摘要: This invention has as its objective provision of a method and apparatus to enable the batteries of Electric Vehicles (EV)s to level the electric demand in buildings to reduce demand charges based on instantaneous demand for electric power. This load leveling is done by connecting the EV to the building electrical system by its conventional Alternating Current (AC) recharging connection, and by an additional Direct Current (DC) path supporting intermittent loads. In this way the EV battery stands between the AC energy source and the intermittent load and reduces the electric power drawn from the grid to a constant minimum level, thereby minimizing demand charges.

摘要: A therapeutic back support device including a back support portion that automatically and repeatedly moves forward to maintain engagement with a user's back as the user moves forward with respect to a chair seat. The back support portion substantially resists backward motion and provides substantially continuous therapeutic support to the user's spine pending a release signal.

摘要: An anchor device and system for coupling soft tissue to osseous tissue includes a stopper member that supports a loop of suture material. A fixing member includes features that allow it to be rigidly coupled to surrounding bone and thus hold the stopper member in a cavity within the bone. The loop of suture material, in turn, supports a second suture device, which is coupled to, and thus retains, the soft tissue. In certain embodiments, the stopper member includes a mechanical linkage for coupling it to the fixing member, and surface features that resist withdrawal of the fixing member from the bone.

摘要: A haptic actuator includes mechanical links defining a first J-trajectory and mechanical links defining a second J-trajectory as well as a motor coupled to the mechanical links so as to synchronously accelerate a first mass over the first J-trajectory and a second mass over the second J-trajectory. During a first time interval, reactive forces of the first mass accelerating substantially balance reactive forces of the second mass accelerating and during a second time interval reactive forces of the first mass accelerating do not substantially balance reactive forces of the second mass accelerating. This un-balanced condition results in a tap signal being produced.

摘要: The present invention proposes a set of impurity doping configurations for GaN buffer in an AlGaN/GaN HEMT device to improve breakdown characteristics of the device. The breakdown characteristics depend on a unique mix of donor and acceptor traps and using carbon as a dopant increases both donor and acceptor trap concentrations, resulting in a trade-off in breakdown voltage improvement and device performance. A modified silicon and carbon co-doping is proposed, which enables independent control over donor and acceptor trap concentrations in the buffer, thus potentially improving breakdown characteristics of the device without adversely affecting the device performance.

摘要: A spiral antenna device includes a plurality of generally polygonal loops. The polygonal loops have respective side counts that decrease progressively as a function of the loop's radial distance from a center of the antenna device. The side count may vary between loops as a multiple of a power of two.

摘要: This invention enables Electric Vehicle Service Equipments to control external electrical loads, such as water heaters. The parallel electric energy demand of the external load augments the remotely controllable energy demand for charging the vehicle creating a larger controllable demand than for charging the vehicle only. This larger demand is useful in responding to requests for ancillary service from the grid and can increase the revenue for regulation services.
