Patent number: 6530895Abstract: An apparatus for oxygenating a liquid, including a liquid pump, supply piping having an inlet connected to the pump and an outlet, first and second injectors and a chamber. The first injector has a liquid inlet forming a nozzle, a liquid outlet and an oxygen inlet, the first injector oxygen inlet intermediate the first injector liquid inlet and outlet, the supply piping outlet connected to the first injector liquid inlet. The second injector has a liquid inlet forming a nozzle, a liquid outlet and an oxygen inlet, the second injector oxygen inlet intermediate the second injector liquid inlet and outlet, the first injector liquid outlet in communication with the second injector liquid inlet, whereby liquid flows through the first and second injectors in series, each of the first and second injector oxygen inlets provided with a source of oxygen gas.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2000Date of Patent: March 11, 2003Assignee: Life International Products, Inc.Inventor: William S. Keirn

Patent number: 6279882Abstract: An apparatus and process for oxygenating a liquid. The apparatus includes a liquid pump fluidly connected to an injector having a liquid inlet forming a nozzle, a liquid outlet and an oxygen inlet therebetween, the injector arranged such that the injector liquid inlet is above the injector liquid outlet, and a downwardly opening first diffuser portion connected to the injector outlet. The first diffuser portion is serially connected to a second diffuser portion located below the first diffuser portion. Liquid being pumped by the pump is conducted downwardly through the injector and the first diffuser portion to the second diffuser portion.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2000Date of Patent: August 28, 2001Assignee: Life International Products, Inc.Inventors: Howard Littman, Kent L. Peterson

Patent number: 5904851Abstract: A process for enriching water with oxygen, wherein water is conducted through a water inlet into a sealed enriching space and through one or more turbulent mixers in the enriching space, open is introduced through an oxygen inlet into the water in the enriching space before passing through the turbulent mixer, and the oxygen-enriched water is recovered. The invention further includes an aerobic process by carrying out a chemical or microbiological reaction in the oxygen enriched water as the reaction medium, and a therapeutic process of carrying out a therapeutic treatment of a body with an agent containing the oxygen enriched liquid as a vehicle. The invention also concerns as apparatus for enriching water with oxygen, having a water inlet, a sealed enriching space containing an oxygen inlet, and one or more turbulent mixers, and an outlet for oxygenated water.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 1998Date of Patent: May 18, 1999Assignee: Life International Products, Inc.Inventors: Darrell L. Taylor, Frank Abramoff

Patent number: 5814222Abstract: A process for enriching a liquid with oxygen by introducing the liquid into an oxygen enriching vessel, subdividing the liquid, subjecting the interior of the vessel to an oxygen pressure of at least about 20 psi, conducting the introduced water in a substantially flowing contact with the oxygen, and recovering the water under oxygen pressure when it is to be bottled. The process is carried out in oxygen enriching apparatus having an oxygen enriching vessel, a number of horizontal trays vertically spaced apart from each other and having a central opening, a liquid supply tube ranging into the interior of the enriching vessel through the central openings, means for discharging liquid from the tube onto a tray, an oxygen supply source for providing the oxygen to the vessel, and a liquid outlet for the removal of the oxygenated liquid. The liquids oxygenated by the invention are used in various aerobic and therapeutic processes.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 1995Date of Patent: September 29, 1998Assignee: Life International Products, Inc.Inventors: Zoltai Maria nae Zelenak, Laszlo Berzsenyi, Frank Abramoff
