  • Feed Roller with Raised Portions for Feeding Dough to Mold Roller
    Publication number: 20240225015
    Abstract: A feed roller is formed with a generally cylindrical outer surface having raised portions arranged in a pattern that extends circumferentially around the surface. The raised portions are formed in distinct shapes. Preferably the distinct shapes are chevron shapes that retain dough between successive chevron shapes. The roller preferably has an annular ridge which prevents dough from escaping axially off the edge of the roller. In use, dough is feed between the feed roller and a mold roller. Some of the dough is retained on the outer cylindrical surface of the feed roller to provide a smooth surface for inserting the rest of the dough in mold cavities located in the mold roller.

  • Scalable Periphery Tunable Matching Power Amplifier
    Publication number: 20240235497
    Abstract: A scalable periphery tunable matching power amplifier is presented. Varying power levels can be accommodated by selectively activating or deactivating unit cells of which the scalable periphery tunable matching power amplifier is comprised. Tunable matching allows individual unit cells to see a constant output impedance, reducing need for transforming a low impedance up to a system impedance and attendant power loss. The scalable periphery tunable matching power amplifier can also be tuned for different operating conditions such as different frequencies of operation or different modes.
