20120160843 | DUAL VESSEL CHEMICAL MODIFICATION AND HEATING OF WOOD WITH OPTIONAL VAPOR CONTAINMENT - A commercial scale system and process for chemically modifying wood and then heating the chemically-modified wood. The system/process separates the chemical modification step from the heating step by utilizing two different vessels for the modification and heating steps. The system and process can, in certain situations, include a containment room for preventing escape of vapors from a chemical wood modification reactor, a wood heater, and/or a chemically-modified bundle of wood as the bundle is transported from the wood modification reactor to the wood heater. | 06-28-2012 |

20150202774 | TOUCH AUTO-CALIBRATION OF PROCESS MODULES - Methods and systems for the touch auto-calibration for robot placement of substrate in process modules are provided. Touch auto-calibration allows for the automatic calibration of robot end effector positioning with respect to an aligning base in a process module. Touch auto-calibration also allows for calibration of process modules at temperatures and pressures similar to the temperatures and pressures experienced during production. The end effector has one or more aligning surfaces configured to align it with the aligning base upon contact with the aligning base. After contact, the position of the end effector and the calibrated position of the end effector during a pick or place move can then be determined. In some implementations, the positioning of the end effector as it transfers a substrate during production is based on a placement coordinate with the placement correction applied. | 07-23-2015 |

20100270449 | MODULAR CASKET HARDWARE - Modular casket hardware which includes a bracket configured to attach to a casket corner wall surface. The bracket is also configured to be oriented with respect to the casket in a first orientation to attach to the casket wall and a second orientation to attach to the casket corner. A bore in the bracket is configured to receive a casket bar when in the first orientation. Tabs on the bracket are configured to at least partially fit within a portion of the casket bar when the bracket is oriented in the second orientation. A bracket cover could also use other bracket type mechanisms to attach and hold the casket bars to the casket which will support the required weight of a casket at the grave site. Once a bracket and bars are attached, the casket will be able to be shipped without the decorative bracket cover installed. The decorative modular casket bracket cover will be able to be added to the casket at any time. | 10-28-2010 |

20150308341 | COMPRESSOR INJECTOR APPARATUS AND SYSTEM - Cooling systems for high pressure compressor systems are provided. The cooling systems may comprise tangential on board injectors (“TOBIs”). The TOBIs may comprise one or more fluid channels configured to conduct cooling fluid flow to components of the compressor, including, for example, disk-hub portions of the compressor. In this regard, the TOBI may be configured to exhaust cooling air in a manner such that the exhausted air has a similar linear velocity of the disk-hub portion. The cooling air may also be exhausted in a manner that is substantially parallel to the disk-hub portion. | 10-29-2015 |

20160076378 | TURBOMACHINE ROTORS WITH THERMAL REGULATION - A rotor disk for a turbomachine includes a disk body, a rim configured to connect to or include a rotor blade disposed on a radially outward portion of the disk body, a bore defined in a radially inward portion of the disk body and configured to be radially adjacent to a shaft, and a thermal regulation aperture defined in the disk body, radially inward of the rim, for allowing flow to pass axially through the disk body when disposed in a stage of a turbomachine, and a thermal regulation aperture defined in the disk body for allowing flow to pass through the disk body when disposed in a stage of a turbomachine. | 03-17-2016 |
20160076379 | TURBOMACHINE ROTOR THERMAL REGULATION SYSTEMS - A turbomachine includes an aft stage including a rotor disk having a rotor disk bore hole and a rotor disk rim, and a valve disposed within the turbomachine and in fluid communication with the rotor disk bore hole. The valve is in selective fluid communication with a first pressure source such that, in an first position, the valve allows fluid to flow from the first pressure source through the rotor disk bore hole and radially outward along the aft rotor disk toward the aft rotor disk rim. | 03-17-2016 |
