  • Patent number: 9701119
    Abstract: A fluid ejection chip and associated methods of forming are disclosed. According to an exemplary embodiment, the fluid ejection chip comprises a substrate, a flow feature layer, and a nozzle layer. The flow feature layer is disposed over the substrate and has an exposed hydrophilic surface layer with an ink contact angle of about 80 degrees. The nozzle layer is disposed over the flow feature layer and has a thickness of about 4 microns to about 8 microns and an exposed hydrophobic surface layer having an ink contact angle of about 115 degrees.

  • Publication number: 20170075562
    Abstract: An electronic device displays a control user interface that includes a plurality of control affordances. The device detects an input by a contact at a location on the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to a control affordance, of the plurality of control affordances, on the display. In response to detecting the input, when a characteristic intensity of the contact does not meet an intensity threshold, the device toggles a function of a control that corresponds to the control affordance; and when the characteristic intensity of the contact meets the intensity threshold, the device displays modification options for the control that correspond to the control affordance. While displaying the modification options, the device detects a second input that activates a modification option of the modification options. The device modifies the control that corresponds to the control affordance in accordance with the activated modification option.

  • Publication number: 20150202737
    Abstract: A system for removing material from a workpiece comprising: a mounted-point grinding tool configured to move from a first position to a second position traversing at least a portion of a slot in a workpiece and removing material from a surface of the workpiece; and a first nozzle configured to deliver coolant to the mounted-point grinding tool, wherein the first nozzle is configured to move with the mounted point grinding tool from the first position to the second position so that the distance between the first nozzle and the mounted-point grinding tool remains substantially unchanged. A second nozzle can be mounted on the opposite side of tool from first nozzle, with the second nozzle also configured to move with the grinding tool so that the distance between the first nozzle and the mounted-point grinding tool remains substantially unchanged during grinding.

  • Publication number: 20150079883
    Abstract: An abrasive tool includes a bonded abrasive body having abrasive grains contained within a bonding material, wherein the bonded abrasive body comprises a complex shape having a form depth (FD) of at least about 0.3. The form depth is described by the equation [(R1?Rs)/R1], wherein Rs is a smallest radius (Rs) at a point along the longitudinal axis of the bonded abrasive body and R1 is a largest radius (R1) at a point along the longitudinal axis of the bonded abrasive body. The abrasive tool can be used to finish complex shapes in workpieces.

  • Publication number: 20150017885
    Abstract: A method of forming a workpiece having machinability rating not greater than a machinability rating of Inconel 718. The method may include removing material from the workpiece by moving at least one grinding tool relative to the workpiece and may be conducted at a specific grinding energy of not greater than about 7 Hp/in3 min (about 19 J/mm3) for a material removal rate of at least about 2.5 in3/min·in (about 25 mm3sec/mm).

  • Patent number: RE37715
    Abstract: A hanger particularly suited for use with garment sets such as a coat and trouser garment set or a coat and skirt garment set. The hanger includes an upper attachment member which is preferably hook shaped for attachment with a closet rod or the like and a main hanger body which is joined with the attachment member and includes an intermediate section and two shoulder sections extending outwardly to opposite sides of the intermediate section so as to support the garment piece that includes shoulders. The invention further includes a pivoting garment holder for the other garment piece in the set. The pivoting garment holder is supported at an upper end by the intermediate section either by an interface section provided at an upper portion of the intermediate section or by a cavity formed in a mid region of the intermediate section.
