20090035407 | Apparatus for placing mold charges into a compression molding machine - An apparatus for placing mold charges into a mold of a compression molding machine includes a carrier, an arm pivotally mounted on the carrier and a mold charge pick-up cup on the arm at a position spaced from the carrier. The arm is pivotal on the carrier between a first position at which the arm is positioned to deposit a mold charge into a mold and a second position at which the mold charge pick-up cup is disposed to transport the mold charge. The carrier preferably is mounted for rotation around an axis. In some embodiments, a cam mechanism is coupled to the arm to pivot the arm as a function of rotation of the carrier. A spring may be coupled between the arm and the carrier for biasing the arm toward one of the first and second positions of the arm. In another embodiment, an actuator is carried by the carrier and coupled to the arm to pivot the arm with respect to the carrier. The arm preferably includes a passage for selective application of air and/or vacuum to the mold charge pick-up cup. | 02-05-2009 |
20090196948 | Apparatus for placing mold charges into a compression molding machine - An apparatus for placing a mold charge into a mold of a compression molding machine includes a carrier mounted for rotation around a first axis, at least one arm mounted on the carrier for rotation around a second axis at an angle to the first axis, and a mold charge pick-up cup on the arm for receiving a mold charge, transporting the mold charge and placing the mold charge into a mold of the compression molding machine. A cam is carried in stationary position adjacent to the carrier surrounding the first axis, and a cam follower is operatively coupled to the arm in engagement with the cam for rotating the arm and the mold charge pick-up cup around the second axis as the carrier is rotated around the first axis. The second axis of rotation of the arm preferably is perpendicular to the first axis of rotation of the carrier, and the cam and follower preferably are such that the mold charge pick-up cup is oriented horizontally to receive a mold charge and oriented vertically to deposit the mold charge in the mold of the compression molding machine. A control valve preferably is carried for selective application of vacuum and air under pressure through a passage in the arm to the mold charge pick-up cup to assist in pick-up, transport and deposit of the mold charge into the mold. | 08-06-2009 |
20090269431 | Compression molding an annular closure shell - Apparatus for compression molding an annular closure shell having a base wall with a center opening and, in accordance with one aspect of the disclosure, includes male and female mold sections having associated male and female mold surfaces that generally oppose each other. The female mold section includes an opening in the female mold surface and a mold pin extending through the opening. The male and female mold surfaces cooperate to generally define the base wall of the annular closure shell and the mold pin cooperates with the male mold section to generally define the center opening of the annular closure shell. Closure of the male and female mold sections forms an annular mold cavity for receiving and compression molding a mold charge into the annular closure shell having the base wall with the center opening, which at least partially surrounds the mold pin. | 10-29-2009 |

20080309017 | Environmental brush seal - A passive brush seal effectively to limit conditioned air such as humidity, temperature or filtered air, or contaminated air such as smoke or fumes from an area of greater pressure to one of lower pressure. The passive brush seal is in the form of a strip brush with polygonal filaments that provide an improved block to the flow of gases. The shape of the filaments is such that they inter-fit or interlock and separate less readily. Important applications are as elevator seals or clean room or computer room seals. | 12-18-2008 |
20100083581 | ENVIRONMENTAL BRUSH SEAL - A passive brush seal effectively to limit conditioned air such as humidity, temperature or filtered air, or contaminated air such as smoke or fumes from an area of greater pressure to one of lower pressure. The passive brush seal is in the form of a strip brush with triangular filaments that provide an improved block to the flow of gases. The shape of the filaments is such that they inter-fit or interlock and separate less readily. Important applications are as elevator seals or clean room or computer room seals. | 04-08-2010 |

20110281634 | VIDEO AND MECHANICAL SPINNING BONUS WHEEL - A gaming machine includes a combination inner video display and rotatable object. The inner video display and the rotatable object may be correlated together to form a reconfigurable object. Both the inner video display and the rotatable object can have segments wherein each segment may have an indicia associated with the segment, wherein the indicia can be a prize, a bonus multiplier, a progressive jackpot, a negative value, a bonus spin character, a loss of spin character, a blank space or a null character. The player will be rewarded with the corresponding prize(s) based upon the outcome of the combination inner video display and rotatable object. | 11-17-2011 |

20090124383 | APPARATUS FOR USE WITH INTERACTIVE TABLE GAMES AND METHODS OF USE - Methods and apparatus for use with an interactive gaming table. In one aspect, an administration tool is provided for use with an interactive gaming table. The interactive gaming table includes a playing surface for displaying a game, a signal source, and a signal collector. The administration tool includes a primary identifying indicia that uniquely identifies the tool to the gaming table by reflecting a signal emitted by the signal source such that the signal reflected by the primary identifying indicia is received and analyzed by the signal collector. The administration tool also includes a secondary identifying indicia that is recognized by the gaming table by reflecting the signal emitted by the signal source such that the signal reflected by the secondary identifying indicia is received and analyzed by the signal collector, wherein a present state of the displayed game is changed based on a player's action taken with the tool. | 05-14-2009 |

20120021824 | MODULAR GAMING MACHINE AND SECURITY SYSTEM - A modularized gaming machine operable to receive wagers on a play of a game of chance is described. The modularized gaming machine may include a base gaming module that can operate independently or can be coupled to additional gaming modules. In one embodiment, the base gaming module may include a security monitoring system operable to determine a security configuration including error conditions that depends on features of gaming modules coupled to the base gaming module. In another embodiment, the security monitoring system may be operable to monitor a fixed security configuration that is independent of the configuration of the modularized gaming machine. The fixed security configuration may anticipate input from security devices that are unconnected in a particular configuration of the modularized gaming machine. In these instances, a signal mechanism may provide information to the security monitoring system to ensure a non-error condition for unconnected security devices. | 01-26-2012 |
