Patent number: 6763894Abstract: An atomizing nozzle and fixed clean agent fire suppression system. The system stores gas fire suppressant in a liquefied state separate from propellant gas. Upon demand, the propellant charges the gas fire suppressant to provide a piston flow system that pushes the gas fire suppressant in the liquid state through a pipe network to the protected area of a building. The system includes a plurality of atomizing nozzles for atomizing the gas fire suppressant where it more easily vaporizes. Each atomizing nozzle comprises a nozzle body and a deflector body secured together in fixed relation. A conical flow passage is formed between the nozzle body and deflector body. The conical flow passage extends radially outward to a circumferential outlet slot that spreads the liquid clean agent out into a thin liquid conical fan that breaks up into droplets and atomizes quickly.Type: GrantFiled: August 1, 2001Date of Patent: July 20, 2004Assignee: Kidde-Fenwal, Inc.Inventors: John J. Schoenrock, Jonathan S. Meltzer, David Rausch, Joseph A. Senecal

Patent number: 5638664Abstract: A vacuum packaging apparatus is provided for use in evacuating the air in an open-ended package and sealing the evacuated package. The apparatus includes structure defining a chamber sized only for receipt of the open end of the package with the remainder of the package disposed outside of the chamber, and a vacuum pump for evacuating the chamber and the package through the open end. The apparatus also includes a heating element for sealing the open end of the bag. The sealing element includes a seal bar supported for movement within the chamber between a retracted position removed from pressing engagement with the package and an extended position in pressing engagement with the package and a sealing wire supported on and extending across the seal bar. An electrical circuit supplies current to the sealing wire for heating the wire to a temperature sufficient to seal the package when the seal bar is in pressing engagement with the package.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 1995Date of Patent: June 17, 1997Assignee: Hantover, Inc.Inventors: Clark A. Levsen, David A. Rausch, Kevin Kelly

Patent number: 5239808Abstract: A vacuum packaging apparatus is provided for use in evacuating the air in an open package and sealing the evacuated package. The apparatus includes a chamber and a lid movable between an open position exposing the chamber and a closed position sealing the chamber. A sealing assembly is provided for sealing the package after air in the chamber has been evacuated. The sealing assembly includes a seal bar movable between a retracted position removed from pressing engagement with the package and an extended position in pressing engagement with the package. A piston of a piston and cylinder assembly is attached to the seal bar in a manner providing an electrical circuit through a sealing wire extending across the seal bar. The piston and seal bar are connected together in such a way as to permit the seal bar to be detached from the piston and removed from the apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 1992Date of Patent: August 31, 1993Assignee: Hantover, Inc.Inventors: Andrew J.
