  • Temperature probe
    Patent number: 9782925
    Abstract: The present invention includes a temperature probe and use thereof. The temperature probe is configured to obtain a temperature of a blow molding preform, especially a temperature of an inside surface of the blow molding preform. In this manner, effectiveness of heating the preform can be evaluated, the presence of one or more temperature gradients ascertained, and the blow molding process can be optimized for a given preform.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: October 10, 2017
    Assignee: PLASTIC TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
    Inventors: Jonathan Alan McGurk, Aaron Raphael Teitlebaum
  • Energy output measuring device for infrared heating device
    Patent number: 9234802
    Abstract: An energy output measuring device including a main body having a light reflecting exterior and a window portion formed in the main body and produced from infrared-reflecting glass. At least one visible light sensor is disposed adjacent the window. The energy output measuring device is configured to pass through a heating device. An energy output of the heating device is determined from measurements taken by the heating device.
