Abstract: A system for sanitizing beverage dispensing equipment includes a plurality of beverage sources such as kegs, each connected to a dispensing tap by means of a connecting conduit removably coupled to one of the sources and the tap.  A manifold includes a plurality of flexible hoses attached thereto. Each of the hoses has a first end in fluid flow connection with the manifold body and a second end provided with a fitting adapted to be connected to one  of  the  connecting  conduits  when  it  is disconnected from its beverage source.   A source of solution for cleaning or sanitizing the taps and the connecting  conduits  is  provided.    A  pump  is connected by an inflow hose to the solution source and is connected to an outflow hose which has an output end with a fitting adapted to be connected in fluid flow communication to one of the connecting conduits when it disconnected from its beverage dispensing tap.   Thus the cleaning solution can be circulated from the source through the one tap to the manifold and outward through the connecting conduits to the other taps.  The taps are cleaned individually by successively opening each tap to permit outflow of sanitizing solution,  which is preferably recovered in the source container and thus recycled through the system.

Patent CA-2176132-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MIRALDI PETER T
IPC: A61L2/07
Filed: 1994-11-30
Abstract: A method and apparatus, particularly useful method is disclosed for sterilizing micro-isolators in which a sipper bottle is contained In the present invention, sterilization is effected by using a microprocessor control to regulate the pressure within a sterilization chamber in response to temperature conditions. Pressure within the chamber is regulated so that as temperature is raised and lowered, the boiling point of water in the sipper bottle is never exceeded. Prior to sterilization, the chamber is evacuated of air to permit effective distribution of steam. Subsequent to sterilization the chamber is again evacuated in order to evaporate condensed steam that covers the micro-isolator and its contents. During each of these evacuations, the microprocessor control regulates the rate of vacuum draw down so that the boiling point of water in the sipper bottle is again not exceeded. This method permits micro-isolators to be sterilized with sipper bottles full of water, without losing a significant volume of water. The method of the present invention thus provides micro-isolators that are ready to use, including the drying of the micro-isolator, complete with bedding and food.

Patent CA-2183477-A1 (CA)
Title: Variable Capacitor
Inventor: FUJII YASUTAKA
IPC: G01P15/08
Filed: 1996-08-16
Abstract: A small variable capacitor which provides a large electrostatic capacity, whose variability of the electrostatic capacity is large, and has an excellent electrical strength and a high Q value which indicates an index of performance of the capacitor, even though it is a single element, is provided. One end of a movable section composing a movable electrode is supported by a supporting section. A driving electrode and a detecting electrode are provided facing to the movable electrode. When an external bias voltage is applied between the movable electrode and the driving electrode, Coulomb force is generated between them. Due to that, the movable section is attracted toward the driving electrode while keeping a balance between its own resilience (stability) and the Coulomb force. At this time, part of the movable section facing to the detecting element is displaced more than the other part of the movable section facing to the driving electrode. That is, an average distance between the movable section and the detecting electrode becomes narrower as compared to an average distance between the movable section and the driving electrode. Thereby, because an electrostatic capacity between the movable section and the detecting electrode is inversely proportional to the average distance, a large electrostatic capacity may be obtained and a variability of the electrostatic capacity becomes large.
