The apparatus serves for the righting and arraying of oblong shaped parts from a reclining into a standing position with a filling opening lying above and following transfer to a transport device. It has a circular turntable, the shaft of which is set obliquely to the vertical, there being provided around the turntable a cylindrical housing open at the top, which is cylindrical under the turntable. About the turntable there are arranged ring segments which present individual downward-converting fall shafts, there being provided above the fall shafts reclining spaces provided with levers for orienting the reclining parts to an upright position. The reclining spaces extend tangentially to the turntable perimeter, made in the outer border of the ring segment and are blocked off by a fixed floor arranged in the zone of the passage openings, which floor is briefly interrupted in the vicinity of the uppermost point of the revolution path of the border of the ring segments for the dropping-through of the shaped part. The levers or baffle plates are swingable, the position of which is controllable in dependence on the position of the shaped part by means of an optical or electronic arrangement.
1. An apparatus for orienting randomly oriented oblong bottles and like-shaped objects into upright orientation with a filling end pointing upwardly and followed by delivering the bottles one by one to a horizontal transfer device, and including a housing (3) adapted to receive randomly oriented bottles and having an inclined shaft (11) concentrically and rotatably arranged in the housing; a turntable means (2,16) concentrically fixed to said shaft, said housing enclosing said turntable and having a funnel-shaped lower region; a plurality of spaced openings (6) at the periphery of said turntable means, each opening adapted to receive one of said bottles; a plurality of individual fall shafts (4) aligned with and vertically spaced from said openings, said fall shafts being attached to said turntable means and converging downwardly to a funnel shape to conform with said funnel-shaped lower region of the housing; a fixed floor (9) arranged between said openings and said fall shafts to prevent the bottles from falling through said openings and into the fall shafts, said fixed floor further having a gap in the vicinity of the uppermost point of the revolution path of the turntable to permit the bottles to fall into said fall shafts; the improvement comprising a baffle plate pivotally attached to each fall shaft, said baffle plate comprising a swingable lever (5) and control means (13,14,15) for positioning the lever, depending upon the position of the bottle, to contact the bottle adjacent the filling end, the lever acting as a fulcrum to permit the end opposite the filling end to fall first through said shaft.
2. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said control means includes sensing means (15) for determining the position of the bottles and a fixed stop roll (13) for bringing all levers to one predetermined position and a controllable stop wall (14) located diametrically opposite the fixed roll to either leave each said lever in said one predetermined position or to position each said lever in a second predetermined position, depending upon the output of the sensing means.
3. The apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said lever further includes a projecting swinging anxle (19) rotatably attached to a back wall (12) of the fall shaft and a pin (20) running transversely to said swinging axle, said wall having stops (21) attached thereto to engage and limit the pin, said stops determining the position of the lever.
The invention relates to an apparatus for righting and arraying oblong bottles, cans, shaped parts or the like of various forms and sizes into a standing position with filling opening lying above, and following transfer to a transport device with a circular turntable the shaft of which is set obliquely to the vertical, in which there is provided a housing open at the top around the turntable, which is constructed cylindrical or funnel-shaped under the turntable, that in the border zone of the turntable there are arranged individual fall shafts converging downward and over the fall shafts there are provided reclining places provided with baffle plates for the shaped parts, that the reclining places are passage openings runing tangentially to the border, made in the outer border of the turntable, and the reclining places are blocked off against the fall shafts by a fixed floor arranged in the zone of the passage openings on the housing, which floor is briefly interrupted in the vicinity of the upper most point of the revolution path of the border of the turntable for the dropping through of a shaped part.
An apparatus with these features is known (German patent 2,651,495), in which the passage openings made in the border of the turntable are adapted as reclining places for the shaped parts in about the length of these shaped parts. The shaped part must be arranged there in its reclining place in such a way that it passes with its filling opening--in the case of a bottle body this is the neck of the bottle--directed upward. In the case of cups or cans open to one side, corresponding molding pieces must be arranged on the border of the passage opening, in which case, further, in the shaft there are additionally mounted supplementary tilting parts, in order to guide the shaped part into the fall shaft in the correct position. The substantial disadvantage of this construction of the reclining places for the shaped parts lies in that for the majority of shaped parts to be processed the ring segments containing the reclining places at the circumference of the turntable have to be changed. This changing is time-consuming and expensive and a large number of such ring segments must be kept in stock. A further substantial disadvantage lies in that the closely fitted passage openings of the reclining places render difficult an optimal occupation in the turning turntable, since a shaped part is not transported by each reclining place of the turntable rotating at the highest possible turning speed. The deformed shaped parts and also poorly falling shaped parts can get stuck in the passage through the narrow opening, which can lead to misfunctionings. Because of the sparse occupation of the shafts higher turning rates must be run, which again has a disadvantageous effect on the bottle transfer from the shafts to the conveyor belt.
