Abstract: This disclosure provides a consolidated electric motor stator lamination for multiple enclosure types such that a single stator assembly can be used for different classifications of an electric motor. Each layer of the stator lamination includes external features that, when combined with the external features of the other layers in the lamination, can be adapted to conform the electric motor to one of a plurality of enclosure types. The external features include retaining features for one or more covers, fins, and a profile configured to accept cooling tubes. In various embodiments, a single consolidated stator lamination assembly can be adapted to provide a motor having at least two of an open-drip proof (ODP), a totally enclosed fan cooled (TEFC), or a totally enclosed water cooled (TEWC) enclosure classification.

Abstract: Provided is a chute apparatus for a dump body configured to easily transfer material from a dump body directly into a small cargo mover, such as a wheelbarrow. The chute apparatus comprises at least one side wing which may be rotatable with respect to a side wall of the dump body. The chute may further comprise a floor panel, which may be rotatable with respect to the floor of the dump body. When in working position (with side wings rotated in towards the center and the floor panel raised) and dump body titled into a raised position to unload the material, the raised floor panel lifts an exit point where the material is unloaded from the dump body, which allows the small cargo mover to be placed directly in line and preferably under the flow of material from the dump body.

Abstract: Isopipes for use in making sheet glass by a fusion process are provided which exhibit reduced sag. The isopipes are composed of a zircon refractory which has a mean creep rate (MCR) at 1180° C. and 250 psi and a 95 percent confidence band (CB) for said mean creep rate such that the CB to MCR ratio is less than 0.5, the MCR and the CB both being determined using a power law model. The zircon refractory can contain titania (TiO2) at a concentration greater than 0.2 wt % and less than 0.4 wt %. A concentration of titania in this range causes the zircon refractory to exhibit a lower mean creep rate than zircon refractories previously used to make isopipes. In addition, the variation in mean creep rate is also reduced which reduces the chances that the zircon refractory of a particular isopipe will have an abnormally high creep rate and thus exhibit unacceptable sag prematurely.

Abstract: A media storage device for use in self service terminals (SSTs) is described. The storage device comprises a media storage container 28 including flexible fingers 30 protruding into the interior of the container, and a media loading assembly 26 including a movable plate 44 which can be operated to transfer media from the loading assembly 26 to the container 28. The flexible fingers 30 serve to retain stored media in a compact and ordered arrangement, so improving storage efficiency. Embodiments of the invention may also include a scissor type arrangement of arms 54 in the loading assembly 26, arranged to increase the effective stroke length of the movable plate 44 without increasing the required depth of the loading assembly.
