  • Publication number: 20240081554
    Abstract: A frame for a refrigerated enclosure including a main frame member, a backing member, and a contact plate. The main frame member includes a base, a middle wall, and a forward flange. The backing member and the contact plate are coupled to the main frame member. The backing member includes a rear leg that couples on the rear wall of the base of the main frame member and an interior leg that couples on the interior wall of the base of the main frame member. The interior leg and the rear leg each include a thermal insulating portion. The interior leg includes a front portion that couples with the contact plate. The thermally insulating portions of the interior leg and the rear leg can be integral to one another and form an L-shape.

  • Publication number: 20220373246
    Abstract: A frame for a refrigerated enclosure includes a frame segment having, in cross-section, a main frame member including a base, a middle wall, and a forward flange. The forward flange of the main frame member absorbs heat from the ambient air to increase a temperature of one or more locations of the frame segment or a door of the refrigerated enclosure.

  • Publication number: 20220373244
    Abstract: A temperature-controlled enclosure for displaying cold items. The enclosure includes a body having a front opening and defining an interior space. A frame assembly is coupled in the front opening. One or more doors are coupled to the frame assembly. At least one of the doors includes one or more window panels, a housing assembly that holds the window panels, and a gasket. A ridge projects from the rear surface of the housing assembly between the gasket and the interior space of the enclosure. The ridge extends across a portion of an air gap between the rear surface of the housing assembly and a front surface of the frame assembly.

  • Patent number: 9909685
    Abstract: The bathtub child safety knob cover is a safety device that covers the knob for a water valve associated with a bath tub. The bathtub child safety knob cover fits over the knob in such a manner that the bathtub child safety knob cover will rotate around the knob unless the bathtub child safety knob cover is squeezed while being turned. The bathtub child safety knob cover comprises a shell and one or more decorative elements. The shell encloses the knob. The one or more decorative elements are placed on the shell.

  • Patent number: 8658126
    Abstract: Nanomaterials of the JT phase of the titanium oxide TiO2-x, where 0?x?1 having as a building block a crystalline structure with an orthorhombic symmetry and described by at least one of the space groups 59 Pmmn, 63 Amma, 71 Immm or 63 Bmmb. The nanomaterials are in the form of nanofibers, nanowires, nanorods, nanoscrolls and/or nanotubes and are obtained from a hydrogen titanate and/or a mixed sodium and hydrogen titanate precursor compound that is isostructural to the JT crystalline structure. The titanates are the hydrogenated, the protonated, the hydrated and/or the alkalinized phases of the JT crystalline phase that are obtained from titanium compounds such as titanium oxide with an anatase crystalline structure, amorphous titanium oxide, and titanium oxide with a rutile crystalline structure, and/or directly from the rutile mineral and/or from ilmenite.
