Patent number: 7340311Abstract: An improved electrical panel design provides a modular, power-reliable, buss-lockout and true emergency-stop capabilities. Through the use of an interface, the approach eliminates numerous outdated, if not antiquated, parts, including safety locks, mechanical disconnect switches, E-stop safety relays, and safety Programmable controllers. The modular panel design saves interior panel space, permitting the use of single-door access, in some cases. Panel doors cannot be opened with live electricity without some form of electronic authorization, and a record of access is stored for future reference. Power may not then be reactivated with the doors opened, thereby virtually eliminating disconnect related accidents. Automatic shut down further occurs with a plant network emergency, ground-fault interruption, or panel door violation.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2002Date of Patent: March 4, 2008Inventors: Richard Landis, Anthony Moceri

Patent number: 5294015Abstract: A large easy opening plastic lid, such as for a five gallon paint can, having a peripheral flange with an annular locking ring that engages an annular bead on a container sidewall to retain the lid in sealed engagement with the container. The flange is formed with a plurality of peripherally spaced frangible lines of weakness, which, when broken, segment the peripheral flange into separate flange segments, each having a segment of the locking ring. Following rupture of the flange along the frangible lines of weakness, each of the flange segments is independently pivotable between two positions, a first lowered position in which the respective segments of the locking ring engage with the container bead to securely retain the lid on the container, and a second raised or winged position in which all of the respective segments of the locking ring are disengaged from the container bead to facilitate easy removal and replacement of the lid.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 1992Date of Patent: March 15, 1994Assignee: Landis Plastics, Inc.Inventor: H.

Patent number: 5238135Abstract: A reclosable plastic lid having a peripheral flange with a substantially annular projection that engages an annular shoulder on a container sidewall to retain the lid initially on the container full of contents. The flange is formed with a weakened portion defining a tear strip which removes to detach spaced portions of the flange along with portions of the annular projections leaving flange portions which are folded upwardly about hinge lines to retracted positions out of locking engagement with said annular shoulder. With the tear strip removed and the remaining flange portions pivoted outwardly toward horizontal positions, it is much easier to remove the lid from the container. When the lid is re-applied to reclose the container, the remaining attached, flange portions are pivoted down into engagement with container shoulder to retain the lid on the container and thereby, prevent spillage of the container's contents.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 1992Date of Patent: August 24, 1993Assignee: Landis Plastics, Inc.Inventor: H.
