  • Publication number: 20160221759
    Abstract: A conveyor system comprising a synchronization unit having a first conveyor belt, a second conveyor belt disposed adjacent to the first conveyor belt, an inlet end and an outlet end. The system further comprises a joint shuttle disposed between the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt, each of the first and second conveyor belts having a variable length while the distance between the inlet end and the outlet end is fixed. A discharge conveyor belt is disposed upstream the inlet end and is operating at a first velocity (VD). At a time T1, the velocity of the first conveyor belt (V1T1) is equal to the velocity of the discharge conveyor belt (VD) and, at a time T2, the velocity of the first conveyor belt (V1T2) is equal to the velocity of the second conveyor belt (Vm), without relative movement between the conveyor belts and objects conveyed thereon.

  • Patent number: 9292198
    Abstract: For rotational graphical user interface navigation, a display module displays a first face of a uniform prism rotatable only about a central horizontal axis. The uniform prism includes a plurality of faces. Each face has Graphical User Interface (GUI) controls for a unique function set. Only one face of the uniform prism is visible at a time. Each face is displayed with a geometric shape conforming to a face geometry of the multidimensional solid when the multidimensional solid is being rotated, and a face is displayed as filling a screen when the multidimensional solid is not being rotated. An input module receives a rotational command. The rotational command rotates the uniform prism around the central horizontal axis. The rotation module rotates the uniform prism to display a second face in response to the rotational command, displaying the rotation of the uniform prism.

  • Patent number: 9207018
    Abstract: A cooling system integrating a plurality of evaporative chillers, which each cool water to below ambient wet bulb temperature. In an air-to-air heat exchanger of each chiller, the incoming airstream used to evaporate water from the water stream is first cooled indirectly using the cooled air that is exhausted from a saturator of an adjacent chiller or subunit. By pre-chilling the air without adding moisture, each of the chillers of the cooling system is able to achieve water temperatures below the ambient wet bulb temperature. The system integrates or “daisy chains” multiple sub-wet bulb evaporative chillers or subunits such that the cool air output from one subunit is used to pre-cool the incoming air of another neighboring unit. To this end, adjacent units have their heat exchangers fluidically connected together (e.g., air flow output from each saturator is passed as cool return air through channels of an adjacent heat exchanger).
