Title: Disposeable diaper with inflected barrier cuffs includes side panels in rear waist position have gasketing action
Inventor: BENJAMIN JOYCE MARIE
IPC: A61F13/15
Filed: 1995-09-08
Abstract: Absorbent articles having side panels that provide inflected barrier cuffs which promotes better containment and fit. The absorbent articles comprise a liquid pervious topsheet, a liquid impervious backsheet, an absorbent core positioned between the topsheet and the backsheet; a side panel extending laterally from each longitudinal edge of the absorbent article and having a proximal edge, a distal edge and a fold intermediate the distal edge and the proximal edge; spacing means for spacing the distal edge away from the liquid-receiving surface (topsheet) of the absorbent article; and a closing means for securing the distal edges inboard of the proximal edges in the front waist region. The fold of the side panel is secured inboard of the proximal edges in the front waist region and is disposed outboard of the proximal edge in the rear waist region when fitted to the wearer. Thus, the side panels are inflected such that the portion of the side panels in the rear waist region provide a gasketing action about the buttocks of the wearer to contain exudates and a snug fit, while the stand-up portions of the side panels in the crotch region and the closed portion of the side panels in the front waist region provide channels to contain, restrain and hold body exudates.

Patent NZ-509698-A (NZ)
Title: Very large scale pressure swing adsorption process
Inventor: WHYSALL MICHAEL
IPC: B01D53/047
Filed: 2001-02-01
Abstract: A process is provided which overcomes historical limitations to the capacity of PSA units for a wide variety of gas separations. Capacities in excess of about 110 thousand normal cubic meters per hour (100 million standard cubic feet per day) can now be achieved in a single integrated process train. The corresponding significant equipment reduction results from a departure from the accepted principle in the PSA arts that the length of the purge step must be equal to or less than the length of the adsorption step.  The single train can provide for significant increases in capacity with a minimum loss in recovery or performance by increasing the purge time relative to the adsorption step while supplying the purge gas for any adsorption bed in the train from one or more other adsorption beds. Additionally, during the provide-purge step, the other adsorption beds simultaneously provide the purge gas to essentially all adsorption beds undergoing the purge step. The benefit of this discovery is that very large-scale PSA units can now be constructed as a single train of equipment for a cost significantly lower than the cost of two or more parallel trains of equipment.
