Title: A method of forming a yieldable thermal bond in an autoclavable medical product implement and the like.
Inventor: GARVER EDWARD B SR
IPC: C08K5/54
Filed: 1982-10-25
Abstract: The thermal bonding characteristics of a polyvinyl chloride series resin composition is altered by the incorporation of measured amounts of silicone and, preferably, coated calcium carbonate. This alteration of the resin composition permits the formation of a thermal bond (45) between the resin composition (46) and a compatible material (28), which bond is selectively breakable in response to the application of force which does not cause permanent deformation of the materials, regardless of repeated or prolonged heat exposure. The method is ideally suited for forming frangible connections (45) in medical product implements (10) which must undergo sterilization by autoclaving.

Title: Purging system for a blood tubing network.
Inventor: WILLIAMSON WARREN P IV
IPC: A61M37/00
Filed: 1987-02-25
Abstract: Method and apparatus for purging air from a tubing network finds utility as a component part of a blood constituent processing system (10). Collection and returned needles (12, 14) of a disposable tubing network are initially contained within a common antiseptic enclosure (16). A purge fluid (e.g., saline solution) may then be introduced into the interior chamber of the enclosure (16) via one of the needles (12, 14) and withdrawn from the interior chamber of the enclosure (16) via the other of the needles (12, 14). Air entrained in the tubing network may thus be trapped within the common enclosure (16) itself and/or vented therefrom via a one-way valve and hydrophobic microbe filter (72) and/or the entrained air pockets may be encouraged to flow to a separate suitable air trap location (50) of the tubing network whereby the network is purged of air.

Title: Portable self-contained cooler/freezer apparatus for use on common carrier type unrefrigerated truck lines and the like
IPC: F25D3/08
Filed: 1989-05-01
Abstract: A transportable container for carrying refrigerated products in frozen (sub zero) or refrigerated (for example, 40 DEG F) temperatures includes a structural container (12) having an insulated outer shell (14, 15, 16, 17) with an access doorway (21). The upper portion (26) of the container (12) includes a transverse perforated baffle (25) and positioned above the baffle (25) are a pair of spaced apart canisters (27, 28) containing liquid refrigerant (CO2, for example). A gas or liquid feeder tube (32) penetrates each bottle (27, 28) and communicates with an on/off valve. A feeder tube (32) can draw liquid to dispense for cooling, or it can release gas and pressure within the canister (27, 28), to boil the CO2. When CO2 reaches its boiling point, the canister (27, 28), its bracket, and the cold plate reach very cold temperatures to cool the cargo area. The gas is released through copper tubing over the cold plate to act as a method for convection.

Patent EP-0629138-A4 (EP)
Title: Material processing.
IPC: C10B19/00
Filed: 1993-03-04
Abstract: A material treatment process, and particularly such a process for the destruction of waste material. The process involves pyrolysis of waste material within a plasma torch and a hot zone which receives the material stream from the torch. Waste material is injected into the torch as a fine spray and/or as a gas, and the direction of injection is generally transverse to the direction of movement of the plasma through the torch. The location of the injection is such that the waste material is injected directly into the core of the plasma. The hot zone is of a length such as to ensure complete pyrolysis of the material, and that zone is immediately followed by a cooling zone in which the material is subjected to very rapid quenching. The material stream entering the cooling zone is at a temperature above that at which CO in the material stream tends to re-form into CO2 in the material stream includes particulate carbon which is used to absorb residual toxic compounds when the material is subjected to an alkaline environment within the cooling zone and/or a scrubber following that zone.
