Title: Multi-tab folder for ring type stretch film wrapping machine, and a method of operating the same
Inventor: NOAKES KENNETH J
IPC: B65D75/00
Filed: 2002-08-23
Granted: 2008-06-17
Abstract: A new and improved film wrapping or packaging machine has incorporated therein a new and improved mechanism or system for implementing the downward folding of outwardly projecting edge or tab portions of slip sheets interposed between successive tiers, levels, or layers of articles or goods forming a palletized load. The folding mechanism or system comprises a plurality of vertically oriented posts which are initially disposed above the outwardly projecting tab portions, subsequently independently aligned with outer edge portions of the outwardly projecting tab portions of the slip sheets, and thereafter lowered so as engage the tab portions of the slip sheets and fold the same vertically downwardly against the vertical sides of the palletized load such that the downwardly folded tab portions can now be enveloped within the wrapping or packaging film. As the wrapping or packaging film constantly envelops the downwardly folded tab portions, the vertically oriented posts are being moved upwardly so as to constantly be released from their engagement positions with the tab portions until the wrapping or packaging operation or cycle is completed. The film wrapping carriage and the vertically oriented posts are then moved to uppermost positions in preparation for the start of a new wrapping or packaging cycle.

Granted: 2009-09-08
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the configuration of a device-specific program system. Adjusting values that require different loading operations are input during an input phase (t4 to t5). The first adjusting value is then transmitted to the device-specific program system (t8). The device-specific program system carries out a loading operation (t8 to t9) required for the processing of the first adjusting valu e. The second adjusting value is transmitted to the device-specific program system (t10) and a corresponding loading operation is carried out (t10a to t11). The inventive method allows a user to input the second adjusting value already before the first loading operation is completed.

Abstract: A device for the topical delivery of nitric oxide gas to an infected area of skin includes a source of nitric oxide gas (8), a bathing unit (6), a flow control valve (22), and a vacuum unit (10). The bathing unit (6) is adapted to surround the area of the infected skin and form a substantially air-tight seal with the skin surface. The bathing unit (6) is also in fluidic communication with the source of nitric oxide (8). The flow control valve is in position downstream of the source of nitric oxide (8) and upstream of the bathing unit (6). The flow control valve (22) controls the amount of nitric oxide gas that is delivered to the bathing unit(6). The vacuum unit (10) is positioned downstream of the bathing unit (6) and is used to withdraw gas from the bathing unit (6). Application of nitric oxide gas to the infected area of skin reduces pathogen levels in the infected area and promotes the healing process.

Granted: 2012-04-17
Abstract: A system 10 for detecting sliding of a wheel 12 on a rail 14 includes a roller 16 disposed adjacent the rail 14 so that a wheel 12 travelling along the rail 14 can engage the roller 16, and a tachometer 18 coupled with the roller 16 for providing a rotation signal representative of the degree of rotation of the roller. The system 10 includes a computer 20 which receives the rotation signal from the tachometer 18 and by using an appropriate rotation algorithm calculates the degree of rotation of the roller 16. The computer 20 then compares the degree of rotation with a predetermined range of roller rotations and, if the calculated degree of rotation of the roller is less than predicted by analysis, the apparatus 10 provides a signal indicative of the wheel 12 sliding.
