduction also reduces the size of the bandwidth of frequencies over which the antenna assembly is operable. Increase in the size of the surface area of the capacitive top-hat increases the size of the bandwidth over which the antenna assembly is operable. Selection of the top-hat size and the number of windings permits beth physical dimensions of the antenna assembly and the size of the bandwidth to be selected.

International Classification:

H01B 1320

US Classification:

29828

Abstract:

An assembly, and associated method for constructing such, for connecting an electrical circuit to an electrical cable, such as an antenna connector pin, or, alternately, to a coaxial transmission line. An antenna circuit board includes a circular aperture extending therethrough for receiving a socket member to be supported thereat. Angled, segmental-slots are formed about the circular aperture and receive projecting prong-members of a clip member. The socket member receives the electrical cable, such as the antenna connector pin, or a coaxial conductor pin therein. The clip member engages with a coaxial tube of the coaxial transmission line. The assembly permits alternate connection thereto of either the electrical cable or the coaxial transmission line thereat.