Underlying the invention is the problem of constructing a device of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that the passage opening can be made so large that, without changing of the ring segments, a large number of forms can be processed and special baffle plates can be dispensed with in the process.
The problem is solved according to the invention by the means that as baffle plates in the zone of the passage openings there are provided swingable or shiftable floors or overlays, the position of which is controllable in dependence on the position of the shaped parts by means of an optical or electronic arrangement.
An advantageous form of execution consists in that, on the shaft of the side of the fall shaft facing the turntable there is borne as baffle plate a lever extending into the passage opening, which is swingable into the one end position by means of a fixed stop roll and into the other end position by means of a controllable stop roll, in which system the controllable stop roll is disposed on the outside in the zone of the optical or electronic arrangement as seen in running direction. Further, it is advantageous that the lever is borne on the back wall of the fall shaft and that on the projecting pivot axis there is arranged a pin running transversely thereto, which comes into engagement on stops for the limiting of the privoting movement. It is further advantageous that as baffle plates there are arranged floors divided in the middle of the opening or retractable floors or bolts arranged in the passage opening.
Finally it is advantageous that for the movement control of the floors or bolts there are provided pneumatic or electro-mechanical drives or a mechanical deflector setting.
The invention offers the substantial advantage that with a certain size of the passage opening and therewith also of the reclining place for the shaped parts there can be processed a certain number of different sizes, without its being necessary here for the segments to the changed. There is yielded the further advantage that the reclining places arranged in the border of the turntable are utilized by an optimal occupation, so that the turntable can be driven at a favorable speed. Therewith there is yielded also an especially gentle treatment of the shaped parts.
The invention is explained in detail in the following description with the aide of an example of execution represented in the drawings.
FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of an example of execution of such an apparatus,
FIG. 2 a longitudinal section through such an apparatus,
FIG. 3 a plan view of the apparatus,
FIG. 4 a partial section through the apparatus with the fixed stop roll,
FIG. 5 a partial section through the apparatus with the controllable stop roll,
FIG. 6 a partial section through the turntable with the fall shaft arranged under it in the uppermost position of the revolution path,
FIG. 7 a ground plan of FIG. 6,
FIGS. 8 and 9 show corresponding representations according to FIGS. 6 and 7, with shaped part reversed,
FIG. 10 shows a side view of a segment with the fall shaft in section,
FIG. 11 a partial front view of the segment,
FIG. 12 a plan view of such a segment,
FIG. 13 a block circuit diagram for the form of execution of an electronic control system at a first identification point and
FIG. 14 the control system at another identification point.
The overall structure of the apparatus is yielded especially from FIGS. 1 to 3. The apparatus has, in particular, a circular obliquely set rotating turntable 2, which is mounted on a shaft 11 inclined to the vertical. On the circumference of the turntable 2 there are arranged individual ring segments 17, these ring segments being provided on the outer edge with rectangular passage openings 8, which are provided as reclining places 6 for the shaped parts 7 to be transported. The longitudinal extent of these passages 8 occurs in tangential direction to the turntable 2. Underneath the turntable 2 there is a circular underlayer rotating together with this, which stands out in an annular zone 22 at the circumference of the turntable 2 and on which the ring segments 17 are partially supported. On the ring segments 17 there are arranged, in each case in the zone of a passage opening 8, fall shafts 4 (chutes), which present a U-shaped cross section and have two lateral walls 23 and a back wall 12 directed to the shaft 11. These fall shafts 4 narrow downward, which is to be perceived, for example, in FIGS. 3, 6, 8 and 11. The turntable 2, together with the ring segments 17, is arranged inside a housing 3 which is constructed cylindrical above the turntable 2 and runs in funnel-form underneath the turntable 2. In the border zone of the ring segments 17 there is present underneath the passage openings 8 a fixed floor 9 mounted on the housing 3, which floor extends about to the uppermost point 10 of the revolution path and there presents an interruption 18 for the passage of the shaped parts (FIGS. 6 to 9 and FIG. 14). In the region of the uppermost point 10 of the revolution path the fall shafts 4 are arranged vertically and the shaped parts 8 are transferred in this vertical position to a transport device 1. The housing 3 is provided with a floor 24 which simultaneously bounds the fall shafts 4.
