Title: Vending machine purchase via cellular telephone
Inventor: WHIGHAM ROGER CHRIS
IPC: H04W92/08
Filed: 2000-12-12
Granted: 2004-08-12
Abstract: There is disclosed a system and method for purchasing a product from an automatic vending machine by means of a consumer's cellular telephone. The consumer requests a product available from the vending machine by dialing a specified telephone number which connects the consumer's cellular telephone to a server operated by a billing agency. The billing agency may include the provider of the product, the telephone company that provides the cellular telephone service, a credit card company, or a bank that has issued a debit card. The server recognizes the request for the product, creates a transaction record, and communicates a vend code to the consumer. The transaction record includes a billing record that the billing agency uses to bill the consumer for the requested product and an inventory record that the product provider uses in connection with restocking the vending machine. Upon receiving the vend code from the server, the consumer transmits the vend code to the vending machine. The vend code may be an RF code, an audible tone code, or a manual code. Upon receipt of the vend code from the consumer, the vending machine dispenses the requested product.

Title: Wrapping objects
Inventor: BENZ GOTTLIEB
IPC: B65B11/10
Filed: 1984-03-19
Granted: 1987-11-12
Abstract: The package to be wrapped is moved during a first step towards a foil section which is extended under tension transversely relative to the direction of movement of the package. During a further course of movement of the package the aforementioned foil section is applied to three sides around the package in a substantially U-shape. Subsequently, a loop is formed from the web-like foil by entraining means which act on the web-like foil. The two runs of the loop are releasably held at their ends by related holding means. These two loop runs of the foil are separated from each other using a cutting knife. The foil section thus produced, which runs along the rear side of the package, has a length which is greater than the height of the package. An end section of this foil section of greater length and which protrudes past the package is now displaced towards and against the underside of the package. A wrapping material preferably consisting of a polyvinylidene chloride foil having self-adhesive properties is used as the web-like foil.

Title: Low vibration resonant scanning unit for miniature optical display apparatus
Inventor: WELLS BENJAMIN A
IPC: G02B26/10
Filed: 1989-02-16
Granted: 1992-01-09
Abstract: A resonant scanning unit utilizes a "tuning fork" design with a mirror (30) mounted on one arm of the tuning fork and a counterbalance mass (40) mounted on the other arm. A voice coil electromagnetic motor (44, 46) mounted between the arms causes the arms to move in opposite directions. Light generated by a line of LEDs is reflected from the oscillating mirror (30) to generate a raster display. Reaction forces generated by the motions of the mirror (30) and counterbalance mass (40) cancel at the device base (21), reducing vibration. In addition, the inventive structure allows placement of the mirror pivot point away from the center of the mirror which allows display devices constructed with the structure to be reduced in size.
