  • Method and machine for producing packaging cushioning
    Patent number: 9427928
    Abstract: A method for producing packaging cushioning includes successively feeding sheets of a substrate at a first speed to a crumpling mechanism, crumpling the sheets at a second speed to convert the sheets into packaging cushion units, and controlling at least one of the first and second speeds to produce a desired degree of overlap between successive sheets, thereby generating a connected series of the packaging cushion units.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 25, 2009
    Date of Patent: August 30, 2016
    Assignee: Sealed Air Corporation (US)
    Inventors: Atul Arora, Mitchell W. Smith, Sr., Kenneth Chrisman, Kenneth J. Mierzejewski, David Seebauer, John Wysmuller, Glen Vincent

  • Positive air system for inkjet print head
    Patent number: 6890053
    Abstract: A positive air system, for a fluid jetting device that jets a fluid in a fluid droplet path prevents the ingress of dust and debris to the fluid jetting device and further prevents the introduction of dust and debris into the fluid droplet path. The air system includes an enclosure having at least one wall defining a barrier and enclosing the fluid jetting device. The barrier defines a local environment. The at least one wall has a plurality of orifices formed therein that are configured to direct a stream of pressurized air therefrom in a direction that diverges from the fluid droplet path. The fluid droplet path and the pressurized air stream direction do not converge so that the pressurized air flowing from the orifices does not interfere with the fluid moving through the droplet path.
