Title: Apparatus and method for detection of leaks in surgical drapes
Inventor: FARIES DURWARD I JR
IPC: A61F7/02
Filed: 1996-05-02
Granted: 2008-09-09
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for preventing damage to drapes and to heating and cooling mechanisms used in conjunction with apparatus for containing and thermally treating sterile liquid, and to preserving the sterile field when using such apparatus. A surgical drape (17) is combined with a sensor (14), preferably attached to the drape (17), to detect whether or not liquid is present in a drape container conforming to a heating/cooling basin (11).  An alternative embodiment employs sensors at opposite sur-faces of the drape to measure conductance and, thereby, leakage through the drape. A microprocessor in each embodiment receives a signal representing, for example, an electrical conductance measurement from the sensors and determines if liquid is present, or alternatively if the conductance is sufficient to represent the presence of a leak.

Abstract: Information stored at a resource remotely located across a network is automatically imported according to pre-defined selection criteria, formatted in a form usable by a local processing resource, stored in the formatted form, and provided to the local processing resource for use by it. In one embodiment, a mailing list manager has an import module coupled to a browser. The import module receives a set of user-defined information selection criteria. The import module commands the browser to establish a network connection to a remote network resource containing desired information. When the connection is established, the browser requests information from the remote network resource according to the selection criteria. Information received from the network resource is stripped of unnecessary information, formatted for use by the mailing list manager and stored in a database maintained by the mailing list manager. In a preferred embodiment, the network resource is a Web server with a search page that is coupled to a searchable database of addresses, and the addresses are usable in a mailing list.

Granted: 2002-01-01
Abstract: A composite structure comprising a preformed flexible laminate in adhering contact with at least a first and second transparent or translucent panel members (22, 23) such as would be useful as an insulated glass unit. The flexible laminate contains an undulating spacer element (25) either partially or totally embedded within a core material (24) and has a polymeric coating (26) on at least one surface thereof. The flexible laminate effectively seals the interior of the panel structure from air and/or moisture and maintains a desired distance between the panels (22, 23). A multi-cavity extrusion die for forming the preformed flexible laminate has a core cavity for receiving the core material (24) as well as the undulating continuous spacer element (25).  Converging walls within the core cavity serve to embed at least one side of the spacer element (25) in the core material (24) and a land area forms a desired shape or configuration wherein the spacer element (25) undulation is maintained. At least one polymeric feed cavity located downstream from said core cavity and said land area applies a polymeric film or coating (26) to at least a surface of the embedded spacer element (25). A plurality of optional feed cavities can apply the same or different polymers to additional surfaces of the embedded spacer element (25) and can totally cover or encapsulate the same.

Abstract: A speed sensor for sensing rotating speed of a wheel having projections. An elongated tubular sensor body connects to a flange, the flange being adapted from mounting in a housing wall in proximity to the wheel. A Hall-Effect sensor is provided within the sensor body and circuitry is also located there for processing signals from the Hall-Effect sensor. The Hall-Effect sensor is positioned for sensing the projections of the wheel through a portion of a peripheral sidewall of the cylindrical sensor body so that the Hall-Effect sensor is "side-looking". An alignment mark is employed to position the Hall-Effect sensor in sensing alignment with the wheel. A diameter of the flange cooperates with a placement of a receiving aperture in the housing for setting a width of a gap between the portion of the sensor body through which the Hall-Effect sensor is sensing and the projections of the wheel.
