Title: Safety pouch for high pressure gas cylinders
Inventor: SOAR ROGER
IPC: F17C13/08
Filed: 2001-05-18
Abstract: A safety pouch for high pressure gas cylinders includes an envelope of gas permeable ballistic fabric defining a cavity between sides of the envelope. The sides of the envelope are fastened together by discrete fasteners so as to form a gas escape passageway between the sides and the discrete fasteners. Thus gas escaping from a ruptured high pressure gas container mounted in the cavity passes along the passageway, so as to exit the envelope from between ends of the sides, and through the ballistic fabric of the sides.

Inventor: PALLAKOFF MATTHEW G
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 1999-08-18
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système qui permettent aux vendeurs (11) de communiquer des offres conditionnelles aux acheteurs potentiels (15). Les conditions comprennent les prix qui dépendent du volume global d'achats ou de services que les acheteurs (15) décident collectivement d'acheter à une date et une heure données.

Title: Method of cleaning contaminants from a multi-layered mesh filter
Inventor: KNOX JOHN F
IPC: B08B3/12
Filed: 2001-10-16
Abstract: A method of cleaning contaminants from a multi-layered mesh filter.
