  • Patent number: 11326390
    Abstract: A foam spacer applicator may include: a conveyer unit configured to automatically transfer a glass panel; a foam head unit disposed at a predetermined distance from the front side of the conveyer unit, and configured to automatically supply and bond a spacer to the glass panel transferred from the conveyer unit through a combination of an X-axis horizontal operation and a Y-axis elevation operation through an elevation guide plate disposed with a vertical structure; and a magazine unit disposed at a predetermined distance from the rear side of the foam head unit, and configured to inject and apply a sealant to both surfaces of the spacer while adjusting tension of the spacer, and automatically supply the spacer to the foam head unit.

  • Publication number: 20140249405
    Abstract: Hardware and software methodology are described including a synthesized User Interface (UI) to provide guidance for injection and other procedures under medical imaging. The UI provides a practitioner the option of viewing multiple images concurrent with a live image. A guidance image corresponds to correct probe placement for a selected procedure, a reference image corresponds to an expected view with such probe placement in the live image. The reference image may be variously labeled. Another option involves probe tracking to update the guidance and/or reference image view(s).

  • Patent number: 4879228
    Abstract: A water-soluble levan having a weight average molecular weight of about 10,0000-40 million, preferably about 5-25 million and especially about 10-20 million which stabilizes a bovine serum albumin colloid having index (EAI) of about 3-100 determined according to the formula EAI=2T/OC wherein T is turbidity measured at 500 nm, C is the weight of emulsified protein per unit volume of the aqueous phase, and O is the volume fraction of a dispersed oil phase is produced by fermenting a nutrient growth medium feedstock having a carbon source consisting essentially of an assimilable sugar selected from the group consisting of sucrose, raffinose, or a mixture thereof with a Zymomonas mobilis microorganism capable of converting at least 50% of the fructose value of the sugar to said levan under nutrient growth conditions which enhance levan production while suppressing ethanol production. It is useful as a colloid stabilizing agent, particularly with foods, beverages pharmaceuticals, dentrifices, and cosmetics.

  • Patent number: 4547226
    Abstract: The sugar content of citrus press liquor is enhanced by separating citrus solids, extracting fructose, glucose, and sucrose from the solids, and recombining the aqueous extract to increase the sugar content thereof. By inversion of the sucrose present in the sugar-enhanced press liquor, a high fructose syrup can be readily obtained which is indistinguishable from high fructose corn syrup. When separation is effected by centrifugation, a biocidally active colloidal phase is formed from which citrus terpenes and limonene can be extracted, resulting in a press liquor suitable for fermentation. The solid residue remaining after extraction can also be recycled with the remaining press cake.

  • Patent number: 4536207
    Abstract: A chitin-protein complex is prepared from chitin-containing biological waste material such as crustacean shells. The complex is different from both chitin and chitosan, and has useful nematostatic and nematocidal activity for agricultural and horticultural applications by admixing nematocidally effective amounts with a plant growth medium. The complex also provides a source of nitrogen in slow-release form, making it particularly suitable for combination with fertilizers, soil conditioners, etc.
