Patent number: 11814250Abstract: An air-powered conveyor belt cleaner is configured with a spinner manifold with cleaning heads having nozzles that output air against a conveyor belt and an opposing catch tray assembly that catches dislodged sesame seeds and small debris or particles from the cleaned conveyor belt. A hanging bracket attaches to opposing sides of the conveyor belt’s frame and uses rollers to direct the conveyor belt in a temporarily vertical direction while the air-powered conveyor belt cleaner operates. Once the conveyor belt is vertically-oriented, plant air is directed to inlets at the spinner manifold, which is then output through nozzles perpendicularly arranged relative to the conveyor belt. The cleaning heads are adapted to rotate while operating to increase the agitation against the conveyor belt. The tips of the nozzles/tubes are bent at an obtuse angle to create a thrust caused by the output air.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2022Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: Crossford International, LLCInventors: Victor A. Ceci, Gregory Wyatt, Evan Reyes

Publication number: 20230322498Abstract: A dynamic, reconfigurable, and modular cleaning device utilizes software, sensors, and modular components to provide a one-size-fits-all approach to cleaning conveyor belts. The cleaning device secures to a body or frame associated with a conveyor belt, in which an associated cleaning head cleans the conveyor belt's surface. The cleaning head has an arm that extends from its body and inserts into a corresponding opening on a connecting frame associated with the cleaning device. The cleaning head is then secured in place via a cylindrical pin that extends through aligned holes on the arm and the connecting plate. Insertion of the pin connects the components together, and removal of the pin enables a user to disconnect the cleaning head and swap a new one in its place, such as to provide a different cleaning action.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2023Publication date: October 12, 2023Inventors: Timothy J. Kane, Gregory Wyatt, Evan Reyes, Joseph Franzino, Russell Barnes, Robert Folchi

Patent number: 11565888Abstract: A cleaning apparatus for an endless conveyor belt is provided. The cleaning apparatus is operable for a rotary cleaning head to perform a cleaning action on a first section of the endless conveyor belt. In an embodiment of the present invention, the rotary cleaning head comprises a rotating disc assembly. The rotary cleaning assembly is operable for a mobile mount to position the rotary cleaning head into a first cleaning contact position with the endless conveyor belt. To affix the rotary cleaning head assembly to a mount, a connecting portion having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the proximal end includes a first coupling is provided. Said coupling is capable of making a connection to and disconnecting from the mobile mount, and said distal end capable of making a connection and disconnecting from the rotary cleaning head and adapted for use with the rotary cleaning head.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2022Date of Patent: January 31, 2023Assignee: Crossford International, LLCInventors: Timothy J.

Publication number: 20230021519Abstract: An atmospheric water harvesting system includes a water-harvesting unit with an air mover and a heat exchanger. The water-harvesting unit may also include one or more screens on which water can condense. The water-harvesting unit is supplied by a coolant pathway, in which a non-cryogenic fluid coolant flows. A cryogenic cell is in the coolant pathway. The cryogenic cell receives the fluid coolant and removes heat from it by causing or allowing a controlled heat transfer between the fluid coolant and a first cryogen sealed within an inner vessel in the cryogenic cell. The coolant may be a liquid at operating temperatures, and the cryogenic cell may cool it to an appropriate temperature without a phase change, essentially acting as a “cold battery” to remove heat from the coolant.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2021Publication date: January 26, 2023Inventors: Donald Wade BARKER, Matthew BALDWIN, Gregory Wyatt Mabry

Patent number: 11448459Abstract: Contaminants are removed from a raw natural gas stream and other types of mixed-gas streams by a separation system. The system is based on using a series of cryogenic cells, devices that can impose essentially any desired temperature and pressure conditions on a volume of incoming gas, down to cryogenic temperatures and up to multiple atmospheres of pressure. Used in succession at specific setpoints of temperature and pressure, the cryogenic cells cause gaseous contaminants in the raw gas stream to condense into liquid form, at which point, they can be separated from the stream. Flowmeters and component detectors, like mass spectrometers, are used to detect the state of the gas stream at various points in the system. The system may be divided into stages, each stage having cryogenic cells operating at different setpoints of temperature and pressure, in order to cause different contaminants to liquefy for separation.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2021Date of Patent: September 20, 2022Assignee: The Tisdale Group, LLCInventors: Donald Wade Barker, Matthew Baldwin, Gregory Wyatt Mabry
