US Patent:

7902706, Mar 8, 2011

Filed:

Aug 20, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/894400

Inventors:

Robert J. Thibodeau - Gloucester MA, US
Christopher Williams - Manchester MA, US
Daniel Irvin - Prides Crossing MA, US

Assignee:

Maglev Technologies, LLC - Gloucester MA

International Classification:

H02K 7/09

US Classification:

310 905

Abstract:

A rotational apparatus with one or more passive magnetic bearing(s) is described. The rotational apparatus includes a rotor with a tapered magnetic ring and a stator with a tapered array of shorted conducting circuits. A repulsive force between the tapered magnetic ring and the tapered array of shorted conducting circuits acts a passive magnetic bearing that centers the rotor radially in a stator cavity and that repels the rotor axially away from an end of the stator cavity.

Appl. No.:

11/293982

Inventors:

Robert Thibodeau - Gloucester MA, US

International Classification:

F04B 35/04

US Classification:

417410100

Abstract:

Disclosed herein are apparatuses having a stator and a rotor configured to provide both a magnetic drive means and a magnetic bearing means for a rotatable element. The stator and rotor are configured to operate in unison to provide a magnetic force to rotate a rotatable element associated with the rotor about an axis and to control a radial, an axial, and a tilt position of the rotatable element about the axis. The rotor and stator assemblies are configured with complementary surface shapes to produce shapeable magnetic drive forces and shapeable magnetic bearing forces to drive and control an axial, a radial, and a tilt position of an associated rotatable element.

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

US Classification:

707006000

Abstract:

The present invention provides systems and methods for processing receivables data, such as medical receivables, to provide the receivables as an asset with a qualified financial value for a financial services domain. The medical receivables data may include an identifier of a health care related service for which a claim for payment is requested. The present invention describes systems and methods for assigning a predictive financial value for the service identified by the claim to create an asset with a qualified financial value and to create an agreement or financial instrument to pay the qualified financial value by a payer.

US Classification:

428547000, 264427000, 264437000, 425130000, 425003000, 428539500

Abstract:

The present invention discloses methods and magnetic material composites capable of withstanding one or more loads without the need for a substructure to provide structural support thereto. The magnetic composites are formable from composites such as epoxies, resins, plastics and the like together with rare earth or other magnetic or magnetizable compounds, or magnetic nano-particles to form structural magnetic composites. The magnetic composites have one or more portions with an aggregation of the magnetic material and one or more portions free of or substantially free of the magnetic material. The magnetic composites are suitable for use to form components of electrical motors, generators, pumps, fans, paints, coatings and parts or derivatives thereof.

US Classification:

705 36 R

Abstract:

A system and method are disclosed for raising financing in accordance with SEC and other regulatory requirements by an early stage company. Initially, a draft business plan is presented to collaborators, on a company's Internet website, and interested potential collaborators of the company are allowed to collaborate and assist in the development and refinement of the business plan, invite other prospective collaborators likewise to collaborate on the plans development. At such point as the business plan receives enough such indications of positive interest from collaborators, the company may elect to package the business plan elements into a securities offering as may be determined suitable by the company based on the number, qualifications, and geographic locations of collaborators who have indicated a willingness and a desire to invest in the company which they have helped to create.
