US Patent:

20070108016, May 17, 2007

Filed:

Nov 3, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/592722

Inventors:

Mark Eaton - West Linn OR, US
Larry Martin - Lake Oswego OR, US
Dennis White - Kalama WA, US

Assignee:

FMC Technologies, Inc. - Houston TX

International Classification:

B65G 47/10

US Classification:

198348000

Abstract:

A conveyor distribution system includes a first conveyor module for receiving work product to be distributed and having an elongated pan The outlet end of the first conveyor pan being in registry with and at an elevation above the proximal end of a conveyor pan of a second conveyor module to define a discharge gap between the two conveyor pans. The second conveyor operable to move the work product both downstream and upstream along the second conveyor pan thereby to discharge work product from either the distal or proximal ends of the second conveyor pan. A third or even additional conveyor modules may be employed for further distribution of the work product.

Filed:

Dec 9, 1986

Appl. No.:

6/939910

Inventors:

Larry Martin - Forest Grove OR

Assignee:

Old Trapper Smoked Products, Inc. - Forest Grove OR

International Classification:

A47F 314

US Classification:

211128

Abstract:

A display unit of welded wire or similar construction for display of food products packaged either in individual packages or displayed in jars open for removal of individual pieces. A pivoted cover is provided for a container in place on each of the shelves, with a horizontal cover flap pivot axis being vertically adjustable in position. The pivoted cover is permitted to swing only through a limited arc which results in the cover always being free to fall down atop an open jar or similar container and to interfere with placement of a jar on the shelf except beneath the cover flap.

Appl. No.:

15/130960

Inventors:

Micheal D. Stebbins - Scottsdale AZ, US

International Classification:

F24H 9/20
F24H 1/10
F24D 19/10
F24D 17/00

Abstract:

This invention relates primarily to an electric heater based tankless water heater, though some aspects may also apply to a natural gas or other fuel based tankless water heater. In particular aspects relating to “smart” communication and coordination of the tankless water heater with other devices, which may be electrically powered or powered by other fuels, may also apply to non-electric flow through fluid heating systems. The subject tankless water heater invention incorporates several aspects relating to energy and construction efficiency which will be detailed further. These include both physical aspects, such as coatings, tubing and heater element design, and electrical aspects, such as power control for individual heater elements, which can make the tankless water heater more compact and more efficient in operation, with reduced instantaneous and long term load on electrical supply systems.
