  • Publication number: 20220240525
    Abstract: Soft cooked egg products having a runny yolk are prepared by removing the eggs from their shells; cooking so that the egg white has a temperature of no more than about 175° F. and the egg yolk has a temperature of no more than about 150° F.; cooling the egg to an internal temperature of 75° F. or less; sealing the egg in a package; and pasteurizing. Alternatively the shell-less eggs are packaged sealed in a package and cooked so that the egg white has a temperature of no more than about 175° F. and the egg yolk has an internal temperature of no more than about 150° F. The processes are carried out under processing conditions such that the pasteurized, cooked, packaged eggs have runny yolks. Products made by this process are also described.

  • Publication number: 20220173535
    Abstract: Various configurations of compressible electrical assemblies are disclosed herein. Each variation of the compressible electrical assemblies includes at least one dielectric, an inner conductor and an outer conductor. Each inner and outer conductor may be configured as a compressible contact. One embodiment of a compressible electrical assembly includes an inner compressible contact, and outer compressible contact and a dielectric disposed at least partially between the inner compressible contact and the outer compressible contact. Each compressible contact also has a divaricated-cut section with a plurality of cuts defined by at least one cut angle measured between a pair of opposing inner surfaces.

  • Publication number: 20220051339
    Abstract: The present invention creates a structure and system which reduces the expenses associated with selling, administering, and managing annuities. The present invention provides a well-managed set of TDFs that offer participants the opportunity, but not the obligation, to purchase an annuity at any time using all or a portion of a participant's plan account invested in the target date fund. This functionality permits participants to annuitize all or a portion of their account balance. The present invention further provides cheaper and easier access to annuity options than are otherwise available in the marketplace because no commissions will be paid to an insurance broker. The present invention provides to plan participants in longer-dated TDFs an investment opportunity in the reinsurer.

  • Patent number: 11246329
    Abstract: Provided are methods of manufacturing a cooked egg product having irregular shaped egg curds similar in shape, size, and mouthfeel to that of freshly cooked scrambled eggs. Liquid egg product is optionally first preheated then transferred to a belt oven and cooked to form a layer of cooked egg product. The layer of cooked egg product is then transported through an agitator, which initially breaks down the layer of cooked egg product, and subsequently is passed through a forming plate to shape the cooked egg product into irregular shaped egg curds similar in appearance to that of freshly cooked scrambled eggs. This process allows for a simplified ingredient deck and reduces the number of fines present in the final product.

  • Publication number: 20210408711
    Abstract: A coaxial cable connector assembly including a rear body, a coupler rotatably engaged with the rear body, where the coupler defines an inner channel extending through the coupler between a front portion of the coupler and a rear portion of the coupler, and a nominal portion defining a nominal inner span along the inner channel, and a retainer engaged with the coupler and the rear body, where the retainer couples the coupler to the rear body, where at least one of the retainer and the coupler defines an engagement passage having a non-uniform span, where at least a portion of the engagement passage extends inwardly from the nominal portion of the coupler and is structurally configured to contact an outer conductor of the coaxial cable forming an electrical pathway between the thread of the coupler and the outer conductor of the coaxial cable.

  • Publication number: 20210399505
    Abstract: A coaxial cable connector assembly includes a coupler defining an inner channel extending through the coupler and an outer conductor engagement feature extending inwardly from the inner channel, a rear body, positioned rearward of the coupler, defining a cable channel extending through the rear body, and structurally configured to receive the coaxial cable, and an adhesive reservoir positioned at least partially within the cable channel of the rear body, the adhesive reservoir including an adhesive and an adhesive reservoir breakable material that encapsulates the adhesive, where the adhesive reservoir breakable material is structurally configured to fracture upon the application of force exceeding a predetermined threshold, thereby releasing the adhesive from the adhesive reservoir to adhesively couple the coaxial cable to the rear body.

  • Patent number: 10730535
    Abstract: An emergency arrest device for a zip line is disclosed. The emergency arrest device is designed to tension and control a slide-and-grip knot, such as a Prusik knot, that is tied on the zip line. The device includes a mirror-image set of sidewalls, a front endwall connected between the pair of sidewalls at a front end of the device, and a rear endwall connected at a rear end of the device. The front and rear endwalls have openings sized to permit passage of the zip line therethrough. A tail fixation assembly including a clamp is mounted in the rear of the device. A knot-body control assembly is mounted in the front of the device. The knot-body control assembly includes arms that are resiliently biased to push the body of the slide-and-grip knot rearwardly when the device is impacted.

  • Patent number: 10717541
    Abstract: An unmanned aerial vehicle has an internal combustion engine, and a fuel and lubrication system comprising a fuelling system for fuelling the engine and a lubrication system for delivering lubricating oil to the engine. The fuelling system comprises a fuel reservoir from which fuel can be delivered to the engine. The fuel reservoir comprises a main tank and a header tank. The lubrication system comprises an oil tank. The oil tank is accommodated internally within the main tank to provide an integrated assembly. The arrangement provides for warming of lubrication oil for the UAV engine using several available heat sources. Further, the arrangement facilitates a configuration and layout intended to minimise or negate any undesirable moments of inertia for the UAV during flight as fuel and oil is consumed.

  • Patent number: 10536050
    Abstract: An electric motor mount and an electric motor mount system are provided. The electric motor mount includes a frame, a baseplate and a latch. The frame includes two arms, each having a bushing. The baseplate receives an electric motor foot plate, and may be removably attached to the frame in two different orientations. The latch is attached to an end of the frame, and secures the electric motor foot plate to the baseplate. One orientation of the baseplate allows the electric motor to be attached to one side of the electric motor mount, while the other orientation allows the electric motor to be attached to the other side of the electric motor mount. The electric motor mount system includes a mounting bracket and an electric motor mount.
