Publication number: 20080012455Abstract: A tool cabinet including an upper cover, a bottom board, a case body and a shelf accessory. The case body includes rotatably interconnected case boards, which are foldable with each other. The upper cover and the bottom board are loosely rabbetted into the case body. Without disconnecting each case board, each case board can be folded only by pulling out the pin in the upper cover, turning over the upper cover, then taking out the shelf and the upright column, releasing the block rabbeting, and folding the case boards. It is done after the shelf and the upright column are placed into a predetermined space of the right board and the back board during the folding process. It is very simple and convenient. Hence, it is convenient to carry the tool cabinet after it is folded. In another embodiment, a tool cabinet is also constructed with hinged panels and doors that after assembly can be easily folded into a compact unit for storage or shipping.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 6, 2007Publication date: January 17, 2008Applicant: JINHUA ZHENFEI TOOLS CO., LTD.Inventor: YING ZHENG

Patent number: 7060315Abstract: The aroma-improving agent is present with the aroma-containing component, such as chocolate, cocoa, tea or coffee, in an amount effective to chemically interact with aroma compounds to form an improved aroma-containing component which (a) enhance a significant portion of one or more of the desirable flavor or sensory characteristics of the aroma in the aroma-containing component, or (b) reduces one or more non-desirable flavor and sensory characteristics. The aroma-improving agent preferably is a nucleophile that contains sulfur or nitrogen, such as sulfur dioxide, sulfites, substances that contain or generate sulfite, thiols, amines or amino acids.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2003Date of Patent: June 13, 2006Assignee: Nestec S.A.Inventors: Ying Zheng, Anthony Klueppel, Pu-Sheng Cheng, Christian Milo, Rachid Rahmani

Patent number: 7056545Abstract: A process for stabilizing an aroma-providing component such as coffee aroma against loss or degradation of desirable flavor or sensory characteristics of its aroma during storage. The aroma-providing component is associated with a stabilizing agent in an amount effective to chemically interact with undesirable compounds to form a stabilized aroma-providing component which (a) retains a significant portion of one or more of the desirable flavor or sensory characteristics of the aroma in the aroma-containing component during storage, or (b) reduces off flavor generation during storage of the aroma-providing component. The stabilizing agent preferably is a nucleophile that contains sulfur or nitrogen, such as sulfur dioxide, sulfites, compounds that contain or generate thiols, amines or amino acids, cysteine, gluathione or an enzyme. The stabilized aroma-providing component retains the desirable flavor and sensory characteristics of the aroma for a time period of at least six months to one year or longer.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2003Date of Patent: June 6, 2006Assignee: Nestec S.A.Inventors: Ying Zheng, Pu-Sheng Cheng, Christian Milo

Patent number: 7056546Abstract: A process for stabilizing an aroma-providing component such as coffee aroma against loss or degradation of its flavor or sensory characteristics by associating the aroma-providing component with a stabilizing agent in an amount effective to reduce or prevent the loss or degradation of the flavor or sensory characteristics of the component and form a stabilized aroma-providing component followed by removing the stabilizing agent from the stabilized coffee aroma prior to packaging for storage or prior to adding the stabilized coffee aroma to a food or beverage product. The resulting stabilized aroma-providing component is essentially free of the stabilizing agent and may be incorporated into a food or beverage product with the initial flavor or sensory characteristics of the stabilized component being retained for a time period of at least two months during storage of the food or beverage product.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2003Date of Patent: June 6, 2006Assignee: Nestec S.A.Inventors: Ying Zheng, Christian Milo, Pu-Sheng Cheng, Rachid Rahmani, Wenjie Hu

Publication number: 20060062770Abstract: A method assay for rapidly and reproducibly generating hair follicles from dissociated epithelial and mesenchymal cells is disclosed. The method serves both as a tool for measuring the trichogenic (i.e., hair growth-inducing) property of cells and for studying the mechanisms dissociated cells employ to assemble an organ. In a method of this application dissociated cells, isolated from newborn mouse skin, are injected into adult mouse truncal skin, hair follicles develop. This process involves the aggregation of epithelial cells to form clusters which are sculpted by apoptosis to generate “infundibular cysts”. From the “infundibular cysts” hair germs form followed by follicular buds and then pegs which grow asymmetrically to differentiate into cycling mature pilosebaceous structures. Using various techniques, exposure of the “infundibular cysts” by puncturing, piercing, or scratching the skin and, in an approach, covering the exposed cysts with a wound dressing material produced egressing hair follicles.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 15, 2005Publication date: March 23, 2006Applicant: Aderans Research Institute, Inc.Inventors: Ying Zheng, Xiaobing Du, Wei Wang, Marylene Boucher, Satish Parimoo, Kurt Stenn

Patent number: 6887386Abstract: A continuous Liquid-Solids Circulating Fluidized Bed (LSCFB) preferably for use as an ion exchanger consists of two fluidized bed columns, a fluidized bed adsorber (downer) operating in conventional fluidized bed mode for adsorption of ions of interest and a fluidized bed riser for desorption of ions (operating as a riser fluidized bed) to provide regenerated particles. Ion exchange particles circulate continuously between the riser and the downer i.e. the particles that have adsorbed ions in the absorber pass from the adsorber (downer) to the desorber where they are regenerated and the so regenerated particles are return to the adsorber near the top of the adsorber column.
