Patent number: 7984807Abstract: A container is provided for storing and dispensing consumer products including pills, tablets, or capsules. A multi-cavity container is also provided for organizing and storing mixed medication for subsequent dispensation according to predefined dosage regimen. The container can comprise a tray (1) having a generally planar top surface (2) into which has been formed one or more discrete cavities (30) for receiving the consumer products. A sheet (10) can be adhered to top surface (2) using a peelable adhesive to seal discrete cavities (30). Sheet (10) can comprise pre-formed lines of separation (13) defining a closure portion (12) for each cavity, which retains the consumer products in that cavity until the closure portion is removed by separation along its lines of separation. Each closure portion (12) can have low vapor transmission properties created by a patch (24) having high vapor barrier properties.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2009Date of Patent: July 26, 2011Assignee: Future Technology (R&D) Ltd.Inventor: Howard Elliott

Patent number: 7624872Abstract: A container for storing and dispensing consumer products can be used in place of conventional blister packs for packaging of pills, tablets or capsules, or as multi-cavity containers for organizing and storing mixed medication for subsequent dispensation according to a predefined dosage regimen. It has a tray (1) having a generally planar top surface (2) into which has been formed one or more discrete cavities (3) for receiving consumer products. A sheet (10) is adhered to the top surface (2) using a peelable adhesive to seal the one or more cavities (3). The sheet has pre-formed tear lines (13) defining a tear-off portion (12) per cavity to retain consumer product in that cavity until it is removed by tearing along its tear line. Each tear-off portion has low vapor transmission properties created by a patch (24) with high vapor barrier properties.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2003Date of Patent: December 1, 2009Assignee: Future Technology (R&D) Ltd.Inventor: Howard Elliott

Publication number: 20070108050Abstract: A sensor (1) for capacitively measuring the distance to a stationary or passing object. The sensor has an electrode (2) that capacitively couples with the object and is formed from an electrically conductive ceramic material. The electrode is substantially surrounded by a housing (4) formed from an electrically non-conductive ceramic. The electrically conductive and electrically non-conductive ceramic materials are chosen to that they have the similar thermal expansion coefficients so that the sensor remains virtually stress free at high temperatures.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 12, 2004Publication date: May 17, 2007Applicant: FUTURE TECHNOLOGY (R&D) LTDInventor: Howard Elliott
