    摘要: The present invention relates in general to cartridges for storage and processing of pre-formulated food materials, and methods and apparatus for processing the food materials stored within such cartridges. More particularly, the present invention relates to a unique, fully recyclable food cartridge, comprising an annular cylindrical container within which the pre-formulated food material is sealed for storage and cooking, an integral burst disk, a discharge die located above the burst disk and a sensory device with information for controlling the thermo-mechanical processing of the food materials stored within such food storage cartridge by the method and apparatus. The method includes the steps of inserting the cartridge into the apparatus, causing the apparatus to heat and pressurize the annular container until the burst disk ruptures and collapsing the cartridge into a thin, recyclable disk by means of application of controlled pressure on the lower annulus of the container to assist in the ejection of the cooked food through the discharge die.

    摘要: Methods of providing for refueling of direct oxidation fuel cells. An electrical appliance which is powered by a fuel cell includes a fitting which provides sealed access to a fuel reservoir. A canister which contains fuel is engaged with the fitting in order to transfer fuel to the reservoir. The canisters are preferably distributed to users through conventional retail and/or on-line distribution channels. Alternatively, the fuel reservoir within the appliance is made in the form of a removable cartridge. When the cartridge is spent, a user may remove it and replace it with a new one. The fitting, canister and cartridge are preferably based on a standardized specification which enhances market adoption, user convenience and ease of use.
