Abstract: The torque-increasing device includes multiple rotating discs, rings, or rotors, each including embedded or affixed magnets. The discs are canted toward each other, thus passing closer to each during the first half of a rotation, and further apart during the second half of a rotation. As the adjacent magnets attract each other, the attractive force is split into two vectors: a vector that is perpendicular to an imaginary plane that divides the discs, and a torque vector that is parallel to the face of the rotors. Disruption of the attraction of the magnets on either the upper or lower half of the rotor, or a segment of the upper or lower half, unbalances the rotors and captures a torque.

Abstract: The torque augmentation device has two primary embodiments. The first embodiment is two rotors, the rotors including rings of permanent magnets. The two rotors are angled with respect to each other. The magnetic field is disrupted on the bottom half by a ferrous flux diversion plate. With the forces unbalanced between the upper and lower halves of the rotors, rotation will result, thus augmenting the torque production of any associated rotational device. The second embodiment uses a straight shaft, with a single central rotor, both sides of the rotor covered in magnets. In place of adjacent rotors, the second half of the magnets is placed on fixed plates, one on each side of the central rotor. The fixed plates are set at an angle with respect to the central rotor, creating the unbalanced forces that cause rotation.

Abstract: A paper board blank is formed into a tray having a double glued side wall construction for providing a desirable strength to the tray. A platen drives the blank through forming rails which fold the blank into a partially formed tray having bottom, end and side walls, and inside corner supports formed about the platen. After the platen is retracted, a first folding arm folds a top wall portion to a position generally parallel to the bottom panel. A second folding arm then folds end fold portions of outside corner supports into a passage formed between a compression plate and a fixed guide plate, wherein the fixed guide plate provides a guiding surface. The compression plate is then biased against each of the side fold portions for compressing the side fold portions against the side panels to form the tray.
