Maritime industry inventions

[edit]

Elizondo is an inventor, who has been granted three patents related to the maritime transport industry by the United States Patent Office to optimize and make more efficient the operation and loading of cargo ships at container ports.[1][2][3][4][5] Together with partner John Robert, Elizondo was reported to have founded a company named Never Ship Empty Inc. while both worked at the Department of Defense.[2] Elizondo and Robert credited the ideas to their daily commute from Kent Island in Maryland over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge to the Department of Defense, and observing long queues of ships bound for the Port of Baltimore.[2][1] On December 18, 2010, Elizondo and Robert met with Port of Baltimore officials to discuss the port signing on to their proposals.[1]

Elizondos patents include:

  1. Hydro-Max motorboat propeller anti-slippage shroud[3]
  2. Interchangeable superstructures and hulls for ocean going vessels[4]
  3. System and method of shipping scheduling involving parallel port operations using prepositioned vessels (with Elton John Robert and Atmar Keith Robert)[5]
