Patent CA-2364312-A1 (CA)
Title: Multi-stage vessel and separator/coalescer filter element
Inventor: VON PHUL STEPHEN A
IPC: B01D46/24
Filed: 2000-01-19
Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for separating liquids and solids from a gas stream and simultaneously coalescing liquids from the gas stream. The apparatus includes a closed vessel having a longitudinally extending length, an initially open interior, an input port at an extent and an output port at an opposite extent thereof.  There is a partition located within the vessel interior that divides the vessel interior into a first stage and a second stage. There is at least one opening in the partition. A  separator/coalescer filter element is disposed within the vessel to sealingly extend from within the first stage through the opening into the second stage. There is a chevron-type seal or an O-ring seal between the filter element and the opening. The input port, vessel interior, separator/coalescer filter element and output port together define a flow passage within the apparatus, whereby the gas stream flows into the first stage through the input port and through the filter element hollow core, thereby filtering solids out of the gas stream, separating liquids from the gas stream, and pre-coalescing liquids in the gas stream. The gas steam then flows along the hollow core past the partition and back through the filter element into the second stage through a louvered impingement baffle, thereby coalescing liquids out of the gas stream, the gas stream then exiting the second stage through the outlet port. The louvered impingement baffle conditions the gas stream to create a scrubbing effect on any fine mist exiting the separator/coalescer filter element.

Title: Proportional band temperature control for one or more heating elements
Inventor: BRADENBAUGH KENNETH A
IPC: H05B1/02
Filed: 2001-12-28
Abstract: A water heater having a water tank and multiple electric resistance heating elements extending into the water tank for heating water in the tank. The water heater includes a proportional band temperature controller for conducting electric power to the electric resistance heating elements in bursts. Each burst of electric power is followed by a period during which the temperature controller does not conduct power to the electric resistance heating element. In one embodiment, each burst of electrical power lasts for about 95% or less of a cycle comprised of one burst of electric power followed by the period during which the temperature controller does not conduct electric power. Further, activation of the heating elements by the controller is carried out in a sequential or other timed or controlled fashion to permit uniform heating of the water in the tank.

Title: Process for electrochemically depositing multi-colored layers on aluminum picture frames using an anodizing technique
Inventor: POINTON DAVID WELLINGS
IPC: C25D11/16
Filed: 2000-07-11
Abstract: A method of producing an aluminum picture frame having two regions of different colors is disclosed. According to a preferred embodiment, aluminum frame stock is coated with a colored maskant or paint. Selective regions of the coated frame stock are abraded thereby exposing bare aluminum in these selective regions. The abraded frame stock is then anodized. In a third embodiment, the aluminum frame stock is first etched, anodized (50) and dyed a first color (52). Selective areas of the frame stock are then protected using an etch-resistant mask (54). The colored, masked frame stock is then etched (56) so that the unmasked regions become stripped of the first color, thereby exposing the aluminum surface. The frame stock is then anodized (58) again and dyed a second color (60) so that the unmasked regions absorb the second color.  The mask is then chemically removed (62), thereby exposing the underlying first color located adjacent the second color.
