Method Of Modeling Sanitation Levels In Food Processing Equipment

View page
US Patent:
7153470, Dec 26, 2006
Filed:
Mar 8, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/094690
Inventors:
Richard Daniel Stockard - Kirkland WA, US
Assignee:
FMC Technologies, Inc. - Chicago IL
International Classification:
A61L 2/24
US Classification:
422 3, 422 26, 422 28, 422105, 422292, 700 29, 700 30, 702136, 705 1
Abstract:
A method of creating a sanitation level model with respect to a predefined microorganism in food processing equipment is provided. The method includes generally three steps. First, a temperature history during a use cycle of the food processing equipment is created. The temperature history includes a collection of a plurality of temperatures that the food processing equipment undergoes during the use cycle. The use cycle includes a normal use stage, a sanitizing stage, and perhaps an idle stage. Second, a growth model of the microorganism is continuously applied to each applicable temperature in the temperature history. Third, a death model of the microorganism is continuously applied to each applicable temperature in the temperature history. The created sanitation level model is used to ascertain the microorganism growth/death rate in the food processing equipment during the use cycle.

US Patent:
7222738, May 29, 2007
Filed:
Apr 19, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/109990
Inventors:
Richard Daniel Stockard - Kirkland WA, US
Assignee:
FMC Technologies, Inc. - Houston TX
International Classification:
B07C 5/00
G06F 7/00
US Classification:
209552, 209586, 209592, 700223, 700228, 700230, 198952
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for sorting workpieces () includes multiple conveyors (), a scanner (), an offloading device (), a workpiece processor (), and a computer (). The computer has instructions for carrying out a method for sorting that includes obtaining the physical parameters of the workpiece by scanning the workpiece, obtaining an updated distribution of a physical parameter of a population of workpieces, obtaining an updated loading on each conveyor, obtaining the workpiece processor's capacity, obtaining a processing parameter indicating the required amount of workpiece processing to be performed, and obtaining each conveyor's speed. This information is used to place the workpiece on a conveyor in a manner that is calculated to utilize the optimum amount of workpiece processor capacity, while at the same time maintaining an even belt loading. The computer is in communication with conveyor speed drivers () and the offloader to adjust retention time and/or conveyor loading.

Determining The Thickness Profile Of Work Products

View page
US Patent:
20200375203, Dec 3, 2020
Filed:
May 29, 2020
Appl. No.:
16/887057
Inventors:
- Chicago IL, US
Daniel Holmes - Atlanta GA, US
Richard D. Stockard - Kirkland WA, US
Assignee:
John Bean Technologies Corporation - Chicago IL
International Classification:
A22C 17/00
B26D 5/00
B26D 7/06
B26F 3/00
G06T 7/00
G06T 7/62
G01B 15/02
G01B 11/06
G01N 33/12
G01N 23/083
Abstract:
A processing system () and a corresponding method are provided for processing work products (WP), including food items, to locate and quantify voids, undercuts and similar anomalies in the work products. The work products are conveyed past an X-ray scanner () by a conveyance device (). Data from the X-ray scanning is transmitted to control system (). Simultaneously with the X-ray scanning of the work product, the work product is optically scanned at the same location on the work product where X-ray scanning is occurring. The data from the optical scanner is also transmitted to the control system. Such data is analyzed to develop or generate the thickness profile of the work product. From the differences in the thickness profiles generated from the X-ray scanning data versus the optical scanning data, the location of voids, undercuts and similar anomalies can be determined by the control system. This information is used by the processing system () to process the work product as desired, including adjusting for the locations and sizes of voids, undercuts and similar anomalies present in the work product.

Portioning Accuracy Analysis

US Patent:
20200068909, Mar 5, 2020
Filed:
Aug 30, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/556951
Inventors:
- Chicago IL, US
John R. Strong - Bellevue WA, US
Matthew Falkoski - Bothell WA, US
Richard D. Stockard - Kirkland WA, US
Assignee:
John Bean Technologies Corporation - Chicago IL
International Classification:
A22C 17/00
G05B 19/416
B26D 5/34
B26D 5/00
Abstract:
Workpieces WP are scanned at a scanning station () while being transported on a conveyor (). A control system () analyzes the scanning data to develop a three-dimensional model of the workpiece WP and determine how to portion or trim the workpiece as desired. The cutting/trimming paths made through the workpiece is compared with the predetermined cutting paths to quantify the correspondence (or deviance) of the actual cutting paths from the predetermining cutting paths. This information is reviewed to determine whether the system () is operating property. If the alignment of the actual cutting/trimming paths with the predetermined cutting/trimming paths are not within a predetermined set point, the control system () seeks to determine the cause of the deviation as well as determine what remedial steps to take to restore the alignment of the actual cutting/trimming paths with the predetermined cutting/trimming paths.

Blade Portioner Calibration

US Patent:
20170210023, Jul 27, 2017
Filed:
Jan 23, 2016
Appl. No.:
15/004909
Inventors:
- CHICAGO IL, US
Richard D. Stockard - Kirkland WA, US
George R. Blaine - Lake Stevens WA, US
Assignee:
JOHN BEAN TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION - CHICAGO IL
International Classification:
B26D 5/00
G01B 15/02
G01G 19/00
G01B 11/06
Abstract:
Calibrating the operation of a cutter used in a portioning system to cut workpieces into portions, wherein the workpiece is carried along a driven conveyance device past a scanner and then to a cutting apparatus. The calibration method employs a correction algorithm to correct for variables or limitations in the condition of one or more components of the portioning system and/or variations or limitations in the operation or operational capabilities of the portioning system. The correction algorithm may also factor in the physical condition, configuration, or composition of the workpieces being portioned, as well as whether the workpieces move on the conveyance device prior to and/or during the portioning operation.

US Patent:
20150010679, Jan 8, 2015
Filed:
Jul 2, 2014
Appl. No.:
14/322854
Inventors:
- Chicago IL, US
Richard Daniel Stockard - Kirkland WA, US
Jon A. Hocker - Bothell WA, US
Assignee:
John Bean Technologies Corporation - Chicago IL
International Classification:
A23B 4/005
US Classification:
426233, 99468
Abstract:
A continuous low temperature food pasteurization system () includes a conveyor system () for conveying food products (FP) through a pasteurization chamber (). A pre heater () may be located upstream from the pasteurization chamber, and an optional post heater () may be located downstream from the pasteurization chamber. A chiller and/or freezer () rapidly chills and/or freezes the food product after pasteurization as the conveyor system conveys the food product through the freezer.
