  • Patent number: 8343023
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing an outer box and a drawer for packaging purposes, and to a corresponding device for producing the outer box and drawer. A first machine produces the outer box, a second machine produces the drawer, and a shared main drive drives the devices of the first machine and the second machine. The first and second machines transform flat blanks into an outer box and a drawer respectively, by a series folding and welding steps.

  • Patent number: 8141051
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture to perform runtime trace filtering associated with application performance analysis are disclosed. A disclosed example method involves generating a first performance value based on first performance data associated with a first function of a first application process. A difference value is generated based on the first performance value and a historical performance value associated with the first function. The difference value is compared to a threshold value, and first trace data associated with execution of the first application process is collected based on the comparison of the difference value to the threshold value.

  • Publication number: 20110034678
    Abstract: The present invention provides large-scale methods for renaturation of proteins comprising adding a solution of denatured, chemically modified or reduced proteins to a refolding buffer containing sulfate derived from H2SO4 and/or MgSO4 in the presence of guanidine. The present invention further provides methods of isolating a refolded protein at a concentration of about 0.4 to 3.0 gm/L by using a hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) column.

  • Publication number: 20050216383
    Abstract: Telecommunications customers must frequently utilize the facilities of many different telecommunications service providers in order to transmit data from one location to another. When a telecommunications customer encounters a network problem, that customer usually must navigate a complicated web of service providers and equipment owners in order to receive meaningful technical assistance from a human technician. The present invention is designed and intended to facilitate human interactions for technical support and administrative tasks by associating customer, contract, circuit, equipment, key personnel, billing, and telco information in a database for efficient data presentation and information retrieval. Resolution of the logistical problem of tracking circuit information is achieved by organizing the information and displaying important data concurrently.

  • Patent number: 3980452
    Abstract: Heat is supplied to chemical reactions, especially reactions involving the cracking of hydrocarbons for producing gas, by the combustion of fuels with heated combustion air followed by a heat exchange extraction of sensible heat from the flue gases produced by the combustion for heating air for the combustion. The hot reaction product is at least partly air cooled and the resulting heated cooling air is passed at least partly through the air preheater before the air is used as heated combustion air.
