Title: A fibre mat and a method of manufacturing a fibre mat
Inventor: JOHNSEN RAYMOND
IPC: D04H3/04
Filed: 2005-01-14
Granted: 2010-06-17
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a fiber mat adapted for use in the manufacture of a fiber-reinforced device, said fiber mat comprising at least two essentially longitudinally extending and parallel batches of fibers. Novel aspects of the method according to the invention involves that the method comprises that the batches are joined by holder means that span above or below each batch, whereby the holder means impart an influence to each batch which is essentially symmetrical about an axis situated longitudinally between the batches. A symmetrical influence about an axis longitudinally between the batches accomplishes that influence from one side is matched by influence from an opposite side. Hereby it is prevented that the batch will undulate. Simultaneously the batches are clearly separated, whereby resin is more easily conducted longitudinally of the batches.

Title: Autofeed mechanism for heated humidifier chamber
Inventor: HALPERIN SCOTT
IPC: F16K31/20
Filed: 2007-04-16
Granted: 2013-04-04
Abstract: An autofeed mechanism for controlling the flow and level of a fluid. The mechanism includes a body (100) with an inlet chamber (210) and a float chamber (220). A seat (240) permits fluid communication between the two chambers (210, 220). A float (250) and a ball (230) cooperate to permit, or deny, access to the seat (240). Fluid first enters the inlet (270) and fills the chamber (210) and then enters the float chamber (220) by passing through the seat (240) and exiting via the exit (280). Initially, the weight of the float (250) keeps the ball (230) away from the seat (240), but eventually the fluid level rises high enough that the action of the float (250) on the ball (230) decreases to a level that is overcome by the buoyant force of the ball (230) and other fluidic forces resulting in the ball (230) moving away from the ball support (214). Finally, the ball (230) rises enough to seal against the seat (240) thus stopping the flow of fluid.
