Filed:

Feb 26, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/678876

Inventors:

Christopher R. Carlevato - Glen Ellyn IL, US
Daniel J. Carroll - Chicago IL, US

International Classification:

A63F 9/24

US Classification:

463 40

Abstract:

A fantasy simulation allows participants to challenge each other by comparing the performance of one participant's reality-based selection to another participant's reality-based selection. The simulation also allows participants to wager a limited or unlimited amount of simulated funds on the outcome of the challenge. Participants challenge other, individual participants or groups of participants while the simulation measures a reality-based metric associated with all challenge participants' reality-based selection over a period of time. At the conclusion of the period of time, a challenge winner is determined from the change of the metric.

Filed:

Oct 16, 1998

Appl. No.:

9/173790

Inventors:

Jesse L. Aparicio - Berwyn IL
Daniel J. Carroll - Hammond IN
Nhon T. Vuong - Lombard IL

Assignee:

Sloan Valve Company - Franklin Park IL

International Classification:

F16K 31145

US Classification:

25112903

Abstract:

A battery-powered, sensor-operated flush valve for controlling water flow through a toilet room device such as a urinal or water closet includes a flush valve body with an inlet and an outlet. There is a valve mechanism for controlling flow through the flush valve body. A solenoid is attached to the flush valve body and has a piston which is positioned to contact the valve mechanism relief valve. The solenoid is in circuit with a battery and a sensor whereby a user of toilet room device will cause battery power to be applied to the solenoid coil, which will in turn move the piston to contact the relief valve to institute a flushing operation.

Appl. No.:

8/937881

Inventors:

John R. Wilson - Naperville IL
Daniel J. Carroll - Hammond IN

Assignee:

Sloan Valve Company - Franklin Park IL

International Classification:

F16K 31143
F16K 4702

US Classification:

251 40

Abstract:

A flush valve includes a body with an inlet, an outlet, a valve seat at the outlet, and a piston movable in the body toward and away from the valve seat to control flow through the outlet. The piston has a chamber and there is a refill orifice in the piston connecting the chamber with the body inlet. Pressure in the chamber maintains the piston closed upon the valve seat. A relief valve in the piston vents the chamber to the outlet to permit the piston to move away from the valve seat to open flow from the inlet to the body outlet. The piston has a guide portion which extends downstream of the valve seat when the piston is in the closed position. The guide portion of the piston has a plurality of outwardly extending axial ribs, the outer surface of which is radially in alignment with the path of flow through said valve seat. The piston area between the ribs is closed by a skirt to confine the path of flow exteriorly of the piston portion to provide a defined flow path through the valve seat from the inlet to the outlet.

International Classification:

B41J 25/00

Abstract:

A print head assembly for a media processing device comprises: a print head including an interface and a latch receiver on an upper surface of the print head; and a print head carrier including: (i) a base plate having an opening to receive the latch receiver therethrough when the print head is positioned at a lower surface of the base plate; (ii) an adapter to engage with the interface of the print head; and (iii) a latch bar on an upper surface of the base plate, the latch bar slideable between a first position to engage with the latch receiver and lock the print head to the base plate, and a second position to disengage from the latch receiver and release the print head from the base plate.
