Abstract: Disclosed herein are compositions comprising agglomerates formed of fruit flakes and target ingredients, such as flavorings, colorings, aromatic particles, nutrients, etc. Also disclosed are methods for making fruit flake agglomerates that can deliver higher concentrations of flavorings, colorings, aromatic particles, nutrients, etc.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for extruding protein, such as whey protein, for example, in a puffed form that can readily be ground, milled, or otherwise reduced in size to produce protein powder that can be used to reduce hardening in protein bars. The method uses acidification of the protein to modify its behavior during the extrusion process and produce extruded products (e.g., crisps) with improved properties.

Abstract: A method and system for monitoring the deployment of digital content by transferring a plurality of watermark codes to the target system. The deployment may represent an installation of a software image on a computer or on another type of target system. The watermark code may include machine information and state information, and may be an encrypted code. Additional executable code for securing against watermark violations during the lifetime of the target system may be transferred to the target system during deployment.

Abstract: A space-efficient workroom organization system comprising a slotwall panel and/or slot track storage system with at least one repositionable slotwall or slot track mounted storage cabinet, and a workbench system comprising a workbench having a work surface and defining a storage recess beneath the work surface, with at least one mobile storage cabinet.

Abstract: A space-efficient workroom organization system comprising a slotwall panel and/or slot track storage system with at least one repositionable slotwall or slot track mounted storage cabinet, and a workbench system comprising a workbench having a work surface and defining a storage recess beneath the work surface, with at least one mobile storage cabinet.

Abstract: A removable panel sized to overlie and connect at least two modules each having a top. The removable panel can include a work surface comprising the top surface of the panel and a mating surface on the bottom surface of the panel. The mating surface can include at least a first portion arranged to cooperate with the top of a first module and a second portion arranged to cooperate with the top of a second module. The removable panel and modules can form a storage and work system. The modules can be mobile or can be stationary. A number of mating surface arrangements are disclosed that cooperate with a number of module top surfaces.

Abstract: An under reamer for expanding a borehole through an earthen formation is taught. The under reamer includes: a mandrel including an end for connection into a drill string and an opposite end and a housing including an inner bore, telescopically disposed over the mandrel and axially moveable relative to the mandrel but rotationally moveable with the mandrel. A plurality of under reamer arms are carried on the housing, the under reamer arms are formed as blocks including cutter-supporting portions in which poly-crystalline diamond compact cutters are mounted. The under reamer arms are moveable by driving the housing axially over the mandrel between a retracted position extending into the bore of the housing and an expanded position wherein the under reamers arms are pivoted out of the housing inner bore and supported therebehind by the mandrel such that the cutter-supporting portions are exposed for use to enlarge a borehole.

Abstract: A movable module for use with a workbench. The workbench can provide docking space for three modules that can function as an additional work surface when pulled out from under the workbench or when used alone. The movable module is mounted on casters for movement from underneath the workbench. The casters include two fixed casters at the front of the movable module and two pivotal casters at the rear of the movable module.

Abstract: A heavy-duty workbench with strong metal legs and a thick hardwood top. The workbench can provide docking space for three modules that can function as an additional work surface when pulled out from under the workbench or when used alone. The workbench and modules are designed for use in non-climate controlled spaces such as a garage where temperature and humidity extremes are common. Electrical outlets can be provided in an optional backsplash mounted at the rear edge of the workbench.

Abstract: A heavy-duty workbench with strong metal legs and a thick hardwood top. The workbench can provide docking space for three modules that can function as an additional work surface when pulled out from under the workbench or when used alone. The modules can be provided with an optional hardwood top. The modules can have large heavy-duty casters to facilitate easy movement for use and cleaning. The workbench and modules are designed for use in non-climate controlled spaces such as a garage where temperature and humidity extremes are common. Electrical outlets can be provided in an optional backsplash mounted at the rear edge of the workbench.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling operation of an ultraviolet air treatment device including an ultraviolet lamp positioned to treat air within an air handling system that operates in either an on state or an off state. The method includes activating the ultraviolet lamp, and determining the operational state of the air handling system. The ultraviolet lamp is deactivated upon expiration of a predetermined time period during which the air handling system remains in the off state. The predetermined time period is preferably 30-60 minutes, preferably 40 minutes for residential applications.

Abstract: A slotwall panel storage system has a slotwall panel with a plurality of generally “T” shaped slots forming a plurality of generally “T” shaped slats and a hanger bracket for removably mounting a device on the slotwall panel. The hanger bracket includes a support portion, a first generally “J” shaped hook on one edge of the support portion and a second generally “J” shaped hook on an opposite edge of the support portion. A hook or storage device is attached to the support portion of the hanger bracket.

Abstract: A space-efficient workroom organization system comprising a slotwall panel and/or slot track storage system with at least one repositionable slotwall or slot track mounted storage cabinet, and a workbench system comprising a workbench having a work surface and defining a storage recess beneath the work surface, with at least one mobile storage cabinet.

Abstract: A humidity control assembly is provided for use with a refrigerator crisper pan which is constructed to snap into a plain opening in a wall of the crisper pan. The humidity control assembly is formed of two pieces, a slide body having detents for securing the body in the wall of the crisper pan and a track for receiving a control slide member. The control slide member is received in the track and can slide to change the effective size of an opening through the slide body. No additional fasteners are required to hold the humidity control assembly in the crisper pan and no special molding or machining is required for the crisper pan.

Abstract: A book binding comprises a hard cover and a plurality of wire elements connected to the hard cover. The hard cover includes a front side, a back side, and a backbone bridging the front and back sides. The back side includes a plurality of pairs of apertures located adjacent and generally parallel to the backbone. The back side further includes a hinge spaced slightly away from the backbone and extending from a top edge to a bottom edge of the back side. The hinge is positioned between the plurality of pairs of apertures such that one aperture in each of the pairs of apertures is located on one side of the hinge and the other aperture in each of the pairs of apertures is located on the other side of the hinge. Each of the wire elements engages an associated pair of the plurality of pairs of apertures such that an arc-like section of each of the wire elements is located adjacent an outer surface of the back side.
