  • Publication number: 20250101603
    Abstract: A system and method for continuous batch monitoring of key quality characteristics of the production of precisely targeted FAC, optimally HOCl, through use of pressure, temperature, pH, ORP, tonicity sensors and spectroscopy instruments measuring the dynamic averages of product in a circulating vessel that informs the input production system through a dynamic feedback loop to make corrective formulations of key characteristics such that corrections occur to the constantly monitored HOCl solution in order to meet verified quality standard at the storage vessel's point of dispensing.

  • Patent number: 9599438
    Abstract: A removable rail for mounting over an AK iron sight assembly of an AK type rifle includes a pair of brackets that fit outer side surfaces of an AK iron sight assembly. At least one pressure clamp is disposed on a side of at least one bracket of the pair of brackets. When the pressure clamp is in an open position, the pair of brackets can be slid over the AK iron sight assembly for mounting or for removal. When the pressure clamp is in a closed position, the pair of brackets are held in a non-moving engagement with the outer side surfaces of the AK iron sight assembly. A fixed AK rail, another type of AK rail, and a method for adding a small arms accessory rail system to an AK rifle by mounting a rail over an AK iron sight assembly are also described.
