Patent NZ-537656-A (NZ)
Title: Method for the conveyance of postal items and package mailbox
Inventor: MAYER BORIS
Filed: 2003-08-08
Abstract: This method for conveying mailpieces uses an electronic parcel compartment system. When a mailpiece is deposited, the electronic parcel compartment system records identification information that identifies the mailpiece, and/or it generates the identification information. During subsequent processing steps of the mailpieces, the identification information is recorded and/or evaluated in a data processing unit that stores transport data, and the identification information is stored in the electronic parcel compartment system and/or in a central data processing unit. The identification information contains monetary information, in the area of the electronic parcel compartment system; a payment checking procedure is carried out on the basis of the recorded identification information. An access possibility for depositing a mailpiece is only activated if the payment checking procedure has confirmed the presence of monetary information in a predefinable amount. The size of the compartment that opens is directly related to a set of numbers of the recorded identification information and a compartment of the appropriate size opens for a set of numbers of a certain price class.

Title: Wear member fastened to support assembly for excavator, with conical wedge having thread form to engage thread in corresponding hole through wear assembly
Inventor: BRISCOE TERRY L
IPC: E02F9/28
Filed: 2004-04-29
Abstract: A lock is disclosed that includes a wedge that is used to releasably secure separable components of an assembly together. The wedge can be used with a spool. The wedge and spool are screw coupled together to drive the wedge into and out of an opening in the assembly without hammering or prying. The direct coupling of the wedge and spool eliminates the need for bolts, washers, nuts and other hardware so as to minimize the number of parts. As a result, the lock is inexpensive to make, easy to use, and unlikely to become inoperative because of lost or broken parts or due to fines or other difficulties encountered in harsh digging environments. Further, the wedge can be driven into the assembly to provide the degree of tightness necessary for the intended operation and/or to re-tighten the assembly after incurring wear during use. A latch assembly is preferably provided to securely hold the wedge in place and avoid an undesired loss of parts during use.

Title: Feeding bottle with an air intake valve that changes characteristics depending on the orientation of the bottle
Inventor: REES ARNOLD EDWARD
IPC: A61J11/02
Filed: 2005-05-17
Abstract: A feeding bottle (16) with an air in-take valve (40) is disclosed. The bottle (16) has an open end with a nipple (12) attached. A flange portion, as part of the nipple (12) or as a separate piece, is arranged under the nipple (12) and has an air conduit (22) extending from an air in-take (51) into the bottom of the bottle (16). The conduit (22) has a vent valve (40) at its distal end, the vent valve (40) being configured to close as a result of the pressure of a head of liquid in the bottle (16) and to open under a negative pressure applied to the bottle in the range 1-25 mB. Since the vent valve (40) is above the liquid level during feeding it does not have to prevent the liquid from entering the conduit (22) and so may be made to activate at a low differential pressure.

Title: Method and device for franking postal deliveries
Inventor: MEYER BERND
IPC: G07B17/00
Filed: 2005-07-25
Abstract: A method for franking mailpieces is disclosed. An operating unit (BE) is operated separately from a franking unit (FE). The operating unit (BE) transmits a transaction request (B1) to a separate authorization unit (BR). The authorization unit (BR) ascertains on the basis of an authorization profile whether the user is authorized to use the operating unit (BE). The transmitted transaction request is authenticated by the authorization unit (BR) according to the ascertained authorization. The authorization unit (BR) converts the authenticated transaction request (Bl) into a transaction job, which is transmitted (B3) to the franking unit (FE). The authorization unit (BR) is authenticated (B4) in the area of the franking unit (FE) and the franking unit (FE) checks whether the authorization unit (BR) is authorized to authorize users and/or transaction requests transmitted by users. The transaction job is processed (B4) in the franking unit (FE) subsequently, and the result of the execution of the transaction job is sent out (B5) by the franking unit.

Patent NZ-564490-A (NZ)
Title: Weatherboard connection and alignment bracket and building system
Inventor: ALLAN TIMOTHY MARK
Filed: 2007-12-19
Abstract: A cladding system for a building is disclosed. The cladding system allows attachment of cladding elements (2) such as weatherboards to be attached to a wall support structure with out the attachment means such as nails being visible from the outside. The system includes a plurality of cladding elements (2), and a plurality of brackets (3) that are attached to the cladding elements (2). A cladding element (2c) is directly or indirectly attached to structural member(s) of a building. A bracket (3) is attached to the back of a second cladding element (2d), laterally offset with respect to the structural member(s) of the building. The second cladding element (2d) is located vertically by placing the top edge of the first cladding element (2c) into the space between the bottom of the bracket (3) and the second cladding element (2d). Thus the two cladding elements (2c, 2d) overlap and the top of the outside face of the first cladding element (2c) is shielded by the bottom of the second cladding element (2d). This has the advantage of hiding any attachment means that connects the first cladding element (2c) to the wall frame and preventing any movement of the bottom of the second cladding element (2d) relative to the first (2c) without recourse to exposed nails and the like.
