摘要:
An ATR-FTIR device and system are described that defect live-cell responses to stimuli and perturbations in real-time. The system and device can monitor perturbations resulting from exposures to various physical, chemical, and biological materials in real-time, as well as those sustained over a long period of time, including those associated with stimuli having unknown modes-of-action (e.g. nanoparticles). The device and system can also be used to identify specific chemical species or substances that profile cellular responses to these perturbations.

A low profile water distiller has a housing. A steam chamber is located within the housing having a horizontal dimension greater than its vertical height. A condenser is also located within the housing having a horizontal dimension greater than its vertical height. The vertical height of the condenser is generally the same as the vertical height of the steam chamber. A raw water conduit extends in a generally horizontal plane within the housing for delivering water to be distilled into the steam chamber. A steam conduit also extends within the housing for delivering steam from the steam chamber to the condenser. The steam conduit extends in a generally horizontal plane parallel to the generally horizontal plane of the raw water conduit. An air circulation channel within the housing draws cooling air through the condenser in a generally horizontal path parallel to the generally horizontal planes of the raw water conduit and the steam conduit.

An organic waste disposer 10 such as is commonly mounted to a kitchen sink 12 has mounted next to it a device 14 for injecting a predetermined quantity of bio-enzyme material into the disposer's grinding chamber each time the motor of the disposer is turned on.
摘要:
An adjustable mounting system for mounting an article such as a low profile water distiller in kitchen cabinets or similar spaces of widely varying dimensions. The system includes support arms received in telescoping relationship in channels located on the article, which are affixed at their ends, that may be angled downwardly, to a horizontal cross member that is mountable on a rear mounting bracket. The mounting bracket has a plurality of vertically displaced notches for receiving and supporting the horizontal member. Alternatively, the bracket may be provided with an indentation at the top of each flange of the bracket. In this embodiment vertical adjustment is by means of holes in the arms at different vertical displacements. The distiller is provided with a horizontal channel adapted to telescopingly receive the arms. A forward bracket is provided to adjustably support the forward end. The forward bracket preferably includes two L-shaped bracket arms connected to the forward sidewalls of the supported article which bracket arms have ends telescopingly receiving a cross member that supports the front of the article. The cross member is provided with upwardly extending pins that are received in apertures in the bottom surface of the article.

A faucet assembly with removable filter has a bottom housing portion attached to a source of water. A top housing portion that includes a spout means attaches and detaches from the bottom housing portion. A valve assembly carried in the bottom housing is movable between a closed position, blocking the passage of water through the bottom housing portion into the attached top housing portion, and an opened position permitting the passage of water through the bottom housing portion into attached the top housing portion. A filter is removably carried within the hollow interior of the top housing portion between the valve assembly and the spout. The filter makes sealing engagement with the valve assembly and with the spout as the top housing portion is attached to the bottom housing portion. The filter breaks the sealing engagement as the top housing portion is detached from the bottom housing portion to permit removal of the filter from the detached top housing portion without otherwise disconnecting the faucet from the water source.

A transport device for transporting a dolly-style trash bin using a vehicle includes a protective tow pad. The protective tow pad includes a trunk latch opening, a right wing portion extending to the right of the trunk latch opening, and a left wing portion extending to the left of the trunk latch opening, wherein the trunk latch opening is adapted to permit the operation of a trunk latch mechanism of a vehicle through the trunk latch opening to pinch the right wing portion and the left wing portion between a trunk door and a trunk jamb and thereby secure the transport device to the vehicle. The transport device further includes a bin handle cradle secured to the protective tow pad and adapted to receive a dolly handle of the dolly-style trash bin. A tandem trash bin arrangement is also disclosed.

A liner-carton assembly includes a tear-tape mechanism for use with an offset printing operation. The assembly includes a carton having a top, a bottom, a pair of opposing sides and a flip-open top section including the top and a portion of the opposing sides. The liner is constructed and arranged to provide structural support to the carton and it includes a pair of opposing sides for fitting the liner snugly inside the carton. Moreover, the liner includes a tear-tape material on an outside surface thereof, and the carton includes means adjacent the tear-tape for tearing the top section along at least three sides to access the inside of the carton. Further, a two-part tab, which includes a first part connected to the tear-tape material and a second part connected to the carton, permits a user to hand-grasp the tab and pull the tear-tape material and separate the top section of the carton.
