Granted: 2001-12-25
Abstract: A pre-emptive maintenance system for performing maintenance and process assurance on run-critical equipment employs an intrinsic health monitor that includes a number of sensors that are used with an operating equipment or machine to generate a set of intrinsic physical signatures that are products of the primary performance characteristics of the operating equipment.  These signatures are nonfunctional parametrics that are consistent and reliable indicators of the normal operation of the equipment and statistical norms are set during an initial learning mode using neural processors and the outputs from the sensors.          Thereafter, the sensor outputs are monitored and analyzed using the statistical norms to predict the probabilities of future failures of the operating equipment.  By using the intrinsic health monitor an advance in the field of equipment maintenance and process assurance is provided in the approach to maintenance being a pre-emptive procedure.

Granted: 2010-10-26
Abstract: A non-metallic antimicrobial impregnated medical implant, such as a catheter, and a method for impregnating a non-metallic medical implant with an antimicrobial agent is provided. The method for making the impregnated implant comprises the steps of forming an antimicrobial composition of an effective concentration to inhibit the growth of organisms, such as staphylococci, other gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative bacilli and Candida and applying the antimicrobial composition to at least a portion of the medical implant under conditions where the antimicrobial composition permeates the material of the medical implant. The antimicrobial composition is formed by dissolving an antimicrobial agent in an organic solvent, adding a penetrating agent to the composition, and adding an alkalinizing agent to the composition. The antimicrobial composition is preferably heated to a temperature between about 30 °C and 70 °C prior to applying the composition to the medical implant to enhance the adherence of the antimicrobial agent to the medical implant material. After the impregnated implant is removed from the antimicrobial solution, the impregnated implant is allowed to dry, then rinsed with a liquid and milked to remove excess granular deposits and ensure uniform color of the impregnated implant.

IPC: A41C5/00
Filed: 1998-03-24
Granted: 2007-01-16
Abstract: A seamless brassiere, and methods and blank for making the brassiere are described. In particular, a tubular blank is circularly knit, and first and second walewise extending longitudinal openings are formed along opposite sides of the blank, to form torso and neck openings for the brassiere. The blank ends are trimmed, if desired, to form the desired contour for the arm openings, then banding is applied to each of the torso, neck and arm openings, to thereby form a finished brassiere. At least the banding secured to the torso opening is elastic, in order that the garment may be secured closely about a wearer. In the finished seamless brassiere, the courses extend vertically, while the knit wales extend horizontally when the brassiere is worn, which provides an enhanced level of support for the wearer's breasts.

Abstract: A lens antenna having high antenna efficiency, low sidelobe levels, and that is easily assembled. The lens antenna includes a first horn made of a metallic conductor, a second horn made of a high-frequency absorbing plastic material, and a lens for controlling the power distribution at an aperature of the horn. Screws may be used to assemble the first horn, the second horn, and the lens. Though some of the microwave signals input through the circular waveguide of the first horn are reflected on the surface of the lens, most of the microwave signals are absorbed by the second horn.      Moreover, because no wave absorber is bonded to an inner wall of a conical horn, nothing screens the microwave signal, the power density distribution at the aperture of the lens is not disrupted. Therefore, it is possible to obtain a desired power density distribution.

Title: Method of molding a fiber-reinforced resin laminate and a laminated molding
Inventor: SATO ATSUSHI
IPC: B29K23/00
Filed: 1998-05-06
Granted: 2007-01-09
Abstract: Disclosed is a method of molding a fiber-reinforced resin laminate which can manufacture a lightweight laminated molding having excellent mechanical characteristics regardless of the shape of a molding, which can readily unite a surface coat material and a molding while the surface coat material is held in good condition, and which can impart excellent appearance to a laminated molding. Also disclosed is a laminated molding manufactured by the method. The method uses a molding material which contains fiber-containing thermoplastic resin pellets which, in turn, contain reinforcing fibers having a length of 2 mm to 100 mm. The reinforcing fibers account for 5% to 70% by weight of the molding material.      A molten resin obtained through the plasticization of the molding material is injected into a die, onto which a surface coat material for covering the surface of a molding is previously attached. After injection of the molten resin into the die cavity is started, a movable die is advanced so as to compress the molten resin contained in the die cavity, followed by expansion of the volume of the die cavity to that of an intended molding.
