Abstract: A dry food dispenser includes a base, a container, and an actuation mechanism. The base supports the dispenser, provides a cradle for receiving a food receptacle, and a trigger for interacting with the actuation mechanism. The container includes a lateral surface formed around an interior volume and a dispensing mechanism with a chute, an outlet, and a portioning mechanism. The dispensing mechanism is activated by the trigger through means of the actuation mechanism. The dispensing mechanism allows for example cereal to flow from the interior volume, through the chute, and out of the outlet. The portioning mechanism controls how much cereal is dispensed each time the trigger is engaged, ensuring a consistent volume of cereal deposited in the food receptacle. The amount of cereal in the container is indicated by measurement markings on a transparent section of the lateral surface.

Abstract: Solid waste of metallic or plastic composition is cleansed of contaminants by solvent extraction using a combination of primary solvent and co-solvents that may be pressurized and heated to above the critical state. The process is particularly applicable to the remediation of solids contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls. Contamination can be reduced to less than two parts per million (by weight).

Abstract: A network unit includes an enclosure having first and second compartments, plural input terminals, and a primary switch having an input and an output, the input being electrically connected to the input terminals. The output of the primary switch is electrically connected to the input of a network transformer. A network protector includes an input, an output and a circuit breaker electrically connected between the input and the output of the network protector. The network protector input is electrically connected to the network transformer output. Plural circuit protection devices are electrically connected between the network protector output and plural output terminals. The circuit breaker is substantially enclosed by the second compartment. The network transformer, the primary switch and part of the network protector are enclosed by the first compartment.

Abstract: A work content variation control system includes an apparatus having a computer-readable medium encoded with a computer program. The computer program, when executed, receives order data for a family grouping of a plurality of ordered products, converts the order data to work content, groups the order data with like order data with respect to the work content, creates parsing rules with respect to the work content and defines setup rules for use to schedule assembly of the ordered products.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and apparatuses for the continuous processing and solids handling in near-critical and supercritical fluids. The present invention also allows for treatment of the starting material with the near-critical or supercritical fluid. The remaining raffinate is then continuously transferred and may be collected in a barrier fluid.

Abstract: The present invention provides a means for the recovery of residual specialty oils from cake using a compressed solvent, preferably carbon dioxide. The present invention also allows for the cake to be toasted before extraction. The compressed solvent can be recycled and the process is continuous.

Abstract: A three piece interior rear view mirror assembly for a vehicle having an upper mirror and a lower mirror, and a lower left and a lower right mirror independently mounted beneath the upper mirror. The left and right mirrors are disposed at a position between the upper mirror and the windshield. The upper, right and left mirrors are each independently adjustable on socket and sphere mountings. The entire rear view mirror assembly is further mounted on sphere and socket mountings adjacent the windshield of the vehicle.
