  • Publication number: 20240100797
    Abstract: A system for forming a pressware product from a web of a roll of material includes a positive mold, a negative mold, a heating element, an actuator, a force sensor, and a control system. The positive mold forms a top surface of the pressware product. The negative mold forms a bottom surface of the pressware product. The heating element is coupled to the positive mold or the negative mold. The actuator shifts the positive mold or the negative mold to cut and form the pressware product in a single stroke. The force sensor detects the forming force applied by the actuator, and the control system directs the actuator to adjust the forming force.

  • Patent number: 11918645
    Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition comprising at least two peptides of from 15 to 60 amino acids in length, selected from peptides comprising a sequence of at least 15 contiguous amino acids of one of the sequences shown in SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 4 or of a sequence having at least 80% identity to one of the sequences shown in SEQ ID NOs: to 4, wherein each peptide comprises at least one CD8+ T-cell epitope and/or at least one CD4+ T-cell epitope and wherein each peptide elicits a response in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from at least one chronically infected HBV individual in an 10 in vitroassay.

  • Patent number: 11919270
    Abstract: A system for forming a pressware product comprises rollers, a scoring tool, a scoring station actuator, a forming tool, and a forming station actuator. The rollers pull the web along a path having an angle. The scoring tool receives the material from the rollers and includes a vertically shiftable scoring punch with an edge that extends about an outline of the pressware product and a striker plate. The scoring station actuator shifts the scoring tool to form a slot in the web. The forming tool receives the scored web and includes a vertically shiftable positive mold assembly and negative mold assembly. The forming station actuator shifts the positive mold assembly to press against the web and form the pressware product.

  • Patent number: 10872145
    Abstract: A secure processor-based enclave is used to protect to one or more software defined control functions or elements in a cloud environment, such as a hyperconverged cloud that includes compute nodes. One or more secure enclave(s) are instantiated within the environment. A control plane, such as an NFV-based control plane element, is hosted within the secure enclave, which itself is instantiated within may be virtualized or containerized. The control plane has an associated data plane, whose elements are across one or more of the compute nodes. One or more APIs provide connectivity between the control plane, and the various data plane elements that are located external to the secure enclave. The NFV-based control plane provides configuration information (e.g., a routing table) to the distributed data plane through the APIs. By hosting the control plane securely using in-memory workload protection, the approach insures integrity at load time, and it protects against compromise in real-time, e.g.

  • Patent number: 4853112
    Abstract: Apparatus for separating heavy from light constituents in coarse comminuted municipal waste having a relatively small inlet duct connecting to a much larger air classifying chamber. A by-pass duct is disposed alongside the chamber, and connects thereto at its upstream and at its downstream end. Dameprs are provided to adjust the velocity of airflow through the chamber and by-pass duct depending upon the density of the light weight constituents.
