Patent CA-2055394-A1 (CA)
IPC: A61M5/168
Filed: 1991-11-13
Abstract: A connector  carrying  a sensor  for placement in a catheter  adapter has proximal  and  distal  parts  with  a passage  therebetween.   The  distal  part  detachably  fits within a catheter adapter.   The connector, when attached to the adapter, places the passage in fluid communication with and near a catheter lumen.  A sensor on the connector within the distal part is exposed to the passage for fluid communication with the lumen.  The sensor mounts on a tube or in an inside wall of the distal part and extends within the  passage  and  partially  through  the  distal  part  to monitor pressure with a first side of the sensor exposed to the passage and a second side of the sensor covering an exit  from  the  connector  near  the proximal  part.   The second side is vented to atmospheric pressure and a sensor signal  communication means  connects the sensor  to pass signals  from  the  sensor  through  the  exit.   A  sleeve extends distally on the connector for threaded engagement with a male  luer  on  the adapter  allowing  fluid  tight communication between a cavity within the adapter and the passage.  The distal part substantially fills the cavity reducing the hydraulic column volume in the lumen and the passage.   A method places  a  catheter  into  a  human  or animal  to  provide access to dynamic pressure,  measures atmospheric pressure with a sensor carried on a connector, sets the signal response of the sensor measurement to a datum for atmospheric pressure applied to first and second sides and attaches the connector to the adapter to fit the distal part into the cavity in the adapter so gas within the cavity and the passage escapes to provide a hydraulic column substantially free of gas.

Title: Projectile launcher
Inventor: CLAYTON RICHARD
IPC: F41B7/00
Filed: 1992-09-04
Abstract: PROJECTILE LAUNCHER                 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE    A projectile launching device is disclosed herein having, in its simplest form, a single elongated launching tube or barrel, onto the rearward end of which is pivotally mounted a lever assembly having a latch member and a release member coupled to one another about the pivot.  The release member extends across the rearward end of the barrel and the latch member extends forwardly along the barrel. The barrel is open at its forward end to receive a shaftlike projectile. A hook is carried at the forward end of the latch member to protrude through a slot radially into the barrel for engagement with a tab on the projectile shaft. A spring, housed inside the barrel, rests against the release member of the lever assembly such that when a projectile is inserted into the barrel it compresses the spring against the release member and pivots the lever assembly to force the hook into the barrel and into engagement with the projectile tab, thereby preventing the spring from ejecting the projectile from the barrel. A trigger operated hammer as might be found in a conventional firearm is pivotally coupled to a barrel supporting frame to allow the hammer's striking surface to strike the release member at the rearward end of the barrel to pivot the lever assembly to a releasing position which disengages the hook from the tab on the projectile, allowing the spring to launch the projectile from the barrel.

Title: Process and device for the filling of a vessel with a liquid
Inventor: AHLERS EGON
IPC: B67C3/20
Filed: 1992-10-08
Abstract: Abstract In a filling of  a vessel with a  liquid the vessel  is placed onto  a lifting  plate and  guided to  a  filler spout up to a predetermined distance measured from  its base, the  vessel opening  being lifted  into a  sealed filling position below the filler spout. The vessel  is filled up to a predetermined filling level by opening a valve associated  to the  filler spout,  whereupon  the supply of liquid is terminated, and a volume of  liquid still present between the  valve and the filling  level flows into the vessel.            In order  to achieve  in  a simple  and  cost-efficient fashion slight deviations from the nominal value of the filled volume  of  liquid  so that  a  compensation  of vessel height  variations is  effected in  the case  of similar vessels,  the  afterflowing  liquid  volume  is controlled as a function of  the vessel height in  such fashion that  in  the case  of  a vessel  height  being smaller as compared with a mean vessel height there  is an afterflow of a  larger volume of  liquid and in  the case of a greater vessel  height there is an  afterflow of a smaller volume of liquid.
