Patent number: 11035480Abstract: A sequencing manifold for the purpose of supplying control and supply services of pre-determined temporal sequences to fluid processing assemblies is provided. The functioning of this sequencing manifold requires that translation be applied to the sequencing ports. Actuator mechanisms may supply such translation as either continuous motion or as a series of stepwise motions. Actuator mechanism can be obtained that rely on only mechanical means without the need for a source of electricity. With such actuators, it becomes feasible to conduct the operations of fluid processing assemblies in remote and primitive locations that lack a source of electricity. One skilled in the mechanical arts can provide various actuator mechanisms to meet these requirements.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2017Date of Patent: June 15, 2021Assignee: Leanna Levine and Aline, Inc.Inventors: Leanna M.

Patent number: 8303381Abstract: A clamping-type knife sharpener is designed with anti-rocking blade holding capability. The knife sharpener includes first and second clamping members and a clamping member adjustment mechanism configured to adjustably manipulate the clamping members into clamping engagement with a knife blade to be sharpened. The knife blade is maintained by the clamping members in orientation with a planar knife sharpener axis extending along a centerline of the knife blade that passes through an edge of the knife blade. First and second deformable clamping boots are respectively disposed on the first and second clamping members. The first and second clamping boots have respective first and second clamping faces adapted to engage the knife blade when the clamping members are in the clamping engagement with the knife blade. At least one of the clamping faces has a blade-conforming contour that substantially conforms to a surface contour of the knife blade and restrains the knife blade against rocking during sharpening.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2010Date of Patent: November 6, 2012Assignee: Arthur Lansky Levine & AssociatesInventor: Edward A. Schwartz

Publication number: 20010003390Abstract: As part of a method of producing a customized chart for use with chart recorder apparatus, a user desiring the customized chart is provided with a list of questions including, for example, the size of the chart; the graduations of the chart with respect to a first chart dimension; and the graduations of the chart with respect to a second chart dimension. The questions are input to a software applications program operative to generate a datafile containing a graphical representation of the desired chart based upon the answers received. The datafile is delivered to a printing facility, where the chart is physically produced in accordance with the data file, then delivered to the user. One or more of the steps associated with the method may be carried out over a remote communications link such as a telephone to enhance convenience. For example, the step of inputting the answers may take place over a communications link from a remote location using phone lines and voice, modem or Internet protocols.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 23, 1998Publication date: June 14, 2001Applicant: LEVINEInventor: MATTHEW LEVINE

Patent number: 6127184Abstract: Formed constituents of a quiescent anticoagulated whole blood or other biologic fluid sample are optically analyzed by an optical scanning instrument. The sample is contained in a sample chamber that has a varying through plane thickness. The thickness of any fields of view in the blood sample which contain plasma lacunae can be calculated by the instrument as a function of signal emission strength emanating from the colored plasma in the lacunae. The signal emissions can be the result of sample fluorescence or can be the result of signal density emanating from the sample. Particle volumes can be measured as a function of signal emission suppression which is caused by formed particles in the blood sample.Type: GrantFiled: February 10, 1999Date of Patent: October 3, 2000Assignees: Robert A. Levine, Wardlaw Partners, LPInventor: Stephen C. Wardlaw

Patent number: 5889584Abstract: A sample of anticoagulated whole blood contained in a transparent tube is centrifuged so as to gravimetrically separate the various blood cell and other components by specific gravity. The tube may contain an insert or float which serves to elongate certain of the separated component layers. The various component layers may be periodically measured during the centrifugation step by a linear image dissector which can detect differential fluorescence in the several component layers. The blood component layers are caused to fluoresce by flashes of light which are directed toward the blood sample tube as the latter is being centrifuged. The gravimetric separation and quantification of blood sample constituent layers are thus both performed while the sample remains in the centrifuge.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 1997Date of Patent: March 30, 1999Assignee: Robert A. LevineInventor: Stephen C. Wardlaw

Patent number: 5888184Abstract: Centrifuged material layer volumes are measured and quantified during centrifugation of the material layers. The material layers are differentially highlighted, preferably by means of one or more fluorescent dyes or stains which are admixed with the sample being analyzed. This kinetic quantification procedure is particularly useful in performing differential blood cell and platelet counts. The blood sample is centrifuged while being subjected to a strobed light source. At least one photometric cell layer compaction measurement is made in conjunction with the light flashes so as to record a degree of cell layer compaction as the sample is being centrifuged. In certain cases, after several successive cell layer compaction readings are derived, a compaction curve is identified and the ultimate degree of cell layer compaction is calculated from the derived compaction curve prior to the achievement of the ultimate degree of cell layer compaction.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 1997Date of Patent: March 30, 1999Assignee: Robert A.
