Publication number: 20050061619Abstract: The present invention provides a very simple and inexpensive device and system for mechanically detecting and, optionally ejecting non-standard bottles and other articles from a line composed of standard and non-standard bottles traveling on a conveyor. The device can be quickly adjusted as required to detect bottles based on various physical differences between the types of bottles such as diameter, buffer zones, neck diameters, shoulder heights, etc. The device is inexpensive, requires little space or maintenance and can be adapted to handle many types of non-standard bottles. It can also be used to sort articles based on those physical differences.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 20, 2004Publication date: March 24, 2005Inventor: Thomas Rutledge

Patent number: 4100761Abstract: A movable ice receptacle for use in a refrigeration apparatus having a refrigerated cabinet defining a space within which the receptacle is normally disposed and which is selectively closed by a movable closure. The receptacle is mounted for selective disposition in a rearward ice storage position and a forward ice access position. The mounting of the receptacle is such that, when the closure is moved to an open position, the receptacle is correspondingly repositioned forwardly from the storage position to the access position. The receptacle may be gravity biased toward the forward ice access position and urged against the bias thereof by structure associated both with the closure and the receptacle to move the receptacle to the rearward storage position as an incident of the closure being disposed in the space-closing position. The mounting structure may be arranged to swingably mount the receptacle for movement in an arc. The storage position may be at a level above the level of the access position.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 1976Date of Patent: July 18, 1978Assignee: Whirlpool CorporationInventors: William John Linstromberg, Charles Thomas Rutledge
