Patent NZ-333638-A (NZ)
Title: Packaging of powders, quantity of powder metered by electrostatically attracting it to charged roller or belt
Inventor: GUMASTE ANAND V
IPC: B65B1/04
Filed: 1997-06-23
Abstract: ry powders are packaged by charging the powder particles and attracting them to a charged belt 24 or a charged roller.  The powder is then carried to a package filling station 30 where the powder is allowed to drop into containers 29.  The charge on the roller or belt and on the powder is controlled so that a predetermined amount of powder is attracted to the belt or roller to form an "image" 26A.  The principle used is similar to that used to deposit toner in a laser printer or photocopier.  The roller or belt may have a photoconductive surface which is charged using a laser beam or similar light source.

Patent NZ-501738-A (NZ)
Title: Horizontal control handle for forklift, handle has internal shaft and ramp cam
Inventor: BERGMAN BRENT A
IPC: G05G9/04
Filed: 1998-07-20
Abstract: A control handle 35 is mounted horizontally in a forklift truck, and is used for controlling movement of the truck, and raising and lowering the forks.  The control handle includes a shaft 150 with a centrally positioned spherical section 160 contained in a socket in support member 170.  The shaft is free to rotate about the center 177 of spherical section 160.  A ramp cam 200 is mounted on the support member surrounding the shaft.  A slider 180 mounted on the shaft is pressed against the cam by spring 190.  This ensures that the shaft and control handle remain centered until acted upon by the truck operator.  Two linear potentiometers provide electrical output signals representing the X and Y positions of the end of the shaft opposite the control handle.  The cam has four distinct compound surfaces.  For vertical movement of the handle, the slopes of the two lower surfaces are greater than the slopes of the two upper surfaces.  The slopes of each surface are also different in the forward and reverse direction.  This arrangement provides the illusion that the same force is required to move the handle in any direction.

Title: Non-contact communication between device and cartridge containing consumable component
Inventor: KOSUGI YASUHIKO
IPC: B41J2/175
Filed: 2002-11-26
Abstract: The ink unit of a printer has a memory circuit (memory element) for non-contact communication. The memory circuit has a hold mode M2 in which memory access commands from the transmitter/receiver are not received, and an active mode M4 in which memory access is permitted upon receipt of a memory access command. The memory circuit shifts into active mode M4 if the ID contained in the active mode command matches its own ID when an active mode command containing the cartridge ID is received from the transmitter/receiver while in hold mode M2. The reception of an anti-collision start command from the transmitter/receiver while in hold mode M2 results in a shift to anti-collision mode.

Title: Enhanced security catch assembly for retaining a handle on a spindle
Inventor: SENGER CHRISTOPHER G
IPC: E05B3/00
Filed: 2003-09-16
Abstract: A catch assembly that locks a handle onto the spindle of a lock mechanism has enhanced resistance to attempts to remove the handle by forcibly driving the catch assembly inwards. The catch assembly includes a base mounted on the spindle having a threaded opening that receives a corresponding threaded retaining pin. The pin is moved axially by rotating it.
