Bearing

Priority 1 (inventor's own work) and 4 (business record): shows an earlier business name ("Andromeda") and a Varese (VA) filing, consistent with Heos's "Busto Arsizio (Va)". No patent covers L.M.D. waves, water antennas, the Xenon/Argon generators or the THOR detectors, so the 2011-2012 claims were never put through patent examination as far as found. Next run: Espacenet for family members and other filings; Italian UIBM database.
