Title: Apparatus for withdrawal of liquid from a container and method
Inventor: FRUSTACI DOMINICK J
IPC: F17C9/02
Filed: 1996-03-22
Abstract: An apparatus that provides for withdrawal of the liquid contents from a closed container (14) independent of the spatial orientation thereof, is described. The liquid withdrawal apparatus includes flexible withdrawal conduits (58) disposed inside the container and in fluid flow communication with external heat exchangers (144, 146). The heat exchangers serve to transfer heat to the withdrawn liquid to thereby provide a breathable gas mixture. The pick-up end of the withdrawal conduits (58) are weighted to ensure liquid withdrawal during changes in the orientation of the container while the outlet end of the tubes (62) communicates through septa (140, 142) that ensure there is little to no communication of pressure between the inside of the container and the heat exchangers, other than the fluid flow communication path provided by the conduits themselves. A pressure differential between the inside of the container and the external heat exchangers, normally brought about by an inhalation event of the user, provides the motive force for withdrawing the liquid contents from the container through the conduits.

Abstract: A vapor pressure sensor comprising a substrate having a body with first and second planar parallel surfaces. A hole is formed in the body and extends through and between the first and second surfaces. A beam is disposed in the hole in the body and is formed integral with the body and forms a junction with body and is formed as a cantilever in the hole in the body. The beam has a surface. A vapor adsorbing coating is carried by the surface of the beam and the coating is substantially uniform in thickness. It is adhered to the surface of the beam and is fully shear restrained by the beam. A strain measuring device is carried by the substrate and disposed at the junction between the body and the beam to measure shear forces placed in the beam by the vapor adsorbing coating. The vapor adsorbing coating expands and contracts in directions parallel to the surface of the beam as the vapor adsorbing coating adsorbs and desorbs vapor.

Abstract: Pour corriger des défaillances partielles dans un réseau de télécommunication (200) comprenant de nombreux noeuds de commutation (201) interconnectés par des liaisons (202, 203), un protocole de rétablissement (420-434), réparti en trois étapes, est activé pour utiliser les liaisons de secours et rétablir la connectivité normale du réseau. Le protocole détecte et résout les litiges concernant les ressources de secours entre les différents processus de rétablissement individuels, en cas de défaillances simultanées multiples. Un procédé de préservation par engorgement est utilisé durant l'étape de signalisation vers l'avant (424, 426). Des éléments de données ajoutés aux signaux émis vers l'avant indiquent qu'il est probable que la voie doive être utilisée pour un rétablissement. Une étape de signalisation vers l'arrière (428, 430) utilise des signaux émis vers l'arrière avec des données de conflit jointes afin d'alerter les processus de rétablissement, en conflit pour les ressources de secours. Une étape finale de rétablissement (432, 434) des liaisons consiste à examiner les signaux émis vers l'arrière et à utiliser les données de conflit jointes pour faire un choix informé des voies de rétablissement qui permettent le niveau global de rétablissement du réseau le plus élevé possible.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une buse (10, 10') pour aspirateur conçue pour être en contact avec la surface de travail. Elle comporte une buse à brosse (12, 12') présentant des parties de bord (16b, 16c, 16'b, 16'c) le long des côtés longitudinaux de ladite buse à brosse (12, 12'). L'invention concerne aussi un procédé de nettoyage du bord le long du bord avant, vu dans le sens du déplacement, de la buse à brosse (12, 12'). Les buses d'aspirateurs connues ont l'inconvénient que, lorsque la buse à brosse est en action, de la poussière et des particules solides sont déplacées sur la surface de travail qui subit l'aspiration, c'est-à-dire qu'elles ne pénètrent pas à l'intérieur du bord de la brosse. En outre, les buses à brosse connues n'ont pas de nettoyage le long du bord avant, vu dans le sens du déplacement. Le point important de la présente invention est que les parties de bords longitudinales (16b, 16c, 16'b, 16'c) subissent un mouvement synchronisé montant et descendant de sorte qu'une partie du bord avant (16b, 16'b), vue dans le sens du déplacement, est levée au-dessus de la surface de travail, tandis que, en même temps, une partie du bord arrière (16c, 16'c), vue dans le sens du déplacement, est abaissée contre la surface de travail.

Abstract: Pipettes for infusing the uterus are disclosed, each pipette being generally comprised of a proximal end, a mid-section and an enlarged distal tip. The proximal end has a coupling portion for engagement with a fluid-expressing syringe. Distal tips disclosed are of two primary shapes, one having a generally hemispherical distal zone of expanding diameter in a distal to proximal direction; and, another having a generally frusto-conical distal zone, with a similary expanding diameter. Each tip also has a frusto-conical proximal zone, decreasing in diameter in a distal to proximal direction. One embodiment includes a generally cylindrical medial zone between its distal and proximal zones. The method of the invention includes using a guide hand in the anal canal above the cervical area to align the enlarged distal end of the pipette with the cervix; driving the pipette through the cervix until a decrease in resistance is sensed; and then, pulling back on the pipette such that its enlarged distal tip effects a sealing action against the rim of the inner cervical opening. Once the fluid is infused into the uterus, the pipette is withdrawn.

Abstract: A nozzle arrangement used in a scrubbing tower to uniformly scrub a contaminated gas stream comprises nozzles connected to branch lines (5) with intermediate pieces (6), the nozzle distribution being determined by the length and position of the intermediate pieces (6).   Nozzle arrangement comprises nozzles connected to branch lines (5) with intermediate pieces (6), the nozzle distribution being determined by the length and position of the intermediate pieces (6). Flux density profiles (FD3, FD3') are established for the spray cone (3) of the nozzles (1) in prescribed cross-sectional planes of the adsorption zone. For each cross-sectional plane (Q1, Q2...) the flux density profiles (FD3, FD3') are overlapped. Flux density distributions (FDV1, FDV2, ...) established for the cross-sectional planes (Q1, Q2..) are projected onto one plane and are overlapped to a flux density total profile (FDGP) characterizing the scrubbing liquid distribution of the adsorption zone. The flux density total profile is compared to a prescribed value. On deviations from the prescribed value the position of one or more nozzles is changed and the previous steps repeated until the flux density total profile (FDGP), established for the scrubbing tower cross-section, up to a wall region of the tower has a constant value.

Abstract: The steel cable consists of strands made from twisted steel wires (7) inside an outer sleeve (9) of a flexible plastic. The wires are fitted inside the sleeve with spaces which are filled with a protective material (8). The sleeve (9) is made from a plastic selected from polyolefins and polyamides, such as high-density polyethylene, and the protective filler is an elastomer such as polybutadiene. The cable strand is made by coating the steel wires in the protective material, leaving no gaps between them. The outer surface of the protective material is coated with an agent which enables it to adhere to the outer sleeve by chemical interaction. The adhesive agent is, for example, from ethylene - acrylic ester - maleic anhydride terpolymers of polyethylenes.
