| 20100003368 | PROBIOTIC SUPPLEMENT, PROCESS FOR MAKING, AND PACKAGING - A pet food composition comprising a supplement is provided. The supplement can comprise a Probiotic component, a cocoa butter component, and a sweetener component. A process for making the supplement can comprise providing a sweetener component, a cocoa butter component, and a Probiotic component, mixing the cocoa butter component and Probiotic component to form a mixture in a temperature and humidity controlled chamber; mixing the mixture with the sweetener component in the temperature and humidity controlled chamber to form a final mixture; optionally mixing in a colorant with the final mixture; and cooling the final mixture. A package for the supplement can comprise a secondary container housing a primary container, which houses a supplement. An array of packages is also provided. | 01-07-2010 |
| 20100203225 | Supplement, Process for Making, and Packaging - A pet food composition comprising a supplement. The supplement can include a glucose mimetic component. The supplement can include a glucose mimetic component that is a glucose anti-metabolite. The glucose anti-metabolite can be 2-deoxy-D-glucose, 5-thio-D-glucose, 3-O-methylglucose, anhydrosugars including 1,5-anhydro-D-glucitol, 2,5-anhydro-D-glucitol, 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol, mannoheptulose, and/or avocado extract comprising mannoheptulose. | 08-12-2010 |
| 20100294739 | Multi Compartment Container Cap - A multi-compartment container cap comprising a hollow tubular body having a dividing wall forming a proximal compartment located at a proximal end of the hollow tubular body and a distal compartment located at the distal end of the hollow tubular body. The proximal end of the hollow tubular body is adapted to be releasably attached to a container body while the distal compartment comprises a separate compartment for the storage and dispensing of a composition which can be selected to be complementary to any composition store within the container cap. | 11-25-2010 |
| 20110150368 | Bag and Article of Manufacture - An article of manufacture including a bag made of a multi-layer laminate. The bag can have a front surface, a rear surface, two side surfaces, a bottom surface, and a top surface; the bag having a height, a width, and a depth, and an internal volume. The bag can be sealable and have a seal strength of at least about 1,600 pounds per square inch. The multi-layer laminate can have a thickness of from about 130 to about 200 microns. The plastic laminate can include an inner layer and an outer layer, wherein the outer layer can include a nylon and the inner layer can include a polyethylene. The plastic laminate can have a dart drop resistant of at least about 5 grams/mil and a tear resistance of at least about 6 grams/mil and 9 grams/mil in the machine direction and cross direction, respectively. | 06-23-2011 |

| 20110046813 | STEER CORRECTION FOR A REMOTELY OPERATED MATERIALS HANDLING VEHICLE - A materials handling vehicle automatically applies a steer correction maneuver if an object is detected in a steer bumper zone in front of the vehicle. A controller detects whether an object is in front of the materials handling vehicle and automatically determines whether a steer correction maneuver should be to the right or left of the traveling direction of the materials handling vehicle. The materials handling vehicle automatically steer corrects the vehicle, e.g., at a determined steer angle that is opposite the direction to the detected position of the object, and accumulates the distance traveled by vehicle while steer correction is being performed. The vehicle then automatically counter steers the vehicle, e.g., by a determined steer amount, in the opposite direction as the steer correction for a percentage of accumulated steer distance traveled. After performing the counter steer maneuver, the vehicle may, for example, resume a substantially straight heading. | 02-24-2011 |
| 20110118903 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF REMOTELY CONTROLLING A MATERIALS HANDLING VEHICLE - A supplemental control system for a materials handling vehicle comprises a wearable control device, and a corresponding receiver on the materials handling vehicle. The wearable control device is donned by an operator interacting with the materials handling vehicle, and comprises a wireless transmitter to be worn on the wrist of the operator and a travel control communicably coupled to the wireless transmitter. Actuation of the travel control causes the wireless transmitter to transmit a first type signal designating a request to the vehicle. The receiver is supported by the vehicle for receiving transmissions from the wireless transmitter. | 05-19-2011 |
| 20110166721 | OBJECT TRACKING AND STEER MANEUVERS FOR MATERIALS HANDLING VEHICLES - A materials handling vehicle automatically implements steer maneuvers when objects enter one or more zones proximate the vehicle, wherein the zones are monitored by a controller associated with the vehicle. The controller tracks objects in the zones via sensor data obtained from at least one obstacle sensor located on the vehicle and via dead reckoning. The objects are tracked by the controller until they are no longer in an environment proximate the vehicle. Different zones result in different steer maneuvers being implemented by the controller. | 07-07-2011 |
