Title: Multi-tab folder for ring type stretch film wrapping machine, and a method of operating the same
Inventor: ZITELLA MARCO
IPC: B65B63/02
Filed: 2002-08-23
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.

Title: Simultaneous detection isotopic ratio mass spectrometer
Inventor: MERREN THOMAS OLIVER
IPC: H01J49/30
Filed: 1999-04-19
Abstract: The invention comprises a mass spectrometer 1 and a method of mass spectrometry that is especially useful for the measurement of the isotopic composition of hydrogen in the presence of a helium carrier gas. Interference to the accurate measurement of the small HD+ peak at mass-to-charge ratio 3 by the much larger He+ peak at mass-to- charge ratio 4 is reduced by provision of an energy filter 35 in the ion detector assembly used to collect HD+ ions. This prevents ions of He+ which have lost energy through scattering, etc giving rise to a signal from HD+ detector and distorting the deuterium hydrogen isotopic ratio measurement. Such a mass spectrometer 1 is typically used in conjunction with a continuous flow inlet system 4 based on an elemental analyzer that converts hydrogen present in a sample to gaseous hydrogen in a flow of helium carrier gas. Another embodiment of the invention provides a similar mass spectrometer useful for carbon or oxygen isotopic determinations in carbon dioxide gas.

Inventor: BURGESS ROGER ALAN
IPC: B29C70/44
Filed: 2004-03-19
Abstract: A method of forming a unitary, composite structural member, and a member formed in accordance with the process. The process involves stitching a plurality of warp knit panel sections together to generally form a plurality of independent panel sections. The sections are placed within the dies of a molding tool such that a rib portion of each section aligns.  Inflatable bladders are then slipped into voids formed in between the various panel sections of the assembly. The bladders are inflated to hold the panel sections in the shape of the final product and to hold the rib portions in contact with one another. Resin is then infused into the panels that make up the assembly. The assembly is then cured. When the panels are removed from the molding tool a unitary, complexly shaped, composite structural member is formed. The invention provides the advantage of not requiring any subsequent manufacturing step such as bonding or mechanical fastening of two or more sub-panels in order to form the finished structural part.
