Publication number: 20060151496Abstract: A cup (10) is disclosed which enables a user to draw beverages from two or more receptacles (14, 16) within the cup (10) through straws (20, 22) extending through a lid (18) into the respective receptacles (14, 16). The size of the straws (20, 22) may differ so that beverages of different viscosities can be drawn at the same rate from the respective receptacles (14, 16). The separate receptacles (14, 16) may be formed by a divider (12) in a single cup; alternatively, or separate receptacles may be molded and secured together by integrally molded components on the respective receptacles or by an additional element such as an elastic band. The lid (18) and cup (10) may also include complementary means to ensure that the lid (18) can only be placed on the cup with the straws extending into the proper receptacles.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 15, 2003Publication date: July 13, 2006Applicant: VISUAL GRAPHIC SYSTEMS INC.Inventors: Donall Healy, Oleg Pasynkov, Maureen Termecz

Patent number: 7069854Abstract: An improved method and system for cleaning a cylinder of a printing press. One method involves soaking a strip of cleaning fabric on a press with a low volatility organic compound solvent. Excess solvent, if any, is removed to place the strip of cleaning fabric in functional equilibrium with the solvent. The cleaning fabric is then used to clean a cylinder. Alternatively, the strip of cleaning fabric is soaked on site by contacting the strip of cleaning fabric with the solvent and wrapping the strip of cleaning fabric into a cleaning fabric supply roll. The cleaning fabric is then brought in engagement with a printing press having a cylinder to be cleaned without disposing a sleeve around the fabric roll and without substantially disturbing the distribution of the solvent in the fabric roll and detrimentally affecting the cleaning ability of the fabric.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2001Date of Patent: July 4, 2006Assignee: Baldwin Graphic Systems Inc.Inventors: C. Robert Gasparrini, Peter E. Anselmo, Walter H. Cano

Patent number: 7040729Abstract: Systems and methods for delivering ink by controlling a pressure of the ink. A vacuum or partial vacuum is maintained at an ink reservoir that supplies ink to one or more print heads. As the temperature of the inks or of the printing system changes, the pressure of the ink experiences a corresponding change. The printing system is equipped with temperature sensors to detect the temperature of the ink, the print heads, or the printing system. The temperature data is processed and an adjustment is made to the partial vacuum maintained on the ink reservoir to accommodate changes in temperature. The temperatures are repeatedly sampled to ensure that the pressure of the partial vacuum is properly maintained for current temperatures.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2004Date of Patent: May 9, 2006Assignee: Oce Display Graphics Systems, Inc.Inventor: David B.
