A cam mechanism is provided in the throat and is movable from a disengaged position to an engaged position responsive to insertion into the throat of articles above a predetermined maximum thickness threshold. In the engaged position, the cam mechanism engages the articles to prevent further insertion thereof into the throat, and in the disengaged position the cam mechanism is disengaged from the articles to permit further insertion thereof into the throat. The cam mechanism may be movable between a closed position and an open position. In the closed position, the cam mechanism is configured to block the throat. | 12-23-2010 |
20110180642 | Portable combination horizontal grinder mixer - A combination portable horizontal grinder mixer for processing a variety of grains includes a housing that includes an upwardly opening lid and which defines and encloses therein a mixing chamber having a horizontally disposed reel-type mixer extending therethrough for simultaneously tumbling and mixing the grains and a spiraled auger that pushes the grain toward the rear of the housing for conveyance through a discharge auger that communicates with the mixing chamber and thence into a storage bin and interconnected to the housing is an infeed chute for delivering grain to a hammer mill that processes grain that requires milling before the grain can be fed into the mixing chamber with the reel-type mixer within the housing being horizontally oriented so that the mixer has greater capacity, eliminates bridging and has a low center of gravity for stable transport. | 07-28-2011 |
20110272514 | Collision sensor for wood processing equipment - A sensor system for detecting a collision between first and second parts moving relative to each other. The sensor system comprises at least one sensor for detecting a collision between the first and second parts, the sensor comprising first and second elongate conductive elements and a non-conducting spacing element partially extending between the first and second elongate conductive elements to separate the conductive elements from each other and to define spaced, adjacent portions of the conductive elements. A signal transmitting wire is in communication with each elongate conductive element. A housing retains the sensor for mounting in a region between the first and second parts such that any collision between the parts will tend to deform the spaced, adjacent portions of the conductive elements into contact with each other at the point of collision to complete a circuit via the signal transmitting wires to indicate the collision has occurred. In a preferred arrangement the moving parts are part of a wood processing unit, and the signal is used to shutdown the unit to prevent damage. The sensor and sensory system described offer improved reliability as compared to previous designs. | 11-10-2011 |
20120056026 | BIN LEVEL DETECTION WITH LIGHT INTENSITY SENSING - An assembly has a bin level detection system having at least one sensor positioned to receive radiation reflected off any material deposited in a bin and to determine an intensity of the reflected radiation. The intensity corresponds to an amount or level of shredded material deposited in the bin. The system may detect radiation from one or more emitters, or, alternatively, detect ambient light entering the bin via a window. A level indicator system may also be provided to indicate the amount of material deposited in the bin, including if the bin is full. The assembly may comprise a shredder and a shredder housing. | 03-08-2012 |
20120205475 | High-Speed Blending, Heating and Temperature Sensing Structure of Electric Blender - The present invention provides a high-speed blending, heating and temperature sensing structure of an electric blender. The blender includes a temperature transducer installed at the bottom of a mixing cup, and the temperature transducer has a temperature sensing head extended into the mixing cup and an upper connector coupled to the bottom of the temperature transducer and installed at the bottom of the mixing cup, and a temperature sensing signal is coupled between the temperature sensing head and the upper connector. A hidden temperature sensing connector seat is disposed at the top of the base and has a lower connector corresponding to the upper connector at the bottom of the mixing cup, and both upper and lower connectors are coupled with each other when the mixing cup and the base are combined, and the lower connector is coupled to a display screen and a touch control switch on the base through a signal line. Therefore, the temperature of a food material in the mixing cup of the blender mixing cup can be displayed on the display screen by coupling the upper and lower connectors, and the touch control switch is provided for setting the temperature of heating the food material in the mixing cup. | 08-16-2012 |
20130026268 | PULVERIZER AND CORRESPONDING METHOD FOR PREPARING A BIOLOGICAL SAMPLE FOR PROCESSING - The invention relates, for example, to methods for preparing a plant or animal sample for processing, i.e. for example for the isolation of nucleic acids or proteins from the sample, as well as to a pulverizer. | 01-31-2013 |
20130277472 | CENTERING ROLLS - The present invention relates to a roller grinder comprising two rollers, each mounted on a separate shaft, a fixation means, a guide member, and a first and a second end member. A centre of the guide member is rotatably attached to the fixation means in a position, which in a horizontal direction is located centrally between said rollers. Each end of the guide member is attached to a first end of the first and second end members, respectively, by means of a joint, such that both the guide member and the first and second end members can rotate around the joint, and the first and second end members, respectively, are rotatably attached at a second end to a respective one of the shafts. | 10-24-2013 |
20140084094 | CONTAINER FOR A FOOD MIXER - A base for a food mixer includes a container body having a bottom wall. A blade unit is mounted in the container body and includes a blade unit body and a coupling member. A seat made of metal is mounted to an outer side of the bottom wall of the container body. The seat includes an underside having a first recess. A weight is mounted to the underside of the seat. A cushioning pad is sandwiched between the weight and the seat. The coupling member extends beyond the underside of the seat or an underside of the weight. The coupling member connects with a shaft of a power unit. | 03-27-2014 |
