20090042635 | Roulette game - The roulette game is based upon a wheel having multiple series of consecutive numbers thereon. Each number is distinguished by a color, with a different quantity of colors repeating to provide a unique color and number combination for each position on the wheel. The colors may be selected to represent the colors of a national flag, e.g., red, white, and blue for the U.S., red, white, and green for Mexico, etc. House profit may be provided by payment of lower than actual odds, by the retention of a percentage of winning wagers, or by designating one or more wheel positions as winning positions for the house. This system may incorporate a progressive wagering system wherein retention of the house profit is waived for players who choose to place progressive wagers on consecutive plays of the wheel. | 02-12-2009 |

The colors may be selected to represent the colors of a national flag, e.g., red, white, and blue for the U.S., red, white, and green for Mexico, etc. House profit is provided by the retention of a percentage of winning wagers, rather than by payment of lower than actual odds or by designating one or more wheel positions as winning positions for the house. This system facilitates a progressive wagering system wherein retention of the house profit is waived for players who choose to place progressive wagers on consecutive plays of the wheel. | 10-23-2008 |

20100236158 | APPARATUS FOR A WIND RESISTANT AND POST LOAD RE-TENSIONING SYSTEM UTILIZING A COMPOSITE FABRIC AND ATTACHMENT APPARATUS - A roof fastening system that joins building walls or roof structures of a building frame to its foundation to provide a continuous load path that resists upward and lateral forces without interfering with the natural downward forces exerted on the frame over time. This system includes a composite material that combines the properties of a house wrap with high tensile strength low elongation fibers along one direction of the fabric and lower tensile strength high elongation fibers along one or more fabric directions that cross the high tensile strength low elongation fibers. The composite material extends from the top plates or heel truss of the framing of the structure down to its foundation to hold the frame together against high wind loading. | 09-23-2010 |
20110225924 | BUILDING CONSTRUCTION WRAPPED WITH REINFORCEMENT FABRIC TO RESIST WIND LOADING - A building construction has a foundation, walls and a roof structure, the walls being wrapped by a reinforcement fabric, with the reinforcement fabric being connected to the foundation and the roof structure to tie the roof structure to the foundation for increased resistance to natural disasters. The connection of the reinforcement fabric to the roof structure includes a top rail having a connector plate attached to the roof structure and having an upwardly oriented opening, and a wrapping member about which the reinforcement fabric can be wrapped, the wrapping member having a geometry corresponding with the geometry of the upwardly oriented opening in such a manner that the wrapping member is prevented from rotating in the opening. | 09-22-2011 |

The microcontroller performs one or more safety-related functions with the same automotive safety integrity level as required to the automotive engine electronic control unit. The integrated circuit performs one or more safety-related functions with an automotive safety integrity level that is lower than that of the microcontroller. The integrated circuit performs, for each performed safety-related function, a corresponding diagnosis function for detecting failures in the performance of the safety-related function. The microcontroller performs, for each performed diagnosis function, a corresponding monitoring function for monitoring performance of the corresponding diagnosis function by the integrated circuit to detect failures that may compromise the diagnostic capability of the diagnosis function. | 02-26-2015 |

20130234744 | Diagnosis method and control unit for performing a diagnosis of a lambda sensor of the UEGO type of an exhaust system for an internal combustion engine - A method performs a diagnosis of a lambda sensor of a “UEGO” type of an exhaust system for an internal-combustion engine. The lambda sensor includes a series of pins. The diagnosis method comprises steps of: heating the lambda sensor to cause the lambda sensor to reach an inner temperature that is higher than about 600° C.; polarizing a first one of the pins by connecting the first pin to a supply voltage through a first limiting resistance; measuring a voltage of all of the pins while the first pin is connected to the supply voltage; and diagnosing a presence of a short circuit to an electrical ground if the voltage of at least one of the pins is lower than a predetermined threshold. A control unit performs the diagnosis. | 09-12-2013 |
