Appl. No.:

10/247250

Inventors:

Timothy J. Kooser - Newbury OH, US
Joseph F. Ball - Stow OH, US

Assignee:

Pneumatic Scale Corporation - Cuyahoga Falls OH

International Classification:

B21D051/32

US Classification:

413 1, 413 27, 413 72

Abstract:

A seaming lever containing a micro adjusting seaming element. When used in a seaming lever, the micro adjusting element permits both a coarse and a fine adjustment of the position of the seaming roll with respect to the chuck. This micro adjusting element may be retrofitted into any existing seaming lever which uses a worm gear for rotational adjustment of the seaming roll. It may also be incorporated as a design element of newly manufactured seaming levers.

Appl. No.:

7/809048

Inventors:

Joseph F. Ball - Stow OH

Assignee:

Automated Packaging Systems, Inc. - Twinsburg OH

International Classification:

B65D 8567

US Classification:

206390

Abstract:

A coil of an interconnected chain of open bags is provided in which the coil has a center opening having a diameter at least as great as the transverse dimension of the bags. A dispenser is provided on which a coil of bags is mounted. An end of the chain is pulled from the center opening and fed around a tapered mandrel and thence over a feed control mandrel oriented in angular relationship with the tapered mandrel. The web is then fed to a bagging machine for dispensing, loading and closing of the bags. The table on which the coil is mounted is rotatable so that the orientation of a span of bags running from the coil to the tapered mandrel remains substantially constant as the web is fed.

Inventors:

Joseph F. Ball - Stow OH

International Classification:

G07G 100

US Classification:

364405

Abstract:

A point of sale cash register having multiple drawers. The drawers are opened on a selected basis to prevent employee theft. One procedure would be for the drawers to open randomly so that the employee could not in advance know which drawer was opening. A second procedure would be a random lockout wherein any or all drawers of the cash register are locked until a management employee comes to conduct an audit of cash register receipts. The management employee obtains access to the cash register drawers by means of a key or code word known only to the management employee.
