A61M 1/06
US Classification:
604 74, 604408

Standardized Binding Elements

View page
US Patent:
20070189843, Aug 16, 2007
Filed:
Oct 21, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/531628
Inventors:
Phillip Crudo - Round Lake IL, US
Craig Simdon - Round Lake IL, US
Jason Magid - Chicago IL, US
Amy McManus - Chicago IL, US
Daniel Jones - Gurnee IL, US
Assignee:
GENERAL BINDING CORPORATION - Northbrook IL
International Classification:
B42F 13/02
US Classification:
402019000
Abstract:
The invention provides a group of standardized plastic binding elements that include two, three, four, five, or seven fingers that are spaced along the spine at precise locations to accommodate the perforations spaced according to specific standardized loose-leaf hole patterns. The binding elements preferably have spines likewise corresponding to at least the length of specific standardized paper sizes, i.e., 8.27 inches (21 cm), 8.5 inches (21.5 cm) 11 inches (28 cm), 11.69 inches (30 cm), 14 inches (39.5), and 16 inches (40.5 cm). The fingers of the binding elements either secure together or to the spine when in the closed position, or the binding elements are held in the closed position by other structure such that the binding elements may be utilized to bind a stack of standard, loose-leaf sheets without the use of a binding machine. Further, the invention provides a relatively small size binding element that may be utilized to provide a relatively small bound book wherein the pages can be turned without binding.

Automotive Fuel Filler Pipe Valve Assembly

View page
US Patent:
59312068, Aug 3, 1999
Filed:
Apr 17, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/062519
Inventors:
Craig L. Simdon - Des Plaines IL
Jason K. Trotter - Aurora IL
Eric G. Parker - Chicago IL
Assignee:
Illinois Tool Works Inc. - Glenview IL
International Classification:
B65B 104
US Classification:
141312
Abstract:
A fuel filler pipe valve assembly having a valve member with a partially substantially spherical portion pivotally disposed in a valve receptacle of a housing member, the valve member having a passage with an inlet opening and an outlet opening, and the housing having an inlet opening coupled to the fuel filler pipe and an outlet opening coupled to a body panel. The valve member is pivotal in the valve receptacle to open and close the fuel filler pipe. The valve member is formed of a valve shell portion and a valve cover portion, and the housing member is formed of a housing shell portion and a housing cover portion. A rotatable drive gear disposed through the housing member is engagable with a gear member on a truncated portion of the valve member to pivot the valve member in the housing member.

Four-Way Articulating Headrest System For Automotive Seats

View page
US Patent:
60071540, Dec 28, 1999
Filed:
Sep 16, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/714248
Inventors:
Eric G. Parker - Elgin IL
Craig L. Simdon - Cambridge WI
Assignee:
Illinois Tool Works Inc. - Glenview IL
International Classification:
A47C 736
B60N 248
US Classification:
297410
Abstract:
An automotive vehicle headrest system comprises a pair of laterally spaced upstanding support shafts or bolt members for threaded engagement within internally threaded or tapped holes, sockets, or sleeves defined within an automotive vehicle seat frame. The headrest component includes bracket members, having disk members incorporated therein, which are mounted upon the shafts or bolts such that the bracket/disk assemblies are normally mis-aligned with respect to each other, and the disk members define two-point contact systems with the shaft or bolts so as to support the headrest at a predetermined elevational position. Vertical positional adjustment of the headrest is achieved by causing the bracket members to be aligned with each other thereby releasing the two-point contact system defined with the shafts or bolts whereupon movement of the headrest to a new elevational position, the two-point contact system is re-established so as to again permit support of the headrest upon the support shafts or bolt members.

Automotive Fuel Filler Pipe Ball Valve Assembly

View page
US Patent:
59017600, May 11, 1999
Filed:
Dec 12, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/991793
Inventors:
Eric G. Parker - Chicago IL
Craig L. Simdon - Cambridge WI
Jason K. Trotter - Arurora IL
Assignee:
Illinois Tool Works Inc. - Glenview IL
International Classification:
B65B1/04
US Classification:
141312
Abstract:
An automotive fuel filler pipe ball valve assembly mountable in an opening of an automotive body panel. The assembly includes a housing member having a ball valve receptacle communicating with a housing inlet opening and a housing outlet opening, and a ball valve member having a passage with an inlet opening and an outlet opening. The ball valve member includes a stem member extending through an opening in the housing member, wherein the stem member is engageable by an actuation member to pivot the ball valve member in the housing member, thereby opening and closing the ball valve assembly. One or more sealing members form leak-proof seals between the housing member and the ball valve member. The assembly is mountable onto the body panel by resilient engagement members breakable to separate the housing member from the automotive body panel during impact.

Rotary Fuel Filler Valve Actuator

View page
US Patent:
62063391, Mar 27, 2001
Filed:
Oct 4, 1999
Appl. No.:
9/411953
Inventors:
Eric G. Parker - Chicago IL
Craig L. Simdon - Des Plaines IL
Assignee:
Illinois Tool Works Inc. - Glenview IL
International Classification:
F16K31/05;35/00
US Classification:
25112903
Abstract:
A rotary valve actuator for actuating a valve pivotally disposed in a housing and movable between first and second positions. The actuator includes an actuator member coupled to the valve, a resilient arm coupled to one of the housing or the actuator member, and a wall member protruding from the one of the housing or the actuator member to which the resilient arm is not coupled. An arm tab protruding from the resilient arm is aligned with and preferably protrudes through an opening of the wall member when the valve is in the first position, and an arm engagement member of the resilient arm is engaged with a wall engagement portion of the wall member when the valve is in the first position. The resilient arm is flexible away from the wall member to disengage the arm engagement member from the wall engagement portion. The actuator is operable remotely by one or more flexible straps coupled to the actuator member.
