  • Hail producing machine
    Patent number: 10119739
    Abstract: A hail producing machine includes at least one diffuser for mixing water and carbon dioxide. At least one heat exchanger is in flow communication with the diffuser for receiving the mixture. A refrigeration unit freezes the mixture to form an ice rod in the heat exchanger. The ice rod is ejected from the heat exchanger and is converted into hail stones by a molding station downstream from the heat exchanger.

  • Magnetic bracelet hood clasp
    Patent number: 7849569
    Abstract: A clasp for an ornamental object comprising a base, a top, and a link. The link engages the base. The engagement occurs where at least one projection and an aperture from the link respectively engage at least one cavity and a post from the base. The engagement between the base and top is further secured by moving the top and the base proximal each other such that the link is positioned between the two. Magnetic force is used to position the top and base proximal each other.

  • Method of making a jewelry ring in a vertical mold
    Patent number: 6467526
    Abstract: A method of molding a jewelry ring having a beveled or rounded inner diameter and a hollow portion in a vertical mold comprises utilizing a multi-piece plug and a soluble insert in a mold to define a mold cavity in the desired shape of the ring or a portion of the ring. A molten material is introduced into the mold cavity and upon hardening forms a ring replica which is removed from the mold by first removing the formed ring replica from the mold halves and then removing the ring replica from the multi-piece plug by separating the multi-piece plug into its individual pieces. The ring replica can be used to form jewelry rings by investment casting.
