  • Publication number: 20220186533
    Abstract: A gesture access system includes at least one wireless transceiver to be mounted to a motor vehicle having a powered door, a motor responsive to motor control signals to open the power door and a processor to process signals from the wireless transceiver to determine whether an object is exhibiting a predefined gesture and, if so, to control an unlocking actuator to unlock the powered door, to then continually monitor and process signals from the wireless transceiver to determine object parameters including a speed of movement of the object away from, and a distance of the object relative to, the powered door, determine a door opening speed based on the object parameters, and control the motor control signals to open the powered door at the determined door opening speed.

  • Publication number: 20070125013
    Abstract: A wall has a framed opening primarily for a window. A window unit is installed in the framed opening. A decorative unit is formed or preassembled from moldings and jambs and is thereafter installed into the opening to finish the opening and provide structure to receive coverings like a blind or a shutter. The decorative unit has a recess formed along the interior of the moldings which is sized to receive window blinds, shutters or window shades. Springs or sealing members are positioned between the molding and the perimeter of the installed window or door unit to seal and spring load the jambs between the unit and the molding. Clips and brackets may be used to facilitate preassembly and installation. The molding may be in two pieces with a finish piece that snaps onto or over brackets to secure the molding without need for more permanent means to affix in place.

  • Patent number: 4516731
    Abstract: A deboning apparatus having an internal seal for the end of the auger comprising a circular flange having slots therein for directing fluids away from the seal. The end of the auger is supported in a bearing assembly held in place by a cap which is bolted to a flange on the auger housing and to spaced, opposed columns. There is also an extra flight on the opposite end of the auger near the exit end for the bone and the end of each flight has a square tip.

  • Patent number: 4303206
    Abstract: A deboning apparatus of the sort which operates an auger means to separate bone and similar hard material from the meat of chickens, fish or other animals. The present machine is vertically oriented whereby the ground meat and bone product is ingested or introduced above and flows by the auger to a meat exit therebelow and then a bone exit below the meat exit. The electric drive motor is supported beneath the bottom support plate and there is a bottom radial bearing and a top combination radial and thrust bearing. Other components include a particular arrangement and a compression for adjusting internal pressure as well as a screen for separation of the bone and meat.
