Patents by Inventor Markus Braendli

Markus Braendli has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8617359
    Abstract: A method for distilling a starting material that includes a liquid Fd to be distilled, uses a gas-tight container system that is resistant to excess and/or negative pressure. The container system includes a condenser for condensing the liquid Fd, which has turned to vapor and whose temperature can be adjusted, to give the condensation product, and a vapor chamber connecting the evaporator and the condenser. The pressure and temperature in the vapor chamber are monitored and controlled so that distillation is always carried out in a range close to the saturation vapor pressure of the liquid Fd to be distilled. If the pressure is too high, it is reduced so that especially foreign gas is removed. An installation includes a container for distillation according to method.

  • Patent number: 8434241
    Abstract: A method for drying a wet material, which comprises a liquid Fd to be distilled, uses a gas-tight container system resistant to excess and/or negative pressure and a drying container, a condenser and a vapor chamber connecting the drying container and condenser. The temperature adjustable drying container contains the wet material. The liquid Fd is turned to vapor in the temperature adjustable vapor chamber. The condenser condenses the vapor to give the condensation product. The pressure in the vapor chamber is monitored and controlled so that drying and distillation are always carried out in a range close to the saturation vapor pressure of the liquid Fd to be distilled. The pressure and the temperature in the vapor chamber are continuously determined. If the pressure goes above the upper limit of the range, the pressure is reduced in such a manner that especially foreign gas is removed.

  • Publication number: 20100286636
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a disposable nozzle for inserting into a hand piece for treating and cleaning wounds by means of a highly focused high-pressure micro water jet. The disposable nozzle comprises a cylindrical nozzle body having a centrally traversing orifice body duct, which is laterally closed, as well as a cylindrical orifice with a centrally traversing orifice duct. The orifice is disposed in a recess that is centrally arranged in the frontal terminal region of the nozzle body at the front side in such a manner that both ducts adjoin to each other in a coaxial manner. An O-ring is disposed in the recess between the nozzle body and the orifice in a clamping manner, wherein the O-ring centrally retains the orifice in the nozzle body.
