Abstract: A grease containment apparatus to remove grease and other contaminants from hot air exiting a kitchen area through a vent system which includes a vertical separator.

Abstract: A flow measurement cartridge assembly for measuring liquid flow in a partially filled channel and a method for measuring liquid flow using the cartridge assembly, the cartridge assembly comprising: a frame for insertion into a discharge opening of the channel; a level detector secured in the frame for determining a liquid level in the channel; and at least one flow measurement device secured in the frame.

Abstract: The present invention includes a mounting device for a computer drive that includes a flexible locking plate and one or more tabs for securing the drive. A contact point allows a portion of the locking plate to be reversibly flexed out of a plane that substantially corresponds to the plane of the flexible locking plate when not flexed is used to effect.

Abstract: A device retention mechanism suitable for mounting a device in a chassis includes a chassis suitable for receiving a device. The chassis has a first side and a second side, the first side oriented generally perpendicular to the second side. A retention member is mounted to the first side of the chassis to enable the retention member to exert a force against a device, thereby applying the force from the retention member to the device and to the second side of the chassis, thereby securing the device in the chassis.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an accent panel incorporated with an aperture in the panel that allows access to a support member attached to a bezel. A person's hand may fit within the aperture and grasp the support member to allow easy transport of the computer. The panel may be installed and removed easily without the need for tools. A user of a computer equipped with an accent panel of the present invention may be able to match the color of the front of his or her computer to his or her surroundings while still allowing access to a support member to allow easier transport of a computer.

Abstract: Apparatus for mounting a circuit board within the chassis of an electronic device are disclosed. The chassis of an electronic device includes a mounting panel assembly having at least one slot for receiving a standoff mounted to the circuit board. Each slot includes a first end suitable for allowing insertion and removal of the standoff through the slot and a second end suitable for engaging the standoff to retain the standoff in the slot for securing the circuit board to the mounting panel assembly. A ramp member extends beneath the slot adjacent to the first end for urging the standoff toward the second end when the standoff is inserted in the slot through the first end.

Abstract: A photoplotting apparatus is provided. The apparatus comprises an internal drum plotter and a media sheet handling apparatus for sequentially delivering a photosensitive media sheet to the photoplotter for exposure from a stack of such sheets. The photoplotter has reduced turbulence within the drum during exposure of the media sheet, and the sheet handling apparatus includes means for separating the sheets in the stack from interleaves disposed between adjacent sheets in the stack.

Abstract: An elastic binding devise consisting of a core of one or more latex rubber tubes covered with a woven jacket that can be elongated and contracted with the core.
