Patent number: 6012164Abstract: A light weight protective face mask comprising an integrally molded shell of high impact plastic having a convex curvature for glancing deflection of impacting objects. Unobstructed vision is afforded by a generous vision aperture shaped like a pair of ski goggles. The mask has a projecting prow overlying and protecting the mouth of the wearer but allowing freedom of movement of the chin and jaw. An arched nose bridge overlies and protects the nose. Cushioning pads are attached to the inside surface of the mask overlying and engaging the face on the natural hard points of the bone structure of the skull. An elastic strap which has divergent bands cradling the back of the head holds the mask against the face of the wearer.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 1998Date of Patent: January 11, 2000Assignee: Apex Sports, LLCInventor: James F. Deal, III

Patent number: 5112358Abstract: Heavily soiled shop towels, mops and other industrial laundry are initially contacted with a mixture of a cleaning solvent and an emulsifier to efficiently penetrate the industrial soil in the fabric. Thereafter water is added to provide an oil-in-water emulsion cleaning composition which effectively removes both the industrial soil and the solvent from the goods. A preferred class of hydrocarbon solvents suitable for this purpose is the class of solvents known as terpene solvents. Particularly suitable are terpene solvents having a tagg closed cup flash point, of 140.degree. F. or higher. The oil-in-water emulsion thereafter is demulsified for separation of the cleaning solvent from the water and recycle of the solvent to the process.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 1990Date of Patent: May 12, 1992Assignee: Paradigm Technology Co., Inc.Inventor: James F. Deal, III

Patent number: 4770711Abstract: A method utilizing a portable hydraulic apparatus for cleaning the hydrocarbon contaminated sludge deposit of an oil storage tank with a fluidizing agent, the tank having a floor, a side wall and a passageway through the side wall positioned adjacent the floor of the tank, comprises a frame having a central portion and first and second end portions. The frame is configured and dimensioned to pass through the passageway. A pair of independently movable endless chain belts are position on opposite sides of the frame for selectively moving the frame within the oil storage tank to selected locations. A hydraulic line coupled to the central portion of the frame discharges the fluidizing agent onto an adjacent first portion of the sludge deposit so as to form a pool of sludge and fluidizing agent. A suction pump is positioned on the central portion of the frame for drawing up the pool of sludge and fluidizing agent.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 1984Date of Patent: September 13, 1988Assignee: Petroleum Fermentations N.V.Inventors: James F. Deal, III, Anderson M. Foote, III, Stephen R. Gabbard

Patent number: 4194993Abstract: A method of forming a powdered cleaning composition is disclosed. The process comprises the steps of: polymerizing urea and formaldehyde in acidic aqueous solution to form particles of a specified size and porosity, centrifuging the polymer particles to lower their moisture content to less than about 43%, blending polyethylene oxide into the polymer, spraying a fine mist of detergent solution directly onto the polymer mass as it is being blended. The acid may be neutralized by adding buffer to the solution after the urea and formaldehyde are polymerized or by spraying a mist of buffer containing solution directly onto the polymer as it is being blended.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 1978Date of Patent: March 25, 1980Assignee: Milliken Research CorporationInventor: James F. Deal, III
