Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and electrolytic cell for making hypochlorous acid (HClO) by electrolysis of an aqueous chloride solution circulating through a generally closed-loop system. The electrolytic cell includes a first electrode comprising a plurality of first wires which are generally spaced from each other, and a second electrode comprising a plurality of second wires generally spaced from each other. The first wires are juxtaposed with the second wires so as to form a passageway for enabling the flow of the chloride solution therebetween. The two electrodes are carried within a housing which includes an inlet opening and an outlet opening coupled to a conduit and spaced on the housing for guiding the flow of the chloride solution over the electrodes. Electronics are provided for impressing an electrical potential of opposing polarity onto the first and second electrodes, thereby enabling the electrolysis of the chloride solution therebetween.

Abstract: A plumbing fixture with an integral strainer is provided for separating solids and other foreign bodies from a liquid flowing through a pipe. A generally T-shaped conduit section is provided having at least three portals including an input and an output portal for being operably interposed along the pipe for passing the fluid therethrough. The conduit also includes an access portal and a removable closure coupled thereto for allowing external access to within the conduit. A strainer is provided within the conduit and generally adjacent to the access portal for separating solids from the liquid flowing therethrough. The strainer is typically positioned above the access portal for allowing gravitational displacement of the solids toward the access portal after the liquid flow pressure has subsided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a dynamo-electric machine which includes a plurality of permanent magnets arranged sequentially with like poles adjacent and spaced from each other by a plurality of spacers of magnetically soft material. Motive coils are located generally adjacent to the permanent magnets so that when energized one pole of the induced magnetic field will provide attractive forces toward one of the permanent magnets while the opposite pole of the induced magnetic field will produce repulsion forces from the like pole of the adjacent permanent magnet. A commutator device is provided for properly energizing selected ones of the motive coils in proper polarity. A plurality of generator coils are located adjacent to the permanent magnets for cutting the magnetic lines of flux emanating therefrom so as to generate an induced voltage at an output thereof responsive to the relative motion between the generator coils and the permanent magnets.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a doorstop specifically adapted to be attached to the wing of an aircraft in a position for communicating with and limiting the opening arc of a door of the aircraft. The doorstop includes a base for coupling to the wing of the aircraft and an upstanding blade having one end coupled to the base and a second end distending therefrom. The smallest width dimension of the blade is oriented perpendicular to the chord of the aircraft wing. A resilient buffer is coupled to the second end of the upstanding blade so as to communicate with and limit the opening arc of the aircraft door.
