Title: Disposable fluid infusion pumping chamber cassette having a push button flow stop thereon
Inventor: LAWLESS MICHAEL W
IPC: A61M5/142
Filed: 1995-05-10
Granted: 1999-02-25
Abstract: A disposable pumping cassette having an integral auxiliary flow control and pressure monitoring member is used for delivering a medicinal fluid to a patient. The pumping cassette includes an elastomeric member mounted in a rigid body having an inlet and an outlet. An inlet valve and an outlet valve on the cassette are opened, and the flow control is positioned to allow the medicinal fluid to flow freely through the cassette, priming it before the outlet is connected to the patient. The cassette is then coupled to an associated pump driver, closing the flow control to disable free fluid flow through the cassette, and the outlet of the cassette is coupled in fluid communication with the patient's body. The medicinal fluid is drawn into a pumping chamber formed in the rigid body as a plunger of the associated pump driver is drawn up from the elastomeric membrane at a recess formed in the rigid body. The plunger is then advanced downwardly, forcing the elastomeric membrane into the pumping chamber to deliver the medicinal fluid to the patient. The pressure of the fluid delivered to the patient is monitored through contact of the auxiliary flow control member with the elastomeric membrane over an outlet channel of the cassette.

IPC: C10G27/10
Filed: 1984-11-13
Granted: 1987-03-19
Abstract: Hydrocarbon streams such as naphtha are treated by the oxidation of mercaptans into disulfide compounds which remain in the hydrocarbon stream. The conversion is effected during passage of the hydrocarbon and an aqueous stream downward through a cylindrical mass of liquid-liquid contact material (6). The liquids then flow through a cylindrical screen (8) into an annular separation zone which surrounds a lower part of the contact material. After decantation in the separation zone, the aqueous material, which preferably contains the oxidation catalyst, is recycled.

Date Dec. 8, 1994A method registers a vehicle in a road toll facility that is provided with radio transmitter and receiver units (7). The radio transmitter and receiver units are configured to communicate with at least one vehicle unit (12) arranged in the vehicle (4). The vehicle unit is configured with radio transmitter-receiver equipment so that on receipt of a command from the radio transmitter unit (7) of the road toll facility, the vehicle unit communicates adequate data for performance of a debiting operation regarding a toll. Upon the entry of the vehicle into the toll facility area, the transmitter and receiver units (7) of the toll facility determine whether the vehicle (4) is equipped with a vehicle unit capable of performing a correct debiting transaction. The method distinguishes between vehicles for which the correct debiting can be performed and vehicles for which no debiting can be performed, and establishes a position for the vehicle by subjecting the vehicle to successive position measurements, and tracks the vehicle to a predetermined position where the license plate or other identifying characteristics of the vehicle that did not properly carry out a debiting operation is recorded for postdebiting of the toll.
