Title: Baffle for heat exchanger and installation method thereof
Inventor: INSALACO JEFFREY LEE
IPC: F28D1/04
Filed: 1999-08-17
Abstract: A heat exchanger member (12) having an internal passage in which a baffle assembly (14) is received to define at least two separate flow regions within the passage. The baffle assembly (14) includes a pair of baffles (18, 26), a first (18) of which having a first peripheral portion (22) contacting the wall (16) of the heat exchanger member (12) so as to form a fluid-tight seal therebetween. The first baffle (18) further has a second peripheral portion (24) spaced apart from the wall (16) of the heat exchanger member (12) so as to form a peripheral gap (32) therebetween. The second (26) of the two baffles also has a peripheral portion (30) contacting the wall (12) of the heat exchanger member (12) so as to form a fluid-tight seal therebetween. A second peripheral portion (30) of the second baffle (26) contacts the second peripheral portion (24) of the first baffle (18) so that the baffles (18, 26) are joined together as an assembly. In a preferred embodiment, the peripheral gap (32) between the first and second baffles (18, 26) is vented to atmosphere through an opening (34). As a result, the flux can be introduced and removed from the heat exchanger member (12) through the opening (34) for brazing the baffles (18, 26) in place. Leakage through the opening (34) can serve to indicate failure of the baffles (18, 26) anytime after their installation.

Patent AU-6291980-A (AU)
Title: Rubber teat holder
Inventor: HOEFELMAYR T
IPC: A01J5/06
Filed: 1980-10-02
Abstract: A rubber teat holder has a head portion rotationally symmetrical with respect to a longitudinal axis and with an inlet opening for the teat, and has a holding edge for gripping over a milking cup sleeve. The head portion is formed by a wall which first gradually enlarges radially from said inlet opening in a direction along the longitudinal axis and then tapers back to a flexible suction sleeve which is connected to the head portion and is slightly conical or substantially cylindrical. Upon application of an axial force on the edge of the inlet opening the upper enlarging part of the head portion, which forms a flexible lip at the inlet opening, can move relative to the lower tapering part of the head portion around a part of the head portion, which part acts as a first spring joint. The first spring joint is formed by the wall portion approximately at the maximum outside diameter of the head portion. The wall acts as a second spring joint in the lower end of the tapering part of the head portion, at the height of a cross plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, in response to axial pressure on the inlet opening of the teat holder. The wall portion between the first and second spring joints is pivotable about the second spring joint like a lever of approximately constant length, under enlargement of the outside diameter of the head portion. The connecting line which (as viewed in central cross section ) connects the first and second spring joints defines an angle not greater than 45 DEG  with the cross plane. The mean diameter of the tapering head portion is smaller at the level of the second spring joint than the largest inside diameter of the milking cup sleeve.

Date Mar. 24, 1988.Method for cleansing gas from solid, liquid and/or gaseous contaminants, by bubbling the gas through a liquid bath (32), and by introducing the incoming gas into a distribution means (14) and causing the gas to pass in part-streams through a multiple of inlet orifices (64) located at progressively increasing depths beneath the surface (34) of the liquid (32). With increasing inlet pressure an increasing number of inlet orifices (64) are utilized for an increasing number of part-streams. The gas flow is passed from respective inlet orifices (64) through connecting means (24, 26, 28) to outlet orifices (31) located at a considerably higher height level (h) than corresponding inlet orifices (64). The gas flow is caused to flow out through venturi nozzles (28) and/or to strike against impinger or striking surfaces (39) with a minimum pressure drop corresponding to said height differential (h). In this way full operational pressure is immediately achieved, as soon as gas is passed out through any of the inlet orifices (64), and an intense mixing of gas and liquid as well as a high cleansing efficiency are guaranteed.

Filed: 1991-09-04
Abstract: Means for the detection of free ligand analogue conjugate in fluids from competitive ligand-receptor assay processes. Ligand analogue antibodies that bind the ligand analogue conjugate with substantially greater affinity than their affinity for target ligand are selected and used in competitive ligand-receptor assay processes to bind the free fraction of the ligand analogue conjugate. This means permits the detection of the free fraction of ligand analogue conjugate even in the presence of substantially higher concentrations of free target ligand. For the purposes of the present invention, ligand analogue antibodies are antibodies that exhibit at least 100X greater affinity for the ligand analogue conjugate compared to their affinity for the target ligand.
