20090026427 | CRIBBING APPARATUS - A cribbing apparatus for stabilizing a post-accident vehicle against unwanted movement of the vehicle during a rescue operation in which a victim trapped in the vehicle is to be extricated from the vehicle including a cribbing block having a two cribbing block portions, one of which is vertically movable with respect to the second in order to fill a space between the vehicle and the ground. The cribbing block includes a stair-stepped upper surface to facilitate the placement of the cribbing beneath vehicles of various ground clearances. The first cribbing block portion is raised to further fill space between the vehicle and the ground on high clearance vehicles, such as SUVs, Trucks and Buses. The structure and operation of the cribbing apparatus eliminates the need to forcefully jam cribbing into place between the vehicle and the ground and eliminates the need to stack cribbing. | 01-29-2009 |

20130201237 | MULTIPLE PRINT HEAD PRINTING APPARATUS AND METHOD OF OPERATION - A printing apparatus has a series of inkjet print heads spaced from one another in a transport direction. A continuous belt driven around a roller system is used to feed sheet media successively to the print heads so that a partial image printed by one print head is overprinted at a subsequent print head with registration of the partial images. A sheet medium is caused to become electrostatically tacked to the belt by passing the sheet past a charging device. Movement of the belt is tracked by a tracking sub-system and operation of the print heads is coordinated with the tracked belt movement to achieve precise registration of the partial images. | 08-08-2013 |
20130293640 | INK DELIVERY SYSTEM FOR INKJET PRINTHEADS - An ink delivery system for an inkjet printer has an ink supply tank and a pair of printheads located at different heights. A primary ink delivery circuit delivers ink to a pair of intermediate tanks, each tank maintained a precise distance below a respective one of the printheads. Ink is pumped to the higher tank to the level of a weir and overflowing ink flows under gravity to the lower tank. The overflowing ink fills the lower tank to the level of a weir and overflowing ink returns to the supply tank. Secondary ink delivery circuits have capillary lines for supply of ink from each of the intermediate tanks to the respective printhead. Ink is maintained in the supply lines ready for inkjet printing by establishing a negative pressure between each intermediate tank and the respective printhead. | 11-07-2013 |

In the first transport path, the medium is transported past a first inkjet printhead for printing onto a surface of the medium. In the second transport path, the medium is transported past a second inkjet printhead for printing onto one surface of the medium, then turned and transported past the first inkjet printhead for printing onto the other surface of the medium. | 11-06-2014 |
