Inventor: LAWRENCE ZULEGER DAVID
IPC: B65B35/20
Filed: 2007-02-20
Granted: 2011-12-22
Abstract: Express Mail No. EV751637878US PATENT Packaging apparatus and method for inserting food articles into a bag of comparable size. The apparatus has a conveyor that orients the product along a longitudinal axis and delivers the food article to a tray disposed below the conveyor so the product drops from the conveyor and onto the tray. The tray and conveyor move at speeds selected so the product maintains its longitudinal orientation as it drops from the conveyor into the product tray. A bag scoop holds the bag mouth open while the tray carrying the product advances into the bag. A product stripper moves into a position behind the bagged product after passage of the tray so that when the tray returns to its start position, the stripper butts against the end of the product and holds the product while the tray slides out of the bag.

Title: Fuzzy logic based viewer identification
Inventor: COX EARL
IPC: H04N21/258
Filed: 2007-05-02
Granted: 2012-07-12
Abstract: A targeted advertising system uses a machine learning tool to select an asset for a current user of a user equipment device, for example, to select an ad for delivery to a current user (1302) of a digital set top box (1304) in a cable network. The machine learning tool first operates in a learning mode to receive user inputs (1310) and develop evidence that can characterize multiple users of the user equipment device audience. In a working mode, the machine learning tool processes current user inputs to match a current user (1302) to one of the identified users of that user equipment device audience. Fuzzy logic may be used to improve development of the user characterizations, as well as matching of the current user to those developed characterizations. In this manner, targeting of assets can be implemented not only based on characteristics of a household but based on a current user within that household.

Abstract: ADHESIVE TAKE-UP, METERING AND SPREADING UNIT, IN PARTICULAR FOR BONDING MACHINES Abstract An adhesive take-up, metering and spreading unit, for bonding machines is 5 truck-mounted so that it can be replaced without having to interrupt the operation of the plant, comprises a plurality of rollers (6, 7, 8, 9) arranged in series, wherein a first rubber clad roller (6) takes up adhesive from a reservoir (10) and transfers it to an anilox roller (7), from which the adhesive is taken up by a second rubber-clad roller (8), which transfers it to a film to be bonded. Each roller rotates at a higher speed than the preceding to one, and the unit is fitted with means (18) that regulate the distance between the rollers, and consequently the pressure that each rubber-clad roller (6, 8) exerts on the anilox roller (7), in order to meter the precise quantity of adhesive taken up and spread on the film. This characteristic allows even special adhesives, whose application is particularly difficult due to their viscosity characteristics, to be precisely spread and metered. I \O

Title: Compact pulverized coal burner
Inventor: DEGENKOLB DIETMAR

Granted: 2013-06-20
Abstract: COMPACT PULVERIZED COAL BURNER Abstract In the inventive burner for oxidant gasification of pulverized fuels under high pressures of e.g. 80 bar (8 MPa) and temperatures of e.g. 1200 to 1900 *C in reactors with liquid slag removal for oxygen gasification, the individual pulverized coal supply tubes (4) in the burner are embodied such that they are inclined toward the burner axis in the direction of 5 the burner mouth, are implemented equiareally from the burner inlet up to the burner outlet, and end at the burner mouth adjacent to the oxidant outlet. Owing to the pulverized fuel feeding elements being implemented right up to the burner mouth and the instantaneous entry of the pulverized coal into the rotating oxygen stream there is no longer any areal discontinuity at the dust outlet, since here the pulverized coal stream is 10 immediately sucked into the oxidant stream. At the outlet of the media the individual pulverized coal streams merge into a single rotating pulverized coal/oxygen stream, thereby achieving an even flame spread and stabilization. Fig I

Title: Method of making a metal bellows assembly having an intermediate plate
Inventor: MARGAIRAZ PHILIPPE
IPC: A61M5/142
Filed: 2009-10-14
Granted: 2014-02-20
Abstract: - 27 Abstract The formation of a bellows made up of a stack of a predetermined number of ring 5 convolutions and having an intermediate plate supported within said stack is achieved by supplying several thin metal rings, each having inner and outer edges. A pair of these metal rings are positioned in contiguous relationship and their adjacent inside edges are welded together to form a ring-convolution. This process is repeated until a sufficient number of ring-convolutions are made to eventually make 10 the desired bellows. Before these separate ring-convolutions are fused to each other, an intermediate plate and a support ring are made. The intermediate plate is a disc of metal that is sized smaller than the inside diameter of the rings and is secured to the support ring. The support ring is then positioned between two formed ring convolutions in contiguous relationship and the three abutting outside edges are 15 welded to each other to form a support plate convolution. The already made ring convolutions and the support plate convolution are then stacked in the desired order and in contiguous relationship. All not-yet welded adjacent outside edges of said ring-convolutions and said support plate convolution are then welded to form the bellows. A bottom plate is formed and welded to the outside edge of the bottommost 20 ring-convolution and a top ring is finally welded to the uppermost convolution to complete the bellows. The top ring is meant to be welded to a base plate of an infusion pump. 14/10/09.va 18305 speci.doc.27