The individual shaped parts 7 are transported from the lowest point of the apparatus arranged in their reclining places 6 to the uppermost point 10 of the revolution path. Here, care must be taken that the shaped parts pass into the fall shaft in such a way that the filling opening of the shaped part 7 is situated at the top. For this, there is allocated to each fall shaft 4 a special baffle plate 5, which in the example of execution represented in the drawings consists of an L-shaped lever which has an elonged arm 25 running downward and a finger 26 reaching transversely over the opening 8. The formation of the baffle plate 5 is recognizable especially from FIGS. 4 to 9. At the longer end of the elongated arm 25 there is provided a pivot axis 19, which is borne on the back wall 12 of the fall shaft 4. The bearing is located in the lower zone of the fall shaft and about in the middle (FIGS. 6 and 8). At the end of the pivot axle 19 there is provided a pin 20 running transversely to the axial direction. By stops 21, which are provided in the form of pins mounted on the back wall 12, the two end positions of the lever 5 are bounded. For adaptation to different-sized shaped parts 7 in the reclining places 6 the swinging angle of the baffle plate 5, and therewith the position of the finger 26, is adjustable. This can be accomplished, for example, by inserting the pins 21 in other places of the back wall 12. If, for example, the opening of the shaped part 7 as seen in runing direction 27 is in front (FIGS. 6 and 7), then the lever 5 is swung forward, so that the opening of the shaped part 7 can abut on the finger 26. If, however, the opening is arranged counter to the running direction 27 (FIGS. 8 and 9), then the lever 5 is swung in the opposite direction, so that here, too, the opening of the shaped part is supported on the finger 26 and the shaped part can pass correspondingly into the fall shaft 4. The control of the movement occurs by a fixed stop roll 13 and a controllable stop roll 14. The fixed stop roll 13 is located on the revolution path after the ejection of the shaped part 7, in the drawing about in the zone of the lowest point of the revolution path behind the back wall 12 of the fall shafts 4 and is fastened to a support 28, for example on the floor 24 of the housing 3. On this fixed stop roll 13 the levers 5 are aligned fundamentally in one direction. For the identification of the position of the shaped parts 7 there is present, in the zone of the revolution path in the direction of the uppermost curve point 10, i.e. in a position in which the shaped parts 7 are singled, an optical or electronic arrangement 15. In this position or, as seen in running position, after it, but before the interruption 18 of the floor 9, there is present the controllable stop roll 14 (FIG. 5), which is likewise mounted on a support 28. The controllable stop roll 14 is mounted on a pneumatic cylinder 29, which is controlled in dependence on the position of the shaped part 7 in its reclining place and on the position of the lever 5.
FIGS. 10 to 12 show the construction of the ring segment 17, in which on this ring segment, corresponding to the passage openings 8, there are arranged fall shafts 4, as well as individual insertion shoes 30, with which the ring segment 17 is thrust over the border zone 22 of the circular underlayer 16. The ring segments 17 are emplaced on the circular underlayer 16 and screwed with connecting plates 31 between adjacent segments 17.
In FIGS. 13 and 14 there is represented the control arrangement which operates the stop roll 14. The control arrangement has a trigger unit 32 which as synchronization element is responsible for the speed of the turntable, for the position of the bottles in the turntable, for an aimed light-source control, as well as for the control appropriate to the position and to the speed of the mechanical system and of the time point of the comparative process in the electronic control system. The control logic 33 arranged on the outlet side appraises the information data obtained from the comparison apparatus 34 arranged on the outlet side and the optical recognition (identification) system 35 under comparison with the ideal, and gives the corresponding signals to a control apparatus 36, which then operates the pneumatic cylinder 29 of the controllable stop roll 14. To the optical recognition system there is allocated a triggered light source 37.
