Title: Disposable single serve beverage filter cartridge
Inventor: LAZARIS NICHOLAS G
IPC: A47J31/02
Filed: 2001-02-16
Granted: 2006-06-08
Abstract: A beverage filter cartridge includes an outer container with a bottom, and front, back and side walls extending upwardly from the bottom to a peripheral rim surrounding an upper opening. The side wall is contoured to define interior ledges located above the bottom and extending between the front and back walls. A planar filter element having front, back and side edge regions is configured, dimensioned and positioned to subdivide the interior of the container into first and second chambers, with the front and back edge regions of the filter element secured respectively to the front and back walls of the container, and with side edge regions of the filter element secured to respective interior ledges of the container side walls. A beverage medium is stored in the first chamber. A cover is joined to the container rim to close the upper opening. The cover is yieldably piercable to accommodate an inflow of liquid into the first chamber for combination with the beverage medium to produce a beverage. The filter element is permeable to accommodate passage of the beverage from the first chamber into the second chamber, and the container bottom is yieldably piercable to accommodate an outflow of the beverage from the second chamber to the exterior of the cartridge.

Title: Construction tile
Inventor: CRIADO JOSE MARIA ABAD
IPC: E04F13/08
Filed: 2002-09-06
Granted: 2008-02-21
Abstract: It has various layers in its structure: the lower layer (2, 2', 2'') is a resistant base of ceramic origin or similar; the upper layer is a lamina (1) with a visible surface. The two are stuck by an adhesive defining a homogenous intermediate layer (3) without the formation of fragile zones due to the absence of air bubbles since the contact face of the ceramic base (2, 2', 2'') is domed, the central point being higher than the rest. For preventing the surplus adhesive from flowing out and becoming stuck to other adjacent tiles, it has been provided for the ceramic base or similar (2, 2', 2'') to include a perimetric flange (5, 5') which will then be eliminated during the phase of machining the edges when formatting the tile. The perimetric flange (5, 5') advantageously incorporates some lateral projections or centring stops (6) of the facing lamina (1) in order to optimise the pressing. <IMAGE>

Title: Apparatus and method for dispensing foam
Inventor: BRENDAN HOGAN
IPC: B65D83/16
Filed: 2004-09-09
Granted: 2011-06-30
Abstract: A foam transfer device (600) is described, for use with aerosol canister apparatus for producing a sclerosant foam for the treatment of, inter alia, varicose veins. The device enables diversion of an initial quantity of below-specification foam from the canister to waste, e.g. to an integral waste chamber, before dispensing a further quantity of foam for use in treatment. The switching of the flow from the waste chamber to a different outlet (618) for use is accomplished without interrupting the flow from the aerosol canister since this would cause the foam to drop below specification again. The waste chamber may be transparent so that the foam entering it can be observed and a decision made by a user when to stop diverting foam to waste. Alternatively, the foam may be diverted automatically e.g. when a set time has elapsed or a set volume of foam dispensed. The foam for use is normally dispensed into a syringe for subsequent injection into a varicose vein of a patient.

Inventor: MARTIN ANTHONY
IPC: B29C63/26
Filed: 2009-04-16
Granted: 2012-03-15
Abstract: A composite pipe or tubing is fabricated by drawing a liner of suitable material and thickness into a conduit of suitable material and thickness and reducing the diameter of the conduit by rolling down, the reduction 5 being sufficient to create a high contact force between layers and, thereby, a good mechanical (frictional) bond between the conduit and liner. The method of rolling down employs a plurality of closely-spaced, skewed rollers in a cylindrical arrangement, the central zones of the rollers being urged into contact with and passing in overlapping spiral paths over the 10 surface of the conduit. Where the liner material is a fusible polymer, lengths of pipe or tubing are joined end-to-end by first butt welding the liners and then joining the conduits using joining sleeves or flanges. Where conduit and liner are both of metal, liners are joined by hand or machine-welding.
