| 20120118704 | Automated packing system - An automated packing system includes a first conveyor conveying goods to a location where the goods are dropped off a belt. A second conveyor is provided beneath the end of the first conveyor so that the goods fall into a box at the area where the second conveyor is located under the end of the first conveyor. Means are provided on the second conveyor to sense the presence of a box aligned under the end of the first conveyor, whereupon an escapement cylinder is activated to retain the box in that position. A controller counts the number of goods placed into the box and when the number is the number that fills the box, the controller releases the escapement cylinder allowing the box to move away from its position under the force of gravity and subsequently the next empty box moves into position under the end of the first conveyor. When the next box arrives at the desired location under the end of the first conveyor, a sensor senses that location and reactivates the escapement cylinder. A sensor senses the presence of goods being conveyed on the first conveyor and also includes a stop cylinder. The sensor enables the controller to count the number of goods that have passed by the sensor and this enables the controller to know when the number of goods that fill a box has passed by. | 05-17-2012 |

| 20090029585 | Rotatably Locking Plug and Connector - An apparatus for coupling an electrical connector to a cable is provided. The apparatus includes an electrical connector having at least one tab extending radially out from the electrical connector and a housing rotatably coupled to the electrical connector. The housing includes at least one first channel disposed along an interior of the housing, wherein the at least one tab is configured to slidably engage the first channel. The housing also includes a spacer applying a first force in a first direction to the electrical connector. The housing also includes at least one tab retention member disposed along the interior of the housing, wherein the tab retention member is annularly disposed from the first channel and prevents the electrical connector from traveling beyond a predetermined distance in the first direction. | 01-29-2009 |

| 20110214801 | TIRE TREAD BUFFING APPARATUS AND METHOD - A system and method for removing an outer layer of resilient material from an object to achieve a target outer dimension includes performing an initial cut at a cutting depth to remove an outer layer of the material. A parameter indicative of a work input to a cutter that performed the cut is acquired and used to determine the cutting depth that will be used for performing a subsequent cut to remove an additional layer. In this way, subsequent cuts are performed until the target outer dimension is achieved. | 09-08-2011 |

| 20090308105 | Mask and method for sealing a glass envelope - A mask for laser sealing a temperature and environmentally sensitive element, such as an OLED device, surrounded by a frit wall between first and second substrates. The mask is opaque and has a transparent elongate transmission region. The width of the transmission region may be substantially equal to the width of the frit wall. A strip of opaque mask material extends approximately along a longitudinal center line of the elongate transmission region. The mask is located between a laser and the first or second substrate. The laser emits a generally circular beam having a diameter that is larger than the width of the frit wall and is directed through the transmission region in the mask, such that opaque portions of the mask block portions the laser beam and the transparent transmission region allows a portion of the laser beam to pass through the mask and impinge upon the frit wall to melt the frit wall, thereby joining the first and second substrates and hermetically sealing the element therebetween. A process and system for sealing such an element between a first substrate and a second substrate separated by at least one frit wall employing such mask. | 12-17-2009 |
| 20100130091 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SEALING A PHOTONIC ASSEMBLY - A method of sealing a photonic assembly comprising several substrate plates and a sealing material disposed therebetween using a frame that may be positioned over and about a perimeter of the assembly. The frame and the assembly form a free space region between the frame and the assembly. A vacuum is applied to the free space region, for example through a passage formed in the frame, thereby causing a force to be applied against the frame and the assembly, via ambient atmospheric pressure, that facilitates the formation of a seal between the substrates when the sealing material is cured. An apparatus for performing the method is also disclosed. | 05-27-2010 |
