20150097048 | Aerosol Generation for Stable, Low-Concentration Delivery - A feed aerosol comprising detectable particles is injected into a mix-enhancing swirler. Diluting gas is also injected into the mix-enhancing swirler and mixed with the feed aerosol in a swirling motion to form an aerosol with a particle concentration no greater than 1,000 particles per liter. The aerosol is then injected into a mixing chamber, where the aerosol is mixed and dried; the inner diameter of the mixing chamber is at least twice as great as that of the swirl chamber. The aerosol is then emitted through a flow straightener that removes swirl from the flow of the aerosol and passed through a delivery conduit, where the particles are detected and counted; and the particle count is compared with a target count. The respective flows of feed aerosol and diluting gas can then be increased or decreased based on a comparison of the particle count with the target count. | 04-09-2015 |

20100146770 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A BARBED SURGICAL SUTURE - A barbed surgical suture is configured to grip the tissue through which it is inserted. The suture has a generally flat and elongated suture body with a multiplicity of barbs located along one or both of the lateral edges. The barbs are of sufficient size and appropriate geometry for fastening the tissue and achieving closure of an incision or wound without the need for tying knots in the suture. The barbed surgical suture may be configured as a single-ended suture with all of the barbs aligned to allow the suture to move through tissue in one direction only. Alternately, it may be configured as a double-ended suture with the barbs on a first end portion aligned to allow the suture to move through tissue in a one direction and the barbs on a second end portion aligned to allow the suture to move through tissue in the opposite direction. The suture needles may be permanently attached or removably attached to the barbed surgical suture or, alternatively, the suture needle may be integrally formed with the barbed surgical suture. Methods are described for manufacturing the barbed surgical suture by stamping, cutting or progressive die cutting the suture out of flat material, or by chemically etching the suture out of flat material and or by injection molding. Optionally, specialized coatings may be added to enhance the performance of the barbed surgical suture. | 06-17-2010 |

The tool comprises a plate assembly for insertion between the highest pile from the piles of objects and the next separator sheet. The plate assembly has a fixed portion and a tip provided at a distal end thereof and is movable between a detecting position, wherein an upward displacement of the tip is allowed relative to the fixed portion, and a depalletizing position, wherein the tip is immobilized relative to the fixed portion. The tool further comprises a plate sensor for detecting the displacement of the tip relative to the fixed portion and for generating a first detection signal responsive to said displacement, and a pressure assembly that defines a gripper with the plate assembly for receiving the highest pile of objects and for selectively applying pressure thereon. When the plate assembly is in the detecting position, the controller detects one of the separated sheets when the tip is displaced upwardly relative to the fixed portion following a downward movement of the tool. | 01-17-2013 |

20150203304 | Vision-Assisted Robotized Depalletizer - A vision-assisted robotized depalletizer receives at a pallet station a pallet loaded with products and outputs on a conveyor unitized products aligned in a desired orientation. Such depalletizers include a vision system having one or more image acquisition sensors that are positioned relative to the pallet station so as to have a field of view covering a top portion of the pallet. The sensors send to a controller one or more image of the top portion of the pallet that the controller uses along to determine the position of each product in the top portion of the pallet. The depalletizer further includes a robot equipped with a depalletizing tool that is coupled to the vision system controller for receiving information indicative of the position of each product from the top portion and uses that information to pick and position on the output conveyor each product from the top portion. | 07-23-2015 |
20150210483 | Product Orientor - Embodiments of a product orientor include a turner conveyor that defines conveying plan and direction for a product received thereon and that has an initial orientation relative to the conveying direction. The initial orientation is determined by a vision system that is positioned upstream from the turner conveyor. The turner conveyor is rotatable about an axis that is perpendicular to the conveying plan between a conveying orientation, wherein the product is in the initial orientation, and a rectifying orientation, wherein the product is in a predetermined orientation relative to the conveying orientation. The product orientor further includes pressure plates that are movable between a retracted configuration and a holding configuration wherein the product is maintained in the predetermined orientation while the turner conveyor is moved from the rectifying orientation to the initial conveying orientation. | 07-30-2015 |
20150290805 | Vision-Assisted System and Method for Picking of Rubber Bales in a Bin - The problem of picking tightly-pack generally uniformed products such as rubber bales in a bin is solved by sequentially selecting each one of the products based on the products depths in the bin, using a robot with a tool to grip each selected product, and moving on an output station each gripped product considering its position relative to the gripping tool. A first sensor system is used to determine the product depths in the bin. The sensor system can be mounted on the robot tool or be positioned above the bin. The position of each gripped product in the gripping tool is achieved by analyzing an image of the gripped product in the gripping tool. | 10-15-2015 |
20150314455 | Method and Tool for Palletizing Mixed Load Products - The problem of the lag time in picking and dropping mixed load products during a palletization process is solved by using a tool having i) a gripping member that can be partially closed in a first fast movement while it is moved by a robot towards a product and then closed onto the product in a second shorter movement and ii) a product abutting plate that is movable in unison with the tool in opposite direction thereof as the tool is moved by a robot towards and away the mixed load pallet. | 11-05-2015 |
20150336754 | TOOL AND METHOD FOR LAYER DEPALLETIZING - The problem of potentially damaging a pallet layer that is gripped by clamps of a depalletizing tool is solved i) by detecting the real position of the layer using a pad on the tool that is movable with the clamps towards the pallet layer and whose detected stopping position determines the real position of the layer, and ii) while the layer is gripped by the clamp, by inserting under the layer curtains; the pressure on the layer by the clamps being adapted to the ease to go underneath the layer. | 11-26-2015 |
