Title: Process for regenerating a moisture laden drying cartridge and apparatus for carrying out such a process
Inventor: ROTH PAUL
IPC: F26B21/04
Filed: 1987-11-04
Granted: 1992-08-04
Abstract: ABSTRACT   1.     Process  for  regenerating  a  moisture  charged drying cartridge and apparatus for carrying out the process.   2.1     Drying cartridges are used to prepare drying air for drying  synthetic plastics  in the  form of granulates  or powders.    The air charged with moisture is passed through the drying cartridge which takes up the moisture from the drying air. The drying  air then passes again through the material  to  be  dried.    In  the  regeneration, external air is collected, heated and exhausted after  passage  through  the  cartridge,  which subsequently must be cooled.   2.2     In order to achieve the lowest possible dew point after regeneration of a cartridge which is to be dried with a minimum consumption of energy, the regeneration  air  is  passed  in  a  closed regeneration circuit  (11) through the cartridge (9') to be dried.  The drying cartridge (9) lies in a drying circuit with a container (1) for the material to be dried, and it can be switched into a regeneration line (12) which forms a portion of the closed regeneration circuit (11).   2.3     With the process and apparatus the moisture in the cartridge (9') can be expelled substantially without any energy loss.

Abstract: ABSTRACT         An improved, adjustable-blade safety knife of the type having a replaceable, single-edge blade slidably-retained within a single-piece handle against a keeper plate having a tang to engage the blade in a side-by-side assembly for protraction and retraction out of one end of the handle has planar guide member extending forward from the cutting end at one side of the knife at a controlled distance from the blade when the blade is extended and at a slight angle relative to the blade such that, when the face of the guide is brought into contact with the surface of a cardboard container, the blade is constrained to cut the side of the carton at a slightly inclined angle from the horizontal and along a line whose spacing from the container top is closely controlled, thereby preventing injury to the container's contents.          A U-shaped retainer clip is disclosed which is slidably-retained in the rear of the handle and cooperates with a laterally-extending pin at about the middle of the handle to define a spare-blade-receiving space within the handle within which a plurality of spare blades may be safely stored for future use.

Granted: 1995-09-12
Abstract: Mutogenesis of the Clemson University (CU) vaccine strain of P. multocida with N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine resulted in temperature  sensitive  (TS)  mutants  which grew at 37°C but not 42°C.  Two mutants, PM#1 and PM#3, were found to  provide turkeys with  a  level  of  protection  against challenge with a virulent serotype  3  P.  multocida  strain  (P-1059)  comparable  to  the protection  provided   by  the   CU  strain.    Intravenous (IV) inoculation  of  PM#1,  PM#3,  and  CU  was  used   to  determine differences  in  virulence.    PM#1  and  PM#3  resulted in lower mortality and lameness than  the  CU  strain.   Histopathological evaluation of spleens at 24, 48, and 72 hours post IV inoculation demonstrated that the CU  strain  induced  2  times  more splenic necrosis than either PM#1 or PM#3.

Title: Method, apparatus and solution for calibration of partial pressure value
Inventor: CALABRESE GARY S
IPC: G01N33/49
Filed: 1989-08-09
Granted: 1993-05-04
Abstract: ABSTRACT      Electrodes for the measurement of pCO2 and/or pO2 are calibrated with an exposed aliquot of a calibration liquid. A constituent such as a ferrioxalate salt in the calibration liquid is converted to the gas in a reproducible concentration by exposure of the aliquot to light.  In some instances, the calibration liquid is equilibrated with air prior to exposure.  Some mechanisms of light generation of carbon dioxide also consume oxygen, so as to depress the pO2 value by a reproducible amount. The use of two different calibration liquids enables both one-point and two-point calibration of the Clark oxygen electrode and the Severinghaus pC02 electrode of a blood gas instrument.     Aqueous acidic ferrioxalate compositions are disclosed for use as calibrants of pC02 and of P02 after photodecomposition  Compositions with high iron(III) to oxalate molar ratios (e.g., 5:1 to 100:1 with 0.3 to 15 millimolar oxalate) produce carbon dioxide on exposure without oxygen consumption  Compositions with low iron(III) to oxalate ratios (e.g., 1:100 to 1:2000) with 0.1 to 5 millimolar iron(III) produce carbon dioxide on exposure with concurrent oxygen consumption.  Use of the two types of compositions enables calibration values to be established with varying pC02 values and with, respectively, high and low pO2 values.

Abstract: An electric door opener with a changer freeing or blocking a latch is described, which changer is detachably engaged with an electromagnetically operable inner armature. An electromagnetically controllable locking device prevents disengagement of the inner armature from the changer, e.g. as a result of an impact. The locking device has a locking lever provided with a detent and a control edge. The lever engages a corresponding projection on the inner armature. An outer armature acting on the control edge initially deflects the locking lever to overcome the locking action and, after a predetermined forward movement, drives the inner armature to release the changer.

Abstract: In a dual component packing of the type consisting of a flexible bag, which contains the single liquid components in respective separate compartments, from which they may be brought together into a common mixing compartment by exterior manipulation, a mixing stick is mounted inside the packing so as to be seizable at one end by squeezing together the bag sheet material thereabout, whereafter the free end of the mixing stick by exterior manipulation can be moved around in the mixing compartment for effectively stirring and mixing the combined liquid components. Exterior pressure manipulations on the bag itself will be superfluous, and for this reason a packing of a simple flat bag type may be bottomwise designed so as to assume a cup shaped form when placed on a substantially planar support surface, whereby an effective mixing stirring by means of the said mixing stick is achievable.