With the aid of the optical or electronic arrangement 15 (FIG. 2), there can be identified the exact position of the shaped part in its reclining place 6 and the stop roll 14 can be correspondingly driven. As optical recognition system there can be provided, for example, a photoelectric cell or a one- or more-line camera (CCD). For the recognition of the position of the containers and shaped parts 7 there can also be used another electronic arrangement, for example an initiator, an ultrasonic device or a laser system.
In the example of execution represented in the drawing there is present as baffle plate 5 a special lever. In place of such a lever there can also be provided a floor divided in the middle of the opening 8. Further, as baffle plate there can be used a retractable floor or bolt.

Restaurant Recipe from Olive + Gourmando in Montreal
When I go north, I expect the weather to cool down — not unreasonable, right? So when Montreal flouted this expectation last month with an unseasonable flush of heat, I was not prepared. On one particularly warm afternoon I fled into a café, escaping the sun, my entire body prickly with heat and irritation.
As I brushed by one of the enormous open windows on my way in, the smell of basil and rosemary rose up to greet me. The windows of this café were overflowing with pots of herbs. I slid behind a small wood table and ordered something uncharacteristic, for me: Iced green tea. I think I was drawn to it by its name — they called it an "elixir," and when I took the first cold sip it was almost magical in its cooling power.

Publishers Weekly★ 01/27/2014
In his 14th book, British journalist and historian Watson (The Great Divide) turns his estimable intellectual skills on the history of non-belief - which he calls "a major plank of modernity" –beginning with Friedrich Nietzsche's 1882 declaration that "God is dead." While this ground is well-trodden, Watson takes an intriguing course: he charts it by genre. Particularly fascinating are passages about non-belief's impact on the arts. Too many Americans, those of faith and no faith, are unaware that atheism is not an invention of the "New Atheists" Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, and Sam Harris (who all fall under Watson's scrutiny), but has a history of expression in literature (James Joyce, Samuel Beckett), art (Rene Magritte, Jackson Pollock), poetry (Seamus Heaney, Czeslaw Milosz) and dance (Rudolf Laban, Isadora Duncan). The beauty of this book is Watson's ability to impose order on a riot of ideas. Still, this is not light reading—the book clocks in at over 500 well-footnoted pages. But even the casual reader will find much to delight and enlighten as Watson elegantly connects the dots from Nietzsche and William James to Bob Dylan and jazz.

My cat Dino ingested an 18" piece of ribbon about a year ago. Had it not been for the professional medical care of Dr. Weaver, Dino would have died. Dr. Weaver, thank you for saving Dino's life. I've always wanted to send you a card of thanks, but as with so many things, time just slipped away. When I saw your picture, I smiled and decided that this little message would do in place of that card I never sent.

What I wouldn't give for a drive in the Fiat 500 Abarth 695 Biposto. It's what you get when you take one of our favorite cars on the market today, the 500 Abarth, and then strip it out and add a bunch of racing goodies. You'd need a good road to drive it on, though. Like the Top Gear test track. » 6/10/14 9:21am 6/10/14 9:21am
As the Gumball 3000 commences the European leg of its 2014 tour, one car that generated a considerable amount of hype and press for the event is conspicuously absent: the Tumbler Batmobile replica. The car's inability to run in the rally has created a very public rift between its builders and the team running it. » 6/09/14 12:36pm 6/09/14 12:36pm

A lot of the time, the Gumball 3000 is everything that is wrong with modern car culture. But this year there's a Batman Tumbler competing. Now, there's a purpose built prototype race car running too. Does this mean that Gumball can now be considered cool? » 5/09/13 11:45am 5/09/13 11:45am

The comforter set looks exactly as the picture; beautiful to look at. The problem is that the quality is below the standard of what I expected from Overstock.
It is very itchy and not comfortable to sleep on. I should have checked closer what it was made out of.
This product is what I expected. I wanted a light weight stylish comforter for my daughter. It is good quality, that looks likes and the full set looks good together. My daughter loves it and I like that it has held up for a couple months with kids, dogs, and cats. It does not look thinned, faded, and seams have held tight. I would recommend if you are looking for a mid to low range priced comforter with better than Wal-Mart quality.
the comforter set was perfect and it match perfect. I just wish a decorative pillow was included in the set.
