Abstract: The invention describes a method and a walk through apparatus to treat surfaces with hydroxyl ions to reduce the viability and/or kill pathogens.

Abstract: A system and method for scanning carriers for objects include the capability to sense a radioactive object in the detection proximity of a platform and form a signal indicative thereof and to determine whether an illicit radioactive object may be in the detection proximity. The system and method also include the capability to sense a metallic object in the detection proximity of the platform and form a signal indicative thereof and to determine whether an illicit metallic object may be in the detection proximity.

Abstract: A thermal shock insert or adaptor is used with an environmental chamber to provide a facility for conducting thermal shock testing. The thermal shock adaptor has a cabinet defining an interior specimen chamber. A chamber opening is provided through the cabinet and a specimen platform which is movable relative to the cabinet is provided to receive and support a test specimen and to move the specimen through the chamber opening, between a first position in which the specimen is contained within the specimen chamber and a second position in which the specimen is contained within the environmental chamber with which the thermal shock adaptor is used. The thermal shock adaptor is also provided with a high temperature plenum, heating coils, and a high temperature controller, all operatively connected with the specimen chamber to maintain the specimen chamber at a selected temperature in accordance with predetermined specifications.

Abstract: A handrail assembly for the erection or a temporary handrail designed for a toddler or young child including a set of elongate rail members which can be connected end-to-end to provide a handrail member of the desired length. Two or more elongate hanging devices are used to mount the handrail member below another handrail. Each of these devices is capable of being mounted at one end thereof to a wall at a location which is a mounting point for the other handrail. Preferably each hanging device has a support bracket attached to its bottom end, which bracket is connectable to the handrail.

Abstract: A hydrostatic vehicle drive system having a closed loop front wheel drive circuit and a closed loop rear wheel drive circuit with bi-directional pressure compensating crossover flow between the two closed loop circuits. Another hydrostatic circuit for driving auxiliary equipment also operates as a source of pressurized fluid for charging the wheel drive circuits. The auxiliary hydrostatic circuit includes priority flow to the auxiliary equipment and a flow control with pressure relief means to maintain a constant charging pressure and a predetermined fluid flow for operating the braking circuit as well as charging the wheel drive circuits.
