  • Publication number: 20170349318
    Abstract: A container or package for a food product is provided that includes a pedestal tray/support member formed of a material capable of supporting the weight of the food product to be positioned thereon and a cover engagable with the support member. The support member is formed with features to allow the cover to be readily engaged and disengaged from the support member and to enable the package to be easily grasped and moved in its entirety all without the need for a separate reinforcing corrugated pad disposed on the support member.

  • Patent number: 6325575
    Abstract: A tool for simultaneously machining multiple surfaces on a stationary workpiece can include a rotary tool body having multiple cutter assemblies spaced circumferentially around the tool body. Different ones of the cutter assemblies can include differently angled cutting elements for machining different frusto-conical surfaces in the workpiece. At least some of the cutting elements can have two separate cutting edges.

  • Patent number: 5672035
    Abstract: A turn broaching machine for broaching a workpiece comprises a hollow arbor having a plurality of axially spaced apart, circumferentially extending cutting segments projecting radially outwardly from the side wall thereof. The cutting segments each have a radially outer peripheral edge provided with broaching elements. A closed loop system circulates a heated fluid through the arbor. The fluid is heated to an elevated temperature of about 100 F.-150 F. to maintain the arbor in a similarly heated condition during broaching. Maintaining the arbor at a relatively constant, elevated temperature during broaching stabilizes the broach by eliminating axial thermal expansion.

  • Patent number: 5156501
    Abstract: A face mill having one or more cartridges for adjustably supporting cutter inserts on the end face of the rotating tool body. Each cartridge has a convex arcuate surface seated against a concave arcuate seat surface formed on or in the milling tool body. A torsion bar is integrally extended from the cartridge parallel to the axis of the concave seat surface. Also, a manual adjustment screw is located perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the cartridge for applying an adjustment force to the cartridge in opposition to the action of the torsion leaf spring. The torsion bar applies a pre-load force to the cartridge. The manual adjustment screw exerts an opposing force that rotates the cartridge to a desired position for proper orientation of the associated cutter insert.
