20100018220APPARATUS FOR HEATING OR COOLING AND MONITORING CONSUMPTION OF A BEVERAGE - An apparatus selectively heats or cools a beverage in a beverage container and indicates an amount of beverage in the beverage container. The apparatus comprises a portable housing having a door opening into a thermal chamber that is well suited for heating or cooling a 16-ounce (370 milliliter) beverage container. A control module controls a thermoelectric cooler to alternatively heat or cool the beverage. A scale weighs the beverage container and beverage and outputs a value related to a weight of beverage in the container. A display module optionally displays time and weight data related to beverage consumption. The thermoelectric cooler may optionally be controlled to reduce audible noise or to reduce energy consumption. A flexible arm and tubing clip hold a drinking straw in a convenient position for drinking. Power for the apparatus may optionally by supplied by an AC-to-DC converter with a 12 VDC output or from a 12-volt battery.01-28-2010

20090068336LOW SHEAR MEAT ANALOG - Methods for producing meat analog as well as formulations are disclosed. The novel production method uses a device designed to texturize the product while providing superior heat transfer for cooking. The device includes a helical compression conveyer with internal and external heating sources that delivers a high ratio of surface area for heat transfer to product volume. This results in the device being capable of heating of the emulsion volume as it is moved from the inlet to the outlet of the device to form a meat analog within the device in which the meat analog is formed in multiple segments to result in the meat analog having a defined surface texture.03-12-2009
20100003393EDIBLE PET CHEW AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME - An edible pet chew is disclosed that is comprised of fibrous protein, water absorbing polymer, plasticizer and water. The pet chew provides excellent textural properties and improved solubility in the stomach and intestinal environment for improved pet safety.01-07-2010
