Abstract: A conveyor system is provided including a platform for attachment to a conveyor which may be utilized for transporting items of various sizes and weights to designated output destinations along the conveyor. The platforms may be used for the transporting of objects only or may include a variety of conveyor equipment such as baskets, parts bins or parcel ejection mechanisms. The system utilizes a plurality of hinged conveyor trays which are connected to an underlying conveyor via a plurality of flexible edge retainer members that secure the edges of the platforms to the underlying conveyor surface and isolate adjacent platforms from each other. The platforms are secured in place by a medially located center locking mechanism. The system may utilize a conventional belt conveyor onto which the platforms are connected. Ejection mechanisms may be built in or attached to the platforms for diverting objects from the upper surface of the platforms to desired locations. A programmable controller may be provided to control the material handling system and the discharge of items from the surface of platforms by the ejection mechanisms. The system may be easily repaired by removing individual platforms from the underlying conveyor quickly and without tools. The system may be operated at high speeds and at reduced noise levels.

Title: Self-latching solenoid valve assembly. solenoid pole piece has through passage for push pin
IPC: F16K31/06
Filed: 2000-07-03
Abstract: A solenoid actuated valve includes a valve member 22 positioned by pushpin 84 and spring 46.  The pin 84 passes through a passage in ferromagnetic pole piece 74.  A permanent magnet 90 is movable within solenoid bobbin 60.  When the solenoid is energized with a pulse of current in the appropriate direction, the magnet 90 is driven towards the pole piece.

Title: Heat shrinkable breathable film for cheese packaging
Inventor: WEST MICHELLE B
IPC: B65D75/00
Filed: 2000-10-02
Abstract: A heat shrinkable multi-layer packaging film that has a combination of low oxygen transmission and high carbon dioxide transmission.  The film comprises a barrier layer that is made with a co-polyamide having a melting temperature of less that 150°C.  The film has a hot tensile strength at 85°C of at least 1800 psi in at least one direction and a percent elongation at 85°C of at least 120% in at least one direction.  The film exhibits a CO2:O2 transmission ratio of at least 7.0 at 50% relative humidity.  The high tensile strength and percent elongation at or about the shrink temperature are required in order to avoid product deformation, and for irregularly shaped products, allows the film to draw into crevices without imploding.  The low oxygen, high carbon dioxide transmission is desirable to retard spoilage and extend shelf life of products.
