Filed:

Feb 23, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/792843

Inventors:

Michael Gustafson - San Diego CA
Paul McCarty - San Diego CA

Assignee:

Hewlett-Packard Company - Palo Alto CA

International Classification:

B65M 352

US Classification:

271 1001, 271 1009, 271121, 271109, 271113, 271145, 271162

Abstract:

A non-planar single sheet separator wall preferably inclined at about 25Â from the vertical away from a paper stack first engages the side corners of the leading edge of a sheet of paper or other media picked from the top of the generally horizontal or downwardly inclined stack by a roller or pusher and causes the corners of the sheet to first curl upwardly along the wall before the central portion of the leading edge of the sheet engages the central portion of the separator wall. The separator wall configuration substantially eliminates downward curling of one or both leading corners of a sheet which is purposely upwardly bowed by an elastomeric pad near the center of the separator wall to reduce multi-sheet picks and separator jams.

Appl. No.:

7/958372

Inventors:

Paul McCarty - San Diego CA
Jerry I. Tustaniwskyj - Mission Viejo CA
Jon L. Zimmerman - Escondido CA

Assignee:

Unisys Corporation - Blue Bell PA

International Classification:

H05K 720

US Classification:

361704

Abstract:

An electro-mechanical module comprises a packaged electrical part having a surface which dissipates heat, and a springy frame which overlies that surface. This frame includes a pair of fasteners for catching on the package at two predetermined locations, and the frame has an unstressed state in which the fasteners do not coincide with the two locations. However, the frame is springy enough to be stressed and thereby move the fasteners to the two locations, and thereafter return back towards the unstressed state and catch the fasteners on the package at the two locations. To complete the module, a heat sink rests on the surface and is removably attached to the frame.

A61L 31/02
C08K 3/34
C08K 3/22
A61B 1/045
A61L 31/06

Abstract:

The invention provides an endoscopic video camera having a polymeric knob assembly, wherein the polymeric material used for manufacturing the knob assembly includes polyphenylsulfone resin, titanium dioxide, tin oxide, and colored metallic additives, is capable of withstanding sterilization, and has a metallic cosmetic appearance. The invention also provides methods of manufacturing the knob assembly by plastic injection molding processes, wherein undesirable molding characteristics are concentrated on portions of the knob assembly that are removed by secondary machining or post machining.
