Patent number: 6949214Abstract: A filter having a substantially cylindrical or slightly tapered body design which has a plurality of elongated apertures formed therethrough. Each aperture is defined side to side by a pair of elongated, wedge-like rib members disposed one on each side of each aperture, and top to bottom by a pair of cross members which present a substantially square top side and an angularly declining bottom side. The end effect is a substantially rectangular entry aperture for fluid flow with the exception of the declining bottom side which promotes smooth, low resistance entry flow. The present invention is also directed to a method of manufacture of filters having the above-described characteristics. In particular, the preferred method involves an injection molding process in which a molten plastic (such as high-density polyethylene, HDPE) is injected into a two-part mold.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2002Date of Patent: September 27, 2005Assignee: Gambro, Inc.Inventor: Helmut Frey

Patent number: 6450931Abstract: A device for removing eyelets, in particular stainless steel eyelets, from textile or plastics sheets is provided. Eyelets in textiles or plastics sheets, for example in lorry tarpaulins, wear through in the course of their use and thus have as a rule a significantly shorter service life than the textile or plastics sheet. Thus, it is usual and economically worthwhile to replace the worn-through eyelets with new ones, in order thus to be able to exploit the total service life of the textile or plastics sheet. The removal of eyelets previously has been effected as a rule by hand, which is time consuming and uneconomical. Thus, there is provided a device for removing eyelets, in particular stainless steel eyelets, from textile or plastics sheets, having a claw head for pressing a beading of the eyelet in the direction of the eyelet center point or in the opposite direction.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2000Date of Patent: September 17, 2002Inventor: Helmut Frey

Patent number: 5904164Abstract: In order to remove, after treatment of wafer-shaped articles (2), prefera a silicon wafer, with a treatment medium, preferably with an etching fluid, on the bottom of wafer-shaped article (2), i.e. the side facing chuck (1) for wafer-shaped article (2), residual treatment medium adhering in its edge area, there is nozzle (20) from which flushing liquid, preferably deionized water, can be sprayed onto the outside edge of article (2) and between chuck (1) and wafer-shaped article (2). The flushing liquid, which penetrates more or less deeply, depending on the pressure with which the flushing liquid emerges from nozzle (20) and depending on the alignment of nozzle (20) relative to wafer-shaped article (2), is flung off again by the rotation of wafer-shaped article (2) and in doing so entrains residues of treatment medium. For optimum action the alignment of nozzle (20) can be changed relative to edge (16) of wafer-shaped article (2).Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 1998Date of Patent: May 18, 1999Assignee: SEZ Semiconductor-Equipment Zubehor fur die Halbleiterfertigung AGInventors: Gerald Wagner, Helmut Frey
