Patent number: 8757051Abstract: A food preparation device for crimping and sealing pieces of bread includes a base, at least one first heating unit positioned on the base, and at least one second heating unit spaced from the base and extending substantially parallel to the first heating unit. The second heating unit is movable from a first position spaced a first distance from the first heating unit to a second position spaced a second, shorter distance from the first heating unit for crimping and sealing bread pieces together between the first and second heating units. The first and second heating units remain parallel with one another while the second heating unit moves from the first position to the second position.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2010Date of Patent: June 24, 2014Assignee: Ursa Major, Inc.Inventors: Gary E. Medved, David A. Medved

Patent number: 6671436Abstract: A system for exchanging optical signals between two separate locations. Each location is provided with a transceiver that includes a transmitter and a receiver. Both the transmitter and the receiver are based on a transceiver unit, used as a transmitter unit in the transmitter and as a receiver unit in the receiver. The transceiver unit includes a multimode optical waveguide and imaging optics that collimates the light emerging from the waveguide in the transmitter implementation of the unit and that focuses incoming light onto the waveguide in the receiver implementation of the unit. The waveguide is terminated by a FC/APC to suppress reflections at the waveguide/air interface. In each transceiver, the units are mounted in clusters, with their optical axes all parallel. Transmitter units of a transmitter cluster are optically coupled via a splitter to a common input waveguide, possibly via one or more optical amplifiers.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2001Date of Patent: December 30, 2003Assignee: Jolt Ltd.Inventors: David Medved, Leonid Davidovich
