摘要:
An ultrasonic method and apparatus for measuring liquid level in a vessel employing an acoustic waveguide (16) connected to an ultrasonic transducer (14) and the vessel (18). Guiding means (24) situated inside a vessel (18) directs the acoustic energy pulse to a surface (22) of the liquid. The acoustic energy pulse is reflected from the surface (22) and returned along the guiding means (24) to the acoustic waveguide (16). A pulser/receiver (10) connected thereto measures the reflected acoustic energy pulse for determining liquid level from the transit time.
摘要:
A device for controlling relative humidity in an environment with a solidified humectant composition. The solidified humectant composition is made from a humectant salt, water, and a carrier. The solidified humectant may be formed into a tablet with the aid of a binder, or it may be contained within a thermoformed felt material, a sachet, or a water permeable canister. In a preferred embodiment, the sachet is made of a micro-perforated polyester/paper/polyethylene material. Preferred humectant salts include CaCl2, K2CO3, LiCl, NaCl, K2SO4, and combinations thereof. A preferred embodiment of the present invention includes the use of one or more of: an antimicrobial agent, activated carbon, a volatile organic, a moisture adsorber and an oxygen absorber, in combination with the solidified humectant salt.

摘要:
A lamp assembly including at least one light source, a housing formed from a first moisture barrier composition and a sealing cap formed from a second moisture barrier composition, wherein the at least one light source is arranged within the housing and the sealing cap is hermetically bonded to the housing and the at least one light source, and the sealing cap is arranged to enclose the at least one light source within a volume formed by the housing and the sealing cap.
摘要:
Instead of direct introduction into recipes of food products, for example, flavorant emitting compositions including at least one flavorant are in combination with a stabilizer, e.g., adsorbent or absorbent, and indirectly added to the food product via a closed environment of a package by readily releasing the flavorant from the substrate. When a device, such as a porous sachet comprising the compositions is placed in a closed environment of a food package, for example, a constant fresh aroma and/or taste is delivered to the closed atmosphere of the packaged foodstuff and deposited onto the foodstuff per se for preserving and maintaining product freshness for enhanced consumer acceptance. Representative packaged products would include snack foods, such as barbecue chips, potato chips, bakery products, to name but a few.
摘要:
A method of selecting an appropriate resin bonded sorbent composition which may be used at least for in part making an enclosure to protect contents from external humidity including the steps of: a) selecting a plurality of resins, a plurality of sorbents and a plurality of ratios therebetween to form a plurality of composites; b) calculating a plurality of failure times for the plurality of composites, wherein each failure time of the plurality of failure times is based on when an internal relative humidity of each composite of the plurality of composites is equal to the maximum internal relative humidity; c) determining which of the plurality of failure times is greater; and, d) selecting one composite of the plurality of composites based on the result of step (c).
摘要:
An oxygen-absorbing composition, device, and method for oxygen scavenging in a low moisture environment are provided. The present invention provides an oxygen absorbing composition which includes an oxygen reducing agent, water, a carrier, an electrolyte salt, and a humectant salt, which may be the same as the electrolyte salt, present in an amount sufficient to reduce the water activity of the composition to below 0.6. Also included are methods of using the composition.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for recording a watermark pattern on a color recording medium that forms an image using a number N of colorants, the method comprising the step of forming the watermark pattern using at least two colorants, but fewer than N colorants.
