  • Publication number: 20150121807
    Abstract: A method and system for injecting fluid into a sealed container that contains a consumable product is provided. The container is filled with a consumable product and then sealed with a closure. A fluid is injected through the closure into the container cavity after filling and sealing. The fluid increases the internal pressure of the container and scavenges oxygen in the container.

  • Patent number: 5090948
    Abstract: A power transmission (10) chain-belt (32) is disclosed that is especially aptable for connecting the pulleys (12, 14) of a pulley transmission (10). The chain-belt (32) has a plurality of interleaved sets (34) of links (36and each set (34) has a plurality of transversely arranged links (36). Pivot means (40) join adjacent sets (34) of links (36) to form an endless loop. At least one toe (42A, 42B) extends from each link (36) in at least some sets (34) of links. At least the toes (42A, 42) on adjacent links (36) are in opposed relationship and define a passageway (80). A plurality of load blocks (50) are connected to the links (36). The load blocks (50) are positioned in the passageway (80) defined by the toes (42A, 42B). Each load block (50) has edge surfaces (88) for connecting the pulleys (12, 14 ) of the transmission (10). A notch (90) is positioned on each side of the load blocks (50) on the surface of the load blocks (50) that is adjacent the links (36).
