Patent NZ-209607-A (NZ)
Title: Glass sheet bending apparatus:use of counterbalanced bending member
Inventor: NITSCHKE D M
IPC: C03B35/14
Filed: 1984-09-20
Abstract: @ An apparatus disclosed for use in bending heated sheets of glass transported generally horizontally on a conveyor within a furnace heating chamber includes a holder and a counter-balanced bending member, both of which are located above the conveyor in a spaced relationship such that a heated sheet of glass can be transported under the holder. The holder includes a curved, downwardly facing surface with spaced openings in which vacuum is drawn to receive the glass sheet from the conveyor. Gas, such as air, is blown upwardly from below the conveyor against the heated sheet of glass such that the sheet is moved upwardly and into engagement with the curved surface of the holder. The bending member then moves downwardly below the holder surface and thereafter upwardly against the heated sheet of glass to provide bending thereof to the curved shape of the holder surface. The bending member then moves back to its home position above the holder surface. A carrier mold ring moves under the supported glass and the vacuum is then terminated so the glass drops onto the ring and bends under the bias of gravity in a manner that allows the glass to be further bent. Subsequently, the mold ring is moved from the furnace to a quench unit that tempers the glass.

IPC: A22C11/02
Filed: 1988-11-21
Abstract: Packaging system for shirred sticks of sausage casing. The sticks are packaged in plastic sheet material which may form part of a plastic roll, the sheet material 10 being formed with 'U'-shaped depressions 11 having a width of the diameter of the slugs of shirred sausage casing which are to be transported, and having a length which is the length of the slug. A slug 12 is ejected from a shirring machine 13 automatically into a retaining device 14 which is then opened to release the slug and allow it to drop into one of the depressions or troughs 11 in the sheet 10. The sheet is indexed forward to the next depression to allow the next ejected slug or stick to be inserted into the next depression or trough. The sheet may if desired be sealed by a foil layer to control humidity within the package or it may be left open. As illustrated the sheet at this stage is rolled with the open side of the depression facing inwardly. The completed roll may then be bagged in a foil container, and the foil container may have a sealed slot in it through which the slugs may be ejected. The completed roll or magazine of slugs is then transported in its sealed foiled container to a stuffing machine.

Title: Cutting and edge shaping of heated glass whilst maintaining the optical quality of the cut glass
Inventor: MOULY RAYMOND JULES
IPC: C03B21/04
Filed: 1988-12-06
Abstract: Glass shapes and sheets are cut directly from a heated glass ribbon while maintaining the optical quality of the cut glass.

Title: Valve timing system with rotation of cam followers to provide earlier or later engagement between cam and followers
Inventor: ROBERTS FREDERICK WILLIAM
IPC: F01L1/08
Filed: 1997-04-16
Abstract: A variable valve timing system is applicable for vary the opening and closing cycle of the inlet and outlet valves of an internal combustion engine. The system comprises a cam follower (4) and a cam (1) which is rotated about the cam shaft (3) to move the valve between its open and closed position. To vary the cycle of the opening and closing of the valves, a rotational means (not shown) is connected to the cam follower (4) to rotate the cam follower (4) such that the cam follower (4) and cam (1) are out of alignment such that the cam lobe engages the contact surface (2) at a higher point and hence earlier than if the cam follower (4) and the cam (1) are aligned. Therefore the valve is opened sooner and closed later, increasing the degrees of cycle for which the valve is open, for example, as the engine revolutions increase.
