Patent number: 11124633Abstract: A wide temperature water borne sealant that can be applied at low temperatures. The sealant can be a latex sealant composition including at least one latex polymer, at least one freeze thaw stabilizer, and at least one peptone or at least one additive derived from a peptone. The latex polymer can be an acrylic latex polymer with a Glass Transition Temperature (Tg) of 0° C. or less. The peptone can be enzymatic hydrolysate. The sealant can remain pliable at low temperatures making it ideal for applications that require flexibility at low temperatures its' rheology and viscosity are such that it can be applied at temperatures below 0° C. The low Tg latex assures that the sealant will remain permanently flexible and non-tacky when cured, and the peptone provides the sealant with the means to prevent the water from freezing down to approximately ?20° C.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2019Date of Patent: September 21, 2021Assignee: Red Devil, Inc.Inventor: Ali N.

Patent number: 4792236Abstract: A paint tinter system includes a plurality of canisters disposed in a circle about a rotatable plate. An orbiting plate, driven by a single motor, is connected to drive arms, each of which is connected to a crank arm of a stirrer in one of the canisters. The connection is made through a lost-motion device in a cap covering each canister. The cap captures the end of the drive arm, whereby the cap may be removed and hinged out of the way for providing access to the canister. An impeller is freely mounted for rotation in a socket in the bottom of the canister. The upper end of the impeller is driven by engagement between a pair of driver bosses rotated by the crank and edges of a top plate on the canister. Thus, when the cover is removed, the impeller may remain unmoved or be lifted from the socket for cleaning.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 1987Date of Patent: December 20, 1988Assignee: Red Devil, Inc.Inventors: Robert Heinis, James C.
