Abstract: Mixing of components, e.g. pharmaceutical actives and excipients, is carried out while monitoring the spectroscopic profile of the mixture during the mixing process so that the spectroscopic profile may be used to determine the point at which mixing is terminated. In one embodiment of the invention, the spectroscopic data is collected by means of a monitoring unit mounted on the mixing vessel. the mixing vessel being mounted and driven so as to rotate or oscillate mounted and thereby effect mixing of its contents and the monitoring unit being mounted for rotation or oscillation with the vessel. When the spectroscopic data indicates that mixing has progressed to a desired state, e.g. the production of a homogeneous blend, the monitoring unit transmits a signal to the drive source to terminate rotation or oscillation of the vessel.

Title: Spring bracket design and method for snow plow blade trip mechanism
Inventor: WENDORFF TERRY C
IPC: E01H5/06
Filed: 2003-07-10
Granted: 2007-09-11
Abstract: An improved snow plow for use with light and medium duty trucks is disclosed which has blade trip springs which are mounted using brackets located to direct the force of the springs in directions which are orthogonal to the axis upon which the plow blade pivots, thereby increasing the predictability of the tripping forces exerted by the trip springs as well as eliminating lateral trip spring forces which could warp the plow blade. The forces exerted by the trip springs are exerted proximate planes which are orthogonal to the pivot points at which the snow plow blade is mounted to the snow plow blade support structure. Either a single trip spring on either side of the snow plow blade or two trip springs on each side of the snow plow blade may be used, and the size of the trip springs is minimized by ensuring that all of the forces which they exert are directed properly in the requisite directions.
