Title: Capillary inoculator and assembly for inoculating multiple test sites and method of inoculating test sites therewith
Inventor: THOMAS BRADLEY S
IPC: C12Q1/24
Filed: 1991-03-11
Granted: 1994-02-17
Abstract: A capillary inoculator assembly is provided for inoculating multiple test sites with small, precise volumes of inoculum. The inoculator employed in the assembly includes a trough-shaped carrier and one or more rows of capillaries extending therethrough. The capillaries extend through one or more rows of projections which form the lower part of the carrier. They are completely filled by capillary action, and the inoculum is retained therein by forces of adhesion and surface tension. A test device may be employed in conjunction with the capillary inoculator and includes discrete test sites which are aligned with the ends of the respective projections. Each of the test sites may be provided with an absorbent material such as a cellulose disk. A dry reagent may be deposited upon each disk so that the inoculum may be analyzed by testing equipment or by visual observation. A method is provided which includes the steps of filling the capillaries, aligning the capillaries with the test sites within the test device, and depositing the liquid inoculum on the respective test sites through wicking action or other procedures. A method is also disclosed for providing a plurality of discrete, liquid samples having small, precise volumes from a quantity of liquid which may be of indeterminate volume. <IMAGE>

Title: Radio test loop for a radio transceiver
Inventor: KATISKO KEIJO
IPC: H04B17/00
Filed: 1991-05-24
Granted: 1994-03-17
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for looping a radio-frequency test signal transmitted by the transmitter section in a transceiver to a receiver section for testing the transceiver. In the device of the invention, a transmitting-frequency test signal is first demodulated (23) to a base frequency and then to a receiving-frequency test signal. A control means (38) applies frequency setting signals to two frequency synthesizers (44, 45) before the beginning of each test interval and monitors the locking of the output frequencies of the synthesizers, thus preventing the output signal of the modulator (28) from being applied to the receiver section during the test interval if the output frequencies of the oscillator means (44, 45) have not locked to local oscillator frequencies determined by the frequency setting signals before the beginning of the test interval.

Title: Dispensing liquid chemicals into an intermittently flowing stream
Inventor: KLEPA PETER P
IPC: C02F1/68
Filed: 1982-09-09
Granted: 1986-06-05
Abstract: Apparatus (10) for automatically dispensing a liquid treatment chemical (12) from a replaceable supply bottle (14) into an intermittently flowing liquid stream (22) such as a recirculating water supply for a refrigeration system. The apparatus has a feeder chamber (16) into which the liquid stream (22) flows which is periodically emptied by a siphon tube (18) when the liquid reaches a level sufficient to establish a siphon effect in the siphon tube (18). The rising level of liquid (22) in the chamber (16) also actuates, by means of a float (24), the valve portion (31) of a closure assembly (30) on the inverted top of the supply bottle (14). The valve portion (31) is fed by a capillary tube (50) and dispenses a predetermined, very small quantity of chemical each time it is actuated. The valve portion (31) is prevented from becoming clogged by chemical crystals during inactive periods by being mounted so that its surface will be flushed each cycle by the water (22) which rises in the feeder chamber (16).

Title: Battery coverplate with controlled gas ventilation - uses barrel shaped elastic stoppers between coverplate and filling hole
IPC: H01M2/12
Filed: 1969-02-03
Abstract: The coverplate for multicell batteries has filling hole stoppers with ventilation passages and flanges. The flanges extend in longitudinal direction of the cover/carrier-plate. The outer shell of the stopper one for each filling hole - when inserted is distorted by the inner wall of the filling hole and at the same time the flange on the stopper is pressed against the underside of the coverplate. The coverplate has inside the rim of the stopper at least one ventilation hole. For circular filling holes the stopper is barrel-shaped. The mobility of each stopper is restricted by stops in the guidance slots in the coverplate. The arrangement achieves inspite of the in practice required movement of the stoppers a gas-tight connection of the stopper with the coverplate and with the filling hole and secures a controlled gas flow through the ventilation holes.

Abstract: 57 A pressure relief device for an internally pressurised container. The device is imperforate, forms an integral part of the container surface, and has a concave annular outer area integrally joined to an inwardly protruding circular central area by an annular intermediate area. These areas have different thicknesses resulting exclusively from the device having been drawn from a metal blank. The juncture of the annular outer and intermediate areas forms a first circular line of strain hardened material having a reduced thickness and increased hardness and strength as compared to the material thickness, hardness and strength of the annular outer area. The cross sectional configuration of the device is such that upon eversion thereof occasioned by an overpressurisation of the container contents, the material along the first circular line will fracture at at least one location, thereby allowing the container contents to escape therethrough.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To improve interchangeability for setting part constituent parts, by elastically inserting a plate spring-form clamp member, consisting of an elastic member having a forked structure in the piece part, into a space between a flange-form clamp presser projection and a bumper lower surface. CONSTITUTION:Dimension between an upper piece part 22 and a lower piece part 23 of a plate spring-form clamp member 20 is constituted to be larger than an interval between a clamp presser projection 12 and a lower surface of a bumper (a). When a head lamp cleaner 1 is attached to the clamp member with this, the upper piece part 22 is situated at the lower surface side of the bumper (a) and the lower piece part 23 at the side of the clamp presser projection 12 respectively, whereby the clamp member 20 is pressed in the state that forked structures 24 and 25 sandwich a connecting pipe 5. If so, this connecting pipe 15 is drawn in a lower part of the bumper (a) by dint of elasticity of the clamp member 20, thus a nozzle case 2 is pressed to the top of the bumper (a) and clamped thereto. With this constitution, it is correspondable to setting parts of various headlamp cleaners 1.
