Title: Plastic container having gasketless seal
Inventor: MILLER MICHAEL N
IPC: B65D43/02
Filed: 2008-02-28
Abstract: A molded plastic container, such as a five gallon pail, that includes a lid and main body that are selectively attachable to each other without a resilient gasket.

The flexible sealing finger is received within a sealing chamber formed as part of the rim. The sealing chamber is defined by a gland seal such that when the lid is attached to the main body, both the flexible finger and the gland seal can deflect to create multiple sealing points between the flexible sealing finger and the sealing chamber. A latch ring is formed on the outer surface of the main body and engages a locking tab formed on the lid to hold the flexible finger in the sealing chamber.
Patent CA-2623804-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RUMEMPER HENDRIK
IPC: C22F1/04
Filed: 2008-02-27
Abstract: A process for increasing the thermal radiation absorbance of objects that are to be melted or softened. An agent is applied to the object, such as an aluminum sow, and the object is placed in a furnace. The furnace exposes the object to thermal radiation, such as by blasting the sow with jets of burning gas, and the material melts. The increase in absorbance on the outer surface of the object reduces the amount of energy needed to melt or soften the material, as thermal energy is absorbed by the object more rapidly than uncoated materials.

Abstract: Injection molding method, apparatus, and molded product, whereby a lifting structure and/or step is provided with a lifting portion which is configured to contact substantially one half of an end of the molded plastic article along a line substantially perpendicular to the lifting direction. Since the molded plastic article is lifted by its end, the article does not have to be solidified at its interior, thus allowing earlier removal of the article from the mold, reducing cycle time. Preferably, the neck ring engages only an outer circumferential portion of the molded plastic article during a majority of a mold opening stroke. Also preferably, a core-facing surface of the lifting structure forms a vent gap with the core, when in a mold-closed position.

Patent CA-2645794-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ELEFTHERIADES GEORGE V
IPC: G02B27/00
Filed: 2008-12-04
Abstract: A method and apparatus for near-field focusing of an incident wave, over a range of frequencies from microwaves to optical frequencies, into a sub-wavelength spot having a peak-to-null beamwidth of .lambda./10. The screen may be made out of closely spaced, unequal slots cut on a metallic sheet. Nano-scale focusing capability may be achieved with a simple structure of three slots on a metallic sheet, which can be readily implemented using current nanofabrication technologies. Unlike negative-refractive-index focusing implementations, this "meta-screen" does not suffer from image degradation when losses are introduced and is easily scalable from microwave to Terahertz frequencies and beyond. The slotted geometry is designed using a theory of shifted beams to determine the necessary weighting factors for each slot clement, which are then converted to appropriate slot dimensions.

Filed: 2009-04-09
Abstract: The equipment described herein is a front mounted frame designed to be attached to a military vehicle. It is used to detonate explosives device before the military equipment comes in contact with the IED and explodes. It is expected that severe damage will be inflicted on the IED Roller upon contact with the explosive, thereby preventing damage to the tank, APC or Hummer and personnel inside. Two axles equipped with solid rubber tires will cover the entire width of the military vehicle.  Each tire will be mounted on independent suspension to facilitate complete coverage of the road in front of the vehicle. The independent suspension system will prevent the IED Roller from interference from the ground. A cable system connected to the frame of the IED Roller and the vehicle will prevent the roller from being pushed upward by the explosion and contacting the vehicle. A quick release system enables the Roller to be disconnected and left at the scene of the explosion if necessary. An electric over hydraulic system will control the steering. A joystick inside the vehicle will be used to steer the IED Roller.
