Filed:

Jun 28, 1977

Appl. No.:

5/810863

Inventors:

Elizabeth P. Wilkinson - High Point NC

International Classification:

A45C 1100

US Classification:

224205

Abstract:

A holder for a cigarette lighter includes a leather sleeve, open at both ends, for receiving the lighter. An inner surface of the sleeve is roughened for frictionally engaging the lighter and retaining the lighter in position in the sleeve, so that, an upper portion of the lighter including the lighter actuator protrudes beyound one of the open ends of the sleeve. A strap, attached to the sleeve, is configured in a closed loop and is of sufficient length to encircle the neck of a wearer to permit the lighter to hang loosely from the neck when not in use and of sufficient length to permit the lighter to be manually grasped and positioned to light a cigarette in the mouth of the wearer.

Abstract:

A method assesses an energy impacting event at a facility using an energy management system. One or more energy consuming endpoints of the facility are sub-metered and data from the sub-metered endpoints is transmitted to the energy management system. A project is created within the EMS by entering project definition attributes including at least a site name, a project name, and a start date. Data from one or more sub-metered channels and a project indicator is displayed. The displayed project indicator is located at a point corresponding to its project start time. A further method tracks the progress of energy saving project at a facility using an energy management system. The project definition attributes further include one or more sub-metered channels, baseline usage data, and an energy related goal. An energy impact value is calculated by subtracting the actual sub-metered usage data from the baseline data and a determination is made whether the energy impact value meets or exceeds the energy goal. The baseline usage data, the energy goal data, the actual sub-metered data, and an indication of whether the energy goal was met are displayed. A further method tracks the financial progress of energy saving project at a facility using an energy management system. The project definition attributes further include one or more capital investment outflow values, a discount rate, and an energy cost rate. Net actual project cash flows and the net project goal cash flows are both plotted against a time scale and periodically displayed. An estimated net present value and net present value are periodically calculated and displayed.
