  • Patent number: 8047634
    Abstract: An inkjet external ink manifold is provided that allows for use of a jet stack that does not internally contain ink manifolds. The external ink manifold has a manifold body that includes one or more ink manifold chambers and includes ports arranged to connect the chambers to one or more ink reservoirs. The external ink manifold further includes an adhesive layer overlying and sealing the ink manifold chambers. The adhesive layer includes a plurality of ports arranged to connect the external ink manifold chambers to the jet stack.

  • Publication number: 20090026648
    Abstract: A variegated building product solution includes a process for creating variegated building products through the introduction of color infused pellets with base pellets to create an aggregate, non-uniformly mixed pellet mixture as feed material for a molding process. In one aspect, the process involves the introduction of a set of color infused pellets into the stream of feed material pellets at preselected intervals. The feed material pellets includes color of a first hue, and the set of color infused pellets possess at least a second hue at variance from the first hue, such that the combined pellets form the aggregate, non-uniformly mixed pellet mixture. According to the process, the aggregate pellet mixture is moved into a molding chamber for molding of the aggregate pellet mixture into a variegated building product.

  • Patent number: 5179975
    Abstract: Disclosed is a dynamic, non-recycling pumping system for combining at least one chemical agent with a liquid carrier to produce a mixture for spraying on a target. Included in the subject device is a pump having an adjustable pressurized output line and an adjustable vacuum containing primary suction input line. A carrier reservoir supplies the primary suction line with the carrier that is mixed with a variable amount of chemical agent added through a secondary suction line connected to the primary suction line.
