摘要:
A field mountable dedicated process diagnostic device is used for diagnosing operation of an industrial control or monitoring system. An input is configured to receive at least one process signal related to operation of the industrial process. A memory contains diagnostic program instructions configured to implement a diagnostic algorithm using the process signal. The diagnostic algorithm is specific to the industrial process. A microprocessor performs the diagnostic program instructions and responsively diagnoses operation of the process based upon the process signal.

A scalable process transmitter architecture includes a unitized sensor module and an optional scalable transmitter. The sensor module has a sensor output that is configurable which can connect locally to a scalable transmitter module to form a transmitter, or can be wired directly to a remote receiver. The scalable transmitter can mount on the unitized sensor module and generates a scalable output for a remote receiver. The transmitter module can provide more advanced features for specific applications.

A pressure sensor module and method for pre-installation without a converter module. The pressure sensor module is hermetically sealed and can remain undamaged in an installation environment without a converter module. The pressure sensor module can be assembled later with a converter module in the installation environment. The pressure sensor module includes an isolator, a pressure sensor and a circuit that provides a bus for energization, control and a digital pressure output. The bus is connected to contacts in an insulating feedthrough. An integrally formed hermetic external support structure surrounds the pressure sensor and circuit. The hermetic external support structure has a threaded process fluid inlet around the isolator, and a threaded support sleeve supporting the feedthrough.

A detachable beverage container handle includes a reusable figurine-shaped handle which can be mounted and released from beverage contains of a plurality of container diameters. The figurine is hinged to accommodate containers of different sizes. A lower extremity of the figurine includes a clamp for engaging the base or bottom of the container. an upper extremity of the figurine has a clamp for engaging the rim of the container. An embodiment of the handle has a rim clamp with pivoting arms that force gripping surfaces of the clamp into an engaging position on the rim. A user may pivot the arms to a release position.

A bipolar electrosurgical instrument has a pair of pivotable juxtaposed jaw members and a locking mechanism operatively associated with a second of the jaw members. The locking mechanism has a first position engaged with the second jaw member for preventing movement of the second jaw member between an axially aligned orientation and at least one angled orientation, and a second position. The second position is disengaged from the second jaw member allowing for movement of the second jaw member between the axially aligned orientation and the at least one angled orientation. The instrument has an actuation mechanism operatively connected to a first of the jaw members with the actuation mechanism operable to move the first jaw member between an axially aligned first orientation and at least one angled orientation. An articulation knob is operatively associated with the locking mechanism and effectuates independent operation of the locking and actuation mechanisms.
