Title: A multi-element airfoil for pulp screens
Inventor: OLSON JAMES A
IPC: B07B1/20
Filed: 2003-12-04
Abstract: The operation of pulp screening apparatus (10) may be improved by employing a multi element foil (14) having a leading foil section (22) and a trailing fo il section (24) spaced from and trailing leading section (14) so that adjacent surfaces of the sections one formed by a portion of a pressure side (38) of the leading section (22) and the other by the leading end (40) of the traili ng foil (24) section define opposed walls of a passage (42) for fluid directing fluid flow from the pressure side (28) of the leading foil (22) section to a cambered low pressure side (34) of the trailing section (24). The angle of attack (.alpha.) of the complete multi element foil (14) is set to be significantly less than the angle of attack of the trailing foil section (24 ) to increase the negative pressure pulse generated by the trailing section (2 4) and thereby improve operation of the screening device.

Title: Process for preparing filled cracker products
Inventor: GERARD KRISTINE
IPC: A21D13/00
Filed: 2005-05-05
Abstract: Provided is a process for preparing filled cracker snacks containing a creamy, lubricious low A w and bake stable filler encased within crisp oven-baked cracker with efficiency and consistency despite the difficult rheology of the filler. In a first step, a smooth textured, bakable filling is prepared comprising an oil phase, an aqueous phase and a solids phase by a process comprising blending the ingredients and mixing with high shear to form a homogeneous filler having a viscosity of greater than 1.5 x 10 5 centipoise. Also prepared are top and bottom sheets of cracker dough, the bottom of which is moved at a predetermined horizontal velocity for depositing a plurality of continuous or intermittent streams of a bakable filling thereon from a depositor comprising a plurality of openings. The top dough sheet is then placed over the bottom sheet, and the sheets are cut and/or scored in a predetermined pattern to form a composite unbaked dough and filling. Finally, the composite is baked sufficiently to provide a crisp outer crust that exhibiting textural and microbiological stability.

Abstract: A Flow control element (50) (e.g., a baby bottle nipple or a child sippy cup flow control valve) that includes a tube-like wall section defining a flow channel (56), and a substantially flat membrane (55) supported by the wall section such that membrane impedes flow through the flow channel to an external region. The membrane punctured to form multiple, substantially round pinholes (58, 59) arranged in two-dimensional pattern that remain closed to prevent fluid flow under normal atmospheric conditions, and open to facilitate fluid flow rate through the membrane under an applied pressure differential (e.g., when sucked on by a child). The wall section has greater rigidity than the membrane (which is formed from a relatively highly elastic material).  Different sized pinholes are produced using different sized pins, thereby facilitating different flow rates in response to different applied pressure differentials. The pinholes are generated while stretching the membrane in a radial direction.

Abstract: This invention provides a safety measure while operating a standard sized child's stroller. Strollers are widely used everyday and I hope with this invention there will be an awareness of child safety while using a stroller as well as comfort for the person who is pushing the stroller.   By attaching a simple trigger mechanism to a stroller handle which is attached to a cable running from a 12 volt battery located below the stroller. A level of speed is maintain both during inclining and declining.   When reaching an incline while pushing the stroller, simply squeeze the trigger and the 12 volt battery will kick in and rotate the wheels of the stroller to a level of speed that is comfortable to push.   Much the same as inclining but which is far more important as far as the safety of a child is concerned. When in a decline position the trigger when applied will once again bring the wheels on the stroller to a regulated speed which will in turn prevent "runaway stroller" which is although not that common could easily be eliviated by the use of the Safety Glider.

Title: System and method for treating drilling mud in oil and gas well drilling applications
Inventor: DE BOER LUC
IPC: E21B21/06
Filed: 2004-03-16
Abstract: A system and method for controlling drilling mud density at a location either at the seabed (or just above the seabed) or alternatively below the seabed of wells in deep water and ultra deep water applications are disclosed. The present invention combines a base fluid of lesser density than the mud required at the wellhead to produce a diluted mud in the riser. By combining the appropriate quantities of drilling mud with base fluid, a riser mud density at or near the density of seawater may be achieved. The present invention also includes a wellhead injection device for injecting the base fluid into the rising drilling mud. The riser charging lines are used to carry the low density base fluid to the injection device for injection into the return mud. At the surface, the diluted return mud is passed through a treatment system to cleanse the mud of drill cuttings and to separate the heavier drilling mud from the lighter base fluid. The present invention further includes a control unit for manipulating drilling fluid systems and displaying drilling and drilling fluid data.
