Filed: 1995-12-19
Granted: 1998-06-25
Abstract: A method and apparatus for displaying, to the driver of a vehicle, an introductory or other portion of messages received by a mobile communications terminal of the vehicle. The message display method may be implemented in a system which includes one or more vehicles in communication with a central control station. At least one of the vehicles is equipped with a mobile communications terminal for communication with the central control station. In a preferred implementation, the mobile communications terminal is coupled to an internal data link of the one vehicle, to which is also connected a display device in view of the vehicle driver. A first message packet is generated, at the central control station, for use by the vehicle driver. The first message packet is then transmitted from the central control station and received by the mobile communications terminal. In a preferred embodiment, an introductory or other portion of the first message packet is provided to the display device by way of the internal data link. This advantageously allows the vehicle driver to be apprised of the contents of incoming messages even without direct access to the mobile communications terminal.

Title: Method for recovering magnesium sulfate products from mixtures of epsomite and halite
Inventor: SADAN ABRAHAM
IPC: C01D3/08
Filed: 1993-10-26
Granted: 1995-10-05
Abstract: A simple, efficient and inexpensive method of purifying magnesium sulfate from mixtures of epsomite and halite. The method allows for the preparation of substantially pure magnesium sulfate products. The method generally involves heating a mixture of epsomite and halite to form clusters of lower hydrated magnesium sulfate crystals and subsequently applying slight pressure to the clusters so that they collapse to yield fine, less hydrated magnesium sulfate crystals which can then be easily separated from the comparatively coarse halite crystals. The less hydrated magnesium sulfate crystals can be recrystallized to provide highly purified epsomite which can then be dehydrated to provide kieserite or anhydrous magnesium sulfate.

Title: Intravenous system for delivering a beneficial agent
Inventor: URQUHART JOHN
IPC: A61M39/00
Filed: 1990-03-08
Granted: 1992-10-15
Abstract: A drug formulation chamber for an intravenous administration set is provided. The intravenous administration set includes a container of an IV fluid, a drip chamber, a drug formulation chamber, and an adapter-needle assembly. The drug formulation chamber houses a diffusional or an osmotically driven drug delivery device. The osmotically driven delivery device has a semipermeable, microporous or diffusional wall which surrounds a compartment containing the drug. Drug is delivered through an orifice in the semipermeable/microporous wall or through the diffusional wall itself, into the IV fluid. The device delivers drug into the IV fluid at a rate that is independent of the flow rate of IV fluid through the formulation chamber. The rate of drug delivery is controlled by variably adjusting the surface area of the semipermeable/microporous/diffusional wall that is exposed to the IV fluid flowing through the drug formulation chamber.

Title: High rate filtration system
Inventor: DEW WILLIAM FREDERICK JR
IPC: B01D24/26
Filed: 1997-12-09
Granted: 2001-02-08
Abstract: A high rate, upflow filtration system is described in which a compressible, fibrous lump filtration media is compressed to adjust the porosity and collector size of the media in the bed and to provide a porosity gradient within the bed proceeding from more porous to less porous in a direction opposite to the flow of fluid so that filtration proceeds in a direction from a more porous to a less porous filter bed. Larger particles are removed by the more porous media and successively smaller particles are removed as the filter bed becomes less porous. The system is capable of reducing the turbidity of influent municipal wastewater from about 8 NTU to about 2 NTU at a wastewater flow rate of from about 820 to 1230 L/m<2>.min (20 to 30 gal/ft<2>.min), at a bed compression ratio of from about 15 to 40 percent, and at a backwash rate of from about 1 to 6 percent based on the total wastewater passing through the filter.
