Publication number: 20220000127Abstract: A novel and sustainable start-to-finish process for producing a premium ground beef product made from whole-ground primal cuts of beef, where the process begins with the cow-calf operation seeing the birthing of a calf at approximately one year prior to the desired date of slaughtering for retail, weaning the birthed calf until the calf is approximately six to nine months old, finishing the calf to the yearling stage (preferably at the main operation but optionally by a stocker/backgrounder), slaughtering the yearling for processing, and processing the yearling by deboning the carcass and whole-grinding the carcass to create a ground beef product that includes a mixture of primal cuts of beef.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 1, 2021Publication date: January 6, 2022Inventor: Billy Jack Burns, II

Patent number: 10435823Abstract: A fabric has first material yarns and second material yarns woven together to form a ground, The first material yarns are synthetic yarns, and the second material yarns are cotton pile yarns. A coloring process is performed which colors the second material yarns, but which does not take to the first material yarns. A second coloring or printing process is performed on the technical front.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2017Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: Cove & Edgewater, LLCInventors: Yuehua Allen Guo, Jack Burns

Patent number: 10309054Abstract: A method of printing and processing a fabric having first material yarns forming a technical front, and second material yarns forming a technical back, first and second material yarns being held together by a ground; carding and polishing the technical front to increase the permeability of the fabric; printing an image on the technical front of the fabric, so that ink from the printing process penetrates to the ground of the fabric; brushing and napping the technical back, after the printing process, so that ink from the technical front is pulled through the ground to the technical back, so that a mirror image of the image from the technical front is formed on the technical back.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2018Date of Patent: June 4, 2019Assignee: ASHFORD TEXTILES, LLC.Inventors: Yuehua Allen Guo, Jack Burns

Publication number: 20170361258Abstract: Improvements to filtration and vessels such as for filtration and coalescing of gas streams are shown. A filter element with a partial treated region and untreated region such as providing different surface energies or other filtration characteristics are provided. Various keying arrangements for compatibility and /or rotational locking are shown between the filtration vessel, a tubular coalescing baffle, and/or filter element. The tubular coalescing baffle also may include non-louvered pore structure, which provides for more even flow in a two stage type filtration vessel to prevent premature exiting and reduction of flow velocities along the second stage, and/or may additionally or alternatively include drainage apertures such as drain slot formed along a gravitational bottom or otherwise to facilitate additional drainage of coalesced liquid as opposed to letting such liquid be forced through fluid velocity toward the open end of the tubular baffle.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 1, 2017Publication date: December 21, 2017Applicant: PECOFacet (US), Inc.Inventors: Daniel M. Cloud, Stephen Gregory Jeane, David Jack Burns

Patent number: 9744485Abstract: There is disclosed a liquid filter system that includes a liquid filter apparatus configured to self-clean without removal of the filter apparatus from the filter system. The filter apparatus uses both a filter media for filtering solids as well as a spin motion imparted to fluid being filtered so that centrifugal force can remove solids from the liquid being filtered. The liquid filter system also includes a gas pulse nozzle in fluid communication with the liquid filter apparatus and is configured to flow gas into the filter media to expel water and debris trapped in the filter media without removing the filter media from the filter system.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2014Date of Patent: August 29, 2017Assignee: PecoFacet (US), Inc.Inventors: David Jack Burns, Timothy L. Holmes, Jeremy Michael Stevens

Publication number: 20170120174Abstract: A filter formed essentially from a staple fiber is provided. A nonwoven staple fiber is compressed in to a mat or sheet of selected porosity. The mat or sheet does not include a binder or bicomponent fibers. The staple fibers may be heat treated. The sheet is formed into a selected geometric shape and the staple fibers are thermally fused to bind the staple fibers into a porous filter element. The preferred shape is a helically wound tube or plural sheets, each sheet being self-overlapped and compressed to overlap another sheet. Each sheet is preferably heated and compressed individually and the sheets may be selected to have different porosities and densities.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 27, 2016Publication date: May 4, 2017Applicant: PECOFacet (US), Inc.Inventors: Andrew Ray Dye, David Jack Burns, Johnny Glen Keeton

Patent number: 9610526Abstract: A single support core for a filter media assembly. The single support core includes a single longitudinal tube extending between a first end and a second end. A plurality of orifices are defined in the tube, the orifices align circumferentially along the longitudinal length of the tube. A first plurality of portions defined between the first end and an intermediate annular ring joint and a second plurality of portions defined between the intermediate annular ring joint and the second end. The orifices in each of the first portions and second portions are equidistance circumferentially from each other defining rings. The rings are equidistant longitudinally from each other in each of the portions and the rings are longitudinally spaced differentially in the adjacent portions. The plurality of orifices direct fluid flow through the tube to yield a high flow velocity in predetermined areas along the length of the filter assembly.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2015Date of Patent: April 4, 2017Assignee: PECOFacet (US), Inc.Inventor: David Jack Burns

Publication number: 20160023153Abstract: A filter apparatus, a pressure relief apparatus methods are provided. The filter apparatus includes a tubular hull having an inlet port and an outlet port. A tubesheet partition separates the tubular hull interior into a first stage portion and a second stage portion. A plurality of filter elements are mounted in annular guides. A pressure relief apparatus is configured to relieve pressure through at least one of the annular guides with the pressure relief apparatus in parallel fluid circuit with the filter elements. The pressure relief apparatus includes an elongated tube, a sealing plug, an end cap, a rod disposed within the elongated tube with one end of the rod coupled to the sealing plug and another end of the rod coupled to the end cap; and a spring disposed in the elongated tube between the sealing plug and the end cap.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 22, 2015Publication date: January 28, 2016Applicant: PECOFACET (US), INC.Inventor: David Jack Burns

Patent number: 8017258Abstract: Enhanced safety is provided in the event of an information handling system catastrophic battery failure by extending a flame container outward from the battery to vent flammable gases through holes having a quenching distance that retards transfer of flames from the battery. For example, telescoping cylinder sections disposed proximate the casing of a battery cell are forced outward as a telescoping assembly when pressure within the casing exceeds a predetermined safety threshold. The flame container vents flammable gases away from other cells of the battery and may direct the vented gases to the exterior of an information handling system housing or to the interior of the housing.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2010Date of Patent: September 13, 2011Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Jonathan Jordan, Jack Burns, James Davis
