  • Publication number: 20230124453
    Abstract: A rotomolding composition comprises a blend of two polyethylenes: 1) a well stabilized polyethylene; and 2) a poorly stabilized polyethylene having a very low flow rate. The poorly stabilized polyethylene is further characterized by having a large particle size (from 500 to 3000 microns). Rotomolded parts prepared from the composition have a rough inner surface. Polyurethane foam adheres well to this rough surface.

  • Publication number: 20220198731
    Abstract: A method of forming a pixel-aligned volumetric avatar includes receiving multiple two-dimensional images having at least two or more fields of view of a subject. The method also includes extracting multiple image features from the two-dimensional images using a set of learnable weights, projecting the image features along a direction between a three-dimensional model of the subject and a selected observation point for a viewer, and providing, to the viewer, an image of the three-dimensional model of the subject. A system and a non-transitory, computer readable medium storing instructions to perform the above method, are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20220201273
    Abstract: A device for providing a reverse pass-through view of a user of a headset display to an onlooker includes an eyepiece comprising an optical surface configured to provide an image to a user on a first side of the optical surface. The device also includes a first camera configured to collect an image of a portion of a face of the user reflected from the optical surface in a first field of view, a display adjacent to the optical surface and configured to project forward an image of the face of the user, and a screen configured to receive light from the display and provide the image of the face of the user to an onlooker.

  • Patent number: 10766986
    Abstract: Rotomolded polyethylene containers that are used to store sulfuric acid can become discolored on the interior surface which is in contact with the acid. This problem may be mitigated by the use of an additive package that contains two primary antioxidants.

  • Patent number: 8322561
    Abstract: A container assembly (1) having a container body (11) and exterior shelf structures (41, 44) that are each reversibly attached to exterior surfaces (35, 38) of first (17) and second (20) sidewalls of the container body (11), is described. Each exterior shelf structure (41, 44) has a shelf base (47), and a forward shelf portion (56) and a rear shelf portion (62) that each extend upwardly from the shelf base (47). Each exterior shelf structure has a shelf space (77) that resides between and is defined in part by the forward (56) and rear (62) shelf portions. The forward shelf portion (56) of each exterior shelf structure (41, 44) has an open front or face (86) that is in communication with a recessed chamber (89) of the forward shelf portion (56). The exterior shelf structures (41, 44) may each be reversibly attached to the container body sidewalls (17, 20) by means of tabs (98) that are received within tab apertures (110) of the sidewalls.

  • Patent number: 8181807
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a container assembly (1) that includes a support structure (11) and a container (14) that resides reversibly within the support structure interior (62). The support structure (11) includes a pair of opposed first and second support sidewalls (26, 29) each having an elongated tube (32, 44) having a first open end (38, 50) and an elongated hollow interior (35, 47). The container (14) has opposing sidewalls (77, 80) that each have an elongated channel (104, 110). The first and second elongated tubes (32, 44) of the support structure (11) are each reversibly received within the first and second elongated sidewall channels (104, 110) of the container (14), as the container is reversibly introduced (e.g., slid) into the support structure interior (62) through the open forward portion (65) of the support structure (11). The container assembly (1) may be reversibly lifted by lift members (e.g.

  • Patent number: 3932249
    Abstract: A method of forming a reinforced rubber sheet useful for the lining of pipes, acid tanks, chimneys and the like, wherein a metal grid is interposed between adhesive surfaces of each of two rubber sheets, the rubber sheets overlapping the metal grid along all edges, evacuating the air from between the sheets to thereby draw them together and also to draw them into contact with the metal grid, thereby effecting adhesion between the adhesive surfaces of the two sheets of rubber and also between the rubber sheets and the metal grid.
