Appl. No.:

29/319681

Inventors:

David Goodman - Churchville PA, US

International Classification:

0604

US Classification:

D 6396

US Patent:

20030046310, Mar 6, 2003

Filed:

Aug 28, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/941072

Inventors:

David Goodman - New York NY, US
Jason Chang - Brooklyn NY, US
Pratik Mehta - New York NY, US

Assignee:

Polytechnic University

International Classification:

G06F012/00

US Classification:

707/200000

Abstract:

Helping users to track the contents (e.g., files) stored on various types of storage media without requiring the user to insert the storage media into a read device of a machine, such as a floppy drive of a personal computer, and/or helping users to locate desired content (e.g., a file) without having to insert numerous storage media into a read device of a machine. The contents of a given storage medium may be determined by associating a machine-readable label with each machine-readable medium, and the contents thereof. When a user wants to know the contents of the machine-readable medium, they merely need to have another device (e.g., a Palm Pilot provided with a bar code scanner) read the label. The device may include a database synchronized with a database managed by the machine which is used to write content to, and/or read content from, the machine-readable medium. A file may be found by (i) allowing a user to enter one or more search parameters into the device, such as a handheld, untethered device, (ii) generating a search query from the entered parameter(s), (iii) getting a search result(s) indicating the storage medium that includes the desired content, and (iv) helping the user to associate the indicated storage medium with the physical storage medium actually storing the desired content.

Appl. No.:

7/338030

Inventors:

John W. Anhalt - Orange CA
David S. Goodman - Mission Viejo CA

Assignee:

ITT Corporation - New York NY

International Classification:

H01R 1315

US Classification:

439260

Abstract:

A connector for an IC memory card having a printed circuit member mounted within the housing of the card which extends into a slot opening at the edge of the card. The connector contains two rows of contacts which are engageable with conductive traces on the opposite sides of the printed circuit member when the card is inserted into the connector. The contacts in the connector are reversely bent to form inner arms joined to outer arms by nose portions. The inner arms of the contacts in the two rows are normally spaced apart a distance greater than the thickness of the printed circuit member so that when the card is initially inserted into the connector, the noses of the contacts will pass freely over the border of the printed circuit member. Thereafter, the sidewalls of the housing of the card cam the outer arms of the contacts inwardly, forcing the inner arms into engagement with the traces on the printed circuit member in the card.

Appl. No.:

6/693408

Inventors:

John W. Anhalt - Orange CA
David S. Goodman - Mission Viejo CA
Gerald J. Selvin - Huntington Beach CA

Assignee:

ITT Corporation - New York NY

International Classification:

H01R 909

US Classification:

339 17M

Abstract:

A connector assembly is described for fitting in a small space between a display panel device and a printed circuit board device, to electrically connect a multiplicity of closely-spaced conductors on the devices. The connector assembly includes a row of contact elements with opposite ends for contacting the conductors of the devices, and with curved middle portions that are nested in one another. The middle portions of the elements are sandwiched between the substantially flat faces of a housing, and the opposite ends of the elements project through openings in the housing.

Assignee:

International Telephone and Telegraph Corporation - New York NY

International Classification:

H05K 100

US Classification:

339 17CF

Abstract:

An electrical connector for interconnecting conductive traces on a pair of electronic components, such as a display panel and logic circuit used in a digital wristwatch. The connector comprises an elongated non-conductive elastomeric member having parallel, spaced conductive surfaces thereon which interconnect the traces on the electronic components.

Filed:

Sep 16, 1974

Appl. No.:

5/506058

Inventors:

David S. Goodman - Orange CA

Assignee:

International Telephone and Telegraph Corporation - New York NY

International Classification:

H05K 300

US Classification:

29625

Abstract:

A method of making a multilayer board in which relatively thick ground and voltage planes are punched to form clearance holes. The planes are stacked with insulative layers, laminated and then drilled to produce through holes aligned with the clearance holes. The through holes are then plated-through. The method eliminates under-etch problems in thick ground and voltage planes which are capable of carrying high magnitudes of current.

Appl. No.:

5/947563

Inventors:

John W. Anhalt - Orange CA
David S. Goodman - Mission Viejo CA
Gerald J. Selvin - Huntington Beach CA

Assignee:

International Telephone and Telegraph Corporation - New York NY

International Classification:

H02G 1522

US Classification:

174 79

Abstract:

A cable assembly and construction method to enable a cable to be pulled lengthwise in a conduit or otherwise, wherein a perforate plate is placed among insulated wires in a bundle emanating from one end of the cable jacket or sheath. The wires are bonded to each other and to the plate by potting. An epoxy or resin may be used, if desired. Alternatively a paraffin potting step may be employed to provide a base for a resin, a paraffin block being potted between the jacket and the resin.

Filed:

May 20, 1977

Appl. No.:

5/798786

Inventors:

David Joel Goodman - Summit NJ
James David Johnston - N. Plainfield NJ
A. Michael Noll - Stirling NJ

Assignee:

Bell Telephone Laboratories, Incorporated - Murray Hill NJ

International Classification:

H04M 158

US Classification:

179 81A

Abstract:

A controllable-gain amplifier is connected between the transmitter and receiver of a telephone set and is controlled in response to the level of the telephone user's speech so as to provide an increase in gain when the user speaks too loud and a decrease in gain when the user speaks too low. This results in a sidetone which causes the user to change his or her voice level to obtain an acceptable level of sidetone. A better-controlled user voice level is thus achieved.
