Filed:

May 25, 2005

Appl. No.:

11/136923

Inventors:

Burt Lusk - Deer Park TX, US
Kevin Newkirk - Friendswood TX, US
Glenn Wiseman - Crosby TX, US
George Cook - Ottawa IL, US

International Classification:

B62D 33/04

US Classification:

296182100

Abstract:

A shipping container for powdered, pelleted, or other particulate material comprises an elongated body which is formed by top and bottom walls, front and back walls, and a pair of side walls. The back wall may be formed by a pair of doors which provide access to the interior storage enclosure of the body. One of the doors is provided with an inlet opening adjacent the top thereof for loading material into the storage enclosure. At least one of the doors is provided with an outlet opening adjacent the bottom thereof for unloading material from the storage enclosure. An inclined baffle extends from the bottom wall toward the outlet opening for guiding material toward the outlet opening when the front of the body is elevated. The outlet opening may include a flange for securing a flexible discharge conduit. In another embodiment the outlet opening and baffle are located in the front of the container. A front container mounted loading/unloading feature permits product delivery flexibility by allowing discharge through a tilted container without placing stress on the hinged doors.

International Classification:

G01D 942

US Classification:

346108

Abstract:

Disclosed is a plotter for recording information on a light sensitive medium by modulating a laser beam incident on the medium. Data is processed into digital light modulation signals, and corresponding control signals deflect the modulated light beam to scan the medium transversely while sweeping a high resolution raster perpendicular to the scan direction. In a method disclosed, data is processed in a preselected raster format. Instructions and parameters are determined for modulating a laser light beam according to the data thus presented, and deflecting the modulated light beam to intersect a recording medium. All raster combinations possible in the selected data format are constructed and stored in advance of data presentation, as is the appropriate time scan control information. Information is then recorded on the medium in transverse scans, each scan being structured of a relatively large number of lateral raster lines composed of dots whose intensities correspond to the original data.
