  • Patent number: 4554064
    Abstract: A dual working-electrode electrochemical detector includes two working-electrodes disposed in parallel, opposed and closely spaced relationship. The electrodes comprises a low temperature isotropic carbon, and the electrodes are spaced by a Teflon spacer. A channel is formed in the Teflon spacer for the flow of the biological fluid to be tested. The electrodes are mounted on hollow members, and the entire arrangement is held in fluid-tight engagement by a pair of yokes which overlie the hollow members.

  • Patent number: 4537083
    Abstract: A portable apparatus for imparting continuous passive motion to a human joint. A support is provided for harnessing to parts of the body at one side of the joint and conveyor means movable relative to the support is provided for connection to a part at the other side of the joint, so that the latter forms a link which is flexed as the conveyor means moves back and forth relative to the support. Drive means insures that a substantially continuous slow rhythmic reciprocating movement is applied to the joint.

  • Patent number: 4495947
    Abstract: A swash plate assembly converts rotary motion to reciprocatory motion to reciprocate a diaphragm in a high frequency medical ventilator; the motor which drives the assembly is pivotally mounted for variation of the stroke of reciprocation thereby varying the tidal volume displaced by the diaphragm.
