Abstract: Methods of production of edible filamentous fungal biomat formulations are provided as standalone protein sources and/or protein ingredients in foodstuffs as well as a one-time use or repeated use self-contained biomat reactor comprising a container with at least one compartment and placed within the compartment(s), a feedstock, a fungal inoculum, a gas-permeable membrane, and optionally a liquid nutrient medium.

Abstract: A cooking appliance (100) that has a body (102) with an interior (114) for food to be cooked, and an opening (113) providing access to the interior. A door (101) attached to the body (102) to selectively open and close the opening (113), has a latch (106), and the body having a catch (202) for engaging the latch (106). The catch (202) is movable between a retracted position (238) and an extended position (236), and configurable in an engagement configuration for engaging the latch (106) and a release configuration for disengaging the latch. The body (102) having a biased member (214) to engage the catch (202) when the catch (202) is at the extended position (236). The biased member (214) is adapted to bias the catch (202) into the extended position (236) and bias the catch (202) to the release configuration.

Abstract: A logic device test system having memory device testing capabilities includes vector storage memory which receives and stores test vectors from a system controller. An address sequencer controls retrieval of the test vectors from the vector storage memory. Data driver circuitry coupled to the vector storage memory receives the test vectors retrieved from the vector storage memory. The data driver circuitry further includes data drivers coupleable to and driving devices under test using the test vectors. The data driver circuitry further including driver formatting circuitry coupled to the data drivers and formatting test vectors provided to the data drivers. A plurality of format code save registers in the driver formatting circuitry save test vectors and selectively provide the test vectors to the data drivers for driving the devices under test.

Abstract: Accessories are provided that may be used in a workspace to make the workspace more useful and convenient. A monorail attached to a top surface of a workspace panel is provided. A privacy screen, a light reflecting screen, a linear light, a flexible light and storage units may be attached to the monorail. A panel tile with apertures through a surface of the tile is also provided. A display tray, a document holder, a storage tray, a pencil holder, a disk holder, a bundle clip, a document gripper and a file organizer may be attached to the panel tile using connecting hooks inserted into the apertures. A fabric frame tile with a semi-transparent screen is also provided that diffuses light into the workspace and that may support tacks. A wire management cleat is also provided that may be attached to an underside of a worksurface for storing excess lengths of wire.

Abstract: A process and apparatus for high pressure impact coating of portions of workpieces such as the threaded openings in fasteners in avoidance of contaminating undesired portions of the workpieces with the coating material. A metered quantity of coating material is charged into a passageway and moved by low pressure air to a chamber ahead of an atomizing nozzle. High pressure air is introduced to the passageway and the coating material is fogged into a chamber defined by the workpiece and cooling. Proliferation and impingement of the cloud on the selected surfaces follows under vented conditions. A constriction in the vent line achieves the necessary delay and sets the system for accomplishing the coating. The machine structure facilitates use of the coating device with a wide range of female threaded fasteners and achieves the process steps while providing for flushing the lines and drying the working structure.

Abstract: Insoluble gases, liquid and solid materials present as the disperse phase in a heterogeneous dispersion are removed by contacting such dispersion with one side of a membrane in which the disperse phase is soluble and on which the disperse phase coalesces and contacting the other side of the membrane with a material which does not permeate or react with the membrane but which reacts with the disperse phase passing through the membrane. The reaction product is such that it does not permeate the membrane. In this manner the driving force for passage through the membrane by the disperse phase is maximized.
