US Patent:
20100117366, May 13, 2010
Filed:
Mar 3, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/529178
Inventors:
Kenneth Rhinefrank - Corvallis OR, US
Annette Von Jouanne - Corvallis OR, US
Joseph Prudell - Corvallis OR, US
Alphomse Schacher - Corvallis OR, US
Alexandre F Yokochi - Corvallis OR, US
Ted Brekken - Corvallis OR, US
David Elwood - Corvallis OR, US
Chad Stillinger - Corvallis OR, US
Robert K. Paasch - Corvallis OR, US
International Classification:
F03B 13/18
H02K 19/22
US Classification:
290 53, 310 1212
Abstract:
An ocean wave energy converter system comprises an armature and a plurality of magnets which move relative to each other in response to ocean waves pushing on a spar and/or float to which the armature and the plurality of magnets are coupled. Components of the system comprise stacked rings and/or radial laminations. The armature can feature a variety of pole tips. Various methods can be used to assemble components from radial laminations. Air gaps in wire coils of the armatures can be filled with one or more materials that selectively alter the magnetic permeability of the wire coils.

US Patent:
20170102165, Apr 13, 2017
Filed:
Sep 28, 2016
Appl. No.:
15/279281
Inventors:
- Corvallis OR, US
Ted Brekken - Corvallis OR, US
International Classification:
F24H 9/20
F24H 1/20
Abstract:
An energy storing apparatus is provided which comprises: a first region having a thermostat which includes: a temperature sensor; a controller coupled to the temperature sensor; and a power-converter coupled to the controller; and a second region thermally coupled to the first region. An apparatus is provided which comprises: an interface to be coupled to an electric grid; a temperature sensor; a controller coupled to the temperature sensor; and a power-converter coupled to the controller, wherein the power-converter is to couple via passive devices to a heating element, wherein the power-converter is to apply power to the heating element according to a temperature sensed by the temperature sensor and a frequency of the electric grid.
