Patent number: 11084704Abstract: A control architecture for use with beverage product dispensers is provided. Instructions may be received at an interface module for performing one or more requested dispenser operations. The interface module may send the instructions to a dispense module. The dispense module may translate the instructions to predetermined commands associated with a dispenser. The one or more requested dispenser operations may then be performed based on the predetermined commands from the translated instructions.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2019Date of Patent: August 10, 2021Assignee: The Coca-Cola CompanyInventors: Davinder Sawhney, Christopher Paul Snowden

Publication number: 20150082243Abstract: A dispensing device is provided for providing a product categorization user interface from which a product may be selected. The dispensing device may display a menu of product categories in the user interface. A selection of one of the product categories may then be received from the menu. The dispensing device may then display a sub-menu corresponding to a selected one of the plurality of products category in the user interface. A selection of a product may then be received from the sub-menu on the dispensing device. An action request may then be received which corresponds to the selected one of the plurality of products. In response to the action request, the dispensing device may then execute an action (such as a dispensing action) associated with the selected one of the plurality of products from the sub-menu.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2014Publication date: March 19, 2015Inventors: Sydney Abram Taylor, Cynthia D. Jones, Jae Ho Cha, Samuel Thomas Lind, Christopher Paul Snowden, Scott Cuppari

Patent number: 4323524Abstract: Fibres are produced by centrifugally spinning a formaldehyde resin, e.g. a UF resin, plus catalyst and contacting the spun fibres with a stream of hot dry air to dry the fibres. Cold, humid air is fed to the spinning cup to inhibit premature drying of the resin. The rotation of the cup causes the cold humid air to be thrown out of the cup with the fibres entrained therein. This entrainment serves to retard drying of the fibres while they attenuate.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 1980Date of Patent: April 6, 1982Assignee: Imperial Chemical Industries LimitedInventor: Paul Snowden

Patent number: 4294783Abstract: Process and apparatus for centrifugally spinning a fibre-forming material, e.g. a urea-formaldehyde resin, in which the fibre-forming material is supplied in liquid form to the interior of a spinning cup wherein it is divided into separate streams which are led to the outlets of passages through the wall of the spinning cup.Type: GrantFiled: April 9, 1980Date of Patent: October 13, 1981Assignee: Imperial Chemical Industries, Inc.Inventor: Paul Snowden

Patent number: 4178336Abstract: Formaldehyde resin fibres, in particular urea formaldehyde resin fibres, are produced by introducing a liquid formaldehyde resin and a catalyst into a spinning cup in the presence of cold humid air which inhibits drying and reaction, centrifugally spinning fibres from the cup into the path of hot air currents, at between 50.degree. C. and 100.degree. C., which dry the fibres without curing them, and curing and chemically stabilizing the dry fibres by heating at above 100.degree. C. until they are insoluble in cold water.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 1978Date of Patent: December 11, 1979Assignee: Imperial Chemical Industries LimitedInventor: Paul Snowden

Patent number: 4129523Abstract: A catalyst containing metallic copper, especially a low temperature shift catalyst containing also zinc oxide, is made from a corresponding catalyst precursor by reduction in two stages. In the first stage a steam and/or CO.sub.2 -diluted reducing gas is used and in the second a more strongly reducing gas mixture such as ammonia synthesis gas or even 100% hydrogen. The resulting catalyst is substantially more active than one reduced according to previous one-stage steam-reduction practice and similar to catalyst made by the less convenient dry-reduction using nitrogen or natural gas as diluent.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 1976Date of Patent: December 12, 1978Assignee: Imperial Chemical Industries LimitedInventor: Paul Snowden
