US Patent:
6460530, Oct 8, 2002
Filed:
Mar 27, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/537437
Inventors:
Dean A. Backeris - Pittsburgh PA, 15201
James Kappernaros - Pittsburgh PA, 15238
Frank J. Costa - Pittsburgh PA, 15215
International Classification:
F41A 961
US Classification:
124 49, 124 50, 124 53, 124 72, 222367, 221203, 221265
Abstract:
A ball feeding device for a for connection to a separate and independent ball propelling machine, such as those used to propel softballs, tennis balls, and baseballs. The preferred embodiment includes a lower chute connected to the feed port of a ball machine. Balls are delivered to the lower chute from a hopper through a feed port comprising of a tumbler casing of a hollow tube formation having an entry hole on its open upper end and a feed hole on its open lower end. The casing has a tumbler hole on its wall leading to the feed port. A tumbler sleeve is positioned in the tumbler hole and axial extends perpendicular to the path of the feed port. The tumbler sleeve has a ring gear around its circumference. The tumbler sleeve also has a semicircular sleeve extension, having an inner and outer wall which extends a predetermined distance into the feed port and obstructs the passage of balls though the port. The upper end of the casing is placed within the exit hole of the hopper.

Ball Projecting Attachment For Various Air Blowers

US Patent:
58875786, Mar 30, 1999
Filed:
Aug 25, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/920180
Inventors:
Dean A. Backeris - Gibsonia PA
James P. Kappernaros - Pittsburgh PA
Frank J. Costa - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
F41B 1500
US Classification:
124 49
Abstract:
An improved ball projecting apparatus for balls of various sizes, weights, materials and shapes, which utilizes air pressure supplied by a separate and independent source of flowing air, such as a leaf blower, to project balls. More specifically, it comprises of a barrel (10) of tubular form defining a linear air discharge axis. The barrel is attached on one end to the source of flowing air (11). A barrel hole (12) is formed in the barrel wall. Attached to the barrel is a tumbler casing (14). The casing has a hollow tubular formation. It has an entry hole (16) and a feed hole (19) formed on its wall directly opposite each other. The tumbler casing is attached and sealed at its feed hole to the barrel hole creating a path or feed port through the casing and into the barrel. Inside the casing is a tumbler (20) being of hollow tubular shell formation which is solid on all walls and ends except for a tumbler hole (22) formed on its wall, exposing the tumbler chamber into which a ball is deposited. This tumbler is capable of being revolved within the casing.

US Patent:
40810623, Mar 28, 1978
Filed:
Oct 22, 1976
Appl. No.:
5/735065
Inventors:
James P. Kappernaros - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
F16D 700
US Classification:
192 56R
Abstract:
A drive assembly is provided including first and second torque input and torque output sections coupled together for relative rotation and limited relative displacement along the axis of relative rotation thereof. The input section includes structure for applying rotational torque thereto and the output section includes structure for applying rotary torque to a rotary driven member. Spring structure is connected between the sections yieldingly biasing the latter toward one set of limit positions of displacement along said axis and one of the units includes a spiral ramp concentric with the axis of relative rotation and the other of the sections includes a follower engaged with the ramp. The spiral ramp terminates at one end thereof in a circumferential race concentric with the axis of relative rotation of the sections and in which the follower is guidingly receivable for continuous movement therethrough after movement along the ramp from the end thereof remote from the race into the latter. The sections are displaced along the axis of relative rotation against the biasing action of the spring during movement of the follower along the ramp toward the race.

US Patent:
49590871, Sep 25, 1990
Filed:
Jun 14, 1989
Appl. No.:
7/365830
Inventors:
James Kappernaros - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
A61L 904
US Classification:
55279
Abstract:
A forced air handling system filter is provided including an inwardly opening, channel-shaped peripheral frame from which corresponding peripheral portions of a panel-like filter batt is supported and an elongated bar of scented material is provided and stationarily supported within a pocket of the frame opening inwardly of the inner periphery thereof. The bar includes a scent impervious cover completely enclosing the bar and one longitudinal edge of the bar projects outwardly of the aforementioned pocket toward the remote side of the frame and that portion of the cover disposed over the bar marginal portion includes a tear strip extending longitudinally thereof. The tear strip is adjustably tearable from the remainder of the cover to expose a corresponding portion of the bar for scent release therefrom.
