Patent number: 11918023Abstract: A bean roasting system includes a roasting chamber, a blower, a variable diverter and a controller. The roasting chamber, the blower and the variable diverter each is disposed at least partially within a recirculating gas flow path. The blower is configured to provide a flow stream of gas through the recirculating gas flow path. The variable diverter is configured to split the gas flow path into at least two flow paths including a treated flow path and a bypass flow path. The treated flow path includes a series arrangement of a gas heater and a catalytic converter. The variable diverter is configured to control a percentage of a flow stream of gas that is diverted into the bypass flow path. The controller is configured to activate different predetermined operating modes for the bean roasting system by controlling a state of the variable diverter and a state of the heater.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2019Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Bellwether Coffee Co.Inventors: John Sandhu, Arno Holschuh, Ricardo Lopez, Jeremiah Peevyhouse, Peter Schmehl, Neil Sandhu, Jeff Wyatt, Mose O'Griffin, Andrew Damele, Michael Shawver

Patent number: 11745054Abstract: An exercise device is described. An exercise device includes a body, the body having a top, a bottom, a first end located at one edge of the body, a second end located at an opposite edge of the body, and first and second sides extending between the first and second ends; one or more wheels; and an energy storage device applying resistive and restoring force to the one or more wheels. Optionally, a shaft can be present that rotationally locks two or more of the wheels.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2020Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Inventors: Jessica Mills, Soren Mills, Jennifer O'Griffin, Mose O'Griffin, Andrew Sebastian, Jonathan Thomas Johnson

Patent number: 11712601Abstract: An exercise device is described which includes a platform having a first end and a second end opposite the first end; first and second wheels, wherein the first wheel is positioned proximate the first end and the second wheel is positioned proximate the second end and the first and second wheels are configured to roll across a surface as the exercise device is displaced along the surface; a first motor configured to apply a first torque to the first wheel where the magnitude of the first torque is related to the distance of the exercise device from a zero position and the direction of the first torque urges movement of the exercise device toward the zero position. Versions are also described with more wheels and more motors.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2021Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Inventors: Jessica Mills, Soren Mills, Stephen Bradford, Tylor Garland, Jakub Waligorski, Pongnut Kranikachul, Naia Simon, Samantha Halem, Jennifer O'Griffin, Mose O'Griffin, Andrew Sebastian, Jonathan Thomas Johnson

Patent number: 11510432Abstract: A bean roasting system includes a roasting drum, an agitator, and a door. The roasting drum has an inside surface extending from a back end to a front end. The agitator has blades mounted to an axial shaft. The axial shaft has an anterior end portion. The door is mounted rotationally relative to the roasting drum and includes a glass plate and a bearing assembly. The glass plate provides visual access to contents inside the roasting drum when the door is closed. The bearing assembly includes an outer housing and an inner bearing. The outer housing is mounted to the glass plate. The inner bearing defines a receiving hole that receives and supports the anterior end portion of the axial shaft when the door closed.Type: GrantFiled: April 9, 2021Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: Bellwether Coffee Co.Inventors: John Sandhu, Arno Holschuh, Ricardo Lopez, Jeremiah Peevyhouse, Peter Schmehl, Neil Sandhu, Jeff Wyatt, Mose O'Griffin, Andrew Damele, Michael Shawver
