Title: Methods and apparatus for making paint roller covers with thermoplastic cores
Inventor: HUMPHREY DENNIS D
IPC: B05C17/02
Filed: 1999-10-19
Granted: 2008-03-11
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for making paint roller covers by spirally wrapping a strip of hot thermoplastic film onto an exterior surface of a thermoplastic tubular form and spirally wrapping fabric strip having a thermoplastic backing onto the spiral wound strip of thermoplastic film while the thermoplastic film is still sufficiently hot to cause the thermoplastic film to flow into interstices in the fabric backing and permanently bond the fabric strip to the exterior surface of the tubular form. The tubular form may either comprise a plurality of preformed tubes or be formed by spirally wrapping a continuous length of core strip material around a mandrel while maintaining the adjacent edges of the core strip material in closely spaced, nonoverlapping relation to form a spiral seam between the core strip edges. In the latter case, the adjacent edges of the hot thermoplastic film may be overlapped outwardly of the spiral seam to provide additional adhesive at the spiral seam for flow into the spiral seam and into the interstices in the fabric backing outwardly of the spiral seam.

Abstract: A remediation composition for cleaning a soil mass and ground water contaminated with an organic contaminant and for reducing emanation of foul air from contaminated sites. The composition comprises an aqueous carrier, TRITON X-100 as a first surfactant, and a second surfactant which is selected from a group of surfactants consisting of TRITON X-15 5 and TRITON X- 190. In presence of certain hydrocarbon, a total contaminant-emulsifying capacity of the remediation composition is greater than a sum of the contaminant-emulsifying capacities of the first and second surfactants. In another aspect of the present invention, surfactants TRITON X-15. TRITON X-35 and TRITON X-45 are used in association with TRITON X-100 such that their miscibilities with an aqueous carrier in the presence of TRITON X-100 is greater than their solubilities with the aqueous carrier alone. In yet another aspect of the invention, the remediation solutions are applied in situ to a contaminated site and the ground water table in the contaminated soil is repeatedly raised above and lowered below the contaminated region during the entire remediation process.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of determining the flow rate and direction of a medium within a conduit. The method is comprised the steps of coupling a pair of sensors to the conduit at a first and second location thereof. A first vibration is imposed upon the conduit at a position proximate a first sensor in the pair of sensors, the position being outside of a region located between the pair of sensors which are separated by a distance and mounted to the conduit. A first transmitted vibration is detected, propagating along the conduit in response to the imposed vibration at both sensors.      The above defined steps are repeated wherein a second vibration is imposed at a second location proximate a second sensor in the pair of sensors, the position being outside of said region located between the pair of sensors. The center velocity of each transmitted vibration is determined by computing an envelope correlation function. The direction of fluid flow and the velocity of the medium within the conduit is then calculated.

Title: Dielectric breakdown chemical reactor for liquids
Inventor: CHOW ROSS SAM
IPC: B01J19/00
Filed: 2000-02-15
Granted: 2009-10-06
Abstract: This invention relates to the enhancement of chemical reactions by applying a high frequency electric field to a material. The frequency and amplitude of the electric field are selected in accordance with properties of the reacting components in a bulk of chemical reactor. In general, the high frequency range is determined by the dielectric properties of reactant(s), that is, at any given temperature, when, for example, the specific conductivity starts to grow from its low frequency value. Typically, frequencies in the range of 100 kHz to 100 MHz or greater are suitable for the enhancement of the reactions.  An electric field having Fourier components that when applied to a chemical process exhibits growth in the real part of conductivity relative to the low frequency value is of particular importance.
