Patent number: 11530067Abstract: A method for printing and applying labels comprises printing indicia on a first label using a printer to form a first printed label and holding the first printed label in a holding tray. The method includes moving an arm from an original position to a first position to collect the first printed label from the holding tray, and rotating the arm in a first direction to move the first printed label towards a substrate. The method comprises moistening the first printed label to activate a dissolvable liner of the first printed label. The method includes using the arm to apply the moistened first printed label to the substrate. The arm is rotated in a second direction away from the substrate. The printer prints a second label before the arm returns to the original position to collect the second label from the holding tray.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2019Date of Patent: December 20, 2022Assignee: Ward-Kraft, Inc.Inventors: Jesse Crum, Young Min Yoo, Randy Zimmerman, Doug Defebaugh, Roger Kraft

Patent number: 10086599Abstract: A label peeler system includes a first outer bracket having a first angled surface and a second outer bracket having a second angled surface. The label peeler system comprises a first movable bracket pivotably coupled to the first outer bracket and a second movable bracket pivotably coupled to the second outer bracket. A peel bar is secured to the first angled surface and the second angled surface, and a peel roller is rotatably disposed above the peel bar. A first roller is rotatably coupled to the first outer bracket and the second outer bracket. A second roller is rotatably coupled to the first movable bracket and the second movable bracket. The first roller and the second roller are configured to collectively pull the liner away from the label after the label is peeled by the peel bar.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2017Date of Patent: October 2, 2018Assignee: WARD KRAFT, INC.Inventors: Don Park, Randy Zimmerman

Patent number: 9855810Abstract: Energy storing suspension components having an end configured to include an eye are disclosed in combinations with bushings for use in suspension systems for wheeled vehicles and trailers. The energy storing suspension components include an axle seat portion, an end, and a limb extending between the axle seat portion and the end. The limb includes a first taper wherein the limb decreases in width as the limb extends toward the end, a second taper wherein the limb decreases in thickness as the limb extends toward the end, wherein along the limb there is at least a portion where both the first taper and second taper are present, and a third taper that is further from the axle seat portion than the first taper and wherein the limb increases in width as the limb extends toward the end.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2017Date of Patent: January 2, 2018Assignee: Hendrickson USA, L.L.C.Inventors: Andrew X. Rarey, Randy Zimmerman, Carmen D. Cardillo

Patent number: 8208314Abstract: Integrated circuits with sequential access memory cells are provided. A sequential access memory cell may include an inverter-like circuit, an inverter, a preset transistor, an access transistor, and a read circuit. The inverter-like circuit and the inverter are cross-coupled to form a bi-stable latch that is powered by a positive power supply line and that has first and second storage nodes. The preset transistor may be connected between the positive power supply line and the first storage node. The inverter-like circuit may include a transistor in its pull-down path. The preset transistor is enabled while the transistor is disabled to write a “1” at the first storage node. The access transistor may be used to write a “0” into the cell. The read circuit may be connected to the second storage node to read data from the cell without inducing a voltage rise at the second storage node.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2010Date of Patent: June 26, 2012Assignee: Aptina Imaging CorporationInventor: Randy Zimmerman
