Title: Bag-in-bottle package comprising a resilient squeeze bottle and a disposable inner receptacle.
Inventor: KOCK RONALD WAYNE
IPC: B65D83/00
Filed: 1992-11-04
Abstract: An inner receptacle is provided which is adapted to be used with a resilient squeeze bottle. The inner receptacle includes a flexible bag and includes a mechanism for causing the flexible bag to invert upon itself about its midpoint without requiring attachment of the inner receptacle to the squeeze bottle. The inversion enables substantially all of the product within the receptacle to be dispensed. One preferred mechanism for causing inversion is a support frame which resembles a bird cage. This support frame may be located inside or outside the top half of the flexible bag. Such inner receptacles offer special advantages when utilized with reusable squeeze bottles. The reusable squeeze bottles may be oval and include an opening at the top which accommodates the dispensing opening of the inner receptacle and an opening at the bottom end through which the entire inner receptacle may pass. An end plate is utilized to seal the bottom end of the squeeze bottle. One preferred squeeze bottle includes an inner sleeve and an outer sleeve which enables replacement of the inner receptacle while manipulating only one closure element.

Abstract: A fiber optic array has a plurality of subarrays (SA₁, SA₂) of optical sensors, the subarrays being spaced apart along and optically connected to input and output buses (14, 16) through associated input and output optically actuated optical switches (S₁₁, S₁₂) in series in the input and output buses. First and second light signal pulse trains (P, 5) are applied to one and other ends of the input bus (14) and a third light signal pulse train (Q) is applied to one end of the output bus (16). The input switches (S₁₁, S₁₂) are sequentially responsive to each first light signal pulse (P) on the input bus (14) for passing to an associated subarray a pulse of second light signal (S) that is simultaneously present at that input switch such that second light signal pulses of the same magnitude are applied to each subarray. Associated output switches (S₂₁, S₂₂) are sequentially responsive to third light signal pulses (Q) for passing trains of second light signal pulses from the arrays onto the output bus (16) and to processing equipment (34).

Abstract: A push-push microwave oscillator has two branch oscillators fabricated of a transistor and transmission line elements extending from terminals of the transistor, and a resonator which is fabricated of an annulus of superconductor material and serves to phase lock oscillations of the two branch oscillators. The superconductor material is a composite of a rare earth element and copper oxide such as yttrium-barium-copper oxide. A first transmission line in each of the branch oscillators extends past the resonator with a spacing to provide for electromagnetic coupling between the branch oscillator and the resonator. A second transmission line in each of the branch oscillators has a length equal to approximately one-quarter wavelength of the oscillation frequency to tune the branch oscillator to a common oscillation frequency. A third transmission line in each of the branch oscillators extends towards a junction point to form a summing unit for summing oscillations of the two branch oscillators to provide an output signal of the oscillator. The oscillator is constructed in stripline or microstrip form wherein components of the branch oscillators are coplanar with the resonator and are spaced apart from a ground plane by a dielectric layer of alumina or lanthanum aluminate. Power is extracted at an even multiple of the fundamental frequency, and has a improved accuracy of frequency and reduced phase noise, the latter arising because of a characteristic of the superconductor material wherein its microwave surface resistance increase proportionally with a square of an increase in frequency.

Abstract: The collimator according to the invention makes it possible to check the distortion of objectives without using an orientation mechanism, which is tricky to operate, and without requiring calibration beforehand. The preferred embodiment is based on the use of a spherical collimation mirror (2) conjugate with a reference test-pattern (3), the mirror (2) and the test-pattern (3) being of .... around an exit pupil (5). A light source (4) illuminates the test-pattern (3) placed on an image surface of the mirror (2), this surface being coincident with the face of a support lens (6). The secondary light sources (S1, S2, S3) of the test-pattern (3) form beams (F1, F2, F3) which are collimated by reflection off the mirror (2) after reflection off a semi-reflecting plate (1). The collimated beams, the middle rays of which are normal to the curved surfaces of the test-pattern (3) and of the mirror (2) pass through the plate (1) and then emerge, distortion-free, via the pupil (5) located at the centre of curvature (0) of the mirror (2). Application to checking the distortion of camera objectives, especially of infrared cameras. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The calibration procedure for a pair of sensors (De,Ds) on the inlet and outlet sides of a blood dialysis system consists of performing an initial calibration with the system (4) in a short-circuited mode to determine the response factor of each sensor and to define an initial calibration coefficient, followed by a correction phase while the system is in operation. The procedure incorporates at least one phase for determining an auxiliary calibration coefficient for the inlet sensor, using an auxiliary sensor (Da) which is of the same time as the inlet and outlet sensors, defining the response factors for the inlet and auxiliary sensors, and defining the auxiliary calibration coefficient for the inlet sensor which allows an equal measuring value to be obtained for the inlet and auxiliary sensors. A similar procedure is carried out with the auxiliary and outlet sensors to produce the auxiliary calibration coefficient for the latter.

Abstract: A method of making a casting having an internal passage (12) involves the steps of forming a core (20) having an external surface configured to form the passage in the casting and having a plurality of integrally formed protrusions (22) extending from the external surface at stressed regions thereof (e.g., thermally stressed regions) prone to be distorted from a master core configuration, and positioning the core in a pattern molding cavity by engagement of the protrusions with rigid walls (33) defining the molding cavity (30) such that the core is conformed substantially to a predetermined and/or empirically determined relationship between the master core configuration and the molding cavity as if the core corresponded to the master core configuration. A fugitive pattern (40) corresponding to the casting to be formed is then molded about the external surface of the core while the core is supported in the aforementioned relationship relative to the molding cavity, whereby the wall thickness of the pattern is controlled about the core. A ceramic shell mold (50) is then invested about the pattern and core such that the protrusions can engage the mold in the event of core movement during subsequent steps. The molded pattern is selectively removed from the invested shell, leaving the core spaced from the shell in a shell mold casting cavity by the protrusions in accordance with the aforementioned relationship between the master core configuration and the pattern molding cavity, whereby the wall thickness of the casting formed therein is controlled. Molten metal is then solidified in the shell mold about the core. After the metal is solidified, the shell mold and core are removed by conventional techniques to free the casting. The casting may have holes (11) in the wall thereof in communication with the internal passage where the protrusions formerly resided.
