Abstract: A simulation system for simulating a human activity. The simulation system includes a simulator (10, 120) including a support (12, 122) mountable to the torso of the body and an actuator assembly (14, 124, 126) which includes a storage device (18) having a model of the human activity stored therein. The actuator assembly (14, 124, 126) is positioned to engage the body and formed to produce motion of the body in simulation of the modeled activity. The simulation system also includes the method of simulating a human activity which includes the steps of supporting the body and driving an actuator assembly (14, 124, 126) to simulate the human activity using a model of the activity which is stored in a storage device (18) coupled to the actuator assembly (14, 124, 126).

Abstract: A machine and method for handling a plurality of articles, and a feed apparatus for transporting the article between a first station and a second station. The machine generally includes a conveyor which supplies a stream articles to an infeed station and a feed apparatus for indexing the articles. The feed apparatus includes at least one pocket shaped to at least partially receive one of the articles for transport the article from the first station to the second station and a guide section configured to separate the first one of the articles from the second one of the articles for movement of the first one of the articles into the pocket, to control movement of the second one of the articles during separation of the first one of the articles from the second one of the articles, and to move the second one of the articles into the pocket upon further rotation of the feed apparatus.

Abstract: A tamper-evident, snap-on, screw-off closure is used with a specially shaped container neck. The neck has at least one first helical thread on an upper neck stretch portion, and a first tamper-evident structure having a first locking member. The closure has an upper skirt having at least one second helical thread mating with the first helical thread of the neck. The closure includes a second tamper-evident structure having a second locking member shaped and positioned to engage the first locking member when the closure is applied to the neck.

Abstract: A wheel retaining device for retaining a plurality of replacement wheels. The wheel retaining device includes an elongate body dimensioned for insertion through apertures formed in the wheels and retainers positioned proximate opposite ends of the elongate body for retaining the wheels on the elongate body. The wheel retaining device includes a locking mechanism for securing the wheels on the elongate body.

The closure includes a second tamper-evident structure having a second locking member shaped and positioned to engage the first locking member when the closure is applied to the neck.

Abstract: A tamper-evident, snap-on, screw-off closure which is used with a specially shaped container neck is provided with a foil liner. Once the closure is applied to the neck, the foil liner is sealed to the neck of the container. The foil liner includes a tab for removal of the seal disc from the neck. The closure is characterized by the absence of a second liner between the top of the cap and the foil liner. The cap and the foil liner are formed to inhibit adherence of the tab to the interior of the cap.
