Abstract:
A utensil, such as a wok, for stir-frying foodstuffs has a bowl with a substantially oval rim, an elongated handle having a non-circular cross-sectional outline, and joints for connecting the handle to the bowl in such a way that the handle is adjustable relative to the bowl about at least one of two axes one of which extends substantially radially and the other of which extends substantially tangentially of the bowl. A shield is or can be interposed between the handle and the bowl to intercept particles of food splashing from the bowl during stir-frying of foodstuffs above a flame.

US Patent:
20060169655, Aug 3, 2006
Filed:
Jan 28, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/044460
Inventors:
Timour Shu - Quinton VA, US
International Classification:
A47B 81/02
US Classification:
211066000
Abstract:
A work surface accessory assembly including at least two bars coated or covered with flexible high friction material and two vertical brackets fastened to base plate as pedestal. The bars are parallel and horizontal and fastened to two vertical brackets. One bar is fastened higher than the other one. When a watercolor brush handle is set between and perpendicular to two bars; the center of gravity of the brush creates a pressure on the lower bar and another pressure on other bar in opposite direction. The combination of the high friction material on bars and the pressure between the brush handle and bars hold the brush in a steep angle with the bristle tip facing downward.

View page
US Patent:
48860778, Dec 12, 1989
Filed:
Dec 2, 1983
Appl. No.:
6/557662
Inventors:
Alfred Hinzmann - Weams VA
Peter M. Preisner - Mechanicsville VA
Timour T. Shu - Chesterfield VA
Assignee:
Korber AG - Hamburg
International Classification:
A24C 500
A24C 532
A24C 535
A24C 547
US Classification:
131282
Abstract:
Plain cigarettes of unit length are fed into successive axially parallel peripheral flutes of a rotary drum-shaped first conveyor in such a way that each cigarette enters a first end portion of the respective flute. The second end portions of the flutes have suction ports which attract the cigarettes in alternate flutes so that such cigarettes move axially and provide room for introduction of additional cigarettes whereby each second flute contains a pair of coaxial cigarettes which define a gap for a filter rod section of double unit length. Pairs of coaxial cigarettes in alternate flutes are released for transfer into the axially parallel peripheral flutes of a second drum-shaped conveyor by a system of valving elements composed of a stationary valving element in the interior of the first conveyor and a rotary valving element which connects at intervals two axially parallel bores of the stationary valving element with a suction generating device.

Method Of And Apparatus For Making Tubular Envelopes

View page
US Patent:
54428971, Aug 22, 1995
Filed:
Oct 5, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/132506
Inventors:
Alfred Hinzmann - Weems VA
Peter Preisner - Quinton VA
Timour Shu - Richmond VA
Wojciech Drewnowski - Richmond VA
Assignee:
Hauni Richmond, Inc. - Richmond VA
International Classification:
B65B 502
B65B 900
B65B 5126
B65B 6112
US Classification:
53449
Abstract:
A continuous web of wrapping material for catamenial tampons or other commodities is advanced lengthwise first through a station where it is acted upon by a perforating knife to weaken longitudinally spaced-apart portions of the web transversely of the direction of advancement. The web is thereupon converted into a continuous tubular body and the leader of the tubular body is engaged by a pair of rolls which pull the leader in the direction of lengthwise advancement of the web in order to break the material of the web along successive weakened portions. The thus obtained discrete tubular envelopes are moved sideways, one end portion of each envelope is closed, a commodity is introduced through the other end portion, and the other end portion is closed to confine the commodity at both ends. Such mode of making tubular envelopes ensures that the material of the web is not wasted at all and that the envelopes need not be stored prior to reception of commodities.

Tampon

US Patent:
50044672, Apr 2, 1991
Filed:
Oct 4, 1989
Appl. No.:
7/416997
Inventors:
Alfred Hinzmann - Weems VA
Timour T. Shu - Richmond VA
Wojciech S. Drewnowski - Richmond VA
Peter M. Preisner - Quinton VA
Assignee:
Hauni Richmond, Inc. - Richmond VA
International Classification:
A61F 1315
US Classification:
604904
Abstract:
A catamenial tampon is assembled from a cylindrical pledget of compressible absorbent material, such as rayon or cotton, and a rectangular blank of foraminous sheet material. The central portion of the blank is placed adjacent one end face of the pledget, and the pledget is then pushed axially through a tubular die with its one end face leading so that the annular portion of the blank around the central portion is draped around the entire peripheral surface of the pledget and the converted blank forms a cup with an annular rim extending beyond the other end face of the pledget. The rim is then folded over the other end face of the pledget, and the resulting assembly is provided with a removal cord subsequent to simultaneous reduction of the diameters of the cup and pledget to complete the making of a tampon which is ready for use or for insertion into the tube of an applicator.
