Publication number: 20180289205Abstract: Systems, methods and cartridges for carbonating or otherwise dissolving gas in a precursor liquid, such as water, to form a beverage. A gas source can be provided in a cartridge which is used to generate gas that is dissolved into the precursor liquid. A beverage medium, such as a powdered drink mix or liquid syrup, may be provided in the same, or a separate cartridge as the gas source and mixed with the precursor liquid to form a beverage. The use of one or more cartridges for the gas source and/or beverage medium may make for an easy to use and mess-free system for making sparkling beverages, e.g., in the consumer's home.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 9, 2018Publication date: October 11, 2018Applicant: Bedford Systems LLCInventors: Thomas J.

Patent number: 7156439Abstract: A recessed storage well is formed in the rear load floor of an automotive vehicle to provide cargo transport capabilities for wet cargo. The recessed storage well is provided with a drain to permit the flow of liquids collected within the recessed storage well to be discharged externally of the vehicle. The recessed storage well is formed from impervious material to permit the storage of wet articles of cargo without dampening the carpet covering on the rear load floor. The drain is seated in an automotive frame component by a rubber grommet that prevents the transfer of vibrational noise to the recessed storage well. The drain enables the use of a water spray in clean-up operations by allowing the collected water to drain away from the recessed storage well.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2006Date of Patent: January 2, 2007Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Peter Bejin, Alan Cucknell, Iain Sabberton, Peter Cauwood, Julian Scarfe, Jamie Norris, Neil Mason

Patent number: 7147416Abstract: A flexible cargo restraining straps mounted on the sidewalls of the rear cargo area of an automotive vehicle to receive and restrain small cargo items from moving about the rear cargo area of the vehicle. The divider members are positionable along the longitudinal length of the restraining straps to permit the creation of a cargo receptacle that conforms to the size of the small cargo item being placed therein. Preferably, the divider members are slidable along slots formed in the sidewall of the rear cargo area and can be selectively locked into the desired position. Additional divider members can be added to the restraining straps as desired for creating cargo receptacles therein as needed. Alternatively, the cargo restraining straps can be mounted on the roof or on the interior of the door for the rear cargo area.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2005Date of Patent: December 12, 2006Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Alan Cucknell, Iain Sabberton, Peter Cauwood, Julian Scarfe, Jamie Norris, Neil Mason

Patent number: 7118152Abstract: A screen system is stowed in a compact storage position at a forward part of the rear cargo area adjacent the floor. The screen is extendable from the storage position to provide multiple uses. A vertical orientation of the screen can provide a rear seat storage pocket at a half-height position or a barrier between the passenger compartment and the rear cargo area at a full-height position. Horizontal deployment of the screen will provide a cargo restraint device or a carpet protector. The screen can be connected to the support for the spring-loaded cylinder to create a wrap storage device for cargo positioned next to the spring-loaded cylinder. The cylinder can be re-oriented to an intermediate location within the cargo area to create with a vertical extension thereof a divider for the cargo area. The screen can also be utilized as a conventional elevated security cover for the cargo area.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2005Date of Patent: October 10, 2006Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Alan Cucknell, Iain Sabberton, Peter Cauwood, Julian Scarfe, Jamie Norris, Neil Mason
