Abstract:
A closure cap including a housing including a lower housing portion, an enlarged upper housing portion and defining a shoulder therebetween. The closure cap also includes a switch member being biased outwardly from the shoulder and movable between an outwardly extending position and a retracted position. A timer is carried by the housing and cooperates with the switch member for generating an indication relating to a length of time that the switch member has been in the retracted positioned and corresponding to a time since the closure cap was most recently secured onto the pill container. A child-proof adaptor ring may be removably carried by the housing.

Abstract:
An improved apparatus for roasting raw coffee beans includes a main housing (10) having an air inlet (24). A blower assembly (18,20,22) is disposed within the housing (10) and is in fluid communication with the inlet (24). The blower assembly has a discharge location (32) whereat an electric heater (34) is located. A coffee bean receiving vessel (12) is removably mounted on the main housing (10) and in turn, a hull collector (14) disposed on the vessel (12). A control (FIG. 3), including a sensor (38,136), is located in the air stream upstream of the inlet (56,58) to the vessel (12) and downstream of the electric heating element (34).
Apparatus for effecting a continuous remixing of magnetic toner material for development of an electrostatic latent image wherein a plurality of magnetic developing rollers are positioned with intersecting magnetic force fields for effecting a blanket of development material extending about and between the developing rollers adjacent an electrostatic latent image bearing surface. The apparatus differs from prior practice in that two mixer rollers are positioned on obtuse angular relationship with respect to the bottom one of the development rollers, with magnetic orientation and hand of rotation such that an orbital magnetic field is created above the mixer rollers in space, lifting all magnetic toner material out of the normal sump area and causing a mixing action and metering action of the development material.

Abstract:
A high frequency RF gasket is disclosed which provides an electromagnetic seal between a first and second piece of a shielding enclosure. The gasket comprises highly resilient finger projections which are attached to and project out along the perimeter of the first enclosure piece. The relative mating arrangement of the gasket, and first and second enclosure piece is such that a small force imposed on said first enclosure piece is resisted by a much larger resistance force along the longitudinal dimension of the highly resilient finger projections as the fingers engage the second enclosure piece. The larger resistance force causes sufficiently high pressure at the point of contact between the finger projections and the second enclosure piece so that the surface of the second enclosure piece yields to the finger projections. Thus reliable electrical contact between the first and second enclosure pieces is obtained by piercing the surface of the second enclosure piece with the finger projection's point of contact with the second enclosure piece.
