  • Patent number: 6129800
    Abstract: An embossed metal foil laminate is prepared by laminating a metal foil to a paper web, utilizing an extrusion coated resin interlayer therebetween, by passing the layered structure between a nip roll and an engraved chill roll. The metal foil quickly conducts heat energy from the molten resin layer to the chill roll, allowing the process to be run at a high speed. The engraved chill roll impresses a pattern into the metal foil during the lamination operation.

  • Patent number: 6129895
    Abstract: An oxygenate additive analyzer is provided which detects and determines the presence of oxygen enhancing additives in gasoline or other fuels. The oxygenate additive analyzer includes a portable electronic controller with a fuel cell connected to the controller by a ribbon cable. In operation, a sample of the fuel to be tested is placed in the fuel cell and electrical control signals are transmitted between the controller and the fuel cell. The analyzer measures the direct current conductivity, resonant frequency, and temperature, and such data is analyzed on the unique software system in the microprocessor of the controller. Upon the completion of the fuel analysis, the controller displays the percentage, if any, of added oxygen by weight, lists probable oxygenates as a percentage of volume, and shows the temperature of the fuel sample. The analyzer is a portable unit with a battery power supply.

  • Patent number: 6053894
    Abstract: A hypodermic syringe is disclosed wherein the medicine in the outlet tube leading to the hollow needle is caused to be injected into the patient. The expulsion of the fluid medicine from the outlet tube of the syringe is accomplished by an auxiliary piston which is normally carried by a primary piston. The mechanism used to force movement of the primary piston continues to drive an auxiliary piston, after the primary piston is stopped, to effectively force fluid medicine out of the outlet tube. Thereby, the amount of fluid medicine which may be discarded will lessen considerably.
