Luis Cediel has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Module for a modular conveyor belt having a microcellular structure
    Patent number: 6942913
    Abstract: A module for a modular conveyor belt, is described. The module is of a micocellular polymeric foam produced by an injection molding process. The foam polymeric material exhibits excellent mechanical properties required for modular conveyor belts capable of withstanding long service lives. Also, the reduced weight in comparison to conventionally molded modules helps decrease wear on the conveyor belt support structures including the drive sprockets.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: September 13, 2005
    Assignee: Habasit AG
    Inventors: Luis Cediel, Sergio Fandella
  • Module for a modular conveyor belt having a sandwich layer construction and method of manufacture
    Patent number: 6880696
    Abstract: A module for a modular conveyor belt, is described. The module is of a sandwich layer construction having a core polymeric material completely surrounded by a skin polymeric material. The skin material includes an antimicrobial material for inhibiting bacterial growth on the module, and the conveyor belt is particularly useful for conveying and transporting foods including food processing and food handling applications.

  • Module for a modular conveyor belt having antimicrobial characteristics and method of manufacture
    Publication number: 20040007448
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a modular conveyor belt formed of a plurality of interconnected modules with at least one of them having an antimicorbial material associated therewith. This provides the belt being resistant to growth of fungus, yeast, viruses, and Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria including Staph, E coli Klebsiella and Salmonella.