I should have listened to the other reviewer. This set is very poor quality. I would not recommend.
I recently received this set and very disappointed with the purchase. It looks very cheap set. Target or walmart will have better quality.

The phone is locked and never flashed a custom rom, purely stock.
As I don't have a ZR and never met this problem on my Xperia V, I suppose someone should maybe have this problem here in the ZR forums.
Anything I could do to get it back?

We've heard your feedback and are continuing to build a better Slickdeals. Click here to check out the updated site.
Welcome, Unregistered.
You last visited: Today at 11:57 PM
i have owned the gas powered leaf blower for over 10 years. older version has the black handle attached on the front and back. while its not the easiest to start, you have to prime it about 10-15 times, once you get it started it does the job. i just had to replace both of the plastic clear fuel lines. $4 for a replacement roll of gas tubing from lowes that i used to replace the fuels lines on 3 weed eaters. its a little bit weaker then the electric ones out now, but then again you dont have the electrical cord to drag around 100-200 feet. also, cords do eventually short out from all the stress.
whats trending right now >>> Slickdeals Live View Feed
If you see a really good deal buy now, think about it later!!!
there are people that lurk here all day buying just to resell.
make copies of your important store receipts as they fade after a couple of months.
I just bought the leaf blower fb25 last week (for $8 more).
seems pretty nice, obviously a refurb in a brown box.
I was hoping it would be more powerful, but not bad at all for the wet leaves around my house.
I wanted cordless, and I didn't want cordless electric because a battery will only last two years or so, and then costs another $60.
gas is cheaper than batteries, not to mention I just add more if it runs out.
power is comparable to a wired leaf blower, except it's portable. Not bad for $38.
It's two-stroke engine makes it lightweight, but make sure you mix oil with your gas!
It comes out to about 1/3oz per tank. The included bottle is enough to mix with a whole gallon.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Debate raging behind cellphones: Cost, value of new rules governing children's online privacy
WASHINGTON - A cellphone game for kids about U.S. geography, "Stack the States," gets rave reviews from parents. Its creator, Dan Russell-Pinson, considered making the 99-cent app better by adding a feature to allow children to play online against one another. But with the Federal Trade Commission issuing more stringent online child privacy rules, he's not even pursuing the idea.
"It would require all kinds of data sharing," said Russell-Pinson, the founder and sole employee of Freecloud Design in Charlotte, N.C. "I would be kind of afraid to do that."
The software industry is bracing for new regulations that it says will stifle creativity and saddle small businesses with legal and technical costs to ensure their cellphone apps don't run afoul of the rules. The changes, which the FTC is expected to approve this week, would update a 14-year-old law prohibiting the collection of personal information from preteens. It raises these questions: What is the value of a child's privacy on the Internet, and who should pay for it?
Businesses said they fear that under the trade commission's proposal, routine transfers of data that pose no threat to a child's safety will be treated the same as the improper gathering of information that can be used to create detailed user profiles that are highly valued by advertisers. Responsible software developers will err on the side of caution and the result will be less kid-friendly content available on the Internet, they said.
The FTC's chairman, Jon Leibowitz, defended the government's approach. "When you are talking about children, you have to give the benefit of the doubt to privacy," he said last week on Capitol Hill.
The cost of the changes to developers just selling educational apps for kids on Apple's iTunes store could be as high as $271 million — nearly 100 times what the FTC has projected for all the businesses it expects to be newly covered, according to the Association for Competitive Technology, a Washington-based trade group that represents small and midsize software development companies. The FTC's estimate is "laughable," said Morgan Reed, the association's executive director.
An outlay of several thousand dollars to design the required privacy policy for an app is small change for larger, established companies. But for the bulk of developers, that's a lot of money. Most have only a few employees and operate on tight profit margins, Reed said.
Russell-Pinson said he can afford the expense now. But two years ago, when he was starting his business, he would have been in a real bind. "I didn't even make $10,000 on my first three apps," he said.
