Title: Apparatus for loading stacked article groups into cartons
Inventor: ZIEGLER KELLY W
IPC: B65B35/20
Filed: 1997-03-26
Granted: 2002-08-13
Abstract: An apparatus (10) for loading stacked article groups (14) into cartons (16) in a continuous motion cartoner assembly (12). The barrel cam loading apparatus (10) or article group transport mechanism (24) is particularly suited to loading article groups that are unstable or whose articles tend to spin and kick articles out of the carton. The article group transfer mechanism (10) loads the stacked group by having the lower article group (36) lead the upper article group (40) which tends to make the articles tip backward into a stable contact with the article group transfer mechanism, and by forming the upper article group into a nested configuration which has a thinner loading dimension and resists kicking out an article.

Abstract: Apparatus for carrying out a process between first and second immiscible fluids, comprises first and second channels (2, 4) defining flow paths (24), for permitting fluid flow of respective first and second immiscible fluids therethrough. Portions of the flow paths are disposed close to, or adjacent to, one another and communicate with one another to define a region (3) in which, in use, a stable interface (6) between the fluids is formed. One or more dimensions of the region (3) are varied along the length of the interface (6) in a direction of fluid flow to compensate for variation in the properties of the fluids during the carrying out of the process and thereby maintain stability of the interface (6).

Granted: 2007-06-19
Abstract: A system for providing synchronization and information exchange in a network such as a digital television broadcast network using a network management operations and control paradigm. A management entity component, such as a computer workstation operated at a control center, coordinates the actions of different agent components, such as hardware used at the headend or uplink site of a television network. The agent components are used to provide conditional access to a television signal by inserting conditional access data into the transmitted programming. Management information bases (MIBs) are provided for the agent components and the management component. The agent components update their MIBs with information of the communication network, such as changes in a television event schedule. The management component periodically reads the agents' MIBs to obtain the updated information and store it in its own MIB. The management component provides information to the agents' MIBs according to the updated information obtained from the agents to synchronize the insertion of data into the digital broadcast data stream by the agents.

IPC: B32B15/20
Filed: 2000-08-30
Granted: 2005-12-27
Abstract: The coating structure having a corrosion resistance of the invention contains a formation film formed on the surface of an aluminum alloy material. The formation film is subjected to a zirconium phosphate treatment. Because the zirconium phosphate reacts with an oxide film on the surface of the aluminum alloy to form a zirconium boehmite layer and to increase the adhesion of the coating material, a corrosion resisting structure is obtained without need of a sealing treatment while restraining the increase of the product cost. Also, a primer layer is formed on the outer surface of the formation film and the primer layer is composed of phosphomolybdic acid.

Abstract: There is provided a driving force control system for a four-wheel drive vehicle. An automatic-mode transmitted torque is calculated based on operating conditions of the vehicle. When lock mode-executing conditions including operation of a lock switch by the driver are satisfied, a lock mode in which the engagement forces of the clutches are set to a lock-mode transmitted torque, including a lockable transmitted torque which can lock the front wheels and the rear wheels to each other. Further, the lock-mode transmitted torque is limited depending on a traveling condition of the vehicle such that the lock-mode transmitted torque is held below the lockable transmitted torque. When the automatic-mode transmitted torque is larger than the limited lock-mode transmitted torque during the lock mode, the engagement forces of the clutches are set to the automatic-mode transmitted torques.
