Abstract: A recoilless hammer comprising a moil supported for reciprocal movement along a hammer axis of a housing, a piston moveable within the chamber of an elongate tube extending from the rear of the housing such that it may strike the moil. In a rest position the piston is held forward against the moil by a low pressure air supply delivered from the aft end of the chamber, and the piston is retracted to a charged position at the aft end of the chamber by delivery of high pressure air to act on the fore portion of the piston. Upon actuation of a trigger mechanism, air is vented from the fore end of the chamber to atmosphere causing a pressure unbalance of low magnitude across the piston, such that it accelerates towards and strikes the moil. The chamber is of a length to enable a high energy blow with minimal piston acceleration recoil when the hammer is manually held and operated.

Abstract: A composition and method of making frozen pellets made with juice includes a composition having at least about 50 weight equivalents of juice and a multipart stabilizer that acts as a gelling agent and a viscosifying agent. Frozen pellets are formed from the composition through cryogenic freezing. The resulting pellets contain a high level of juice and have a creamy taste and mouth feel. The multipart stabilizer results in the frozen pellets being free flowing at temperatures below approximately -4°F. Moreover, the multipart stabilizer contributes to the pellets having a high resistance to melting and clumping. In some em-bodiments, the frozen pellets made with juice are blended with frozen pellets made with yogurt to form a frozen food product.
