Patent CA-2594548-A1 (CA)
Title: Orbital scrubber
Inventor: MITCHELL KEVIN BLAINE
IPC: A47L11/292
Filed: 2005-08-11
Abstract: This orbital motion scrubber uses less cleaning solution than many conventional rotary motion scrubbers of comparable scrub width and tank size, which results in longer solution run time. The present invention drives the cleaning element in a high speed orbital motion which results in more revolutions per spot than many conventional rotary motion scrubbers. A  flexible pad driver produces better cleaning of uneven hard surface floors than some prior art designs with rigid pad drivers. The brush motor that drives the pad driver and the cleaning element of the present invention uses less electrical energy than the brush motor in many rotary motion scrubbers which results in longer battery run time.

Abstract: A method of utilizing Zirconium alloys containing Titanium from within the preferred range of ratios of between, about 40% Zirconium and about 60% Titanium by atomic weight, to the ratio of about 30.9% Zirconium and 69.1 % Titanium by atomic weight, in the manufacture of metal articles of sports, night stealth compatible articles for law enforcement and military equipment, night-stealth personal and body adornments for members of such forces, garden and household implements, fashion accessories, body art articles, and medical and dental implants, which articles benefit from any combination of properties from within the group of being hypo-allergenic, possessing high tensile strength and hardness, having low ductility and elasticity and of having the outer appearance within the scale of gray and blackness. In this method an alloy of components in their respective ratios from within the method's stipulated preferred range is shaped into a workpiece by means of machining, casting or closed-die forging, and then subjected to an oxidation process. The oxidation is achieved through heating the alloy or the workpiece made thereof in oxygen containing atmospheric ambience in one or two cycles, each from within the range of about 250 degrees Celsius to about 880 degrees Celsius. Heating cycle duration is within the range of about 10 to about 110 minutes. Temperature and duration configurations within the ranges depend on the desired shade of gray or blackness and/or the desired depth of the formed hard and lasting oxide layer formed thereby.

Title: High concentration multiaction topical insecticides containing pyrethroids
Inventor: FISHER RICHARD
IPC: A01N53/00
Filed: 2006-07-11
Abstract: A topical insecticide preparation is provided which can be safe to use and avoids many common deleterious side effects of conventional topical insecticides. The topical insecticide contains a combination of a first pyrethroid insecticide effective for killing fleas, a second pyrethroid insecticide effective for killing ticks, and an insect growth regulator (IGR).  The topical insecticide preparation can be packaged together or packaged so that the first and second pyrethroid insecticides are stored separately prior to administration of the insecticide preparation to the animal. The combination of the first and second pyrethroid insecticides with an insect growth regulator results in an insecticide preparation formulated to have enhanced insecticidal activity against fleas and ticks compared to the effectiveness of the first and second insecticides used alone. Further, the combination of the first and second pyrethroid insecticides with an insect growth regulator produces an insecticide preparation having enhanced insecticidal activity against fleas and ticks while advantageously minimizing the total amount of insecticide needed for its effectiveness.
