Patent number: 11596981Abstract: A modular star system for grading, cleaning, and transporting produce includes opposing, first and second hub modules with opposing, tapered surfaces, and plural finger modules separated by the first and second hub modules. Each finger module has finger members that are color-coded and the finger module and first and second hub modules are disposed on a rotatable shaft. Outer surfaces of either of the finger or hub modules are color-coded, and are substantially perpendicular to the long axis of the shaft. There is also a method of using the modular star system for grading, cleaning, and transporting produce.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2021Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: NW PolymersInventor: James A.

Patent number: 11358245Abstract: A T-slot mounting and alignment system for non-rigidly mounting a workpiece or fixture to a work-piece positioner table, welding positioner table or machine tool table having one of more T-slots includes a T-dog, a dog nut, at least one bolt, and at least one fastener. The at least one fastener fastens the T-dog to the workpiece or fixture, and a dog stem of the T-dog extends through a guide slot in the workpiece or fixture and into the T-slot in the table. The dog nut mates with the at least one bolt and tightens to engage a distal end of the dog stem, wherein clearance is provided in the assembled structures to prevent the workpiece or fixture from being tightly clamped against the table. Consequently, compensation for misalignments is possible during setup.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2020Date of Patent: June 14, 2022Inventors: Justin Siddle, James Tuttle, Nicholas Sinno

Publication number: 20140067686Abstract: Content is pre-downloaded to a client device used by user. The pre-downloaded content is received and stored at the client device and has an access restriction to prevent the user from consuming the pre-downloaded content. The client device interacts with the user to facilitate purchase transactions for the pre-downloaded content. After the pre-downloaded content is purchased, the client device removes the access restriction to allow the user to consume the pre-downloaded content on the client device. Pre-downloading digital content allows the user, for example, to access the pre-downloaded content without needing to download the content at the time of purchase.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2012Publication date: March 6, 2014Applicant: GOOGLE INC.Inventors: Thomas James Tuttle, Zhen Elizabeth Fong-Jones

Patent number: 8516981Abstract: A cam phaser assembly may include a stator assembly, a rotor assembly, and a lock assembly. The stator assembly may be rotationally driven by an engine crankshaft. The rotor assembly may be engaged with the stator assembly and fixed for rotation with an engine camshaft. The rotor assembly may include a radially extending vane located within a recess of the stator assembly to define advance and retard chambers receiving pressurized fluid to rotationally displace the rotor assembly. The lock assembly may be engaged with the stator assembly and the rotor assembly during first and second operating conditions. The lock assembly may include a lock pin mechanically securing the rotor assembly in a rotationally advanced position relative to the stator assembly during the first operating condition and mechanically securing the rotor assembly in a rotationally retarded position relative to the stator assembly during the second operating condition.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2009Date of Patent: August 27, 2013Inventors: Robert Lionel Jacques, James Tuttle

Patent number: 4325116Abstract: A computer system having two processors and storage where storage is segmented so as to permit simultaneous access by the two processors with the address path of one processor being limited to a particular segment of storage so as to eliminate contention in other segments. One processor can address all segments of storage and place processed data into and retrieve data from the segment of storage accessible by the other processor. This eliminates the need for cycle stealing because the other processor can access processed data or store data while the one processor simultaneously accesses another segment of storage. Storage contention is resolved on the basis of addressing. If both processors are simultaneously trying to address the same segment of storage, the processor which can address all segments of storage is granted the access.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 1979Date of Patent: April 13, 1982Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Roger H. Kranz, Edwin J. de Araujo Pinheiro, James A. Tuttle
