Title: Dual liquid cartridge dispenser
Inventor: MALDONADO JOHN E
IPC: A47K5/12
Filed: 1988-10-13
Granted: 1990-11-01
Abstract: The problem with single cartridge dispensers is that when a maintenance person looks at the liquid level of the cartridge, the fluid may be only slightly above the level indicator window with the result that the cartridge would be completely used up before the maintenance person returns to service the dispenser. Thus, it would be desirable to have two cartridges so that the user can completely exhaust one cartridge and then begin dispensing from the second cartridge. The device (10) employs two cartridges (11a,11b) each having a compressable dispensing pump (25a, 25b). A movable compression member (52) is slidable to a first position adjacent the pump (25b) of a first cartridge (11b) or to a second position adjacent the pump (25a) of the second cartridge (11a) so that fluid from only one cartridge may be dispensed at a time.

The geotextile material (8) can be carried as a roll on a padding machine or a frame attached to a tractor or other vehicle. A spreader and optionally a leveler are also provided to evenly place the geotextile material in the ditch. A tensioning device may also be provided to prevent inadvertent unwinding of the geotextile material as it is placed in the ditch (1).

Title: Catalyst composition and method for conversion of c3 and c4 hydrocarbons
Inventor: KOLTS JOHN HENRY
IPC: C07C4/06
Filed: 1989-05-11
Granted: 1990-09-13
Abstract: Compositions of matter, including: a composition consisting of iron oxide and magnesium oxide; a composition comprising iron oxide, manganese oxide and magnesium oxide; a composition comprising a small amount of iron oxide and a larger amount of an oxide of a Lanthanum Series metal, particularly lanthanum and cerium; and a composition comprising iron oxide and niobium oxide. The above compositions are particularly useful as catalytic compositions for the conversion of C<sub>3</sub> and C<sub>4</sub> hydrocarbons to less saturated hydrocarbons, particularly ethylene and propylene and preferably ethylene, in the presence of steam. The steam substantially increases the active life of the catalytic composition, before regeneration is necessary, as well as significantly increasing the selectivity to ethylene. Limiting the amount of bound or fixed sulfur in the catalytic compositions also improves the catalysts.

Inventor: CARPENTER CHARLES R
IPC: G01N33/543
Filed: 2000-03-24
Granted: 2004-05-20
Abstract: A disposable, dry chemistry analytical system is disclosed which is broadly useful for the detection of a variety of analytes present in biological fluids such as whole blood, serum, plasma, urine and cerebral spinal fluid. The invention discloses the use of the reaction interface that forms between two liquids converging from opposite directions within a bibulous material. The discovery comprises a significant improvement over prior art disposable, analytical reagent systems in that the detectable reactant zone is visually distinct and separate from the unreacted reagents allowing for the use of reaction indicators exhibiting only minor changes as well as extremely high concentrations of reactants. In addition, staged, multiple reagents can be incorporated. Whole blood can be used as a sample without the need for separate cell separating materials. Finally, the invention is useful for the detection of analytes in a broad variety of materials such as milk, environmental samples, and other samples containing target analytes.

Abstract: A compact, high efficiency, non-interruptible ac motor-generator power system unit for generating and supplying to a load ac of a substantially constant frequency and voltage, wherein a high efficiency, high torque synchronous permanent magnet ac motor has a common rotor with the ac generator, and both motor and generator rotors comprise magnetic cores each with a layer of magnetizable permanent magnetic material on the surface. The stators of both the motor and generator have an excitation coil energizable with single phase ac about a pole piece juxtaposed with the respective layer whereby to magnetize the layer into a selected pattern of north and south magnetic poles. Both of the stators also have feedback windings, however the motor feedback winding is in a resonant circuit with its excitation coil so that when ac potentials are induced therein during rotation they are combined to provide a high ac single phase potential, while in the generator, there is a circuit to have the feedback coil substantially suppress the induced ac potential in the excitation coil, and single phase ac from a separate source is supplied to the excitation coil in the generator. The layer of magnetizable permanent magnetic material preferably comprises a material having a coercive force, Hc, in oersteds that is less than about 0.45 of the numerical value of the residual induction Br, in gauss of the fully saturated material.
