摘要:
The invention relates to a brewed beverage maker with a diverter valve assembly placed between a heater and a showerhead, the diverter valve assembly fluidly connected to both the heater and showerhead. Opening the beverage maker during a brew cycle automatically causes at least a portion of the fluid passing through the diverter valve assembly to be diverted to a channel that directs the fluid to a point downstream of the showerhead in the brew cycle. In one embodiment of the invention, the diverted fluid is directed to a filter basket. The channel may optionally include a basin to collect and direct the diverted fluid. The outlet of the diverter valve assembly may form the showerhead.

A mobile cart (10) is disclosed comprising a wheeled platform (12), and a plurality of uprights (18, 20, 22) extending upward therefrom to support a middle shelf (24) at an intermediate level, and an upper shelf (26) at a top level. The intermediate shelf is adapted to provide an arcuate forward surface (98) for receiving and cradling a refuse container positioned upon the wheeled platform (12) to prevent tipping of the container when the cart is turned. A handle (28) affixes to the upper shelf (26) and a bag (214) is suspended from the handle. A compartment comprising a base (30) and a cover (32) is pivotally attached to the handle to move in unison between a lowered position wherein the compartment covers the upper open end of the bag (214), and an upper position wherein the bag top is exposed. The cover and base define an internal storage compartment (156) for isolating objects from surrounding individuals as well as isolating the contents of the bag from contact with the surrounding environment.

A first housing 2 includes a first part 4 and a second part 6, both of which comprise PEEK-OPTIMA (Trade Mark) polymer. The two parts 4, 6 are arranged to cooperate so that they can be laser welded and define a hermetically sealed housing 2 which may house electronic (and/or other) components and maintain them in a dry, sealed environment. The housing and contained electronic components may define an implantable device, for example a heart pacemaker, for long term implantation in a human body.
