Abstract: ABSTRACT An apparatus for delivering continuous positive airway pressure to a patient (e.g., an infant) includes a cradle assembly for firmly and adjustably supporting the head of a patient to whom continuous positive airway pressure is to be delivered, a support frame assembly mounted on the cradle assembly for adjustably supporting a disposable airway set, and a disposable airway set which receives fresh air and delivers it, under pressure, to a patient.  The cradle assembly includes a head-supporting cradle which may be moved to any one of a number of angular positions.  A pair of adjust-able head-restraining plates are mounted in the cradle for firmly supporting heads of different sizes.  The support frame assembly which receives and holds the disposable airway set is mounted on one end of the head-supporting cradle and can be adjusted relative to the cradle for accurate positioning of a nasal cannula at the delivery end of the disposable airway set.  The support frame assembly includes a swingable support arm which receives and retains the disposable airway set.  The swingable support arm may be swung to a position wherein the disposable airway set retained therein may be swung out of the vicinity of the patient's head to facilitate insertion and removal of the patient's head and treating of the patient.  The disposable airway set includes a pop-off valve assembly for limiting the maximum amount of pressure of the air delivered to the patient and a pressure control valve for controlling the pressure of the air delivered to the patient.  The disposable airway set is comprised of two airway arms which are connected to one another by a connector member which establishes fluid communication between the two arms.  One end of one of the airway arms of the disposable airway set receives fresh air from an air supply, and the other end of the first arm has a re-breather bag connected thereto for "bagging" the patient.  One end of the second airway arm is provided with a nasal cannula for attachment to the patient, and the other end of the second arm is provided with the pressure control valve. The diaposable airway set is adapted to be used for one patient only, and discarded after use.

Abstract: ABSTRACT         A catalyst regeneration process and apparatus for the oxidative removal of coke from a coke-contaminated fluid catalyst.  Simultaneous production of hot regenerated catalyst and a relatively-cooler flue gas is provided.  The process comprises a high temperature coke combustion zone, and a lower temperature heat removal zone.  Coke contaminated catalyst, oxygen containing gas and regenerated catalyst from the heat re-moval zone are contacted in the high temperature combustion zone, the temperature of which is controlled by adjusting the rate at which catalyst is recycled from the heat removal zone.  Catalyst may be withdrawn from the top of the combustion zone and sent to the reaction zone at the controlled combustion zone temperature, the remainder of the catalyst and the hot flue gas pass to the upper heat removal zone, where both gas and catalyst are cooled, preferably by utilizing the catalyst as a heat transfer medium in a dense-phase heat exchange system.  the optimum temperature may be achieved by mixing regenerated catalyst from the two zones, and 0-100% of regenerated catalyst may be withdrawn from either of the two zones.  The temperature in the upper zone can be adjusted by changing the level of the] dense bed in the heat removal zone, and this would be used for making gross changes in the quantity of the heat removed from the process.

Abstract: ABSTRACT       An airborne, free floating, lift-weight balanced toy for manual manipulation includes a closed envelope of polyethylene terephthalate (Mylar(RTM)) filled with helium. The envelope is exactly counterbalanced with one or more ballast members so that the toy will assume a position at a desired distance from the floor or ground when it is let free.  Such ballast members are made up of a plurality of weight control modules spirally arranged with respect to each other and held onto the skin of the toy by double face adhesive.  In one form of the invention, when such a toy is initially filled with helium and a ballast member is in place, it will have a static balance such that one portion will always come back to being the bottom portion. In a second form, two ballast members are placed so that the toy will remain oriented in space in whatever position it is manually placed, if there are no outside effects except gravity and the lifting effect of the helium working on it.  In each form, the ballast members are so positioned with respect to the skin of the toy that when one or more weight control modules are removed serially from the outer end of the spiral toward the inner end thereof, this static balance is not appreciably disturbed.
