Patent CA-2720122-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MURRAY IAN N
IPC: H01R13/639
Filed: 2010-10-20
Abstract: The invention is a Power Cord Plug and Electrical Outlet Fastening Bracket and Faceplate. This device serves to prevent the partial decoupling of a power cord plug from an electrical outlet, thus greatly reducing the likelihood of exposed plug prongs creating an electrical hazard. This is achieved by fixing a bracket around the plug to the outlet faceplate. The faceplate has eight slots to permit the bracket(s) to be attached around each of the two electrical outlet sockets. There are two bracket types, each consisting of an upper segment and two legs with four hooked tabs. The first has an interior lip which holds on to the lip of a two prong power cord plug to keep it securely fastened.  The second has anchor points which allow it to be secured to a three prong power cord plug or a two prong plug without a suitable lip.

Title: Twin layer packaging machine
Inventor: DISRUD JEFF A
IPC: B65B3/02
Filed: 2009-06-18
Abstract: A twin layer packaging machine is disclosed for packing cartons with articles such as beverage cans in two layers, a top layer overlying a bottom layer. The packaging machine has a selector flight defining selector bays, a can flight defining can bays, and a carton flight transporting cartons to be packed, all synchronously movable with each other. A single infeed assembly at the upstream end of the machine directs first groups of cans into selector bays on the selector flight, sweeps them into adjacent can bays, and directs second groups of cans into the same selector bays, all on the same level. The selector flight and the second groups of cans in its selector bays then ramps up to an elevated level, from where the second groups of cans are swept from the selector bays into the adjacent can bays atop the already loaded first groups of cans. The thus staged twin layer cans are then pushed into open cartons on the carton flight, whereupon the cartons are closed and sealed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sensor system for detecting the surface structures of several packaged articles (13), comprising at least one laser distance detector (10; 10'; 10"; 10"') that functions according to the triangulation principle and that has means to determine the distance between the laser distance detector (10;  10'; 10"; 10"') and a surface structure of a packaged article (13), whereby the laser distance detector (10; 10'; 10"; 10"') has at least one analog output (15) via which a distance-proportional analog signal can be emitted. According to the invention, the analog output (15) of at least one laser distance detector (10;  10';  10"; 10) is in communication with an evaluation unit (40) via an amplifier circuit, whereby the amplifier circuit encompasses at least one operational amplifier (20; 21) that has two inputs (22; 23; 24; 25), and the analog signal of the laser distance detector (10; 10'; 10"; 10"') is present at a first input (22; 24) of the at least one operational amplifier (20; 21), while a variable reference voltage is present at the other input (23; 25) of the at least one operational amplifier (20; 21), said reference voltage being obtained from the analog signal of the analog output (15), and this analog signal is present at the other input (23; 25) of the operational amplifier (20; 21) via a low-pass filter. The output of the at least one operational amplifier (20; 21) is connected to the evaluation unit (40), as a result of which the amplifier circuit is configured in such a way that abrupt changes in the analog signal bring about a change in the output signal of the at least one operational amplifier (20; 21), whereas more gradual changes in the analog signal do not bring about any change in the output signal of the at least one operational amplifier (20; 21). The evaluation unit (40) has means to evaluate the output signal of the at least one operational amplifier (20; 21).
