Device For Monitoring And Alerting Of A Power Disruption To Electrical Equipment Or An Appliance
US Patent:
7209048, Apr 24, 2007
Filed:
Mar 11, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/798003
Inventors:
Joseph R. Pace - Omaha NE, US
Michelle L. Pace - Omaha NE, US
Michelle L. Pace - Omaha NE, US
International Classification:
G08B 21/00, H02H 3/00, H02H 7/00, H02H 11/00, H02H 1/04, H01R 13/625
US Classification:
340687, 340438, 340635, 340654, 340655, 340656, 3406861, 361102, 361103, 307326, 307327, 439214, 439215, 439345, 439353
Abstract:
The present invention is a simple, inexpensive and reliable device for monitoring and alerting of a power disruption to an appliance or a piece of equipment. An audible and/or visual alarm may be generated in the event that a specific or a piece of electrical equipment becomes disconnected from its electrical source. The device for monitoring and alerting of a power disruption may operate from an internal battery in case the electrical power source to the appliance disrupted. Additionally, a power-surge-suppression, a rechargeable battery, and a charger for the battery may make the device more reliable. The remote receiver may receive a broadcasted alarm signal from the monitoring device and then notify a user with a visual and/or audible alarm at a location where the alarm is more likely to be seen and heard.
Railroad Maintenance-Of-Way Personnel Warning System Apparatus And Method Therefor
US Patent:
6471162, Oct 29, 2002
Filed:
Jul 11, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/614501
Inventors:
Joseph A. Pace - Omaha NE
Assignee:
EVA Signal Corporation - Omaha NE
International Classification:
B61L 2500
US Classification:
246294, 246293, 246124, 246477
Abstract:
A railroad maintenance-of-way personnel warning system and method therefor provides advanced detecting and warning of oncoming trains encroaching the construction area. Magnetometer sensors detect an oncoming train whereby a warning signal is transmitted to a receiver unit at the construction zone. Warning alarms including a flashing light and siren horn are thereby activated to indicate the imminent danger whereupon the construction personnel may take cautionary and evasive action in sufficient time to avoid mishap.
Flexible Gate
US Patent:
6370821, Apr 16, 2002
Filed:
May 26, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/579638
Inventors:
David W. McCord - Omaha NE 68137-2948
Joseph R. Pace - Omaha NE 68114
Joseph A. Pace - Omaha NE 68122

Joseph A. Pace - Omaha NE 68122
International Classification:
E01F 1300
US Classification:
49 34, 49 9, 49 49
Abstract:
A flexible gate is disclosed which comprises a plurality of segments. The segments may be connected by at least one coupling. When the flexible gate is acted on by a force, the flexible gate may flex. When the force is no longer present, the flexible gate may return to a substantially straight position. The segments may be removed or added as needed to repair broken segments or to adjust the length of the flexible gate.
Railroad Crossing Traffic Warning System Apparatus And Method Therefore
US Patent:
5954299, Sep 21, 1999
Filed:
Apr 6, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/056201
Inventors:
Joseph A. Pace - Omaha NE
Assignee:
EVA Signal Corporation - Bennington NE
International Classification:
B61L 2900
US Classification:
246293
Abstract:
A railroad crossing traffic warning system for alerting a motorist approaching a railroad crossing to the presence of an oncoming train. The system comprises a series of magnetometer sensor probes buried in the right-of way adjacent to a railroad track at predetermined distances from the railroad crossing. These sensors provide a signal to a controller unit when the presence of a train is sensed. The controller unit first determines the speed at which the oncoming train is traveling and the time it will take for the train to reach the crossing and then activates an improved warning apparatus at a predetermined amount of time before the train reaches the crossing. The improved warning apparatus comprises an X-shaped railroad crossing warning sign or "crossbuck" having a plurality of light emitting diodes ("LED") or the like mounted on the across the center thereof, a plurality of strobe lights, and a train direction indicator comprising a plurality of lamps which are lighted sequentially to indicate the direction in which the oncoming train is traveling. The system may be powered by a rechargeable battery which may be recharged by a solar panel array allowing the system to be utilized at crossings located in rural areas where a source of AC electrical power is not readily available.

Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a train detection system for detecting the velocity, presence, and direction of a railroad car which may be utilized in existing railroad crossing installations. The train detection system is suitable for self-testing of its components and if an anomaly has been detected, the train detection system is capable of placing the system in a fail-safe state. The train detection system of the present invention is also capable of constant communication between the sensor of said system and the implementing device of the train detection system via a wireless link.
