Title: Method and apparatus for rapid sterilization of material
Inventor: KUTNER BARRY
IPC: A45C11/00
Filed: 1989-11-22
Granted: 1999-09-21
Abstract: Method and apparatus for rapidly sterilizing material including articles such as dental handpieces include introducing the article and liquid sterilant solution into a collapsible pouch formed of vapor-impermeable sheet material, sealing the collapsible pouch to form a gas-tight assembly, and vaporizing the liquid sterilant solution by heating it to produce an atmosphere of hot sterilant vapor. The liquid sterilant is introduced into the pouch in a quantity sufficient to create an overpressure when vaporized which is indicated by the collapsible pouch expanding to a distended condition. In one embodiment, the liquid sterilant solution is vaporized by irradiating the gas-tight assembly with microwave radiation in which case the material is sterilized under the combined effects of chemical vapor and microwave irradiation. In other embodiments particularly suited for sterilizing material comprising a plurality of articles, the at least one article is surrounded by shielding, which may be separate from or integrated with the pouch, and which may be provided on or in, i.e. as part of, the sheet material forming the pouch, which presents a barrier to the transmission of microwave radiation. The pouch containing the shielded article or articles and liquid sterilant is sealed and the gas-tight assembly is irradiated with microwave radiation to vaporize the sterilant whereupon the article or articles are sterilized under the effect of chemical vapor.

Title: Nonsymmetrical eavestrough fitting
Inventor: BRANT ANTHONY W
IPC: E04D13/04
Filed: 1990-07-13
Granted: 2002-02-19
Abstract: An eavestrough fitting according to the present invention comprises a body portion of a shape generally corresponding to the eavestrough to be axially received therein, with a fitting on the interior surface including an abutment member positioned to limit the extent to which an eavestrough is axially inserted within the fitting.      Retaining tabs extend above and project outwardly from the abutment member and define a slot like opening between the retaining tabs and interior surface of the fitting into which an end portion of the eavestrough is inserted and retained. A sealing arrangement is moulded to the fitting on the interior surface of the fitting in front of the retaining tabs and forms an effective seal between the lower surface of the eavestrough and the eavestrough fitting. This fitting allows for an effective method of joining lengths of eavestrough, whether they be symmetrical or nonsymmetrical, and positively retain the eavestrough within the fitting. This system is designed to overcome problems associated with the solvent based adhesive.

Title: Method and apparatus for measuring a phase-modulated signal
Inventor: KUECHEL MICHAEL
IPC: G01J9/02
Filed: 1991-05-01
Granted: 2001-04-03
Abstract: The invention relates to measuring a phase-modulated signal 5. The signal is measured along at least five different steps (P1 - P5) corresponding to preselected phase angles of the carrier wave 4. From the associated sets of measured values, at least three sets of measured values are used to determine at least three measured phase values for the modulated signal [.PHI.i = arctan (Z i/N i) where i is equal to or greater than 3]. The correct phase value is computed based upon the known frequency of the carrier wave. The essence of the invention is the finding that linear combinations of a i Z i and a i N i can be used for the computation of an accurate phase measurement where the factors a i are selected so that the phase error, as a function of the preselected phase steps, has at least three zero positions among the measured phase steps (P1 - P5). As a result, the systemic errors that normally accompany phase measuring are significantly reduced. The invention is particularly suitable for the evaluation of bar pattern images and multiple-bar pattern images.