The FTC has imposed steep fines on companies that have violated the current law, the 1998 Children's Online Privacy Protection Act. In a 2011 case, a mobile apps developer, W3 Innovations, paid $50,000 to settle charges it illegally collected and stored the email addresses of preteens that downloaded apps called "Emily's Girl World" and "Emily's Dress Up."
The technological shift from desk-bound personal computers to wireless devices is driving the FTC's push for major revisions to the law, known as COPPA. It was written before an era of cellphones and tablets loaded with apps that can be designed to siphon up a person's precise location and other personal data highly valued by advertisers and data brokers.
The push for tougher online safeguards is supported by parents concerned about the abundance of apps and the easy access kids have to them. But parents can be a first line of defence, said Leticia Barr, a former schoolteacher who runs the website Tech Savvy Mama. Barr also works as a social media consultant to Location Labs, a provider of mobile safety apps to wireless carriers, and she is occasionally paid by other app developers to review their products.
Before Barr allows her two young children to use an app, she tests it thoroughly so she knows whether it can collect data or contains advertising that might be inappropriate for kids. "That's just my personal policy, just as I wouldn't send them over to a stranger's house to play," Barr said.
The FTC's proposed changes prohibit the use of behavioural marketing techniques that target children. The revisions also would expand the definition of personal information to include the location data that comes from a cellphone or tablet, the device's unique identification number and data-tracking files known as "cookies."
As evidence for what it said was the need for updated rules, the FTC announced last week it was investigating an unspecified number of app developers which may have violated the law by gathering information from kids without their parent's consent. The agency examined 400 apps directed at kids that it purchased from Apple's iTunes store and Google's apps store, Google Play. The majority failed to inform parents about the types of data the app could gather and who could access it, the FTC said. The agency did not name the companies or say how many it was investigating.
The co-founder of Launchpad Toys in San Francisco, Andy Russell, said he adheres to the current law and supports more stringent privacy protections for preteens. Russell has eight employees, but his apps business is financed with venture capital and isn't yet profitable. Spending money to ensure he meets the new privacy requirements means it will take him that much longer to get into the black.
"I can't speak for other developers, but I think there are a lot of people out there who would say: 'You know what, that's OK. I'm just going to fold up shop,'" Russell said.
Under the proposed changes, permission from the parent of a preteen must be verifiable. Russell said that requirement alone could pose a major hurdle. What will qualify as proof that the consent is legitimate? A driver's license number? A form that is signed and faxed by a parent?
"Nobody uses a fax machine anymore," Russell said. "Verification is a wonderful thing. But to date there just hasn't been a good way to do so."
The need to balance the impact of regulations against their value to the public has long caused conflict between the private sector and policymakers in Washington. The topic of this debate, kids' privacy, has forced app developers and industry representatives to walk a fine line to avoid being seen as insensitive to an issue parents care deeply about.
The FTC has estimated that 500 existing operators of websites and online services and 125 newly formed businesses would be covered by the rule changes. The overall expense for legal and technical fees to meet the new requirements will be $2.7 million, the agency said. That works out to $9,420 for a new business, and just over $3,000 for an existing one, according to the agency's figures.
But costs for new and existing operators will probably be the same, said the Association for Competitive Technology's Reed. Building the required privacy standards into an app already in the market is usually more expensive that adding those features from the start, he said.

An optimal sensing strategy for an optical proximity sensor system engaged in the recognition and localization of 3D natural quadric objects is presented. The optimal sensing strategy consists of the selection of an optimal beam orientation and the determination of an optimal probing plane that compose an optimal data collection operation known as an optimal probing. The decision of an optimal probing is based on the measure of discrimination power of a cluster of surfaces on a multiple interpretation image, where the measure of discrimination power is defined in terms of a utility function computing the expected number of interpretations that can be pruned out by a probing. An object representation suitable for active sensing based on a surface description vector distribution graph and hierarchical tables is presented. Experimental results are shown

It will have: "Spring Stomp 2013, April 6 & 7, Kamloops BC" on the edge! There will be the above finishes available and only by pre-ordering it here will you be able to ensure that you can get a "Kamloops" edition with the edge stamp above. The coin will also be available as a regular edition coin available to everyone. This presale will also save you on the coin! Those who aren't comfortable with the pre-sale model are welcome to order when the coins come in early April!
