US Patent:

6415298, Jul 2, 2002

Filed:

Jul 15, 1999

Appl. No.:

09/353589

Inventors:

Andreas U. Oesterer - Arlington VA
Ian M. Campbell - Golden CO

Assignee:

American Management Systems, Inc. - Fairfax VA

International Classification:

G06F 1700

US Classification:

707203, 707514, 345700

Abstract:

A system that provides a graphical user interface showing relationships between effective dated objects in an object oriented system and showing modifications to the objects over time. The interface displays an effective dated tree control of persistent objects. The control shows past, current and future events associated with the objects represented in the control. Related persistent objects are found in a database and marked as active responsive to the effective dates. The objects can be selected (âclicked-onâ) and additional details of the objects are displayed.

US Patent:

54543010, Oct 3, 1995

Filed:

Aug 30, 1993

Appl. No.:

8/112969

Inventors:

Ronald S. Rainey - Easton CT
Ian P. Campbell - Rowayton CT

International Classification:

A23N 412

US Classification:

99544

Abstract:

Apparatus and methods are disclosed for removing palm hearts from the tapered and "meristem" sections of cut lengths of stalks of palm, each of which had included a large "meristem" section joined to a smaller diameter top section by an intermediate tapered section, and had a palm heart that runs the length of the stalk as a core member inside an intermediate layer that is surrounded by a thorny outer bark layer. After removel of the smaller diameter section from the remainder of the stalk, the remaining tapered and "meristem" sections are caused to be retentively positioned in coring means by which, backed by means for retaining the work piece in position, a coring knife moves substantially coaxially to the piece from one of its ends to core out and remove the palmheart core from the remainder of the work piece. Embodiments include such means per se and methods for carrying out the foregoing processes.

US Patent:

42604834, Apr 7, 1981

Filed:

Feb 2, 1978

Appl. No.:

5/874649

Inventors:

John G. Nicholson - New Rochelle NY
Ian P. Campbell - South Norwalk CT

Assignee:

Zapata Industries, Inc. - Frackville PA

International Classification:

B07C 534

US Classification:

209539

Abstract:

In accordance with the present invention, methods and machinery are provided for automatically inspecting shaped, lined closures and rejecting those which fail to meet pre-established criteria for shape and seal. Specifically, shaped closures having concave interior portions and resilient sealing liners are supplied to an inspection station comprising one or more female inspection nests for receiving individual closures and one or more respective male inspection heads for insertion into the concave portions of respective closures. The inspection heads are provided with exterior shapes approximating the interiors of ideal closures so that penetration into the closure indicates the conformity of the closure to the ideal. Preferably, the inspection head is connected to a source of pressurized fluid for testing both the depth of penetration and the adequacy of the sealing ring. Closures capable of maintaining a seal at a predetermined level of pressure are automatically passed and closures failing to meet this test are automatically rejected.

International Classification:

A23N 412

US Classification:

99542

Abstract:

Apparatus and methods are disclosed for removing palm hearts from cut lengths of stalks of palm each of which includes a large "meristem" section that is joined to a smaller diameter top section by an intermediate tapered section, and has a palm heart that runs the length of the stalk as a core member inside an intermediate layer that is surrounded by a thorny outer bark layer. Each such stalk is caused to move longitudinally through bark removal means for slitting the outer bark layer of its smaller diameter section and removing the bark from the remainder of the stalk. The smaller section, after having been severed from the rest of the stalk, is caused to move longitudinally through intermediate layer removal means for slitting and removing the intermediate layer from the underlying palm heart. Embodiments include each such means per se and acting cooperatively with the other, and methods for carrying out the foregoing processes.
