  • Patent number: 10621719
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and processes for inspecting and evaluating qualities of printed regions on substrates, wherein the systems and methods may be configured to eliminate subjective aspects relating to human involvement in performing visual checks when evaluating print quality. The systems may include one or more communication networks connecting one or more sensors with an analyzer. In operation, ink is applied to a substrate to create at least one printed region, and the sensors are configured to inspect the printed region. The sensors may be configured to communicate measurements and/or images to the analyzer. And the analyzer may then calculate one or more quality subscores based on respective measurements and/or images. In turn, a full print quality score may be calculated based on one or more of the quality subscores. The analyzer may then execute a control action based on the full print quality score.

  • Patent number: 9334604
    Abstract: An iron includes a housing having a sole plate on a base end thereof and a water reservoir therein, for receiving water therein. A water fill valve assembly is in fluid communication with the reservoir. The valve assembly includes a one way check valve having an open first end, an opposing expandable second end proximate the water reservoir, and a valve body extending therebetween. The second end of the check valve is normally in a first constricted configuration, substantially preventing water within the water reservoir from freely exiting therethrough, and is expandable by water poured into the open first end of the valve and flowing to the second end, such that the poured-in water substantially freely flows therethrough and into the water reservoir. The second end of the check valve returns to the first configuration after the poured in water has passed therethrough.
