Publication number: 20240140664Abstract: A container having a base and a lid is provided. The lid may be rotatable about a hinge from a closed configuration to an open configuration and may be secured, via one or more latching assemblies. The latch assembly may comprise a latch body, a locking member, a biasing member, and an activating member. The lid may have a handle that has a stowed and a carry position, where the handle may be maintained in the stowed position until acted upon by a first force greater than a threshold force to move the handle from the stowed position to the carry position. Similarly, when in the carry position, the handle may be maintained in the carry position until acted upon by a second force greater than the threshold force to move the handle from the carry position to the stowed position.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 12, 2024Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Mark D. Miller, Nicholas James Lombardi, Steven M. Scott, Elizabeth Ruchte, Andrew J. Winterhalter, Liza Morris

Publication number: 20240025621Abstract: An insulating container can be configured to retain a volume of at least 1800 cubic centimeters that includes an outer shell and an inner shell. The outer shell and inner shell may be integrally joined together to form an insulated double wall structure with a sealed vacuum cavity between the two shells. A compressible support member may be placed to between a bottom wall of the outer shell and a bottom wall of the inner shell to help form a planar bottom wall of the inner shell when the vacuum cavity is formed.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 19, 2022Publication date: January 25, 2024Inventors: Dustin R.

Patent number: 10478525Abstract: A demineralized bone matrix is produced by a process in which a bone body is placed in a first processing solution comprising an acid to demineralize the bone body. The bone body is periodically removed from the first solution at specific time intervals to perform at least one test, such as a compression test, on a mechanical property of the bone body. When the test yields a desired result, the bone body is exposed to a second processing solution that is less acidic than the first, thus minimizing the exposure of the bone body to the harsh acidic conditions of the demineralization phase of the process.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2015Date of Patent: November 19, 2019Assignee: BACTERIN INTERNATIONAL, INC.Inventors: Nancy J. Shelby, Steven M. Scott, Benjamin P. Luchsinger, Gregory A. Juda, Kelly R. Kirker, Darrel L. Holmes, Jesus Hernandez

Patent number: 5727220Abstract: A method and system for presenting a document at a presentation device utilizing a presentation data stream having a continuous ordered stream of uniquely identified data objects and associated elements which specify format and presentation parameters for each of those data objects. The data stream contains a plurality of documents, including a resource document and a presentation document, which each comprise a collection of the uniquely identified data objects and associated elements. A save object command structure is defined within a resource document within the presentation data stream. Within the save object command structure, a particular data object is identified. In response to receipt of the save object command structure at the presentation device, the particular data object is stored within storage media. Thereafter, an include saved object command structure is defined within a diverse presentation document within a presentation data stream.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 1995Date of Patent: March 10, 1998Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Reinhard H. Hohensee, David E. Stone, Ronald D. Parrish, Dwight R. Palmer, Steven M. Scott, Brian G. Platte

Patent number: 5673209Abstract: A data compression and decompression technique compresses a binary stream of digital data into compressed form and decompresses a compressed data stream into decompressed form without any loss of fidelity. The techniques require very little processing time to permit compression and decompression of digital data quickly. Once the digital data is compressed into compressed form, the amount of memory required to store the compressed digital data is much less than the amount of memory required to store the corresponding data in uncompressed form.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 1995Date of Patent: September 30, 1997Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Ronald L. Heiney, Keith E. Duvall, Anthony F. Stuart, Claude A. Bugg, Gregory S. Felderman, Steven M. Scott

Patent number: 5563625Abstract: A method of reversing all of the pixels in an image word uses recursive steps of shifting the image word a varying, predetermined number of spaces, followed by filtering the shifted and unshifted words through a varying, predetermined mask. The number of cycles necessary to reverse an image word having 2.sup.n pixels is n cycles, plus one additional shifting step. This method of reversing a single image word is used to generate the mirror image of an input image. This image word reversal method is also useful for rotating an image word 180 degrees about an axis through its center.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 1994Date of Patent: October 8, 1996Assignee: IBM CorporationInventor: Steven M.

Patent number: 5563987Abstract: Disclosed is a process and apparatus for pagemap memory representation in RISC controlled printers. The technique disclosed optimizes pagemaps in memory to minimize losses in processor efficiency of processors having data caches, TLB's and virtual memory, due to unavailability of desired data in first the data cache, then the random access memory. The technique is particularly applicable to RISC processors having a plurality of table lookaside buffers, each containing the address of a frame or page of memory, each frame comprising a finite number of bytes of data. This is accomplished by dividing the pagemap into one dimensional array of swaths of scans, each swath containing a two dimensional array of words in column major order. Each of said swaths having a height measured in scans which is a function of frame size, data cache line size and set associativity of the data cache, but which is an integral multiple of the number of words in a data cache line.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 1994Date of Patent: October 8, 1996Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventor: Steven M.
