  • Patent number: 10905278
    Abstract: Systems to allow temperature control more precise and accurate than the current state of the art for consumer products that heat liquids such as, without limitation, coffee makers, tea makers, electric kettles and espresso machines. One feature of such systems may include the ability to calibrate the system with reference to a known temperature point. Another feature of such system may allow reduction in the rate of water heating to allow the temperature of the water to approach a target temperature in a gradual manner.

  • Patent number: 7449085
    Abstract: Absorbent paper products, such as paper towels, are disclosed which have a combination of high absorbent capacity and a moderate to low rate of absorbency for hand protection. These properties can be produced, for example, using a throughdried basesheet, such as an uncreped throughdried sheet, in which at least one surface of which has been printed with a patterned moisture barrier coating and creped. The presence of the moisture barrier coating on the surface retards the absorbent rate for that side of the sheet while allowing a significant amount of liquid to pass through to the center of the sheet.

  • Patent number: 6887350
    Abstract: A tissue product containing a multi-layered paper web that has at least one outer layer formed from a blend of pulp fibers and synthetic fibers is provided. A polymer latex is also applied to the outer layer of the tissue product. It is believed that the polymer latex and synthetic fibers can fuse together to have a synergistic effect on the strength of the tissue product. In addition, the resulting tissue product can be soft and produce low levels of lint and slough.
