  • Publication number: 20240121906
    Abstract: An operating unit for a molding machine includes a support, a screen part mounted pivotable on the support, and an operating part mounted pivotable on the screen part and/or the support, and the pivotability of the screen part and the operating part results in different use positions for an operator. The operating part is motion-coupled to the screen part and/or to the support by a mechanism and/or a drive unit at least in areas such that a first relative angle between the support and the screen part determines a second relative angle between the screen part and the operating part.

  • Patent number: 11954096
    Abstract: A system and method are presented that utilize facet modifications to alter user input values to perform a facet search on a found set of data records. The facet modifications are associated with item records, such as by using type attributes. Facet modifications can be associated with query information that is utilized to create a query on a user interface. Input received from the query is then modified according to the facet modifier in order to create facet search parameters. The facet search parameters are used to perform a facet search to narrow the found set of item records. In some embodiments, facet modifications are stored in facet modifier records. Multiple facet modifications can be stored in a single facet modifier record. A single query input can be manipulated by multiple facet modifications to create separate facet search parameters.

  • Patent number: 11402145
    Abstract: A refrigerator includes an evaporator, a first fan, a first duct, a second fan, a second duct, and a plate. The first duct is mounted between the evaporator and the first fan. The first fan moves air from the first duct into a first zone. The second fan moves air from the second duct into a second zone. The plate is mounted between the evaporator and the second duct. The plate includes a plate aperture wall that defines a duct aperture formed through the plate. A first aperture of the second duct is adjacent the second fan. A second aperture of the second duct is positioned to encompass the duct aperture. A center of the duct aperture is positioned a distance from a center of the evaporator measured in a first direction. The distance is between 0% and 40% of a total length of the evaporator in the first direction.
