Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080236778Wire injection lance nozzle insert - A lance nozzle insert for a refractory lance for feeding an additive wire into a quantity of molten metal below the surface of the molten metal surface is made of a material comprising stabilized zirconium oxide and graphite substantially increasing the corrosion resistance of the lance nozzle insert.10-02-2008
20090047425Calcium Enriched Refractory Material by the Addition of Calcium Carbonate - The composition applied to the refractory structure has a magnesia-based refractory material, calcium carbonate and a binder. After application of the refractory material to a refractory structure and upon application of heat to the applied refractory material a matrix is formed which protects against penetration of the slag into the refractory material. The resulting refractory material has improved hot strength, slag resistance and durability.02-19-2009
20090057964Rotary lance - A process and apparatus for feeding an additive to a molten metal in a vessel to achieve a uniform dispersion of the additive are provided. In one example, the outlet of the lance is positioned below the surface of the molten metal. The lance is moved with a reciprocating motion, so that the outlet of the lance moves below the surface of the molten metal. The additive is dispensed through the outlet of the lance along a path traversed by the outlet in the molten metal while the lance reciprocates.03-05-2009
20090311553STRAND CLADDING OF CALCIUM WIRE - A cored reactive metal wire is formed by gathering at least three strands of continuously fed elongated reactive metal wires into a bundle and aligning the bundle of wires with a continuously fed sheet of metal sheath. The bundle of wires is then compacted into a generally cylindrical shape and clad with the sheet of metal sheath whereby the compacted bundle of reactive metal wires form a core of the cored wire in which the core has a substantially larger diameter than each of the strands of continuously fed elongated reactive metal wires.12-17-2009
20100189896CALCIUM ENRICHED REFRACTORY MATERIAL BY THE ADDITION OF CALCIUM CARBONATE - The composition applied to the refractory structure has a magnesia-based refractory material, calcia source and a binder. After application of the refractory material to a refractory structure and upon application of heat to the applied refractory material a matrix is formed which protects against penetration of the slag into the refractory material. The resulting refractory material has improved hot strength, slag resistance and durability.07-29-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110206808Non-dairy, non-soy whippable food product and method of making - A whippable food product and a method of making the same are disclosed. The finished product is packaged by an aseptic packaging process. It is shelf-stable (ingredients do not degrade or segregate during storage) at ambient temperatures for an extended period of time, and it whips stiff to form a uniform creamy topping in a short period of time. The product is free of dairy and animal products/by-products, thus suitable for vegan, kosher, or vegetarian consumption. Also, the product does not contain soy products and/or questionable ingredients such as processed oils or chemical additives, etc.08-25-2011
20110281011NON-DAIRY, NON-SOY WHIPPABLE FOOD PRODUCT WITH FRUIT JUICE AND METHOD OF MAKING - A whippable food product and a method of making the same are disclosed. The finished product is packaged by an aseptic packaging process. It is shelf-stable (ingredients do not degrade or segregate during storage) at ambient temperatures for an extended period of time, and it whips stiff to form a uniform creamy topping in a short period of time. The product is free of dairy and animal products/by-products, thus suitable for vegan, kosher, or vegetarian consumption. Also, the product does not contain soy products and/or questionable ingredients such as processed oils or chemical additives, etc. Fruit juice or another acidulant is added to the product for extending the whipping potential of the food product and adding fruit flavoring.11-17-2011

20080290170SCANNER SWITCHED TO ACTIVE STATE BY SENSED MOVEMENT IN QUIESCENT SCANNING MECHANISM - The disclosure generally relates to a method and apparatus for determining if an optical scanner is moving. In one embodiment the method for sensing movement of an optical scanner comprises the steps of providing an oscillating system comprising a flexible member, a magnet coupled to the flexible member, a coil disposed within a magnetically effective distance from the magnet, and sense circuitry coupled to the coil; generating a first electrical signal from the oscillations of the flexible member; amplifying the generated electrical signal; analyzing the first electrical signal to determine if the generated signal is indicative of movement of the optical scanner.11-27-2008

20120118974BARCODE READER WITH EDGE DETECTION ENHANCEMENT - An optical reader for decoding an encoded symbol character of a symbology includes a scan data signal processor having as an input a scan data signal encoding information representative of the encoded symbol character. The scan data signal processor includes a first time delay stage adapted to provide a primary phase waveform from the scan data signal, a second time delay stage adapted to provide an early phase waveform from the scan data signal, and a third time delay stage adapted to provide a delayed phase waveform from the scan data signal. The early phase waveform has a propagation delay less than the primary phase waveform, and the delayed phase waveform has a propagation delay greater than the primary phase waveform. The scan data signal processor further includes a peak window detection stage for generating a peak window timeframe when an amplitude of the primary phase waveform is greater than, less than, or equal to both an amplitude of the early phase waveform and the delayed phase waveform. The optical reader further includes a digitizer circuit adapted to accept, within the peak window timeframe, the scan data signal processor output.05-17-2012

20080217410METHOD FOR WAKING UP IN-COUNTER FIXED SCANNERS - A method of waking up an in-counter bar code scanner from its standby mode comprises providing a sensor assembly attached to a touch plate. The sensor assembly comprises an oscillating magnet member affixed at one end and a permanent magnet attached at an opposite free end at the end of a flexible member. When a user touches the touch plate, the impact force exerted on the touch plate is transmitted to the oscillating magnet member causing the magnet to oscillate inducing an electrical signal in a pick-up coil provided near the magnet and wakes up the bar code scanner.09-11-2008
