Patents by Inventor Aniruddha B. Pandit

Aniruddha B. Pandit has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7671113
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for the manufacture of nanoscale particles of Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR). As SBR particles are elastic in nature, conventional methods of size reductions such as impacting, grinding are unable to achieve the final size. The present invention successfully achieves size reduction of the elastic material to nano scale by carefully controlled hydrodynamic cavitation techniques.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 4799862
    Abstract: A rotating impeller for stirring liquids contained in tanks. Strip-like blades of simple form radiate from a central hub, in swept-back configuration relative to the direction of rotation. The blades are angled relative to the hub so as to exert a forward and downward force upon the liquid as the impeller rotates, and the blade curvature is such that the area projected upon the liquid by the solid structure of the rotating blade is less than the corresponding area that would be projected by an otherwise similar blade in which imaginary straight lines connected all adjacent vertices, and any void areas lying within the boundaries of those imaginary lines had been filled in. The preferred arrangement of the blades is such that when the impeller is arranged with its axis vertical, curvature of each blade along its length is such that it extends away from the hub in a diminishing downward curve, reaches a lowest point, and then rises again before the blade tip is reached.
