摘要:
A vertically adjustable web slitter is adapted to be supported by a track of a web-slitting machine, and comprising an input port adapted to receive pressurized fluid. Also, a control assembly is adapted to controllably transmit the pressurized fluid into any one of a set of first fluid passageways. A cylinder is adapted to receive the pressurized fluid from one of the first fluid passageways. A piston, having a first end and a second end, is set into the cylinder and is adapted to be driven within the cylinder by the pressurized fluid. Further, a set of actuators that are adapted to be driven by pressurized fluid are separated by the piston and cylinder from the set of first passageways. Finally, the piston defines at least one second fluid passageway extending from the first end to the second end. A first flexible hose connects each second fluid passageway to a first fluid passageway and a second flexible hose operatively connects each second fluid passageway to one of the actuators.

A filter medium, a tackified binder composition and a method for providing a uniformly distributed tackifier on the glass fibers of an unwoven fiberglass web for improving filtration capacity and efficiency. An emulsified tackifier, such as polybutene, is mixed with a conventional binder composition and applied to the fibers before they are expanded into the web. The binder is cured in the conventional manner and the tackifier migrates to the surface on each fiber to enhance particle adsorption.

A warmer and dryer for fabric articles having a vertically disposed heated frame upon which one or more articles can be draped. .�.A heated fluid is circulated through the frame by a pump that is mounted in the base of the frame..!. The frame is enclosed by a flexible enclosure made from a material that retains heat while at the same time allowing moisture to pass therethrough into the surrounding ambient. Sufficient heat is provided to warm the atmosphere within the enclosure.

A device for protectively holding a disk, and in particular a plastic wallet for protectively containing an optical digitally encoded disk such as a compact disc or CD. The wallet is fabricated of flexible thermoplastic sheet material and includes a pocket for containing the CD, as well as pockets arranged for containing a single graphics sheet viewable through the transparent front and rear covers of the wallet. A preferred embodiment of the CD wallet includes an opening through one of the sheets of the CD pocket for assisting in withdrawing the CD from its pocket.
摘要:
A CD wallet with an entrapped graphics sheet and dedicated to the storing of a particular CD corresponding to the graphics on the entrapped graphics sheet, together with a method for fabricating the dedicated CD wallet. The wallet is fabricated of flexible panels of thermoplastic sheet material, and the entrapped graphics sheet includes two parallel scores thereon and is preferably of greater rigidity than the plastic panels, permitting the plastic panels to bend along the scores on the entrapped graphics sheet to form a spine when the graphics sheet is folded along the scores.

Methods and devices for separating leukocytes from a leukocyte contaminated blood fraction by use of a rotating membrane filter apparatus. The invention includes methods/devices for preparing substantially leukocyte free platelet concentrate for therapeutic use. The devices of the invention include a rotating membrane filter apparatus for leukocyte separation as well as tubing harness/component systems (FIGS. 2a, 2b, 2c) useable in connection with automated apheresis instruments.
摘要:
An improved thermocontact welding method and apparatus for producing welded seams joining superposed thermoplastic sheets, and in particular for producing solid seams in polypropylene and other polyolefin sheets. The method includes moving a lower platen for engaging an upper die assembly for applying pressure to interposed thermoplastic sheets at areas thereof between the die surface and the platen while the die surface is at a temperature higher than the melting temperature of the sheets and while thermally isolating other areas of the sheets, and the welded sheets are coerced or ejected from the die surface during disengagement of the platen from the die assembly. A preferred product of the method is a polypropylene album leaf having pockets defined by solid weld seams for containing cards or photographs.
摘要:
A web slitting machine for cutting a web or roll of material includes an upper carriage assembly joined to a lower blade holder assembly by a selectively removable guide key which is milled to provide a predetermined cant angle for the blade. The blade is lowered into position by a piston which is rectangular and includes a torsion-resisting sleeve to prevent rotation of the piston about its vertical axis. A pneumatic control provides a plurality of control modes whereby the blade may be raised and lowered with or without locking the upper carriage assesmbly to its transverse bar and vice-versa. A unique side shift adjustment is provided whereby the blade may be shifted to a half-stroke position and the upper carriage locked when the blade is positioned against a lower knife. This ensures that the pressure of the blade against the knife is the pressure exerted at the mid point of the stroke. A parallelogram linkage biased by a spring provides a shock absorber for maintaining blade/knife contact in the presence of webs moving at high speed.
摘要:
Disclosed is a method and apparatus for the non-invasive determination of one or more preselected analytes in a body fluid expressed through the skin. The fluid is collected in a dermal concentration patch and concentrated by driving off a portion of the substantial water fraction under the influence of body heat. The analyte is optimally complexed with an immobilized specific binding partner and an indicium of the presence of the analyte is visually expressed.
