Companies in this industry manufacture a wide variety of electrical devices and components, including lamps, lighting, household appliances, motors, transformers, switchboards, and batteries. Currently, appliances companies in Tennessee employ 17,753 workers, the fourth highest level of employment in the nation.1 Since 2012, employment grew by 11.2%, significantly higher than the regional or national growth rates. This job creation (1,789 net new jobs) was the fourth largest increase in employment in the nation. Major household appliance manufacturing made the largest employment gains in Tennessee during this time, adding 2,216 net new jobs. Power, distribution, and specialty transformer manufacturing achieved a 50.1% increase in employment. Tennessee’s employment concentration for these industries (3.13) is the second highest in the nation behind Wisconsin. Tennessee has the highest employment concentration in the nation for appliance manufacturing. Average employee earnings for this cluster in Tennessee are $87,297. Average employee earnings in lighting equipment manufacturing ($114,257) rank first nationally.2 Tennessee also ranks second nationally for average employee earnings in lighting fixture manufacturing as well as switchboard manufacturing. In 2017, Tennessee appliance companies earned $1.4 billion. Household appliance manufacturers accounted for 11.3% of all cluster revenue.

June 2018 2 Between 2017 and 2022, Tennessee is predicted to continue growing employment at a rate greater than the regional and national averages. The three states that currently outrank Tennessee in employment – Ohio, Wisconsin, and California – are expected to each lose 600 jobs or more during this time. Tennessee has 141 companies in this cluster. Switchgear and switchboard apparatus manufacturing accounts for the most significant share of business locations in this cluster (32 total establishments), followed by major household appliance manufacturing (23). Overall, Tennessee’s appliances industries have an establishment size of 126 workers on average, which is the fourth highest average of any US state. Establishment size varies substantially between industries.

The concentration of workers aged 45- 64 is higher in appliances industries (50.6%) than the overall workforce (42.9%). Gender demographics in this cluster also differ from the overall workforce. 66.1% of workers in the appliances industries are male. Only 33.9% are female. Across all industries, male and females account for roughly the same share of the workforce (50.9 and 49.1%, respectively). June 2018 4 Caucasians account for a lower share of appliances employment (77.0%) than the overall labor force (74.7%). African-Americans comprise a slightly higher percentage of employment in appliances industries (20.0%) than across all industries (18.0%). Tennessee’s post-secondary institutions offer 223 programs related to appliance industry occupations. In 2016, these institutions produced 24,555 graduates with the skills necessary to pursue a career in these industries. Industries Lighting Fixture Manufacturing With 25 total businesses and 1,382 employees, this industry is a key component of Tennessee’s appliances cluster. Businesses in this industry manufacture residential lighting fixtures as well as lighting fixtures for commercial, industrial, and institutional settings.

  • Design Patenting by Organizations, CY 2013
    DESIGN PATENTING BY ORGANIZATIONS 2013 March 2014 U.S. PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE ELECTRONIC INFORMATION PRODUCTS DIVISION - PTMT P.O. BOX 1450 ALEXANDRIA, VA 22313-1450 tel (571) 272-5600 / FAX (571) 273-0110 A PATENT TECHNOLOGY MONITORING TEAM REPORT Design Patenting By Organizations 2013 This report, prepared from the Technology Assessment and Forecast (TAF) database, profiles design patents granted during calendar year 2013. Part A1 Part A1 presents patent counts by origin, U.S. and foreign. Individual counts are also presented for each of the top 36 patenting countries. Patent origin is determined by the residence of the first-named inventor listed on a patent. Patent ownership-category information reflects ownership at the time of patent grant and does not reflect subsequent changes in ownership. If more than one assignee (the entity, if any, to which the patent rights have been legally assigned) was declared at the time of grant, a patent is attributed to the ownership-category of the first-named assignee. The "U.S. Corporations" and "Foreign Corporations" ownership categories count predominantly corporate patents; however, patents assigned to other organizations such as small businesses, nonprofit organizations, universities, etc. are also included in these categories. While the "U.S. Government" ownership category includes only patents granted to the Federal Government, no such distinction is made for the "Foreign Government" ownership category. The "U.S. Individuals" and "Foreign Individuals" ownership categories include patents for which ownership was assigned to an individual as well as patents for which no assignment of ownership was made at the time of grant (i.e., ownership was retained by the inventor(s)).

  • CEO Duty Deferral Letter to President Trump
    March 31, 2020 The President The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., NW Washington, DC 20500 Dear President Trump, Thank you for the unprecedented steps your Administration has taken to meet the enormous liquidity challenges that have been created by the economic fallout of the deadly COVID 19 pandemic. These steps have included delaying many payments, such as income tax and student loans. Until these payments are ultimately made, these delays will give Americans access to much needed cash to help them survive during these challenging times. In that vein, we are writing to ask for additional, urgent help this week. We are urgently asking you to delay the collection of duties, including those that many companies were required to pay this past Friday, for a period of 90-180 days to give companies like ours access to cash that would normally be paid to the U.S. government. Delaying duties helps us preserve cash flow – critically important during a prolonged period of little to no revenue – allowing us to keep our businesses in operation so we can preserve U.S. jobs. At the same time, delaying duties does not undermine the effect of tariffs on trade flows because the money is still due. Mr. President, only you can take this swift action, but in doing so, you would provide immediate relief to both large and small businesses, including manufacturers, retailers and other service providers, farmers and ranchers. Sincerely, Sarah Adelson Mike Altirs Terry Anderson CEO Senior Executive Vice President / CEO Sally LaPointe Partner American Promotional Events, New York, NY Ballet Group Inc Inc DBA TNT Fireworks GMA Accessories, Inc Florence, AL Sachin Ahluwalia Sondra Roberts Inc President South Hackensack, NJ Michael Antonelli Ank International President New York, NY Carolina Amato CAMT Automotive (NA) Co, President/Designer/Founder Ltd.

Dissenting opinion filed by Circuit Judge REYNA. O’MALLEY, Circuit Judge. Hamilton Beach Brands, Inc. (“Hamilton Beach”) ap- peals from the decision of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia granting in part Sunbeam Products, Inc.’s (“Sunbeam”) motion for sum- mary judgment finding claims 1 and 3–7 (“asserted claims”) of U.S. Patent No. 7,947,928 (“the ’928 patent”) invalid as anticipated. The district court also found that Sunbeam did not literally infringe the asserted claims of the ’928 patent. Hamilton Beach’s appeal is timely, and we have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1295(a)(1). For the reasons below, we affirm the district court’s ruling that the asserted claims are invalid under the on-sale bar.
