Patent number: 8714112Abstract: An aerodynamically interactive artifact is proportioned to experience at least one of tumbling, fluttering, and autorotating motion when subjected to free fall in a gravitational field. Suitable shapes include films, strips, butterflies, birds, and the like. The artifact may be contain a neutraceutical, may be dissolvable in pet saliva, and may provide an olfactory sensation for a pet. Dimensionless parameters such as Froude number and length-to-thickness ratios may be used to select aerodynamically interactive motions.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2012Date of Patent: May 6, 2014Assignee: Big Heart Pet BrandsInventors: Jay Kling, Tracy Grammer, Eric Lew, Donald Barnvos, Tracy Wojnarowski

Publication number: 20120062021Abstract: A wheel rim comprising a lip formed on the wheel rim, the lip running parallel to the circumference of the rim. A method of forming a lip on a wheel rim, the method comprising: forming fiber layers on an upper and lower portion of a mold; forming fiber layers on an upper and lower portion of a mold; curing the fiber layers; removing the cured rim from the upper and lower portions of the mold; in which the internal surface of the lower portion of the mold comprises an indention that, once the fiber layers are cured, creates a lip on the surface of the rim.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 15, 2011Publication date: March 15, 2012Applicant: REYNOLDS CYCLING LLCInventor: Paul Eric Lew

Publication number: 20120058227Abstract: A dog chew treat is fashioned from a composition comprising sugar, fiber, and flour. Preferably, the sugar is dextrose, and the flour is pre-gelatinized wheat flour. The composition may be molded into the shape of a bone, or other treat. A palatant coating may be applied to the molded product. Colors may be added for different aesthetics such as a marbling pattern. Functional ingredients may be used to provide health benefits.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 7, 2011Publication date: March 8, 2012Applicant: Del Monte CorporationInventors: William Keehn, Richard Rothamel, Aretha Ashby, Davor Juravic, Franjo Baltorinic, Yomayra Diaz, Steven Bautista, Donald Barnvos, Tracy Wojnarowski, Eric Lew

Publication number: 20110084543Abstract: A bead seat clincher bicycle rim includes a tire supporting surface bounded by a first straight sidewall and a second straight sidewall wherein said bicycle rim does not comprise bead hooks. A method for forming a bead seat clincher rim includes forming composite plies in a bottom portion of a mold and placing a single piece upper portion over the bottom portion. A bladder is inflated in the center of the mold to form a closed cavity within the rim. The rim is cured and the bladder is deflated. The single piece upper portion and bottom portion of the mold are removed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2010Publication date: April 14, 2011Applicant: REYNOLDS CYCLING LLCInventor: Paul Eric Lew

Publication number: 20080003338Abstract: An extrusion process incorporates a forming manifold where a tubular flow of a second material is intermittently interrupted while a core flow of a first material is discharged substantially continuously. Subsequently, the core flow is severed to form individual food items or treats for humans, animals, and the like, where the tubular flow results in an outer component surrounding an inner component which protrudes from one or both ends of the outer component. Material of the core flow is bone-like, while material of the tubular flow is meat like. Material of the tubular flow may include material from the core flow subjected to mixing in a static mixer to achieve a marbled texture of the outer material.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2006Publication date: January 3, 2008Applicant: Del Monte CorporationInventors: Donald Barnvos, Hilda Fleischman, Davor Juravic, William Keehn, Steven Bautista, Eric Lew, Yomayra Diaz, Franjo Baltorinic
