  • Publication number: 20140092171
    Abstract: A micro-fluid ejection head has an ejection chip to expel fluid. It connects to a laminate construct. The construct has vertically configured wiring layers interspersed with non-conductive layers, such as carbon fiber layers. An upper of the wiring layers electrically connects to the ejection chip. The upper layer may also support a planar undersurface of the chip directly on a surface or in a recessed pocket. The two can connect with a die bond, such as one having silica or boron nitride. Fluid connections exist between ink feed slots of the chip and the laminate construct. A silicon tile or other material may also fluidly interconnect with the two. A plastic manifold optionally supports the laminate construct and may fluidly connect to it. The wiring layers of the laminate contemplate ground, power, and various bond pads. Other construct layers contemplate prepreg or core FR4 layers.

  • Patent number: 8651279
    Abstract: A container system is described. In one or more implementations, the container system comprises a lower container for receiving a first food component (or components) and an upper container assembly for receiving a second food component (or components) so that the second food component is separated from the first food component. The upper container assembly is configured for engagement with the lower container and is operable to be at least partially opened while the upper container assembly is engaged with the lower container to introduce the second food component into the lower container with the first food component. In one or more embodiments, a pull tab is coupled to the upper container assembly. The pull tab is configured to be pulled while the upper container assembly is engaged with the lower container to at least partially open the upper container assembly.

  • Publication number: 20130341295
    Abstract: A product vertical storage rack is provided for storing generally cylindrical shaped products, such as wine, in a generally horizontal orientation. The rack includes three parallel spaced sets of longitudinal continuous support elements defining support surfaces, each having a width to longitudinally accommodate one or more products of a pre-determined length. The sets of support elements are oriented such that the second and third sets of support elements intersect and engage the first set of support elements at spaced intervals to produce a lattice structure defining a plurality of multiple cylinder receiving regular hexagon prism shaped openings. A preferred embodiment is configured to hold 19 bottles in each regular hexagon prism shaped opening.
