An insulating material is positioned between and fills a space between the outer and inner panels. A plurality of mating flanges is attached to the walls such that each of the walls includes a mating flange securable to a mating flange on one more adjacently positioned one of the walls to form the completed housing.

Abstract: An apparatus for upholstering a truss allows an operator to staple a fabric web to the truss, rotate the truss, further staple the semi-finished truss and cut the fabric web. The truss is fully upholstered after the end surfaces of the truss are wrapped up in fabric and the fabric stapled in place. The apparatus may accommodate different size trusses. A web of fabric is pulled around at least one roller in the apparatus by rotation of two vise mechanisms on opposite sides of the truss.

Abstract: A surface cleaning head with a leading roller may be used to facilitate capturing of debris in the air flow into a suction conduit on the underside of the surface cleaning head. The leading roller is generally positioned adjacent to and in advance of the opening of the suction conduit. The surface cleaning head may have dual agitators—a leading roller and a rotating brush roll—with the leading roller being located in front of the brush roll. The leading roller may have a smaller diameter than the brush roll and may provide a softer cleaning element. The leading roller may also have a bottom portion exposed to the flow path to the suction conduit and at least a top half that is not exposed to that flow path. The leading roller may also float relative to the surface cleaning head and/or may be adjustable relative to the brush roll.

Abstract: Formulations, compositions and products for reducing allergenic Fel d 1 from the environment are disclosed. The formulations include at least one protease that interacts with the Fel d 1 and substantially degrades allergenic epitopes on the Fel d 1. Methods of using the formulations for reducing or eliminating allergenic Fel d 1 from the environment are also disclosed.

Abstract: A conveyor chain includes a plurality of side link assemblies and flight arm assemblies coupled together to form an elongated chain. The flight arm assemblies include a pair of opposing flight arms positioned on either side of the chain with the flight arms each including an elongated body formed with and extending from an integral base and a vertical sprocket opening formed in the integral base. The vertical sprocket opening is configured for engaging a tooth of a drive sprocket to drive the flight arm. The side link assemblies include a pair of opposing side straps positioned on either side of the chain each including a base and a pair of side strap bosses extending outwardly from the base.

Abstract: The present invention provides a fire extinguishing composition. The composition comprises monoammonium phosphate and potassium chloride. In one embodiment, the composition comprises a weight percentage of monoammonium phosphate in a range of between about 51% and about 99%, and a weight percentage of potassium chloride in a range of between about 1% and about 49%.

Abstract: A production support system for generating a plant bill of process, PBoP, from a product bill of process, PdBoP, for a production plant, a corresponding method and a corresponding computer program product is provided. The production support system includes: (a) a reasoning component for determining possible cells; (b) a selection component for selecting all those cells that address operation capabilities used in the PdBoP; (c) an operation capabilities identifying component for identifying, additional operation capabilities for the selected cells which include at least two production entities, PET, based on the operation capabilities of the individual production entities, PET; and (d) a PBoP generating component for generating the PBoP from the PdBoP using the additional operation capabilities identified by the operations identifying component.

Abstract: A surface cleaning head includes dual rotating agitators (e.g., a leading roller and a brush roll) and a removable cover for covering a top of the agitators and allowing access to the agitators from a top of the surface cleaning head. The dual agitators may be used to facilitate capturing of debris in the air flow into a suction conduit on the underside of the surface cleaning head. The brush roll may be located in a brush roll chamber and at least partially in an opening to the suction conduit. The leading roller may be positioned adjacent to and in advance of the suction conduit opening such that the leading roller engages debris and moves the debris toward the brush roll and the opening. The leading roller may be removable from the housing and held in place by the removable cover. The cover may be coupled using isolated latching mechanisms.

Abstract: A method for controlling a robot and/or an autonomous driverless transport system on the basis of a sensor-based identification of objects includes generating. Point pair features of the 2D surface contours on the basis of 2D surface contours of the objects to be identified. A point cloud of the environment is acquired using a distance sensor, a surface normal is estimated for each point, and corresponding point pair features of the environment are generated. In a voting method, environment features are compared with model features to efficiently generate pose hypotheses, which are subjected to an optimization and a consistency check in order to ultimately be accepted or rejected as an acquisition.

Abstract: In the managing apparatus for managing the manufacturing of a product worn by a user, a feature acquisition part acquires a plurality of features relating to a body shape of the user. A mapping part maps and superimposes, for each of a plurality of different users, a density distribution specified by a feature of the plurality of different users on a multi-dimensional feature space having the plurality of features as coordinate axes. A manufacturing data allocation part allocates, to a plurality of different points in the feature space, manufacturing data used for manufacturing a product corresponding to the region in the feature space including coordinates of each point. A production management part calculates the number of products to be manufactured using each piece of the manufacturing data on the basis of the coordinates of the plurality of different points in the feature space and the density distribution mapped to and superimposed on the feature space.
