Patent CA-2117415-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LIECHTY DERYLL L
IPC: B23P19/08
Filed: 1994-07-25
Abstract: Piston-ringing apparatus comprises a tubular piston nest member for receiving each piston to locate the piston groove in a predetermined ring-receiving position, a plurality of ring cartridges positionable one at a time in alignment with the piston nest member. The aligned ring cartridge is engaged to the piston nest member to permit transfer of rings from the ring cartridge to the piston nest member and disengage the aligned ring cartridge when empty of rings. The stack of rings on the cartridge is moved by opposing fingers toward the piston groove to position an endmost ring residing on the nest member in the groove of each successive piston received in the nest member while the aligned ring cartridge is engaged thereto. A fiber optic switch is provided for directing a light beam tangentially through the piston groove to determine whether a ring is positioned therein. The switch provides a finger motor drive signal to stop feeding of a ring to the piston groove when a ring is present in the piston groove. When the aligned ring cartridge empty of rings is disengaged from the piston nest member for replacement by another ring cartridge full of rings, the opposing fingers are operable to move the stack of rings residing only on the nest member to position an endmost ring thereof in the groove of each successive piston received in the nest member. In this way, there is no interruption in the ringing of successive pistons when the aligned ring cartridge is disengaged from the nest member for replacement.

Title: Method and apparatus for stabilizing laser diode energy output
Inventor: CARL JAMES A
IPC: H01S5/062
Filed: 1993-02-18
Abstract: A method and apparatus for maintaining a controlled precise energy output level for a laser diode (12), particularly useful in a precision scanning environment, provide for a thermal stabilization current to be added to the normal bias exposure current of the diode (12). The thermal stabilization current is modeled to account for the temperature variation of the laser diode junction which affects the light energy optut as a function of current. The addition of the thermal stabilization current provides a substan-tially flat and constant, precise output energy from the laser diode (12) during its "on" time as a function of an input exposure value.

Title: Method and apparatus for drying solid foodstuffs
Inventor: STEVENS MARTINUS P J M
IPC: A23B7/02
Filed: 1994-10-27
Abstract: A method and apparatus for drying solid foodstuffs is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a gas premeable conveyor belt, a plurality of heaters arranged under the conveyor belt. The apparatus further comprises a plurality of coolers. A cool gas is supplied to a first heater, heated and drawn through the conveyor belt by a first fan. The gas is transported back under the conveyor belt to a second heater, and then again drawn through the conveyor belt by a second fan. Thus, the gas is led through and along the conveyor belt along a corkscrew-shaped path against the direction of supply of the foodstuffs. As the gas is heated along its path, the gastemperature is lowest at the first location where the gas is drawn through the conveyor belt, which first location is nearest the discharge of the apparatus.

Inventor: GUNTER CHARLES E
IPC: E03F3/04
Filed: 1994-12-30
Abstract: A drainage channel system for forming a trench is disclosed according to the present invention. The drainage channel system includes a number of precast drainage channel sections and one or more alignment keys for aligning and interlocking adjacent drainage channel sections.  Each alignment key includes first and second opposed, inwardly facing jaw members shaped for longitudinally bridging across a predetermined exterior portion of adjacent first and second sidewalls, respectively, of adjacent drainage channel sections.  Accordingly, each jaw member engages the predetermined exterior portions of the respective sidewalls to longitudinally interlock the drainage channel sections.  In particular, each jaw member includes opposed clamping tabs having longitudinally opposed surfaces which apply a longitudinally compressive force to the adjacent drainage channel sections.  In addition to longitudinally interlocking the adjacent drainage channel sections, the alignment key advantageously includes surfaces which substantially align the adjacent drainage channel sections both vertically and laterally.

Title: Ribbon-type dispenser cap
Inventor: STULL GENE
IPC: B65D47/24
Filed: 1995-01-17
Abstract: A dispensing cap construction for containers includes a cap body for attachment to a container neck, the cap body having a discharge spout portion, and a closure cap turnably carried by the cap body and overlying the spout portion. The closure cap has a non-round orifice, and a stop-per blade is located in the closure cap and receivable in the orifice so as to close off the same. Resilient opposite-ly-disposed spaced-apart support legs are connected with the stopper blade and mount the latter on the spout portion.          The resilient legs retain the stopper blade against out-ward axial movement with respect to the spout portion of the cap body while simultaneously enabling limited rotary movement of the stopper blade with the closure cap as the latter is shifted axially outward on the cap body, to thereby effect removal of the stopper blade from the ori-fice. The invention has the advantage that the stopper blade does not take a "set", as in most prior constructions, and there is thus greatly reduced the possibility of break-age or malfunctioning.
