| 20100139881 | APPARATUS WITH AN IMPERMEABLE TRANSFER BELT IN A PAPERMAKING MACHINE, AND ASSOCIATED METHODS - An apparatus for transferring a wet paper web from a press nip to a drying cylinder ( | 06-10-2010 |
| 20100326616 | Papermaking Machine Employing An Impermeable Transfer Belt, and Associated Methods - A papermaking machine for making paper includes a forming section, a press section, and a drying section. The paper web is pressed between two press members while enclosed between a press felt and a transfer belt having non-uniformly distributed microscopic depressions in its surface, the web following the transfer belt from the press to a transfer point at which the web is transferred via a suction transfer device onto a structuring fabric, the web then being dried on a drying cylinder. The transfer point is spaced a distance D from the press nip selected based on machine speed, a basis weight of the web, and the surface characteristics of the transfer belt, such that within the distance D a thin water film between the web and the transfer belt at least partially dissipates to allow the web to be separated from the transfer belt. | 12-30-2010 |

| 20090151707 | TANK ASSEMBLY AND COMPONENTS - A tank assembly and fuel system for an engine having an engine intake. The fuel system may comprise a tank housing defining an interior and an exterior and an opening between the interior and the exterior, a liquid being containable in the interior, vapor being produceable from the liquid, a closure housing connectable to the tank housing to selectively close the opening, a vapor path from the tank interior to the engine intake, and adsorption media for trapping harmful components in the vapor, the adsorption media being supported in the vapor path and being positioned in the vapor path between the tank interior and the engine intake. | 06-18-2009 |
| 20110253237 | PRIMER BULB - A pump includes a substantially tubular housing having an inlet end and an outlet end and defining a central axis and a chamber within the body portion, and a movable valve assembly slidably received within the housing for movement in the direction of the central axis. The pump also includes a handle assembly slidably disposed at least partially around an outer circumference of the housing for movement in the direction of the central axis, the handle assembly being substantially annular ring-shaped, and the handle assembly including a grip engageable by a hand of an operator for manually sliding the handle assembly, the handle assembly being coupled to the movable valve assembly, manual movement of the handle assembly along the central axis causing corresponding movement on the movable valve assembly along the central axis. | 10-20-2011 |
| 20110277307 | MODULAR RATCHET CAP - A method of assembling selected modular ratchet cap assemblies. In one aspect, the method includes the acts of providing identical threaded portions, providing identical cover portions, providing a first vent module, providing a second vent module different from the first vent module, selecting the first vent module and coupling together the first vent module with one of the identical threaded portions and one of the identical cover portions to form a first cap assembly, and selecting the second vent module and coupling together the second vent module with another one of the identical threaded portions and another one of the identical cover portions to form a second cap assembly. In other aspects, the method includes assembling first and second cap assemblies with identical cover portions and threaded portions, but having different pawl members providing different cap-installing torque limits. In other aspects, the method includes providing first and second cap assemblies with similar components, but having covers or portions thereof provided with different individualized characteristics for different applications. | 11-17-2011 |

| 20080293571 | Insecticide organic fertilizer composition, process and method - An insecticide organic fertilizer composition eradicates insects such as imported fire ants (IFA). The insecticide organic fertilizer composition comprises an aqueous homogenized manure extract having an active ingredient, a surfactant, a solvent, and a fatty acid. Active ingredients include botanical insecticides which are subject to degradation after a preselected period of time upon delivery to a soil area. The botanical insecticide is selected from the group consisting of rotenone, pyrethrum, sabadilla (varatrine), neem (azadirachtin), ryania (ryanodine), and mixtures thereof, with rotenone being the preferable botanical insecticide selected. Advantageously, the combination of these components and component amounts renders the botanical insecticide's active ingredients, including rotenone, stable in the aqueous organic manure extract for a predetermined period of time. During this predetermined period of time, the insecticide organic fertilizer composition biologically interferes with IFA's pheromone distress signals. Upon application of the insecticide organic fertilizer composition to an IFA mound, the IFAs began to exhibit a state of sluggishness and gradually begin to die over time rather than relocating, effectuating effective eradication after treatment. In addition, the biotanical insecticide functions to fertilize and nourish soil near the vicinity of the mound. | 11-27-2008 |
