Patent number: 11932979Abstract: A laundry treating appliance for treating laundry items according to an automatic cycle of operation can include a cabinet defining an interior and having an access opening providing access to the interior. A tub can be located within the interior and can at least partially define a liquid chamber. A drum is rotatably mounted within the liquid chamber and at least partially defines a treating chamber. A clothes mover is located within the treating chamber and rotatable about a vertical axis. The clothes mover can include a base and a barrel.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2020Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: WHIRLPOOL CORPORATIONInventors: Jonathan A. Andrejczuk, Adam Gary, Philip J. Czarnecki, Benjamin D. Lowell, Sayer J. Murphy, James Jeffery, Eric W. Merrow, Emmanuel F. Gonzaga, Thomas R. Scott, Donald E. Erickson, Bradley D. Morrow, Jason S.

Publication number: 20240068733Abstract: A refrigeration appliance includes a freezer compartment fluidly coupled to an ice maker compartment via an ice maker return duct. An internal sensor is positioned within the freezer compartment and configured to sense a first condition within the freezer compartment. An external sensor is coupled to said refrigeration appliance and configured to sense a second condition external to said refrigeration appliance. A return fan is positioned within the ice maker return duct. A controller is operably coupled to the internal and external sensors to receive sensed first and second conditions. The controller is configured to determine a differential between the sensed first condition within the freezer compartment and the sensed second condition external to said refrigeration appliance. The controller activates the return fan to blow air from the ice maker compartment into the freezer compartment in response to the differential.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Applicant: WHIRLPOOL CORPORATIONInventors: Adam Gary, Keeley Kabala, Raghu Muddasani, Jeremiah S. Papke, Kyle Van Meter, Scott M. Wesbrook

Patent number: 9727135Abstract: Calibration of gaze tracking equipment is described, for example, in a desktop computing scenario. In various examples, an explicit calibration phase is carried out, optionally followed by an implicit calibration phase. In examples, the explicit calibration phase comprises requesting and receiving user manual input events associated with specified locations and measuring gaze associated with the manual input events. In examples, the implicit calibration phase is carried out without disturbing other activity of a user in the desktop computing environment, such as operating a graphical user interface. In various examples calibration data is stored in a plurality of buffers and used to control switching between explicit and implicit calibration phases.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2014Date of Patent: August 8, 2017Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Abigail Jane Sellen, Adam Gary Emfield, Arridhana Ciptadi, Kenneth Robert Woodberry, Andrew Blake

Patent number: 7906163Abstract: A belt less applicator of particulate materials for food products includes a differential impulse linear conveyor having a horizontal pan carrying a bed of particulate materials and food products spaced there along. Particulate materials are supplied from above to coat the food products as the pan conveys the products to a subsequent treatment station. Hammer like tamping contact of the products insures good adhesion of the coatings to the products. The excess particulate materials are recycled and the entrained dough balls removed as the products are discharged.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2006Date of Patent: March 15, 2011Assignee: Heat and Control Inc.Inventors: Adam Gary Dargusch, Paul Francis Heness, Christopher Gorton, John Macrae Silvester
