We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Patented Design",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Nozzle transforms to drip-free performance from
Spray Nozzle Engineering, which we summarised at the time by saying "The Drip-Pro spray dry nozzle check valve's patented design can be incorporated into new or existing systems and keeps a standard appearance to conventional nozzles".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release World's smallest inverter available online from
RS Components UK: "The V1000 delivers optimum speed control and employs a dual CPU concept with a CPU device that is four times faster than those onboard some inverters".
In August 2007, we covered the news from Kerk Motion Products
concerning its RGSW and RGSWX slides
- take a look at Slides offer precise motion
which says: "Kerk Motion Products' RGSW and RGSWX slides offer precision motion in a convenient package".
Take a look also at the news release from SKF UK, Lubricator extends bearing life,
as well as Quick-release connectors make motorsport safer from Staubli UK (Connectors),
and Clever bearing design reduces drive costs from Micromech.
