Title: Improvements in, or relating to, pest control
Inventor: HOWARD PETER
IPC: A01M23/14
Filed: 2020-12-24
Granted: 2024-02-01
Abstract: Disclosed is a self-resetting pest control apparatus to incapacitate a target pest species and reset itself after such incapacitation. The trap has a kill engine to at least in part deliver incapacitating energy to the target species, whereby the kill engine does not require electricity, the kill engine using an inflammable gas charge, the kill engine when triggered, will actuate and then reset itself. Present also is a source of compressed inflammable gas, connected to and supplying the kill engine. A force delivery hammer, driven by the kill engine, that when actuated linearly delivers the incapacitating energy to the target pest species by impacting thereon. There is also a trap enclosure from which the kill engine is at least in part mounted, the trap enclosure having an entry point for the target pest species into an interior of the trap enclosure, a bait station, and trigger mechanism to trigger the kill engine. A species adapter connects at least in part to the trap enclosure to adapt the trap enclosure to the target pest species, the species adapter based on the size, habits or travel nature of the target pest species. Such that when a target pest species enters the apparatus it triggers the trigger mechanism, causing the kill engine to actuate and deliver incapacitating energy to the target pest species.

Patent JP-3776315-B2 (JP)
IPC: C02F3/34
Filed: 1999-07-13
Granted: 2006-05-17
Abstract: A process is described for the biological treatment of waste water containing ammonia, wherein the waste water is treated with sludge containing nitrifying bacteria in an aerated reactor, applying a sludge retention time in the reactor which favours nitrite-producing bacteria over nitrate-producing bacteria. The process is characterised by applying a hydraulic retention time in a continuously operated reactor, which is shorter than the sludge retention time as a result of part of the sludge being separated from the reactor effluent and being returned to the reactor. The performance of the nitrification is further improved by applying low oxygen and nitrite concentrations.

Abstract: The invention provides a vacuum cleaner (10) comprising dirt and dust separating apparatus (52) for separating dirt and dust from an airflow and having an inlet (59), and a cleaner head (22) having an outlet (32) communicating with the inlet (59) of the dirt and dust separating apparatus (52), characterised in that the dirt and dust separating apparatus (52), or a part (58) thereof incorporating the inlet (59), is movable into an alternative position in which the outlet (32) of the cleaner head (22) is not in communication with the inlet (59) of the dirt and dust separating apparatus (52) and in which an alternative dirty air inlet (100) may be connected to the inlet (59) of the dirt and dust separating apparatus (52). This arrangement allows a hose (100), or a hose and wand assembly, to be attached directly to the inlet (59) to the dirt and dust separating apparatus (52). When the cleaner head (22) is in use, the incoming air is not required to travel through the hose (100) or any other ducting designed to carry air from the hose (100). In each case, the airflow path is kept to an absolute minimum. Furthermore, there is no changeover valve involved which reduces the risk of malfunction or failure in this area and also avoids the need for the incoming air to pass through a discontinuity in the airflow path of the cleaner (10).

IPC: A61M5/168
Filed: 2001-01-16
Granted: 2010-04-14
Abstract: The present invention relates to an anti-free-flow valve to prevent fluid free-flow through a tube assembly having a lumen. The valve device comprises a body disposed inside the lumen having a cylindrical portion formed adjacent a tapered portion, the cylindrical portion includes an opening and the tapered portion has a pair of beveled surfaces with ends that form a slit therebetween. The slit communicates with the opening through a passage formed through the body of the valve device. When the tube assembly is in a relaxed condition, the ends of the beveled surfaces confront one another and place the slit in the closed position which prevents fluid flow through the passage of the body and through the valve device. When a tensile force is applied along the tube assembly in an area adjacent the valve device, the inner diameter of the lumen decreases which elongates the body and urges the ends of the beveled surfaces away from one another and places the slit in the open position which permits fluid flow through the passage and out the body of the valve device.
