| 20110117231 | FIBER PLACEMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD WITH INLINE INFUSION AND COOLING - A fiber placement system comprises a resin impregnation assembly for applying a resin to one or more fiber tows and for infusing the fiber tows with the resin to form one or more inline resin-infused fiber tows. The fiber placement system further includes a fiber placement head comprising at least one cooler configured to receive and cool the in-line resin-infused fiber tows from the resin impregnation assembly. The fiber placement head further includes at least one cutter assembly configured to receive and cut the cooled resin-infused fiber tows and a compaction assembly configured to receive and compact the cut fiber tows onto a tool. A fiber placement method is also provided. | 05-19-2011 |
| 20110126563 | ABSORPTION CHILLER AND SYSTEM INCORPORATING THE SAME - A device, such as an absorption chiller sub-system, is provided. The absorption chiller sub-system can include an evaporator and an absorber. The evaporator can be configured to receive a liquid first working fluid and to produce first working fluid vapor. The absorber can be configured to receive and combine first working fluid vapor and a second working fluid, for example, so as to release thermal energy. A divider having opposing first and second sides in respective fluid communication with the evaporator and the absorber can also be included. The divider can be configured to allow first working fluid vapor to pass therethrough between the first and second sides and to inhibit movement of liquid first working fluid therethrough between the first and second sides. Associated systems and methods are also provided. | 06-02-2011 |

| 20100325957 | GASIFICATION SYSTEM FLOW DAMPING - In one embodiment, a gasification system component, such as a quench unit or scrubber may retain of pool of a cooling fluid for cooling another fluid. The gasification system component includes a flow damping mechanism designed to dampen flow of the cooling fluid, the other fluid, or both, within the gasification system component. The flow damping mechanism may be disposed in an inner chamber formed between a dip tube and a draft tube or disposed in an outer chamber formed between the walls of the gasification system component and the draft tube. The flow damping mechanism also may be disposed between the inner chamber and the outer chamber. | 12-30-2010 |

| 20100325954 | QUENCH CHAMBER ASSEMBLY FOR A GASIFIER - A gasifier includes a combustion chamber in which a combustible fuel is burned to produce a syngas and a particulated solid residue. A quench chamber having a liquid coolant is disposed downstream of the combustion chamber. A dip tube is disposed coupling the combustion chamber to the quench chamber. The syngas is directed from the combustion chamber to the quench chamber via the dip tube to contact the liquid coolant and produce a cooled syngas. A draft tube is disposed surrounding the dip tube such that an annular passage is formed between the draft tube and the dip tube. An asymmetric or symmetric baffle is disposed proximate to an exit path of the quench chamber. The cooled syngas is directed through the annular passage and impacted against the asymmetric or symmetric baffle so as to remove entrained liquid content from the cooled syngas before the cooled syngas is directed through the exit path. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20110067304 | GASIFICATION QUENCH CHAMBER BAFFLE - A gasification quench chamber baffle is disclosed. An embodiment of the baffle includes a ring that has a predominantly vertical longitudinal axis; several pipes are attached to the ring, where each pipe has an upper end and a lower end. The lower ends of the pipes extend downwards towards a sump in a gasification quench chamber. Additionally, there are gussets that are configured to guide water towards the upper ends of the pipes. A quench chamber that used the baffle is also disclosed. | 03-24-2011 |
| 20110120009 | GASIFICATION QUENCH CHAMBER DIP TUBE - A gasification quench chamber dip tube component is disclosed. The dip tube includes an elongate hollow element that has a first intake end and a second discharge end that is located distally opposite the intake end. The second discharge end includes either a plurality of elongate openings that are displaced circumferentially around the hollow element or a plurality of elongate elements displaced circumferentially around the hollow element thereby defining a plurality of elongate spaces therebetween that extend axially from the second discharge end. A quench chamber that employs the dip tube is also disclosed. | 05-26-2011 |
| 20110120010 | GASIFICATION QUENCH CHAMBER AND SCRUBBER ASSEMBLY - A gasification quench chamber is disclosed. The gasification quench chamber includes a reservoir that contains liquid coolant in its lower portion and an exit for the cooled syngas in its upper portion; a dip tube that is configured to introduce a syngas mixture to contact the liquid coolant which produces the cooled syngas; a cooling device configured to further cool the cooled syngas in its upper portion; and a stability device in the lower portion that is configured to mitigate coolant level fluctuation and sloshing. In an embodiment of the quench chamber, the cooling device includes a heat exchanger pipe. A quench chamber and scrubber assembly is also disclosed. | 05-26-2011 |

| 20100263510 | APPARATUS FOR CUTTING FOOD PRODUCT - Method and apparatus for reducing food products. The apparatus includes a casing, an impeller adapted for rotation within the casing, and a cutting device. The casing has axial and circumferential openings for product entering and exiting, respectively, the casing. The impeller includes a drum, paddles mounted to the drum, and pockets defined by and between adjacent pairs of paddles that are radially aligned with the circumferential opening of the casing as each pocket travels past the circumferential opening. The cutting device includes a knife disposed at the circumferential opening of the casing and oriented perpendicular to the axis of the impeller. The knife lies on a sector of the casing and has a cutting edge located within an interior of the casing so that the knife extends into the path of the paddles and passes through relief slots defined in the paddles as the impeller rotates. | 10-21-2010 |
