Publication number: 20240378778Abstract: Systems, computing platforms, methods, and storage media for enabling application of design styles to a motion design are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: obtain a design application output file for use with a motion graphics application; provide a user interface associated with the motion graphics application; and in response to selection of one of the plurality of user interface components, output style application instructions to apply the style attributes associated with the selected user interface component to a motion graphics project. Exemplary implementations, which may be implemented as a motion graphics application plugin, may facilitate or automate the transfer of style attributes from a designer's work in a design application to a developer's work in a motion graphics application.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 12, 2023Publication date: November 14, 2024Inventors: Matthew Jarvis WALL, Sean William SULLVAN, Mark BROUWER, Richard LALANCETTE

Patent number: 11020911Abstract: A new method for fully automatically manufacturing a fluid container with a pressure unit is described, which pressure unit is mounted in a fluid container. In a station the high-pressure container of the pressure unit is mounted with the closure and the bottom part and is clamped at the upper and lower ends by clamping means and is rotated by rotating means associated with the clamping means. The rotating pressure unit is welded by first laser means and by second laser means, whereas the laser beam of the first laser means being directed to a first joint area of the bottom part of the pressure unit with the container, and the laser beam of the second laser means being directed to a second joint area of the bottom part of the pressure unit with the container, which first and second joint area are separated at a distance to each other.Type: GrantFiled: November 11, 2016Date of Patent: June 1, 2021Assignee: AIROPACK TECHNOLOGY GROUP B.V.Inventors: Mark Brouwer, Phil Regan

Patent number: 10542814Abstract: A new lip balm applicator comprises an upper portion and a lower portion that are interengageably connected to one another to define the applicator, and a support assembly for supporting a solidified lip balm material within the applicator. The support assembly comprises supporting ribs formed on an inner surface of the lower portion and a lower opening having a closing lid, whereby the solidified lip balm material circumvents at least part of the supporting ribs. A novel method for manufacturing the lip balm applicator comprises interengaging the upper and lower portions of the lip balm applicator and pouring a liquefied lip balm material into the lower opening until at least part of the projecting supporting ribs are covered by the liquefied balm material and solidified.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2016Date of Patent: January 28, 2020Assignee: AIROSOLUTIONS NVInventors: Quint Kelders, Mark Brouwer, Mervin Cleij

Patent number: 5961238Abstract: A container for a free-flowing product, in particular a correcting fluid, has an opening provided with a removable closure cap with an integrated brush-shaped applicator. A sleeve-shaped stripper is positioned in the opening and includes stripping strips whose ends are elastically supported against each other and at least partially close the open cross section of the stripper. Product is perfectly dosed from the container even over a long time and losses of the volatile fraction of the product in the container are largely avoided when opening the container and removing product therefrom, via a brush-shaped applicator provided in the area of its stem with a continuous notch in which the free ends of the stripping strips are engaged when the closure cap is installed on the container.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 1997Date of Patent: October 5, 1999Assignee: Henkel Kommanditgesellschaft auf AktienInventors: Marco de Bruin, Mark Brouwer

Patent number: 5936879Abstract: A programming or function-setting cell for a field programmable gate array utilizes ferroelectric capacitors connected to the nodes of a latch circuit to retain charge representing the state of the cell so that, following a power loss or a specific event upset, the programming information held by the latch circuit may be reinstated. The latch circuit comprises a pair of inverters having their inputs and outputs cross-coupled by way of respective switching transistors, and the capacitors are connected between the nodes and a common plate conductor normally held at a potential intermediate the supply potentials for the inverters.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 1997Date of Patent: August 10, 1999Assignee: Mitel Semiconductor LimitedInventors: Mark Brouwer, John Kerr
