Patent number: 9193440Abstract: A variable camber system for an aircraft may include a variable camber trim unit (VCTU) positioned between an inboard device and an outboard device. The inboard device and the outboard device may be mounted to at least one of a leading edge and a trailing edge of a wing. The VCTU may include a speed sum gearbox having an inboard shaft coupled to the inboard device and an outboard shaft coupled to the outboard device. The VCTU may additionally include a VCTU electric motor engaged to the speed sum gearbox. The VCTU electric motor may be selectively operable in conjunction with the speed sum gearbox to rotate the outboard shaft independent of the inboard shaft in a manner causing the outboard device to be actuated independent of the inboard device.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2013Date of Patent: November 24, 2015Assignee: The Boeing CompanyInventors: Matthew A. Moser, Michael R. Finn, Mark J. Gardner, Mark S. Good, Sarah A. Jones

Patent number: 7211283Abstract: A food product that includes a casing of a gelatin-free, water-based, set hydrocolloid gel that forms an enclosure, and at least one solid, liquid, soft or particulate center enclosed by the casing. The casing is made of a carageenan, alginate, agarose, gellan gum, pectin or cellulose compound, and the food product can withstand changes in temperature. Also, a process for the production of such a food product, wherein a liquid hydrocolloid mass is partially set and a hard, liquid, soft or particulate center is injected therein with the final completing or the setting of the hydrocolloid mass providing the encapsulation of the center.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2003Date of Patent: May 1, 2007Assignee: Nestec S.A.Inventors: Adrienne Sarah Jones, Mei Horng Ong, Cristiana Fernanda Soldani

Publication number: 20050173501Abstract: Using current technology, the 2 in 1 bread will be packaged as breads are currently packaged, in various weights however, the two kinds of bread will be separated in the package by a thin plastic divider. Both ends of the package will be open and secured by a twist tie, thus giving the public easy access to both ends. This gives the public access to their choice of bread enclosed in the package, instead of buying two or more loaves. This provides the public with an economical means of meeting their individual tastes and provides the public with more variety.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 9, 2004Publication date: August 11, 2005Inventor: Sarah Jones
