Appl. No.:

11/582168

Inventors:

Lazhar Mazlout - Duluth GA, US
Michael Pate - Senoia GA, US

Assignee:

OFS Fitel, LLC - Norcross GA

International Classification:

C03C 15/00
B08B 3/00

US Classification:

Abstract:

Core rods or other glass components associated with optical fiber preforms are cleaned by loading them into a number of first sleeves, and partially obstructing entrance and exit ends of the sleeves to retain the components. The sleeves are contained inside a second sleeve so that the entrance ends of the first sleeves face an entrance end of the second sleeve. A fluid delivery system supplies cleaning fluids to the entrance end of the second sleeve, so that the fluids enter the first sleeves and contact exposed surfaces of the loaded components. The fluids leave the exit ends of the first sleeves and purge from an exit end of the second sleeve. Separators may be placed between the components in the first sleeves to enhance cleaning action and to cushion adjacent end faces of the components. Cleaned components may be unloaded from the first sleeves without risk of contamination.

Abstract:

A looped elastic waistband (14) is positioned along a circular sewing path (12) with the waist edge (21) of a pair of pants (12) in straddling relationship thereover. The garment parts are advanced past a folding assembly (61), which folds the waist edge (21) of the pants (16) over the waistband (14), and past sewing needles (13) that form lines of stitching along the aligned edges of the pants (16) and waistband (14) and through the folded portion (22) of the pants waist (19). In the meantime, the position of the waist edge (21) of the pants (16) over the waistband (14) is adjusted in response to position the waist edges (21) as detected by body edge sensor (13) which controls the reciprocation of a pair of drive wheels (87 and 88) of an edge guide assembly (86) which engage and urge the waist edge (21) of the pants (16) across from the sewing path (12). An expansion roller assembly (62) maintains tension in the waistband (14) and the waist edge (20) of the pants (16) during a sewing operation, and is pivotable to equalize tension in the waistband (14) and pants (16).

Abstract:

Method and apparatus are disclosed for automated resume and job posting creation with limited user-generated information. An example automated system includes a database and processor(s). The processor(s) are configured to obtain employment information for previous positions of a candidate via an employment app. For each of the previous positions, the processor(s) are configured to present a position interface; collect an employer name, a position title, a location, and a period of employment via the position interface; present a responsibilities interface that includes suggested responsibilities for the previous position; and collect, via the responsibilities interface, one or more selected responsibilities. The processor(s) are configured to retrieve, for each of the previous positions, the suggested responsibilities from the database based on the employer name, the position title, the location, and the period of employment. The processor(s) are configured to create a resume utilizing the one or more selected responsibilities.
