Patent EP-0880407-B1 (EP)
Inventor: MCALEER JEROME F
IPC: B01L9/00
Filed: 1997-02-11
Granted: 2002-04-03
Abstract: A test meter of the type which receives a disposable test strip and a sample of bodily fluid from a patient and performs an electrochemical analysis of the amount of an analyte such as glucose in the sample includes a receptacle (7) for receiving a container (10) in which disposable test strips are provided, and a mechanism for reading information about the disposable test strips that is affixed to the container. For example, calibration values can be applied to the container in the form of a machine readable bar-code, a magnetic stripe, a memory chip or as a resonant wire loop. By automatically obtaining calibration values from the container in which the strips are provided, the chances of using the wrong calibration information are greatly reduced. The container may also contain information readable by meter including the expiration date, and the number of test strips in the container.

Granted: 2007-12-12
Abstract: The disclosed flowmeter includes a sensor tube and a heater. The sensor tube defines an input end, an output end, and an interior channel extending from the input end to the output end and permits fluid to flow from the input end through the channel to the output end. The heater includes a first end and a second end, and the heater establishes a non-uniform heater density function between the first and second ends. The heater is disposed proximal to the sensor tube for heating the tube.

Date Mar. 12, 1998A positively controlled ball valve for flowing fluids, in particular water, for instance for use in snow making machines. The valve includes a valve housing (1) having a flow passageway (3) for the water (7), a valve seat (9) arranged in the flow passageway (3), and a valve ball (10) which is movable towards and from the valve seat (9). A force actuation device (4) having a piston rod (20) positively acts on the valve ball (10), which is movable in a race (11) in the valve housing (1). The race extends from the valve seat (9) obliquely outwards-rearwards, upstream of the flow of water (7). The force actuation device (4) is formed with a piston rod (20) arranged for being able to force the valve ball (10) in the direction away from the valve seat (4) and into the race (11) for the ball. The piston rod (20) is arranged to act on the valve ball (10), in the first stage of the opening of the valve, so that the ball at least partly rolls out of the valve seat (9). The valve seat (9) is formed with a valve sealing (14) of an elastomeric material having a metal ring (16) engaging the inner surface and the rear end of the valve sealing (14).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for enameling substrates with a coloring and/or effect-giving base enamel and clear enamel coating. According to said method, a coloring and/or effect-giving base enamel layer from a base enamel coating compound is applied to a substrate and then given a clear lacquer coating using the wet-on-wet technique. The non-hardened clear enamel layer is exposed to high-energy radiation before being baked with the base enamel coating. The clear enamel coating compound used is one with a resin solid comprising 50 to 98 weight per cent of system A, which can be cured thermally by addition and/or condensation reactions and which is essentially free from radically polymerizable double bonds and essentially free from groups which also react with radically polymerizable double bonds of system B, and 2 to 50 weight per cent of system B, which can be cured by radical polymerization of olefinic double bonds during exposure to high-energy radiation. The weight per cent values total 100 weight per cent and the C=C equivalent weight of the total resin solid of A and B is between 300 and 1000.
