  • Patent number: 11912024
    Abstract: A print component integrated circuitry package includes a number of temperature sensors where each of the plurality of the temperature sensors is disposed in a corresponding temperature region of an integrated circuitry. In an example, an analog sense bus conductively connects to all of the plurality of temperature sensors and an external sensor pad that is to connect to a corresponding print controller contact.

  • Patent number: 8662004
    Abstract: A balloon fill gauge for a balloon made of elastomeric expanding material has a base sheet with balloon filling indicia thereon that is temporarily tackable on to the balloon face material. An indicator tab with two ends having one end temporarily tackable onto the balloon material has its other end slideably interlockable with the base sheet. An indicator mark on the tab is alignable with the balloon filling indicia to indicate when the balloon is full as the tacked base sheet and tacked indicator tab move apart during the filling of the balloon. The balloon fill gauge alternatively may have an elongate non-stretchable indicator tab having two ends tackable onto the balloon material which physically acts to visual indicate when the balloon is full by snapping in two, popping off the balloon or changing color.

  • Publication number: 20120228457
    Abstract: A balloon holder includes a stem for locking a balloon tail in place. The stem includes an inner channel for receiving the balloon tail. The inner channel is located between side walls of the stem, and pairs of locking fingers extend from the side walls into the inner channel. The application of a deforming force to the locking fingers causes the locking fingers to bend, thereby allowing the balloon tail to enter the inner channel. When the deforming force is removed the locking fingers return to a substantially planar state, thereby locking the balloon tail in place within the inner channel.

  • Publication number: 20120184175
    Abstract: An improved balloon cup for mounting and supporting a balloon with the valve tail on a stick includes a frustoconical top for supporting and holding a balloon with a first depending slot therethrough for passing the balloon tail therethrough. A stem depends from the top with an open inner channel circular in cross section extending the length of the stem. The channel is in open communication with the slot through an elongated channel opening for receiving the balloon tail therethrough. After the balloon tail is placed within the inner channel, the stick is transversely placed into the circular inner channel through the elongate channel opening and the stick and balloon tail are held in place by opposing bias flanges along the elongate channel opening.

  • Publication number: 20120184176
    Abstract: A gas-inflatable character aerostat or balloon with at least one gas-inflatable appendage comprising a linear and non-linear gas-inflatable connecting ladder structure connecting the gas-inflatable appendage to the gas-inflatable aerostat to permit free movement of the appendage in relation to the aerostat in three dimensions. The ladder structure includes two sheets of elongate polymeric material fused together with the ladder structure to be inflated with gas between the sheets. The ladder structure includes an elongate gas-inflatable main channel and gas-inflatable lateral extensions extending from and in flow communication with the main channel.
