Patent number: 11993416Abstract: The invention relates to a container (1), preferably a bottle, which extends along a main axis (A) and comprising a wall forming a neck portion (2), a shoulder portion (3) connected to the neck portion (2), a body portion (4) connected to the shoulder portion (3), the body portion (4) comprising a grip portion (7), and a base portion (5) forming the bottom of the container (1) and connected to the body portion (4). The grip portion (7) comprises, over at least the majority of its dimension along the main axis (A), a plurality of spiral ribs (13) formed by the wall of the container (1) and spiralling in parallel around the main axis (A). The spiral ribs drastically increase side stability, compression and twisting deformation resistance of the container, while they have a non-technical and appealing appearance.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2019Date of Patent: May 28, 2024Assignee: Societe des Produits Nestle S.A.Inventors: Nicolas Dabrowski, Lucas Gaino Albiero, Johannes Zimmer, Jason C. Billig, Daniel T. Kim, Stuart M. Leslie

Publication number: 20240157524Abstract: A fastening tool having a socket and a socket wrench with laser induced friction surfaces or lines on the outer surface of the socket is described herein. The laser induced friction surfaces may have a plurality of kerfs with recast material to increase the coefficient of friction on the outer surface of the socket. As a result, the user of the fastening tool may pull the socket off a head of a fastener with his or her hands instead of having to dislodge the socket first with a blunt object, such as a hammer. It is contemplated that the socket wrench may have laser induced friction surfaces or lines also.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 9, 2022Publication date: May 16, 2024Inventor: Andrew Jason Zimmer

Patent number: 11763835Abstract: A voice controlled assistant has a housing to hold one or more microphones, one or more speakers, and various computing components. The housing has an elongated cylindrical body extending along a center axis between a base end and a top end. The microphone(s) are mounted in the top end and the speaker(s) are mounted proximal to the base end. A control knob is rotatably mounted to the top end of the housing to rotate about the center axis. A light indicator is arranged on the control knob to exhibit various appearance states to provide visual feedback with respect to the one or more functions being performed by the assistant. In one case, the light indicator is used to uniquely identify participants involved in a call.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2021Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Daniel Christopher Bay, Ramy Sammy Sadek, Menashe Haskin, Jason Zimmer, Robert Ramsey Flenniken, Heinz-Dominik Langhammer

Publication number: 20230279924Abstract: A multi-component idler or pulley that may be used with a belt and pulley system of an automobile is disclosed. The multi-component idler may have an external idler housing coupled to a mounting hub that is designed to be connected to a mounting surface of the belt and pulley system. The axial position of the external idler housing may be adjustable relative to the mounting hub using a threaded engagement or a plurality of shims between the components. The external idler housing and the mounting hub may be fastened to each other by bolts once their positions are adjusted relative to each other. Different types of external idler housing may also be used with the mounting hub. In this way, the serpentine belt of the belt and pulley system may be adjusted based on the user's needs.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 23, 2023Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventor: Andrew Jason Zimmer

Publication number: 20230243632Abstract: A tool for identifying a correct belt for a system of pulleys from a plurality of prefabricated belts having different lengths is disclosed. The tool may include a belt track attached to a first end portion of a measurement belt. The measurement belt may be wrapped around the system of pulleys. An opposed second end portion of the measurement belt may be disposed adjacent to the belt track which may include a reference indicator. The reference indicator will be aligned to one of a plurality of measurement markings on the second end portion which indicates the correct belt to order from among the plurality of prefabricated belts.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 3, 2023Publication date: August 3, 2023Inventor: Andrew Jason Zimmer
