Title: Ferroresonance-suppressing static transfer switch
Inventor: DEWAN SHASHI
IPC: H02J9/06
Filed: 2000-02-11
Abstract: A static transfer switch for reducing ferroresonance in a load consisting of a first switch for connecting and disconnecting a primary power source to and from the load, and a second switch for connecting and disconnecting a secondary power source to and from the load. Each switch includes a snubber circuit connected across the respective switch. An attenuator, consisting of a resistor in series with a capacitor, is connected between the first and second switches and ground and suppresses series ferroresonance at the load by reducing the voltage applied to the load when both the first and second switches are open and power is applied to or removed from the load.

Abstract: An apparatus and methods are disclosed for purifying fluid, such as potable water, to quality levels suitable for medical application, particularly to applications involving injection of the fluid into a human body. The apparatus comprises a portable purification pack (12) constructed for a single use. The pack (12) houses depth filtration (26), activated carbon (28), mixed bed ion exchange resins (32) and terminal filtration (36) stages in series.  The terminal filter (36) comprises a fine (microfiltration or ultrafiltration), permeable membrane, treated with an endotoxin-binding chemistry. In contrast with semi-permeable osmotic membranes, the permeable membrane produces high flow rates at relatively low pressures, while still safely purifying fluid to injection quality.

Filed: 2000-04-10
Abstract: This invention relates to methods and apparatus for making articles made of polyester, preferably polyethylene terephthalate (PET), having coated directly to at least one of the surfaces thereof one or more layers of thermoplastic material with good gas-barrier characteristics. In one preferred method and apparatus, preforms are injection molded, barrier-coated immediately thereafter, and remain on a mold portion for a time to speed cooling of the completed preform. Preferably the barrier-coated articles take the form of preforms coated by at least one layer of barrier material and the containers are blow-molded therefrom. Such bar-rier-coated containers are preferably of the type to hold beverages such as soft drinks, beer or juice. The preferred barrier materials have a lower permeability to oxygen and carbon dioxide than PET as well as key physical properties similar to PET. The materials and methods provide that the barrier layers have good adherence to PET, even during and after the blow molding process to form containers from preforms. Preferred barrier coating materials include poly(hydroxyamino ethers).

Inventor: MELCHER AMY L
IPC: G05B19/042
Filed: 2000-07-20
Abstract: A controller for a system has two or more operating modes. The controller operates according to a different control algorithm in each operating mode. A  manually operable switch typically used for sending a reset signal to the controller, may also be used to change operating modes. The controller changes operating mode when it detects that the switch is manually operated during a preselected phase of controller operation, typically when power is first applied. The disclosed embodiment allows up to four different operating modes to be selected. A first selection of operating modes can occur if the switch is held closed during start-up and then immediately released. A second selection of operating mode occurs if the switch is pressed within a preselected time interval after power is first applied to the controller. Both selections can be made during a single start-up event. The controller may use a status light if present, to visually indicate what operating mode has been selected after the time intervals in which to change operating modes have elapsed.

IPC: G01N33/58
Filed: 2000-08-09
Abstract: A process and a kit are provided for detecting differences in two or more samples of protein, including proteins bearing post-translational modifications and peptides.  Proteins are prepared, for example, from each of a different group of cell samples or body fluid samples to be compared. Each protein extract is labelled with a different one of a luminescent dye from a matched set of dyes. The matched dyes have generally the same ionic and pH  characteristics but emit light at different wavelengths to exhibit a different color upon luminescence detection. The labelled protein extracts are mixed together and separated together by electrophoresis or a chromatographic method. The separation is observed to detect proteins unique to one sample or present in a greater ratio in one sample than in the other. Those unique or excess proteins will fluoresce the color of one of the dyes used.  Proteins common to each sample migrate together and fluoresce the same.
